Abstract

ITS-90 Radiation temperature Scale is defined only above the freezing point of silver. However, the need of calibration of radiation thermometers below this temperature is also important because many industries such as paper, cement, rubber makes use of the radiation thermometry for temperature measurements. Besides the temperature range of many radiation thermometers cover below and above freezing point of silver. This work will describe the radiometric calibration of a commercial thermometer at the fixed points.
