Abstract

To create homogeneous heating in the sample space in a belt-type high-pressure apparatus, modified heating assemblies under pressure of 2.5 GPa and temperature up to 1700 °C were examined. Counterbores (with several diameters) were made at both ends of a cylindrical graphite heater to suppress the temperature gradient along the cylindrical axis of the heater. Temperature distributions within the heaters were measured by thermocouples and geothermometers. Both sets of measurements revealed that the temperature distribution in the sample space (6.9 mm outside diameter/12 mm length) was homogenized (i.e., variation of less than 10 °C under heating at 1700 °C) by optimizing the heater shape.
