7.6 Structural Core Temperature Thermocouples

 When testing a specimen with a structural core other than steel, thermocouples should be fixed to the core material in positions corresponding to the surface thermocouples mentioned in 7.5.1.1.

 The thermocouples should be fixed so that their hot junctions are attached to the appropriate positions by suitable means, including peening into the structural core. The wires should be prevented from becoming hotter than the junction. The first 50 mm should be in an isothermal plane.
