Laser Flash TC 7000 Thermal Conductivity/ Thermal Diffusivity/ Specific Heat

Information of the thermo physical properties of materials and heat transfer optimization of final products is becoming more and more vital for industrial applications. Over the past few decades, the flash method has developed into the most commonly used technique for the measurement of the thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity of various kinds of solids, powders and liquids. Using this modus operandi, the front side of a small, usually disk-shaped plane-parallel sample is heated by a short energy (laser) pulse. The temperature rise on the rear surface is measured versus time using an infrared detector. Trouble-free sample preparation, small required sample dimensions, fast measurement times and high accuracy are only a few of the advantages of this non-contact and non-destructive measurement technique.

The TC 7000 Laser Flash system makes the difference in research and development and quality control of high-tech materials. The system uses the widely accepted Laser Flash method to measure three thermal constants: thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and specific heat. More than 300 laser thermal constants measuring units have been installed around the world. The TC 7000 has the latest technology to meet the increasingly diversified needs for thermal measurement.
