LABORATORY TEMPERATURE CONTROL WITH ULTRA-SMOOTH HEAT TRANSFER SURFACES

摘要

A temperature regulation system has a polished surface sufficiently smooth so as to reduce the emissivity of the surface. A conduit is in thermal proximity to the polished surface and is in communication with a source of coolant. The coolant is circulated through the conduit so as to transfer heat from the surface to the coolant. System may include a sprayed-on resistive heater. An a temperature controlled vessel has a heat transfer wall that is of an electrically conductive material that is coated with a durable thermally conductive and electrically nonconductive coating. The coating may be a sprayed on coating and the vessel may hold a buffer for performing electrophoresis.
