Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Thermometry is a discipline with a history of millennia, with the earliest accounts of temperature measurement dating back to the 1600s when thermometers were first invented. At the time this book was written, accurate temperature measurement had become important for modern technologies such as Bessemer steel and the internal combustion engine. However, the complexities of measuring temperature above 1000° C meant there was a need for a practical and adaptable guide for those working with high temperatures. This book was written to fill that gap. The author meticulously presents a method of constructing and testing high-temperature thermometers and encourages those working in the field to submit their own findings to expand the accuracy and reliability of high-temperature thermometry. Republished here with enhanced typesetting, this book is a valuable contribution to the field of thermometry and is essential reading for anyone who works with high temperatures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a timeless guide to pyrometry, delves into the theory and practice of temperature measurement at high temperatures. The author explores the evolution of temperature scales, from the initial definition using the freezing and boiling points of water to sophisticated methods involving radiation laws. The book covers a wide range of pyrometers, including mercury-in-glass thermometers, thermocouples, and optical and radiation pyrometers. The author discusses their construction, calibration, and sources of error, providing practical guidance for their use in various industrial applications. Beyond the technical aspects, the author examines the fundamental principles of temperature measurement and the challenges of achieving accurate and reproducible results. The discussion encompasses topics such as the definition of the thermodynamic temperature scale, the role of fixed points, and the impact of temperature gradients and inhomogeneities. Throughout the text, the author emphasizes the importance of understanding the limitations and uncertainties associated with temperature measurements. This book serves as an invaluable resource for practitioners in diverse fields where accurate temperature measurement is crucial, including metallurgy, ceramics, glass manufacturing, and chemical engineering. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
