Absorbing Filters and High-Temperature Optical Pyrometry

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

It is shown by calculations based on spectral transmission data that Chance ON30 neutral and Corning Pyrometer Brown glasses may be used as constant-absorption absorbing filters in optical pyrometry to measure indefinitely high-luminance temperatures with calculable accuracy. In the case of Chance ON30 glass below 2500°K, the constant absorption was confirmed by direct calibration using a rotating sectored disk.

Corrections have been calculated to 8000°K, to change from temperatures based on Wien’s law to temperatures based on Planck’s law. A number of minor precautions necessary to achieve the greatest possible accuracy have been noted and standard-deviation accuracies have been calculated for high temperatures.

The theory of optical pyrometry has been developed, in an appendix, in a form suitable for discussion of high-temperature measurements.
