A Third Generation Water Bath Based Blackbody Source
نویسنده
چکیده
A third generation water bath based black-body source has been designed and constructed in the Radiometric Physics Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, MD. The goal of this work was to design a large aperture blackbody source with improved temporal stability and reproducibility compared with earlier designs, as well as improved ease of use. These blackbody sources operate in the 278 K to 353 K range with water temperature combined standard uncertainties of 3.5 mK to 7.8 mK. The calculated emissivity of these sources is 0.9997 with a relative standard uncertainty of 0.0003. With a 50 mm limiting aperture at the cavity; entrance, the emissivity increases to 0.99997.

متن کاملInfluence of Tube Arrangement on the Thermal Performance of Indirect Water Bath Heaters
Natural convection heat transfer from a tube bundle in the indirect water bath heaters is investigated. A computer-code is used for the solution of the governing equations of mass, momentum and energy transfer based on the SIMPLE-C algorithm. Simulations are carried out for the gas pressure station heater of Kermanshah city with various tube bundle arrangements. In order to validate the numeric...
متن کاملRadiative Energy Transfer with Filters and Stokes/Anti-Stokes Coatings
An ideal blackbody resides inside a cavity in a medium (heat bath) of temperature T that is also an ideal blackbody. If the small black body is initially at temperature T , could its temperature evolve to an equilibrium temperature T ′ different from T if the inner surface of the cavity were covered with a passive filter? For example, the filter might be an ideal transmitter for light of some w...

متن کاملAqueous blackbody calibration source for millimeter-wave/terahertz metrology.
This paper describes a calibrated broadband emitter for the millimeter-wave through terahertz frequency regime, called the aqueous blackbody calibration source. Due to its extremely high absorption, liquid water is chosen as the emitter on the basis of reciprocity. The water is constrained to a specific shape (an optical trap geometry) in an expanded polystyrene (EPS) container and maintained a...
