Oh I see. Could you teach me how can I do that if I have no temperature
chamber?

Use a hair dryer.  Cautiously.

You are over clocking a micro.  Be creative.

Or a cardbord box. If your device dissipates enough heat it will
warm up all by it self. Otherwise add a little heat somewhere,
possibly with the above mentioned testing equipment. ;-) Oh and
keep an eye on the temperature, you don't want to start a fire.

Most household ovens can be set as low as 50 degrees C, but check
with a thermometer.

And there are many other sources of suitable heat in most houses,
so experiment a little.

And you may want to check in the cold as well. fridge, freezer,
cold spray, outside.....
