Abstract
This work demonstrates experimental possibility of investigation of high refractory materials around its melting point, particularly in premelting region with high accuracy. In this article authors describe the developed experimental setup based on rapid resistive self-heating of a sample by a large current pulse generated by a capacitor discharge circuit that allow fast pulse interruption by temperature feedback signal. The sample temperature was measured with a two-channel microsecond radiation pyrometer. Preliminary experiments were conducted on tantalum and molybdenum at heating speed of 108 K/s. The method allows investigating thermophysical properties of refractory conductive materials such as melting temperature, melting heat, specific resistivity, specific enthalpy and specific heat capacity in solid and liquid phase, especially in premelting area.
