> Do you mean the net heat output, from joule heating plus anomalous heat? No, the net heat INPUT, from joule heating plus anomalous heat. The capacitance represent the specific heat * volume, and the resistors to "AMBIENT" represent the convective and radiative OUTPUT. > Are you saying it is a highly regular triangle?!? I suppose not.

Now I need to combine the two by applying the two pulses (square and triangular) in an overlapping pattern before it decays. (I've previously convinced myself that the T^4 variation of radiation isn't significant in determining the shape of the pulse).. Oh ... and what happens when (as Siegel etc .. demand) you turn off the controller? Duh : it'll just decay as shown on the right !!!!!
