Thin foil planar radiometers: application for designing contactless sensors

This paper is devoted to describing a new sensor allowing one to measure the net radiant flux exchanged by the wall surface it is mounted on. The device is constructed by mounting a thermopile-type radiometer on a larger thin metallic foil support. When the emissivity of the paint covering the support is the same as that of the wall surface on which the sensor is applied, a direct reading (positive or negative emf) of the radiant flux (absorbed or emitted) by the wall surface is given, whatever the convective losses. The calibration is carried out in a simple and useful apparatus designed to produce a prescribed total radiant exchange between two metallic plates at different temperatures and is estimated to be accurate to within two per cent. Simplicity and ruggedness make the radiometer appropriate for direct measurement of heat exchanged between surfaces heated up to 500 K. Notable applications include use as a traditional total hemispheric radiometer and a contactless temperature difference sensor.
