Detailed Description
Dilatometry measures dimensional changes in a material as a function of temperature in a controlled atmosphere. This allows for the obtaining of the coefficient of thermal expansion of a material. The vertical push-rod design benefits from no friction on expansion, with guaranteed push-rod contact. Both dilatometers at the UKAEA-MRF are dual push-rod systems, which allow for direct comparison of a sample with unknown thermal properties to a well characterised reference sample, and both are subjected to exactly the same environment. The two separate instruments have furnaces for operation at -100-500°C and RT- 2000°C. These are fully automated and can be controlled remotely.
