    In order to cultivate top-notch talents, a experimental system for the course of Fluid Thermophysical Testing Techniques has been developed targeting undergraduate students in the Thermal Fluid International Class. The course includes four experiments: temperature and pressure measurement experiment, saturated vapor pressure measurement and critical phenomenon observation experiment, liquid density measurement experiment, and liquid motion viscosity measurement experiment. These experiments are derived from research experiments on thermophysical properties, with all experimental equipment independently developed. The course provides comprehensive pre-lab preparation, hands-on operation during the experiments, and post-lab analysis, offering a rich learning experience. The high level of student engagement is reflected in their active participation throughout the experimental process. Over the course of five years since its introduction, this experimental course has received consistent praise from students, demonstrating its effectiveness in cultivating outstanding talents.
