Standard Practice for Measuring and Compensating for Transmittance of an Attenuating Medium Using Infrared Imaging Radiometers

Importancia y uso:

5.1 The transmittance of an attenuating medium can cause errors for an infrared thermographer using an infrared imaging radiometer to measure the temperature of a specimen through the medium. Three test methods are given for measuring and compensating for this error source.

5.1.1 A procedure is given for measuring the transmittance of an attenuating medium.

5.1.2 A procedure is given for compensating for errors when measuring the temperature of a specimen having a known emissivity through an attenuating medium with a known transmittance.

5.1.3 A procedure is given for measuring and compensating for transmittance and emissivity errors when the specimen temperature is known.

5.2 These procedures can be used in the field or laboratory using commonly available materials.

5.3 These procedures can be used with any infrared radiometers that have the required computer capabilities.

5.4 The values of transmittance are defined only in terms of the procedure for the purpose of process control and nondestructive evaluation of materials.
