A. Trombe et Ja. Moreau, SURFACE-TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT OF SEMITRANSPARENT MATERIAL BY THERMOCOUPLE IN REAL SITE EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH AND SIMULATION, International journal of heat and mass transfer, 38(15), 1995, pp. 2797-2807
This study's aim is to appreciate real site surface temperature error
values obtained using a thermocouple on semi-transparent materials and
to determine a method of correction. Using an efficient measurement s
ystem, an experimental study was carried out under a number of climati
c conditions. The results show that high values for solar radiation an
d wind speed have a significant influence on thermocouple measurement.
The authors, therefore, decided to validate and develop a corrective
model for the measurement errors of these two parameters. The conclusi
on also provides data on the model's relative drawbacks and current li
mitations.
