Heat conduction in metals with WL 420
Operation, data acquisition and remote learning
Operation
- simple operation of the system via the software
- adjust operating parameters via respective button icons
- check and read off measured values
Geometric temperature curve
- representations of the temperature curves make it easier to understand the respective heat transfer mechanisms
Time dependency
- representation of the measured values as a function of time
- plot and log your own characteristics
- freely selectable form of presentation of the measured values:
measured values selection, resolution, colour, time intervals
Network capability
- full network access to ongoing experiments by any number of external workstations with GUNT software, via the customer's own network
- experiments can be independently followed and evaluated by students at all workstations when using a single training system
Remote learning set up
This video shows you how you can also use any GUNT device for remote learning.
