1、Designation: B 70 90 (Reapproved 2007)Standard Test Method forChange of Resistance With Temperature of MetallicMaterials for Electrical Heating1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 70; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the

2、 case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the changeof resistance with temperature

3、of metallic materials for elec-trical heating, and is applicable over the range of servicetemperatures.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,

4、if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to become familiarwith all hazards including those identified in the appropriateMaterial Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for this product/materialas provided by the manufacturer, to establish appropriatesafety and health

5、practices, and determine the applicability ofregulatory limitations prior to use.2. Significance and Use2.1 The change in resistance with temperature for heatingelement materials is a major design factor and may influencematerial selection. The measurement of this change is essentialto ensure that h

6、eating elements perform as designed. This testmethod was designed to minimize the effect different manu-facturing processes have on resistance change, thereby yieldingresults that are reproducible.3. Test Specimen and Leads3.1 The test specimen shall be prepared from material as leftby the manufactu

7、ring process, and in a form suitable formeasuring its resistance in an electric furnace. When theresistance is to be measured with a Kelvin bridge, potentiom-eter, digital ohmmeter, or equivalent, a current lead shall bewelded to each end of the specimen in such a manner that therewill be no change

8、of current distribution in the specimen duringmeasurements. Potential leads, one at each end, shall beattached by welding, at a distance from the correspondingcurrent lead not less than one tenth of the length of thespecimen between the potential leads.3.2 When the resistance is to be measured with

9、a Wheat-stone bridge, only the current leads are required. The resistanceof the leads in this case shall not exceed 1 % of the resistanceof the specimen and the leads shall be made of the same typeof alloy as the test specimen. For both methods of measure-ment, the leads shall have a length within t

10、he heated zone ofthe furnace of at least 50 times their minimum transversedimension, in order to avoid disturbance of the temperature ofthe specimen by conduction of heat to the colder parts of thefurnace.4. Electric Furnace4.1 The furnace for heating the specimen shall be of such atype that the tem

11、perature can be controlled over the range fromroom temperature to the maximum desired. It shall be soconstructed that the specimens and the thermocouples can bemaintained at a uniform and constant temperature at desiredpoints within the working range. The specimen and thermo-couples shall be so shie

12、lded as to prevent direct radiation fromhotter, or to colder, parts of the furnace.4.2 In order to test the uniformity of the temperature in theregion to be occupied by the test specimen, a typical specimenand thermocouple shall be prepared and mounted in the centerof this region. The furnace shall

13、then be heated to its maximumtemperature and maintained at this temperature until equilib-rium is reached. The specimen shall then be moved in thefurnace in the direction of the maximum temperature gradientthrough a distance equal to the maximum dimension of thelargest specimen and thermocouple asse

14、mbly which is to beused in this furnace. The temperature of the typical specimen inthis position shall not differ from that in the normal position bymore than 10C.5. Resistance Measurements5.1 A Kelvin bridge, potentiometer, digital ohmmeter, orequivalent shall be used when measuring specimens havin

15、gresistances less than 10 V . A Wheatstone bridge may be usedwith specimens having resistances greater than 10 V. Theresistance of the specimen shall be measured with an accuracyof 0.1 %. The measuring current shall be so small that the1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee B0

This condition may be determined experimentally orcalculated from the power expended and the surface of thespecimen.6. Test

18、Current6.1 To determine experimentally that the test current is nottoo large, bring the specimen to a temperature (Note 1) wherethere is a relatively large uniform change of resistance withtemperature. Apply the test current and maintain it until theresistance of the specimen has become constant. Th

19、en increasethe current by 40 % and maintain it at this value until theresistance has again become constant. If the change in resis-tance is greater than 0.1 %, the test current is too large and shallbe reduced until the foregoing limitations are reached.NOTE 1In the case of nickel-chromium alloy 400

20、C is a suitabletemperature.6.2 The test current has a negligible effect on the resistancemeasurement when the power lost in its passage through thespecimen is less than 0.01 W/cm2of the effective free surfaceof the specimen. For straight specimens and those which are socoiled or bent that the distan

21、ce between the adjacent convolu-tions is greater than five times the maximum transversedimension of the cross section of the specimen, consider thefree surface to be that surface area of the portion of thespecimen between the potential leads. When, as for the sake ofsaving space in the furnace, the

22、specimen is wound into a spiralor helix, or bent back and forth upon itself in such a mannerthat the distance between adjacent convolutions is less than fivetimes the maximum transverse dimension of the cross sectionof the specimen, consider the free surface to be that surfacearea of the cylindrical

23、 or prismatic volume enclosing the coiledor convoluted specimen. Calculate the power loss due to themeasuring current from the following equation:W 5 I2Rmwhere:W = power loss, W,I = measuring current A, andRm= resistance at maximum test temperature, V.7. Procedure7.1 Mount the test specimen in the f

24、urnace, bring thetemperature of the furnace to the maximum specified tempera-ture of test for the alloy in question, and hold at this value untilthe resistance of the specimen remains constant except for therelatively slow changes due to oxidation. Then lower thetemperature of the furnace in steps o

Define each point by themean of at least one pair of resistance readings for which thecurrent through the sample has been rever

26、sed between read-ings. This is necessary in order to eliminate the effects ofthermal electromotive forces.7.2 Determine the temperature by means of calibratedthermocouples, in conjunction with a potentiometer or pyrom-eter of such construction as to ensure an accuracy correspond-ing to a temperature

27、 uncertainty not exceeding 10C.8. Temperature-Resistance Curve8.1 Plot a curve showing the change of resistance withtemperature using the final room-temperature resistance valueas a base. Note the time interval between successive readingson the curve sheet. Consider the curve thus obtained withdesce

28、nding temperature as defining the true temperature-resistance characteristics of the material tested.9. Singular Points9.1 If there are indications that the curve is not smooth atany point, carry the specimen through the temperature cycleagain, and take temperature and resistance readings at interva

29、lsof approximately 25C in the suspected region.10. Precision and Bias10.1 The reproducibility of the change in resistance withtemperature depends primarily on the uniformity of tempera-ture of the sample and secondarily on the rate of temperaturedecrease. For nickel-chromium alloys the faster the de

30、crease intemperature, the lower the change in resistance.10.2 The precision of this test method is within 62%.10.3 The bias cannot be determined for reasons detailed in10.1.11.
