Abstract From the Canadian patent

The inventor has found that, irrespective of track thickness or the material of which the track is constructed the, optimum track width for a thick film heater track is in the range of from 1.2mm to 2.1mm. Further advantage accrues in that for a given resistance the track is longer and may be conformed to a pattern to give improved temperature distribution. A heating element is also provided comprising a plurality, of thick film electrically resistive tracks (8) applied to the surface of an electrically insulative substrate and switching means (10) for selectively connecting one or more of said tracks to a power supply. The resistance and hence the operating temperature of the heating …
