If any cell is red, the measurement is not valid. Repeat the measurement. Check the R
2
value for
each measurement. If the R
2
value is less than 0.995, the measurement may not be valid.
Metals have lower R
2
values than lower k materials. Ensure that the sensor is on a stable
surface and that the material and sensor are in good contact. An orange cell means that the
thermal conductivity or effusivity value is outside of the calibration range of that material group.
The derived values are displayed on the test results table if the material has density and heat
capacity values entered. Some values are displayed when the density is entered.
