To provide a thermal analysis system which can easily perform a heating analysis while suppressing an atmospheric exposure accompanied by the movement of a specimen, and a thermal analysis method.SOLUTION: A thermal analysis system 100 of the present disclosure comprises a specimen preparation part 10 and a thermal analysis part 20. The specimen preparation part 10 has a wall part 110 forming an internal space, a gate part 111 which can open and close an opening part 110a of the wall part 110, a specimen holding member 120 having a specimen holder 121 and a temperature sensor 122, a moving mechanism 130 for moving the specimen holder 121 into a thermal analysis part 20, a seal mechanism 140 for sealing the specimen holder 121 to the internal space of the specimen preparation part 10, and a coupling mechanism 150 for connecting a heating tube 210 of the thermal analysis part 20 to the gate part 111 in a state that the heating tube is sealed to the outside. The thermal analysis part 20 has the heating tube 210 for storing the specimen holder 121 from the specimen preparation part 10, and a heating part 220 for heating the heating tube 210.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】試料移動に伴う大気暴露を抑制しつつ加熱分析を容易に実施することが可能な熱分析システム及び熱分析方法を提供する。【解決手段】本開示に係る熱分析システム１００は、試料準備部１０と熱分析部２０とを備え、試料準備部１０は、内部空間を形成する壁部１１０と、壁部１１０の開口部１１０ａを開閉可能とするゲート部１１１と、試料ホルダ１２１と温度センサ１２２とを有する試料保持部材１２０と、試料ホルダ１２１を熱分析部２０内に移動させる移動機構１３０と、試料ホルダ１２１を試料準備部１０の内部空間に対してシールするシール機構１４０と、熱分析部２０の加熱チューブ２１０を外部に対してシールした状態でゲート部１１１と連結するカップリング機構１５０とを有し、熱分析部２０は、試料準備部１０からの試料ホルダ１２１を収容する加熱チューブ２１０と、加熱チューブ２１０を加熱する加熱部２２０とを有することを特徴とする。【選択図】図１
