The first Thermosense Conference held at the Chattanooga Choo-Choo Hotel in 1978 was in response to the “Carter Energy Crisis”. There were three sessions with a total of fifteen papers presented. The sessions all dealt with IR thermography with t

During the spring seasons of 2003 and 2004, an infrared thermal camera was deployed in and around supercell thunderstorms in an attempt to retrieve the temperature at the cloud base of a mesocyclone prior to tornadogenesis. The motivation for this ex

This paper discusses the differences in temperature measurement among three infrared (IR) cameras with different spatial resolutions. The targets used were actual field problems. This was not a laboratory experiment, but a real-world test of these ca

Fluoride-type IR windows have good transmittance in the mid-wave IR band (3 to 5 micrometers). But, their transmittance drops rapidly in the long wave IR band (8 to 12 micrometers). Many low-cost plastic IR windows are also spectral in nature. Thermo

Infrared thermal sensing and imaging instruments, promoted by military interests as early as World War I, had evolved into serious industrial and energy conservation tools in the US by the late 1960s. The 'energy crunch' of the 1970s focused national

Modern infrared imaging radiometric cameras typically measure over a nominal waveband within one of two atmospheric windows, 8-12 or 3-5 micrometers. As such, they must assume targets are graybodies to calculate their temperatures. The IR camera can

An IR camera responds to infrared radiant energy over a waveband determined by the camera optics and detector. Most cameras operate in either the 3 to 5 micrometers or 8 to 12 micrometers wavebands as they represent good atmospheric windows. Temperat

A nondestructive method of temperature measurement of arc tubes in high intensity discharge lamps has been developed using through the glass thermal imaging. This obviates the need to break the lamp outer jackets in order to gain access to the arc tu

We all know the wind either from environmental sources, fans or blowers will cool things off. Why then, do we often ignore the wind when doing IR thermographic survey? If we believe in the power of convective cooling, we must realize this will affect

For years predictive maintenance thermographers have been challenged by industrial targets to determine whether they had a problem, and if they did how big was it. We have struggled with low emissivity and unknown emissivity targets. We have observed
