The invention discloses a
heating furnace for a
creep and rupture life tester, which comprises an operating
handle, a fixing piece, an outer furnace shell, an inner furnace shell, a heat-preservation layer and a fire-retarding layer, wherein the heat-preservation layer adopts
aluminosilicate fiber cotton; a heat-resistance layer in the core part of the
heating furnace has a tubular structure; the inside
diameter of the tubular heat-resistance layer ranges from 100 to 110 millimeters and is divided into upper, middle and lower three
layers; each layer of the heat-resistance layer is formed by joining two high-
alumina bricks with a half-'tubular' structure and the
layers of the heat-resistance layer have a consistent coaxiality with the axis of the furnace shells; the inner wall of each layer of the heat-resistance layer is spirally and uniformly distributed with 16 circles of furnace wires; the
diameter of the furnace wires is 5 to 6 millimeters; the screw
pitch is 10 millimeters; the spiral height is 160 millimeters; and the furnace wires on the inner wall of each layer of the heat-resistance layer are led out of the furnace shells respectively to be connected with a power supply. Compared with the prior art, the
heating furnace has the advantages of safety, economy and practicality, can be used for heating in
creep and rupture life tests of various
metal materials at 100 to 1,200 DEG C and can truly reflect the
homoiothermy of a whole test process.
