TEGA High-Temp Ramp TA-1 for Blank Oven Change Bars are relative to TEGA_High-T_OFB_test_on_TA0_v4_r1.doc Reconciled with block: Objectives:

The purpose of this run is to look for organics and CO2 release to determine the nature of the system blank for organic compounds. After warm up, we will collect residual data for 7 minutes followed by 15 minutes for the atmosphere and 15 minutes for the carrier gas. We then take 10 minutes to flush the gas out of the oven then begin the ramp. The ramp starts at -60 C and runs to + 1000 C at 20 K/min followed by a 5 minute hold before the ramp returns to low temperatures. The procedure shuts off the manifold heater when the oven and shield are at high temperatures to avoid drawing too much current from the lander; we do not turn it back on as we used to do when we analyzed cal gas at the end of a run. A procedure similar to this was run on TA-0. That ramp was shortened a lot be removing the atmosphere test and some other things. This run will be longer.

Configuration:

The control of flow via the carrier valve is not possible due to a hardware problem. We will begin the run with the carrier valve in the open position and leave it there throughout the run. We will regulate the flow with a duty cycle control on the bypass and oven inlet valves (depending on where we want the gas to flow).

Remember that TA7 is shorted, so any gas flow through TA1 will happen through TA7 also.
