Article Synopsis
The design of high temperature furnaces incorporating internally wound 20 per cent rhodium-platinum heating elements has been developed and improved over many years at the Building Research Station. The type of construction described here permits a higher furnace temperature to be obtained for a given winding temperature than is possible with other constructions, and yet enables good working lives to be achieved.
