Misura™ Flash documentation

Misura™ Flash is a post-analysis tool for reading, organizing and processing data obtained from FlashLine instrument control software running on TA Instrument’s flash products.

Misura™ Flash extends the functionality of Misura™4 software: it is build upon the common platform explained in the general documentation.

It currently supports the calculation of thermal diffusivity from flash thermograms, according to advanced curve fitting models as:

• Gembarovic Two Dimensional Model
• In-Plane Model
• MultiLayer Model (two and three layers)

After a new Misura™ installation, the Flash functionality is deactivated by default. To activate it:

1. open the Misura™ Browser
2. from the menubar select Help ‣ Client configuration
3. Navigate to the Data import
4. Write the word thegram in the Import plugins by name option
5. Click upper-right Save button
6. Close and reopen the Misura™ Browser
