ID Code: I1-13
Purpose: Demonstrates differential thermal expansion
Description: Strips of invar steel and brass are welded together to form a bimetal strip. Because their coefficients of thermal expansion are different, heating the bimetal strip over a burner results in bending, as illustrated. This type of material is used in some types of thermostatic controllers.
Availability: Available
