Innovative Test Solutions has several furnaces which are designed to do cyclic testing at elevated temperatures up to 3,100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Most often, the materials being tested, such as thermal barrier coatings (TBC), are 1-inch in diameter and not more than a quarter-of-an-inch thick.
Once properly tested, these coatings will be used to insulate components found in gas turbines and aeroengine parts.
What is Furnace Cycle Testing?
Typically, a furnace cycle test consists of a temperature ramp, dwell at a consistent temperature for a specified time, then force cooled air to complete the cycle duration. The process is repeated for the desired number of cycles to complete the test.
For thermal exposure testing, these furnaces can test the desired specimen within the temperatures stated above for the necessary dwell time.
