i think i have a plan. anybody see an issue with it?
i am going to bring the machine down, and close the valve allowing water to it.
there are already thermocouples hooked up to the system, but for whatever reason the temperatures displayed on the gauges are not accurate. if i hook up a...
But, if i take the same measurement (at the same place every time on the same surface) with the IR thermometer, shouldn't all/most of the error be canceled out when i compare one loop to the other?
I am measuring the flow with a paddle wheel flow meter.
I am measuring the temperature with a Microscanner D1001 IR thermometer.
The thermocouple is not accurate so I am not using it.
The piping may/may not be insulated. Regardless, it is the same piping for both loops inlet and...
Can anybody explain why my numbers are not equally out?
At work, I am trying to determine the heat transfer taking place in a water cabinet. Both loops have water in them. There is a counter current flow heat exchanger where the transfer takes place.
I take the temperature measurements...
