The physical and mechanical metallurgy of the copper wire annealing response have been traditionally related to isothermal anneals, that is times at a given temperature. In line, direct-resistance annealing is not clearly isothermal, however, and in some cases may involve a heating ramp with a very short or poorly defined time at peak temperature. Moveover, the actual thermal cycle including peak temperature, is rarely measurable.
