Thermal-mechanical testing
Empirically verifying designs’ powers, temperatures, flow rates and structural integrity in simulated real world environments
See below for images of our team of engineers and technicians verifying the thermal-mechancial performance of our OHP and cold-plate products. Or contact us to learn more about our design, engineering and analytical capabilities.
Testing services
Dozens of thermal test stations (DAQs for temperature, pressure, and flow recording; programmable power supplies; resistance heaters; cold plates with programmable cooling baths)
Heat pipe life testing stands
Two thermoelectric characterization stands
Three thermal vacuum test chambers (two bell jar stands, one 23” tall vacuum box)
One closed-loop wind tunnel for 200 m/s airflow thermal-aerodynamic testing
One electronics cooling air flow bench (AMS 1200 cfm)
Three variable 1-g tilt tables with integral cold plates and test heaters
Two hydrostatic pressure test stands for proof and burst pressure testing to 4,000 psig
One thermal-imaging 60 Hz, infrared camera
One metallography station (digital stereo microscope, wet saw + polisher, and potting stand)
High temperature “liquid metal” OHP test stand
Complete ISO9001/AS9100D quality assurance department with digital height gauges, optical scanners, profilometers, and other calibrated measurement equipment
And much more (oscilloscopes, signal generators, multimeters, counters, etc.)
Note: For material-fluid chemical certifications and military-standard environmental testing, ThermAvant Tech outsources shock/vibe, thermal-cycling, accelerated aging, etc. to qualified third-party vendors within the U.S.A.
