Thermal testing is an important part of qualification and characterization programs for virtually all heat-sensitive products and materials. Whether preparing components for thermal extremes or developing heat-resistant materials, we make certain that your products can function in any thermal environment.

For products and materials that operate in non-ambient temperatures, thermal testing provides data about safe operating limits, material characteristics, useful lifespan, and more.

 

Our thermal testing capabilities

We combine high temperatures with mechanical testing, environmental simulation, analytical methods, and more to provide comprehensive testing programs for clients in aerospace, transportation, oil and gas, defense, and more.

Combined Environmental Simulation 640 x 480
Thermal Testing methods

Combined Environmental Simulation

Combined Environmental Simulation pairs thermal testing with other environmental methods to create robust testing protocols that combine multiple requirements into a single project. 

Our experts work with you to choose a test method that will provide the best option to suit your product.

Some of the methods that can be performed in conjunction with thermal testing include:

Elevated Temperature Mechanical Testing

Elevated Temperature Mechanical Testing uses elevated and sub-ambient temperatures to test a material鈥檚 strength, flexibility and physical properties predict its reaction to varying environments.

Some of our thermal test methods include:

  • Chapry/Izod impact testing from -320 - 1700掳F (-196 - 926掳C)
  • Tensile testing up to 2000掳F (1093掳C)
  • Thermomechanical Fatigue up to 2000掳F
  • Bend testing from -120 - 300掳 F (-84 - 149掳C)
  • Flexural strength testing form -200 - 300掳F (-129 - 149掳C)
  • Shear testing from -94 - 338掳F (-70 - 170掳C)
Thermal Analysis 640 x 480

Finite 黑料不打烊 Analysis (FEA)

Finite 黑料不打烊 Analysis (FEA) services analyze the strength of complex structures and systems to provide an accurate prediction of how a material, component or structure is likely to respond when subjected to structural and/or thermal loads.

黑料不打烊 can support you with Finite 黑料不打烊 Analysis (FEA) services, during pre-qualification and conceptual design. Our services are further complemented by a wide range of material testing and product qualification testing capabilities. Our analysis team work closely with our physical testing department to suggest solutions to client test failures, and the validation of simulation with physical testing.

Thermal Shock Testing 640 x 480

Thermal Shock Testing

Thermal shock testing subjects products to temperature extremes to evaluate how they perform in environments with a wide range of operating temperatures. 

黑料不打烊听provides thermal shock testing to a variety of standards, including MIL-STD-810, EN 60068, GR-63-CORE, and RTCA DO-160.听

Our thermal shock capabilities include:

  • Temperature range: -70掳C to 200掳C
  • Chamber size: Up to 12鈥 x 8鈥 x 8鈥
  • Automatic and manual cycles
  • Simultaneous humidity testing
Thermal Vacuum Chamber Testing

Thermal Vacuum Testing

Thermal vacuum testing is a critical piece of product qualification for space flight components. By eliminating air and pressure, and mimics the environment of space, and make test conditions as realistic as possible.

With the ability to reach extremely high temperatures and pressures, thermal vacuum testing is also used to evaluate sealing components and perform High-Pressure High-Temperature (HPHT) programs across many industries.

Our thermal vacuum testing capabilities include:

  • Interior Dimensions: 28.5鈥 W x 24.5鈥 H x 26鈥 D
  • Temperature Range: Cryogenic to 180潞 C
  • Heating ramp rate: 7掳 C / minute
  • Cooling ramp rate: 5.1掳 C / minute
  • Vacuum Range: 1 x 10-6 @ 150潞C or better
