- Abstract
- Two devices are introduced for measuring temperature in fire test furnaces, the plate thermometer and the globe thermometer. They are both sensitive to levels of irradiance like test specimens while ordinary thermocouple beeds are more sensitive convective heat transfer. It is suggested that these devices are specified in new furnace standards like ISO 834.
