Figure shows both the simulated and experimentally derived temperature profiles for a T-jump from 175 °C TAct as an example. It can be seen that the experimental results correspond closely with those derived from the simulation, with the maximum experimental ΔT at 89 °C being 87% of that predicted by the simulation. The uncertainties in the input parameters gave an error bar in the simulated ΔT of ± 40 °C, however the close agreement with the experimental results indicates that the best-estimate input parameters are realistic.
