I am working on integrating a flexible heater into a design that currently houses Pyrex test tubes. The idea is to pre-heat the samples before they enter the measurement chamber.
I have carried out the Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient calcs to determine what that would be. Now I am kind of stuck. What do I need to do to be able to determine what the correct sizing would be for the heater (they are being rated as X W/in^s) and how long it will take to raise the sample from room temp to 70 deg C?
thanks for any help
