Saving and working with images1212.1 About image files12.1.1 GeneralYou can save images to the memory card.The camera saves an image file including all thermal and visual information. This meansthat you can open an image file at a later time and, for example, select another imagemode, apply color alarms, and add measurement tools.The image jpg file is fully radiometric and saved lossless, which enables full post-proc-essing in image analysis and reporting software from FLIR Systems. There is also a reg-ular jpg part (lossy) for convenient viewing in non-FLIR Systems software (e.g., MicrosoftExplorer).The camera can also be configured to save an extra visual image as a separate file. Se-lect (Settings) > Save options & storage >Photo as separate JPEG =On.12.1.2 File-naming conventionThe default naming convention for image files is FLIRxxxx.jpg, where xxxx is a uniquecounter.It is also possible to save images with a date prefix added to the file name. However,these files may not automatically be detected by third-party applications. For more infor-mation, see section the setting File naming format in section 23.1.3 Save options & stor-age, page 72.12.1.3 Image capacityThe capacity of a 4 GB memory card is theoretically 1000 images (with no annotations).12.1.4 About UltraMaxUltraMax is an image enhancement feature that increases the image resolution and low-ers the noise, making small objects easier to see and measure. An UltraMax image istwice as wide and high as an ordinary image.When an UltraMax image is captured by the camera, several ordinary images are savedin the same file. Capturing all the images can take up to 1 second. To fully utilize Ultra-Max, the images need to be slightly different, which can be accomplished by a slightmovement of the camera. You should hold the camera firmly in your hands (do not put iton a tripod), which will make these images vary just a little during the capture. Correct fo-cus, a high-contrast scene, and a non-moving target are other conditions that help toachieve a good-quality UltraMax image.At the moment, only FLIR Tools has the ability to process UltraMax images. Other FLIRsoftware will treat the image as a regular image.To configure the camera for UltraMax, select (Settings) > Save options & storage >Image resolution =UltraMax.12.2 Saving an image12.2.1 GeneralYou can save images to the memory card.12.2.2 ProcedureFollow this procedure:1.

Working with measurement tools154. When completed, push the joystick and select (Done).15.5 Changing object parameters15.5.1 GeneralFor accurate measurements, you must set the object parameters.15.5.2 Types of parametersThe camera can use these object parameters:•External IR window compensation, i.e., the temperature of any protective windows,external lenses (e.g., close-up), etc., that are set up between the camera and the ob-ject of interest. If no protective window, protective shield, or external lens is used, thisvalue is irrelevant and should be left inactive.•Object distance, i.e., the distance between the camera and the object of interest.•Atmospheric temperature, i.e., the temperature of the air between the camera and theobject of interest.•Relative humidity, i.e., the relative humidity of the air between the camera and the ob-ject of interest.•Reflected temperature, which is used when compensating for the radiation from thesurroundings reflected by the object into the camera. This property of the object iscalled reflectivity.•Emissivity, i.e., how much radiation an object emits, compared with the radiation of atheoretical reference object at the same temperature (called a “blackbody”). The op-posite of emissivity is reflectivity. The emissivity determines how much of the radiationoriginates from the object as opposed to being reflected by it.NOTEThere is an Emissivity mode setting, which you can use to enter the emissivity by material instead ofby value. Select (Settings) > Device settings >User interface options >Emissivity mode >Se-lect from materials table.Of the object parameters, Emissivity is the most important parameter to set correctly. Ifthe Emissivity is set to a low value, the Reflected temperature also becomes important.The parameters Object distance,Atmospheric temperature, and Relative humidity arerelevant for longer distances. The External IR window compensation must be activated ifa protective window or external lens is used.15.5.3 Recommended valuesIf you are unsure about the values, the following are recommended:Object distance 1.0 m (3.3′)Atmospheric temperature +20°C (+69°F)Relative humidity 50%Reflected temperature +20°C (+69°F)Emissivity 0.9515.5.4 ProcedureYou can set the object parameters globally. You can also change the Emissivity,Re-flected temperature, and Object distance parameters locally for a measurement tool.Local parameters are normally only effective for a fixed setup, where each measurementtool is set to a specific object of interest. In a general handheld application, the global pa-rameters are usually sufficient.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 54

