• Definition (ICTAC):
Thermal analysis (TA) is a group of techniques in
which changes of physical or chemical properties of
the sample are monitored against time or
temperature, while the temperature of the sample is
programmed.

Heat Conduction
Conduction is heat transfer by means of molecular agitation
within a material without any motion of the material as a whole. If
one end of a metal rod is at a higher temperature, then energy
will be transferred down the rod toward the colder end because
the higher speed particles will collide with the slower ones with a
net transfer of energy to the slower ones. For heat transfer
between two plane surfaces, such as heat loss through the wall
of a house, the rate of conduction heat transfer is:
Thermodynamics
Heat Convection
Convection is heat transfer by mass motion of a fluid such as air or
water when the heated fluid is caused to move away from the source
of heat, carrying energy with it. Convection above a hot surface
occurs because hot air expands, becomes less dense, and rises.
Hot water is likewise less dense than cold water and rises, causing
convection currents which transport energy.
Thermodynamics
Heat Radiation
Radiation is heat transfer by the emission of electromagnetic waves
which carry energy away from the emitting object. For ordinary
temperatures (less than “red hot"), the radiation is in the infrared
region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The relationship governing
radiation from hot objects is called the Stefan Boltzmann law:

Furnaces: characteristics of heaters
Nickel-Chromium Alloys
Nickel-chromium alloys are the most
common class of resistance heater
materials. Various formulations,
which can include iron, aluminum and
silicon, show useable element
temperatures up to some 1400 °C.
Change in resistance from room
temperature over the working range
is only some 4 to 6%. It also changes
very little during service life.
Silicon Carbide
This class of materials has a
permissible element temperature
close to 1600 °C. The control system
has to cope with resistance changes
of up to about 3:1 over the working
temperature range and some 4:1
over the useful life of the element

Molybdenum Disilicide
Heaters. In the figure you can
see there is a resistance change
of some 14:1 over the working
temperature range -- much more
than silicon carbide but subject
to only small changes with
service life.
Tungsten Heaters. The
resistance change over the
working range is about 17:1.
Aging effects are negligible.
Current limiting is inherent in the
resistance attained at working
temperature.
