The DTA system designed depends on the interaction between an Amstrad PC and the measuring head via an appropriate digital-analogue (D/A) and analogue-digital (A/D) converter board. A new DTA head has been designed, the temperature of which is programmed from the computer and increases (decreases) linearly with time at the set rate via a relay. [Continues.]
