    摘要: A thermal fatigue test stand for combustion engine cylinder heads. A cylinder head support having at least a cylinder head zone capable of being exposed to the engine combustion. At least one burner for directing a flame on the entire head zone. At least one heat flux sensor located in the cylinder head thickness at the zone to verify whether the heat flux produced by the flame is at least approximately in conformity with a predetermined value. The invention also concerns a method for calibrating such a test stand, and a method for testing cylinder heads. The invention is particularly useful for developing, both from a metallurgical and geometrical viewpoints, aluminum alloy cylinder heads.
