Thermal Noise Emissions from a Hot Gas.
Abstract
This report describes experiments to measure thermal noise emissions from hot wire and hot gas conductors. A simple analysis of these measurements is developed to relate the thermal noise power to the thermodynamically correct temperature of the hot conductor. We conclude that the absolute temperature of the conductors can be measured to an accuracy of 1%. The results of this work suggest that non-intrusive transient temperature measurements can be made in the interior of combustion processes. (Author)
