Thermal conductivity scanner (TCScan)

Description

Measures thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity with infrared optical scanning. One-time measurements, carried out without contact and along scanning axes, make it possible to evaluate the distribution of thermal properties and quantify heterogeneity.

Technical specifications

Thermal conductivity: 0.2 – 25.0 W/m-K ; Thermal diffusion: 0.6 – 3.0 10-6 m2/s; Sample: flat surface with a minimum diameter of 1.5″
