Self-calibrating foil heat flux sensor with thermal spreaders and heater

A next-level sensor from the world market leader in heat flux measurement, FHF02SC is a combination of our model FHF02 heat flux sensor and a heater. The heater allows the user to perform self-tests, verifying sensor functionality and stability, during use, without having to remove the sensor. FHF02SC is ideal for high-accuracy and long-term heat flux measurement, construction of calorimeters, (zero heat flux) core temperature measurement and thermal conductivity test equipment.

Description

FHF02SC Self-calibrating foil heat flux sensor with thermal spreaders and heater

A next-level sensor for general-purpose heat flux measurement

FHF02SC is a sensor for general-purpose heat flux measurement, combined with a heater. It is used when the highest level of quality assurance is required and for special experiments. The FHF02SC thermopile sensor measures heat flux (W/m²) through the object in which it is incorporated or on which it is mounted. Additionally the integrated type T thermocouple allows for temperature measurements. Both the thermopile and thermocouple are passive sensors; they do not require power. The combination of a heat flux sensor with a heater allows the user not only to measure a heat flux, but also to apply a heat flux.

A next-level sensor from the world market leader in heat flux measurement

Using FHF02SC is easy

Using FHF02SC’s heat flux sensor is easy. It can be connected directly to commonly used data logging systems. The heat flux sensor output is a voltage signal that is proportional to the heat flux through the sensor: the heat flux in W/m² is calculated by dividing the sensor output, a small voltage, by the sensitivity. The sensitivity is provided with FHF02SC on its product certificate.

Suggested use

  • high-accuracy scientific measurement of heat flux, with a high level of data quality assurance
  • study of convective heat transfer mechanisms
  • calorimeter prototyping
  • (zero heat flux) non-invasive core temperature measurement
  • thermal conductivity test equipment
