This apparatus is used for the Demonstration of the convection currents in air. Comprises a sheet metal box with open sliding glass front and two circular openings at the top for mounting glass chimneys. On the inner side, below each chimney, a candle holder is mounted. Air heated by a candle placed beneath one of the chimneys with glass door closed, causes the flow of convection currents, which can be observed by bringing a smoldering string near the top of other unheated chimney.
