Remote technique for measuring temperature fields
Abstract
Remote measurement of temperature fields of bodies is based on the detection of their infrared radiation with subsequent transformation of that radiation into electric signals, which are fed to the screen of a cathode-ray tube. This method measures temperature to within 0.2 C and allows virtually simultaneous transmission of information on the entire temperature field. The use of scanning devices, in particular a thermal imaging device, is highly promising in many industries, including the refrigeration industry, in analysis of temperature fields of heat-transmitting surfaces and recording heat leaks through insulation.
