Experiment with Water and Ice
We have put 1 liter of pure water and ice prepared from 1 liter of clean tap
water into the device. We expected that 8 minutes is enough time to warm up
and melt the ice, but we were wrong. For better visibility in the photos we
used few grains of KMnO4. During the first minute was the temperature
on the two bottom sensors raising similar to clean tap water. As we have
mentioned, eight minutes was not enough time to melt the ice. Maybe it would
be different if we melted the ice and the water during the experiment, but
the goal was to observe the experiment without measurable external
influences. There is also a screenshot
where you can see the entire course of experiment.
