Abstract
A multilayer temperature control shell for a test chamber to control the temperature within the interior of the test chamber wherein the multilayer temperature control shell comprises an inner temperature generating zone and an outer temperature insulating zone disposed between an interior layer of sealant and an exterior layer of sealant.
Claims16
A test chamber comprising:
- a multilayer temperature control shell, the multilayer temperature control shell increasing an efficiency of temperature transfer to an interior of the test chamber and controlling temperature within the interior of the test chamber,
- wherein the multilayer temperature control shell comprises
- an inner temperature generating zone and an outer temperature insulating zone disposed between an interior layer of sealant and an exterior layer of sealant, wherein the inner temperature generating zone comprises an interior layer of temperature conductive material, where a first portion of the interior layer of temperature conductive material disposed in contact with a layer of temperature distribution material, and where a second portion of the interior layer of temperature conductive material is disposed in contact with the interior layer of sealant forming a wall defining at least a portion of the interior of the test chamber, and
- wherein the interior layer of temperature conductive material comprises fiber glass impregnated with a mixture of resin and temperature conductive metallic powder.

A multilayer temperature control liner for a test chamber, the multilayer temperature control liner comprising:
- an exterior surface;
- an interior surface comprised of a sealant layer defining a cavity of the test chamber;
- a layer of temperature conductive material disposed in contact with the interior surface and further disposed between the exterior surface and the interior surface, the layer of temperature conductive material comprising fiberglass impregnated with a mixture of resin and temperature conductive metallic powder, wherein the temperature conductive metallic powder increases a temperature coefficient of the multilayer temperature control liner, and wherein the layer of temperature conductive material is insulated from exposure to the cavity of the test chamber by the sealant layer, where the sealant layer contacts the layer of temperature conductive material;
- and
- an interior layer of insulation material disposed in spaced relationship with a layer of temperature distribution material cooperatively forming a space or gap there between, wherein one or more of at least one heating element and/or at least one cooling element is disposed within the space or gap.

- a first insulation layer comprising a first portion disposed in contact with the exterior surface;
- a fluid jacket disposed comprising a first portion disposed in contact with a second portion of the first insulation layer;
- a second insulation layer comprising a first portion disposed in contact with a second portion of the fluid jacket;
- a plurality of temperature altering elements comprising a first portion disposed in contact with the second insulation layer;
- a temperature distribution layer comprising a first portion disposed in contact with a second portion of the plurality of temperature altering elements;
- and
- a temperature conductive layer comprising a first portion in contact with a second portion of the temperature distribution layer, and a second portion in contact with the sealant layer,
- wherein the temperature conductive material comprises fiber glass impregnated with a mixture of resin and temperature conductive metallic powder.
