Burke, W F; Winiecki, A L

A temperature control system is described for an instrument for providing mechanical strain data in a fully reversed cycle test on a metallic sample with the strain results being minimum and maximum values. The system comprises: temperature means coupled to the sample for varying the temperature of the sample during the test including a set point means in a controlled device corresponding to a controlled temperature, means coupled to the sample for determining the value of strain during the test and providing an output signal representative of strain, and circuit means interconnected between the strain output and set point means for changing the set point linearly with changing values of strain output.
