(a) Experimental temperature distribution resulting from the optimized resistor, providing a mean temperature in the cavity of 49 °C; (b) Experimental temperature distribution in the non-optimized case (i.e., with constant-width elements), for a mean temperature into the cavity of 51 °C. (c) Experimental mean temperature versus time for cycles with a 10 s period and an acquisition frequency of 25 Hz. The transient state lasts approximately 2 s.
