For demonstration of differences in the thermal conductivity of five different metal – brass,
copper, aluminium, mild steel and stainless steel.
These 5 metal rods spread radially outward, equally spaced on each side of hexagonal brass
hub, and have a small recess at the other end for holding paraffin wax.
The sixth side of brass hub has a metal rod terminating in an insulating handle.
On heating the central hub, the wax contained in the cavities of different metals melts at
different times, implying their different thermal conductivities.
