Climatic Testing |
|
|
|
| Modern sophisticated equipment is often required, not only to survive, but to operate to a defined standard under adverse climatic conditions. These include extremes of temperature, altitude, humidity, salt mist, solar radiation, mould growth, sand and dust. It is necessary to simulate these conditions in the laboratory by means of test chambers in order to demonstrate the survival capability and reliability of the equipment.

This course
provides an introduction to Climatic Testing with emphasis on the practical aspects of the subject. It includes the principles of operation of climatic chambers, their construction, methods of heating, cooling and humidification. Instrumentation for measurement and recording of conditions within the test chamber will be considered and the options available for temperature and humidity control will be discussed. |
|
Organised in conjunction with the Society of Environmental Engineers,
the Course is intended to cater for test engineers who are working in environmental test laboratories or have recently been recruited from other branches of engineering. It will also be of benefit to those concerned with type approval test and reliability, development and stress screening. |
