Emissive refractory coatings to improve infrared thermometer temperature measurements

Abstract This post describes a problem (and a partial solution to it) when using cheap IR thermometers to measure high temperatures on ultralight tent stoves. These stoves are made of low emissivity stainless steel (or titanium) which causes a ~50% underestimation of the true temperature. The application of a DIY … Continue reading Emissive refractory coatings to improve infrared thermometer temperature measurementsRead More →
