Emissivity

Afterwards, determine the temperature of a directly adjacent area and modify the emissivity

until the measured value corresponds to the temperature of the colored surface.

On all three methods the object temperature must be different from ambient temperature.

11.3 Characteristic Emissivity

In the case that none of the methods mentioned above help to determine the emissivity you may use the

emissivity tables, see Chap. A 4, see Chap. A 5. These are only average values. The actual emissivity of a ma-

terial depends on the following factors:

- Temperature

- Measuring angle

- Geometry of the surface (smooth, convex, concave)

- Thickness of the material

- Constitution of the surface (polished, oxidized, rough, sandblast)

- Spectral range of the measurement

- Transmissivity (e.g. with thin films)
