    1. Objective The aim of this laboratory experiment is to analyse the rate of heat transfer losses through convection and radiation separately from a cylindrical glass rod suspended in a pressure vessel. The variation of the dimensionless quantities; Nusselt number‚ Prandtl number and Grashof Number‚ with Pressure are to be analysed graphically as well. The experimental graph of log10(Nu) vs log10(Gr.Pr) should be plotted and analysed against the graph of the empirical equations. 2. Introduction:
