Scientific paper

Operational experience with the mirror furnaces flown in the Texus 1 and 2 rockets led to the development of an improved mirror furnace system for thermal analysis of small samples. The furnace operates in two basic modes: constant optical power and sample temperature profile mode. In the constant power mode the control system maintains the same light output from the halogen lamps in convective cooling of the filament in microgravity. In the temperature profile mode the temperature at the edge of the sample is used to control the furnace power.
