SEK Heat

Set of equipment for carrying out 22 student experiments on thermodynamics and heat. Comes with comprehensive student and instructor experiment manuals and instructions. In a tough plastic tray containing a foam insert with cut-outs for the equipment and featuring a transparent lid. Experiments are set up and performed on the SEK Base Plate 1000789 (U8408035) so that they are compact but still clear in their layout and objectives.
