Pre-Defined Methods for absolute thermal conductivity measurement
Pre-Defined Methods make sure, that you check the instrument, like NETZSCH checked the instrumentEvery delivered NETZSCH GHP comes with a set of “Pre-defined Methods”. It is forseen to check the functionality of a GHP in it’s temperature range with a set of reference materials, because you need to ensure the reliability and international comparability. Those checks are pre-definded as a measurement method and can easily be started by one mouseclick.

Wizards
The Wizards allow to easily define a absolute thermal conductivity measurement. You can enter the header-data easily, choose the type of cooling and change the cooling settings. The atmosphere and corresponding flow-rate makes sure, that the measurments are carried out under defined conditions and without the influence of condensation. We define every setpoint by:- Mean Temperature
- Temperature-Gradient
- Heating Rate
- Type of Cooling
- Time Limit (time, when the setpoint will be skipped if steady-state is not reached)

Measurement
The tab “Measurement” gives you a total overview over the defined absolute thermal conductivity measurement. During the measurment, you can check the actual stability, all signals, plate temperatures and Lambda, the sensors, the heating and cooling power and the final results.
Monitoring and Diagnosis – another big benefit
In the tab “Sensors” you see the total overview on all temperature sensors on the plates. The requirements of the standards are very strict in terms of homogenity of the temperature distribution. All installed sensors are from one lot and every single sensor has it’s own calibration. For every customer we stock spare-sensors from the same lot, because we want to provide you the best possible sustainability.

Results
In the “Results” tab you get every information that you need:- mean-temperature
- delta temperature
- thermal conductivity (Lambda)
- standard devition of thermal condictivity
- combined uncertainty of thermal conductivity (see publication from Schindler et al.)
- thermal resistance
- standard deviation of thermal resistance
- uncertainty of thermal resistance
- duration of measurement

Report Generator – in the end you need documentation
Due to requirements in the standards ASTM C177 and ISO 8301, you need to document the results. No one wants to write report after reaching the final result, manually. Therefore NETZSCH included a report generator in the software. By clicking of “Report” you can create a simple report as a word-document. Above all you can choose also an extended report as an excel-file. In contrast to the simple word file, it provides you every single detail of the measurement.

Thermal Resistance Tester, to determine the thermal resistance, thermal conductivity, and CLO value of various fabrics, quilting products, and other heat insulation materials. It might provide you with some help.
