Problem 1-1To measure heat distribution

Thermocouples

- Several thermocouplesand Power source required

- Need times to preparespecial jig to set upthermocouples

- Contact condition ischanged by thickness ofattached thermocouples

Powersource

If use Thermoscale-Easy operationNo power source requiredCut and fit any dimensions

-Time savingNo special jig required

-Similar to contact conditionFlat and thin film
