Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A measurement mechanism having a body, a vacuum chamber that is located on the body and in which a measurement process is performed is disclosed. A first sample and a second sample between which a heat transfer occurs are placed in the vacuum chamber and contact each other. A piston that provides the first sample and the second sample to continuously contact each other, a main heater that is located above the first sample and the second sample, and a cooler located below the first sample and the second sample is also disclosed.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A measurement mechanism ( 1 ) comprising: a vacuum chamber ( 3 ) in which a measurement process is performed; a first sample ( 4 ) and a second sample ( 5 ) between which a heat transfer occurs and which are placed in the vacuum chamber ( 3 ) and contact each other; a piston ( 6 ) coupled to the vacuum chamber ( 3 ) which causes the first sample ( 4 ) and the second sample ( 5 ) to continuously contact each other; a main heater ( 7 ) which is located above the first sample ( 4 ); and a cooler ( 8 ) which is located below the second sample ( 5 ); at least one wall ( 9 ) located above the cooler ( 8 ) and partially surrounding the first sample ( 4 ) and the second sample ( 5 ); and at least one heater ( 10 ), which is a heat tape ( 11 ) and which is located on the wall ( 9 ), and which prevents heat dissipation through the first sample ( 4 ) and the second sample ( 5 ). 2. The measurement mechanism ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one wall ( 9 ) is in thermal contact with the cooler ( 8 ). 3. The measurement mechanism ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein an end of the at least one wall ( 9 ) is not in contact with the cooler ( 8 ) and wherein the heat tape ( 11 ) is located at the end of the at least one wall ( 9 ) which is not in contact with the cooler ( 8 ). 4. The measurement mechanism ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one wall ( 9 ) is made of a conductive material.
