Ta HP-FEBIAD was coated with TaC and wrapped with Ta heat-shields (3 layers)

Desired temperature = 1800 C , TBHT will be set fixed at 230A (max).

Evap 2 will be pumped down over previous night

OMEGA slope= 0.990

Good vacuum = 3.00 e-4 Torr

Bad vacuum = 5.00 e-2 Torr

IGP1= 1.2 e-06 Torr

Start autoramp @2A/min to 80 A then autoramp heat @1A/min to 150 A.  Then autoramp TGHT to 675A and TBHT to 230A.1
