Abstract

Abstract For making families of steady-state heat transfer coefficient curves visible, the invisible residual moisture profile obtained by exposing a moisture photogelatin layer to a gas is immersed, in daylight, in a soluble organic sulfur compound, particularly thioacetamide, and is converted into a silver sulfide line photogram. The method is used, for example, for making visible families of steady-state heat transfer coefficient curves on forced air-cooled electronic assemblies.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 101 words
In a method for making families of steady-state heat transfer coefficient curves visible by photochemical means, wherein, a moist silver halide-containing photogelatin layer is applied to a surface and subjected to a gas stream, whereby an invisible residual moisture profile is obtained in said photogelatin layer, the improvement comprising converting said residual moisture profile into a silver sulfide line photogram by immersing said photogelatin layer, in daylight, in a developer solution mixture comprising alcohol and an organic sulfur compound soluble in alcohol and capable of reacting with the silver halide to form a silver sulfide, and thereafter fixing the line photogram.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 101 words
In a method for making families of steady-state heat transfer coefficient curves visible by photochemical means, wherein, a moist silver halide-containing photogelatin layer is applied to a surface and subjected to a gas stream, whereby an invisible residual moisture profile is obtained in said photogelatin layer, the improvement comprising converting said residual moisture profile into a silver sulfide line photogram by immersing said photogelatin layer, in daylight, in a developer solution mixture comprising alcohol and an organic sulfur compound soluble in alcohol and capable of reacting with the silver halide to form a silver sulfide, and thereafter fixing the line photogram.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 29 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein said developer solution mixture comprises from about 0.5 to 2 grams of said sulfur compound, referred to 100 ml of solvent mixture.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 14 words
The method according to claims 1 or 2 wherein said sulfur compound is thioacetamide.
