Thermal Impedance V.S Pressure Test Illustration
Thermal Impedance V.S Pressure TestThis is the measure of the total resistance to the flow of heat from a hot surface through an interface material into a cold surface. Thermal impedance is measured according to the ASTM D5470 test method. Although the current version of this method is specific to high durometer insulating pad materials tested at high clamping forces, the method has been successfully adapted for use with low durometer materials as well as fluid compounds.
Thermal impedance can be measured using ASTM D5470 at several clamping forces to generate a pressure versus thermal impedance plot as shown in Figure 1. This type of data can be used to generate information about the ability of a material to conform to surfaces to minimize contact resistance. Care must be taken with this type of data because contact resistance is also highly influenced by surface characteristics. To minimize the impact of test equipment variations, this type of work is best performed with the same test surfaces for all materials being tested.
