    Can surrounding temperature affect IR camera results analysis?

    That's pretty intense thank you for this information. Eventually I'm going to be trying to use our camera to determine the temperature of a moving granulate salt in a screw heat exchanger which has IR optical glass on top. Another problem I'm running into is that when the glass gets warmer it...

    Can surrounding temperature affect IR camera results analysis?

    Hello all, I'm currently using an infrared camera to determine the emissivity of a steel. The camera "sees" whatever radiation entering the objective, and calculates the temperature of the steel by assuming it's emissivity is 1. I figured I could use an energy balance to find the emissivity...

    Calculating Pendulum Tension with 100ft Radius & 200lb Weight

    T=F=ma only in the most downward position. Otherwise the tension is a function of the angle. You must calculate the component of the weight of the load perpendicular to its path as a function of the angle.

    Maximizing Accuracy in K Type Thermocouple Measurements

    Hello all, I'm looking to buy an accurate K Type thermocouple and I have a couple questions concerning accuracy before I make my decision. -If it is a K Type thermocouple, does it matter how the probe is configured? e.g. length etc.? -Is there any discrepency in accuracy between different...
