Steam Cycling Furnace - Sir Henry Royce Institute

The University of Manchester plans to purchase a bespoke thermal cycling rig using water steam atmosphere at ambient pressure. The water vapour oxidation system needs to be able to test 18-24 off 25 mm by 25 mm test pieces at a time in a horizontal automated cyclic furnace with controlled water vapour (steam) in air environments. The high-temperature cycles are typically 1 hour at 1250°C-1350°C followed by 30 min cooling in air. The system should be capable of recording the key parameters of the test and monitori...
