Combustion chamber
A device for demonstrating adiabatic compression: cotton wool is ignited by rapid compression of air in a cylinder.
Thermodynamics demonstration device with 8 components: cylinder with cap, piston with rod, handle, base, O-ring, lubricant and cotton swab. Designed for 3 demonstrations: an increase in air temperature during rapid adiabatic compression in a closed volume, the conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy with the ignition of cotton wool, and an increase in the internal energy of a gas when work is done on it as an illustration of the first law of thermodynamics.
