Very nice summary / report from infinite-energy
QuoteStay tuned for news of these ongoing Open Science projects from MFMP. We expect reports of other Hot Cat-like replications at the upcoming ICCF19 conference in Padova, Italy. See you there!
Key Results
QuoteMaterials vary greatly in the way they emit infrared light when heated. This property is called “emissivity” and ranges from 0 for empty space to 1 for a perfect “black body” radiant surface. Our most important finding was that the Optris thermal camera needed an emissivity setting in the range of 0.95 in order to match the same range of temperatures seen by the thermocouples and the dual wavelength pyrometer. A spot of black Aremco 840-CM high-emissivity coating was compared with the Dog Bone surface in a process recommended by the Optris operating manual:
