THERMAL RADIATION PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS, PART II

Abstract

Results obtained for the spectral emittance of materials measured in air at intermediate temperatures of about 1400 F are compared to the spectral reflectances measured at room temperature. The temperature effect is found to be small for oxidized metals and for ceramic coatings and some of the apparent effects are still associated with variation of the material and with inaccuracy of measurement. Spectral emittances for metals were determined only for platinum. A system designed for the determination of the spectral emittance of metals or of materials with metallic substrates, in vacuum or in an inert atmosphere, is described and preliminary results are indicated for Inconel.
