Thermal cycling apparatus for thermomechanical fatigue testing

A thermal cycling apparatus for fatigue testing is described. The sample is indirectly heated and cooled in order to allow direct observation and eliminate surface‐to‐bulk temperature gradients. Short‐time constant heaters and coolers are described along with a method of waveform generation which ta...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A thermal cycling apparatus for fatigue testing is described. The sample is indirectly heated and cooled in order to allow direct observation and eliminate surface‐to‐bulk temperature gradients. Short‐time constant heaters and coolers are described along with a method of waveform generation which takes the system’s thermal response into account.
