Simulate temperature distribution using FEM analysis

When developing customer-specific heaters, designs can be put through their paces in theory in advance with the help of SolidWorks®. At every stage of development, this allows the temperature distribution on components to be simulated so that the designer can ensure that the desired temperature ranges are also achieved under realistic conditions. Further FEM calculations or strength calculations under the effect of temperature are also possible to ensure product safety.

About ThermoExpert

Thanks to many years of experience and know-how coupled with the application of the latest technologies, the ThermoExperts can meet unique customer requirements for production processes with perfectly dosed temperature in conceivable environments. In doing so, they develop each customized heating solution in several stages: starting with the technical drawing and a detailed 3D model, through an FEM simulation to the prototype. Finally, the desired application is manufactured, delivered and, if necessary, installed. Customer satisfaction speaks volumes ...

Thermal imaging camera detects hot spots and cold spots of the heating application

April 18, 2016 No comments

Whenever high measurement accuracy of the temperature distribution is required, a thermal imaging camera is used - because the development of individual heating applications is often a matter of millimeters and milliseconds. Complementing the FEM analysis, the thermal imaging camera can be used not only to simulate the temperature distribution, but also to map it in real time. The temperature of metal surfaces can thus be measured precisely without contact in the temperature range from 450°C to 1,800°C. The measurement accuracy is ±2 %.

Sheath thermocouples with tapered measuring point

October 2, 2015 No comments

Mineral-insulated thermocouples with tapered measuring point are our answer to the question of short response times but stable and resilient processing or if, for example, threaded holes require a taper due to their design. Only one end of the thermocouple including the measuring point is reduced in diameter, so that it remains extremely robust overall and can be ideally inserted into bores or threads by means of welding sleeves or through-bolts.

Miniature sheathed thermocouples type K

October 2, 2015 No comments

To be honest, we are really proud of our "smallest"; namely our miniature sheath thermocouples with an outer diameter smaller than 0.5 mm. They are mainly used where very fast response times with very thin outer diameters are required, such as for temperature measurement of spark plugs or engine test benches. When vibrations and similar mechanical stresses prevent the use of resistance thermometers, the miniature mineral-insulated thermocouples are also the ideal solution.

Typical application examples for mineral-insulated thermocouples

August 21, 2023 No comments

Sheathed thermocouples, also known as sheathed thermocouples, are used in various industries and applications where precise temperature measurements are required. This type of thermocouple consists of two different metallic conductors that are connected together at one end and open at their other end. The open ends are placed at the location where the temperature is to be measured. ThermoExpert° Deutschland GmbH, with its managing directors Heiko Gevert and Andreas Helf, has been a partner of all these industries and of research for many years. The range of applications for thermocouples is almost unlimited - and so is the wealth of ideas for getting customers where they want to go.

Perfect teamwork

June 13, 2023 No comments

Finding qualified employees is definitely a challenge. Unfortunately, our industry is no exception. We are therefore all the happier that we were able to recruit a new colleague from Syria for our team despite a number of hurdles. The hurdles were both for the new colleague, whose degree in metrology was not recognized by German authorities, and for us, because we also had to deal with several piles of small-print paper as an employer.

At the end of the day, however, we have gained a valuable, committed new employee for our international team. We tend to see different cultures as an enrichment, and as an employer we also make it possible to live them.

Sheath thermocouple or PT 100 - a comparison and overview of the differences

March 28, 2023 No comments

To measure temperatures accurately, reproducibly and with long-term stability, platinum resistance thermometers (PT100) can be used in addition to mineral-insulated thermocouples. To make the right choice, it is important to check which requirements you have for accuracy, long-term stability and the temperature range, as well as which environmental conditions exist. ThermoExpert GmbH has been advising its customers for over 10 years and finds a technical solution for every challenge. We would be happy to advise you as well - contact us at any time, e.g. also via our chat function on the website thermoexpert.de
