Infrared Thermopile Temperature Measurement Technique in Microwave Heating Systems
Temperature measurement in microwave systems is essential for thermally driven processes, namely, catalytic reactions and ceramic sintering. Although, the application of direct thermometry methods, namely, thermocouples, have been commonly articulated in the available literature, however, contacted temperature measurement mechanisms have aroused concerns associated with the disruption of the el...
متن کاملTympanic membrane temperature as a measure of core temperature.
BACKGROUND Ear thermometers are becoming popular as a method for measuring deep body (core) temperature. AIM To determine the variability of a single user's tympanic membrane (ear) temperature measurements. SUBJECTS Forty-two, afebrile, healthy children, and 20 febrile children with acute burns. RESULTS In afebrile children measurements made in both ears (and within just a few minutes of ...
متن کاملContinuous measurement of tympanic temperature with a new infrared method using an optical fiber.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the utility of an infrared tympanic thermometry by using an optical fiber for measuring tympanic temperature (Tty). In the head cooling and facial fanning tests during normothermia, right Tty measured by this method (infrared-Tty) and esophageal temperature (Tes) were not affected by decreased temple and forehead skin temperatures, suggesting that th...
متن کاملRe-visiting the tympanic membrane vicinity as core body temperature measurement site
Core body temperature (CBT) is an important and commonly used indicator of human health and endurance performance. A rise in baseline CBT can be attributed to an onset of flu, infection or even thermoregulatory failure when it becomes excessive. Sites which have been used for measurement of CBT include the pulmonary artery, the esophagus, the rectum and the tympanic membrane. Among them, the ty...
متن کاملLateralized Difference in Tympanic Membrane Temperature: Emotion and Hemispheric Activity
We review literature examining relationships between tympanic membrane temperature (TMT), affective/motivational orientation, and hemispheric activity. Lateralized differences in TMT might enable real-time monitoring of hemispheric activity in real-world conditions, and could serve as a corroborating marker of mental illnesses associated with specific affective dysregulation. We support the pro...
