Accuracy of Optical Pyrometry in the Range 800 °c to 4000 °c

Abstract: A pair of secondary standard tungsten strip lamps have had a luminance temperature – current calibration, in the range 800 °C to 2200 °C, at a number of national laboratories. An analysis of the calibration results confirms estimates of the accuracy of optical pyrometry in the range 800 °C to 2200 °C and supports the extension of these estimates to 4000 °C. The standard deviation uncertainty of optical pyrometry is shown to be about 1 °C at 800 °C rising to 2 °C at 2200 °C and 10 °C at 4000 °C, being about dou… Show more

“…In addition, if nonblackbodies are often used, it is well to use 5 or 6 observers to determine if any observer has a very unusual relative luminosity curve. The standard deviation of the mean effective wavelength due to luminosity factor differences has been reported [28] to be about 8 A, which in reading a strip lamp at 2300°C with a pyrometer having constant Lovejoy [7], using the results of an investigation of contrast thresholds or limens (see footnote 15) reported by Blackwell [29], calculated the expected observer standard deviation temperatures for the mean of a set of matches consisting of a bright filament to disappearance and a dark filament to disappearance for a pyrometer having a 0.05 radian exit angle, a 0.7 mm exit pupil, and a 0.038 mm actual and 10 min apparent angular filament width. The standard deviations ranged from 0.2 deg C at 1400°C to 0.3 deg C at 1063°C and increased to 1.6 deg C at 800°C,^* and agreed well with his experimental values.…”
