Abstract

The reversible martensitic transformation in the NiTi and CuZnAl shape memory alloys were examined by the use of DTA and DSC methods. The problem of adequately established temperature, heats and kinetics of transformation were considered. The influence of the various types of DTA/DSC devices and changes in the experimental conditions on the results were determined.
