Methodology for spectral emissivity measurement by means of single color pyrometer

The application of non-intrusive optical devices, such as infrared pyrometers able to measure the temperature of surfaces, makes possible the evaluation of emissivity curve of the tested materials at different temperature values. In this paper the authors propose a methodology for the spectral emissivity measurement by means of a single color pyrometer providing a semi-empirical formula, obtained experimentally at CIRA’s laboratory. The semi-empirical formula allows to know the actual emissivity value of the sample’s surface for whatever emissivity value set up on the pyrometer. The agreement between the experimental emissivity and the emissivity predicted by semi-empirical formula was verified.     

Studies on the effect of temperature and time on the SS 304 surface for the properties degradation of the solar collector

The properties of emissivity (?) and absorptivity (α) of the surface of the material is an essential output for the solar collector. This paper highlights the work based on the RSM design expert, to study the effect of parameters’ temperature and time when the surface is exposed to sunlight and absorbing the properties of emissivity and absorptivity of the material SS 304. The temperature range of the SS 304 varied from 20°C to 356°C for various time intervals from 90 to 1100?h. From this experimental work, it is clearly seen that the emissivity rate increased when the surface is focused onto sunlight beyond the saturated level. The absorptivity of the surface of SS 304 increases till the optimum level and reaches the saturated level. As a result, after the optimum level, emissivity rate of the surface increases, and absorptivity of the surface decreases when it is focused onto sunlight.

Temperature behaviour of the substrate surface during growth of nanocrystalline silicon carbide films by deposition of 120 eV carbon and silicon ions

Changes in the temperature of nanocrystalline SiC film surface were measured during film growth by direct deposition of carbon and silicon ions onto substrates at ∼800 °С. It has been found that the initial stage of the film growth is characterized by uncontrolled variations of the surface temperature, which are observed for constant values of the deposition parameters. The energy components of the temperature balance on the film surface during its growth under conditions of direct ion deposition are analyzed. It is shown that magnitudes of temperature variations depend on the energy and current density of the deposited ions and on the ratio of the emissivity coefficients of the substrate material and silicon carbide. If this ratio is 1:6, the temperature rise at the initial growth stage reaches 160 °С when using 120 eV ion energy. For ion deposition onto silicon carbide substrates these uncontrolled temperature deviations at the initial stage of film growth were not observed.     

Texture and Porosity Effects on the Thermal Radiative Behavior of Alumina Ceramics

Thermal and optical properties of ceramics are dependent on radiation scattering and cannot be determined by a knowledge of their chemical composition alone, as for single crystals. In this paper, extrinsic effects, such as roughness, porosity, and texture, on the spectral emissivity of alumina ceramics are investigated. Roughness effects have an influence mainly in the opaque zone; an important porosity dependence and the presence of a critical porosity threshold were observed in the semitransparent zone. Furthermore, it was shown that two ceramics with similar total porosities, but with different textures, possess radically different emissivities, showing that grain size, pore size, and spatial repartition of the grains are also crucial for an understanding of the thermal properties of the ceramics. This study was performed at CEMTHI laboratory.     

Radiation Thermometry and Emissivity Measurements Under Vacuum at the PTB

A new experimental facility was realized at the PTB for reduced-background radiation thermometry under vacuum. This facility serves three purposes: (i) providing traceable calibration of space-based infrared remote-sensing experiments in terms of radiation temperature from  −173 °C to 430 °C and spectral radiance; (ii) meeting the demand of industry to perform radiation thermometric measurements under vacuum conditions; and (iii) performing spectral emissivity measurements in the range from 0 °C to 430 °C without atmospheric interferences. The general concept of the reduced background calibration facility is to connect a source chamber with a detector chamber via a liquid nitrogen-cooled beamline. Translation and alignment units in the source and detector chambers enable the facility to compare and calibrate different sources and detectors under vacuum. In addition to the source chamber, a liquid nitrogen-cooled reference blackbody and an indium fixed-point blackbody radiator are connected to the cooled beamline on the radiation side. The radiation from the various sources is measured with a vacuum infrared standard radiation thermometer (VIRST) and is also imaged on a vacuum Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) to allow for spectrally resolved measurements of blackbodies and emissivity samples. Determination of the directional spectral emissivity will be performed in the temperature range from 0 °C to 430 °C for angles from 0° to ±70° with respect to normal incidence in the wavelength range from 1 μm to 1,000 μm.

Research on the Temperature and Emissivity Measurement of the Metallic Thermal Protection Blanket

The temperatures and emissivities of the metallic thermal protection blanket at (900–1,300) °C are investigated experimentally by using a multi-wavelength pyrometer. A linear relation between the emissivity and true temperature at different wavelengths is assumed. Based on this assumption, the true temperatures and spectral emissivities of the metallic thermal protection blanket at the two temperature measurement points can be calculated simultaneously. Some experimental results for the practical data processing of measurements performed on the metallic thermal protection blanket show that the difference between the calculated temperature and the temperature measured by a standard thermocouple is within  ±  10°C.     

Design and Evaluation of Large-Aperture Gallium Fixed-Point Blackbody

To complement existing water bath blackbodies that now serve as NIST primary standard sources in the temperature range from 15 °C to 75 °C, a gallium fixed-point blackbody has been recently built. The main objectives of the project included creating an extended-area radiation source with a target emissivity of 0.9999 capable of operating either inside a cryo-vacuum chamber or in a standard laboratory environment. A minimum aperture diameter of 45 mm is necessary for the calibration of radiometers with a collimated input geometry or large spot size. This article describes the design and performance evaluation of the gallium fixed-point blackbody, including the calculation and measurements of directional effective emissivity, estimates of uncertainty due to the temperature drop across the interface between the pure metal and radiating surfaces, as well as the radiometrically obtained spatial uniformity of the radiance temperature and the melting plateau stability. Another important test is the measurement of the cavity reflectance, which was achieved by using total integrated scatter measurements at a laser wavelength of 10.6 μm. The result allows one to predict the performance under the low-background conditions of a cryo-chamber. Finally, results of the spectral radiance comparison with the NIST water-bath blackbody are provided. The experimental results are in good agreement with predicted values and demonstrate the potential of our approach. It is anticipated that, after completion of the characterization, a similar source operating at the water triple point will be constructed. Certain commercial equipment, instruments, or material are identified in this paper to specify the experimental procedures and result adequately. Such identification is not intended to imply recommendation or endorsement by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, nor is it intended to imply that material or equipment identified are necessarily the best available for the purpose.     

Effect of different parameters on the in situ thermal conductance evaluation

In the last years many studies have been carried out on the possible improvements of the in situ thermal conductance measurement; as well known, this has to be derived by recorded values of temperatures and heat fluxes. A big effort has been addressed in the implementation and comparison of different analysis methods. The aim of this paper is to widen the existent literature in the study of the influence of different kinds of input data on the final result. First the problem of analysing input data with significant drift in temperature is considered, adopting both nominal clean and noise affected data. Then the effect due to the presence of the Heat Flux Meter (HFM) on the thermal field of the testing element has been analysed, as well as the possibility of recording HFM surface temperature. These studies are based on Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations; both nominal clean and noise affected data have been considered as input. Finally, a difference in emissivity between the heat flux meter and internal plaster surface has been analysed by means of FEM simulations based on nominal clean data. An overall estimation of the occurred deviations in the different cases is shown.
