A system for inductively heating a workpiece may include an induction coil, at least one susceptor face sheet, and a current controller coupled. The induction coil may be configured to conduct an alternating current and generate a magnetic field in response to the alternating current. The susceptor face sheet may be configured to have a workpiece positioned therewith. The susceptor face sheet may be formed of a ferromagnetic alloy having a Curie temperature and being inductively heatable to an equilibrium temperature approaching the Curie temperature in response to the magnetic field. The current controller may be coupled to the induction coil and may be configured to adjust the alternating current in a manner causing a change in at least one heating parameter of the susceptor face sheet.

A fitting and an associated grommet are provided for supporting a conduit penetrating a panel and limiting energy transfer between the conduit and panel. The fitting may include a grommet having annular first and second sections spaced apart from one another and an annular wall extending between the first and second sections such that the wall and first and second sections define a bore. A plurality of ribs protrude from the annular wall, the ribs being distributed circumferentially around the annular wall and spanning between the first and second sections. A tubular liner extends through the bore of the grommet and contacts the first and second sections. The plurality of ribs extend into the bore, and at least some of the ribs contact the liner.

Apparatus and methods for measuring the electrical resistance of conductive materials are disclosed. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a housing, and first, second, third, and fourth conductive members projecting outwardly from the housing. The conductive members are engageable with an electrically-conductive material at a plurality of points distributed along a measurement axis. In an alternate embodiment, at least some of the conductive members include a spring-loaded portion such that a contact portion of the conductive member projects outwardly from the housing by a variable distance. In operation, the electrical resistance of the electrically-conductive material is determinable from a known current applied between the first and fourth conductive members, and a voltage measured between the second and third conductive members.
