How to Improve Temperature Uniformity With a Polyimide Heater

By @thermal-element-journal

Good thermal design depends on more than a rated power value. The target temperature is only one part of the design problem. A polyimide heater uses thin polyimide insulation laminated around an etched resistive foil. You can use these points during design, sourcing, and testing. The aim is steady heat without making the assembly harder to build. The heater is thin, light, and easy to fit. Uniformity should be judged at the real process condition. Sharp folds can da
