1. A method for testing a performance of a plurality of sealing members, the method comprising:
providing a testing fixture including at least two blocks, wherein each of the at least two blocks is in a contacting relationship with a plurality of fixtures, each of the plurality of fixtures defining a groove portion therein, wherein the groove portion is configured to receive one of the plurality of sealing members therein; connecting each of the plurality of fixtures with a fluid manifold; controlling a temperature of each of the at least two blocks using a thermal device, wherein a temperature associated with the groove portion of each of the plurality of fixtures is based on the temperature of the corresponding block, such that each of the at least two blocks are at temperatures different from each other; passing a fluid through each of the plurality of fixtures, wherein the fluid is configured to flow through a channel provided adjacent to and surrounding the groove portion on each of the plurality of fixtures; and monitoring a response of each of the plurality of sealing members to determine at least one performance parameter of each of the plurality of sealing members based, at least in part, on the controlling of the temperature and the passing of the fluid. |
