GUNT Heat conduction is one of the three basic forms of heat transfer. According to the second law of thermodynamics, heat always transfers from higher to lower energy levels. When a body’s temperature remains constant despite continuous heat input or removal, steady-state heat conduction is achieved. The GUNT trainer offers fundamental experiments to study heat conduction through various metals using multiple specimens.