Application examples2727.1 Moisture & water damage27.1.1 GeneralIt is often possible to detect moisture and water damage in a house by using an infraredcamera. This is partly because the damaged area has a different heat conduction prop-erty and partly because it has a different thermal capacity to store heat than the sur-rounding material.NOTEMany factors can come into play as to how moisture or water damage will appear in an infrared image.For example, heating and cooling of these parts takes place at different rates depending on the materialand the time of day. For this reason, it is important that other methods are used as well to check formoisture or water damage.27.1.2 FigureThe image below shows extensive water damage on an external wall where the waterhas penetrated the outer facing because of an incorrectly installed window ledge.27.2 Faulty contact in socket27.2.1 GeneralDepending on the type of connection a socket has, an improperly connected wire can re-sult in local temperature increase. This temperature increase is caused by the reducedcontact area between the connection point of the incoming wire and the socket , and canresult in an electrical fire.NOTEA socket’s construction may differ dramatically from one manufacturer to another. For this reason, differ-ent faults in a socket can lead to the same typical appearance in an infrared image.Local temperature increase can also result from improper contact between wire and socket, or from dif-ference in load.27.2.2 FigureThe image below shows a connection of a cable to a socket where improper contact inthe connection has resulted in local temperature increase.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 147
Application examples2727.3 Oxidized socket27.3.1 GeneralDepending on the type of socket and the environment in which the socket is installed, ox-ides may occur on the socket's contact surfaces. These oxides can lead to locally in-creased resistance when the socket is loaded, which can be seen in an infrared imageas local temperature increase.NOTEA socket’s construction may differ dramatically from one manufacturer to another. For this reason, differ-ent faults in a socket can lead to the same typical appearance in an infrared image.Local temperature increase can also result from improper contact between a wire and socket, or fromdifference in load.27.3.2 FigureThe image below shows a series of fuses where one fuse has a raised temperature onthe contact surfaces against the fuse holder. Because of the fuse holder’s blank metal,the temperature increase is not visible there, while it is visible on the fuse’s ceramicmaterial.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 148
Application examples2727.4 Insulation deficiencies27.4.1 GeneralInsulation deficiencies may result from insulation losing volume over the course of timeand thereby not entirely filling the cavity in a frame wall.An infrared camera allows you to see these insulation deficiencies because they eitherhave a different heat conduction property than sections with correctly installed insulation,and/or show the area where air is penetrating the frame of the building.NOTEWhen you are inspecting a building, the temperature difference between the inside and outside shouldbe at least 10°C (18°F). Studs, water pipes, concrete columns, and similar components may resemblean insulation deficiency in an infrared image. Minor differences may also occur naturally.27.4.2 FigureIn the image below, insulation in the roof framing is lacking. Due to the absence of insula-tion, air has forced its way into the roof structure, which thus takes on a different charac-teristic appearance in the infrared image.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 149
Application examples2727.5 Draft27.5.1 GeneralDraft can be found under baseboards, around door and window casings, and above ceil-ing trim. This type of draft is often possible to see with an infrared camera, as a coolerairstream cools down the surrounding surface.NOTEWhen you are investigating draft in a house, there should be sub-atmospheric pressure in the house.Close all doors, windows, and ventilation ducts, and allow the kitchen fan to run for a while before youtake the infrared images.An infrared image of draft often shows a typical stream pattern. You can see this stream pattern clearlyin the picture below.Also keep in mind that drafts can be concealed by heat from floor heating circuits.27.5.2 FigureThe image below shows a ceiling hatch where faulty installation has resulted in a strongdraft.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 150

Thermographic measurementtechniques3030.1 IntroductionAn infrared camera measures and images the emitted infrared radiation from an object.The fact that radiation is a function of object surface temperature makes it possible forthe camera to calculate and display this temperature.However, the radiation measured by the camera does not only depend on the tempera-ture of the object but is also a function of the emissivity. Radiation also originates fromthe surroundings and is reflected in the object. The radiation from the object and the re-flected radiation will also be influenced by the absorption of the atmosphere.To measure temperature accurately, it is therefore necessary to compensate for the ef-fects of a number of different radiation sources. This is done on-line automatically by thecamera. The following object parameters must, however, be supplied for the camera:• The emissivity of the object• The reflected apparent temperature• The distance between the object and the camera• The relative humidity• Temperature of the atmosphere30.2 EmissivityThe most important object parameter to set correctly is the emissivity which, in short, is ameasure of how much radiation is emitted from the object, compared to that from a per-fect blackbody of the same temperature.Normally, object materials and surface treatments exhibit emissivity ranging from approx-imately 0.1 to 0.95. A highly polished (mirror) surface falls below 0.1, while an oxidizedor painted surface has a higher emissivity. Oil-based paint, regardless of color in the visi-ble spectrum, has an emissivity over 0.9 in the infrared. Human skin exhibits an emissiv-ity 0.97 to 0.98.Non-oxidized metals represent an extreme case of perfect opacity and high reflexivity,which does not vary greatly with wavelength. Consequently, the emissivity of metals islow – only increasing with temperature. For non-metals, emissivity tends to be high, anddecreases with temperature.30.2.1 Finding the emissivity of a sample30.2.1.1 Step 1: Determining reflected apparent temperatureUse one of the following two methods to determine reflected apparent temperature:#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 157
Thermographic measurement techniques3030.2.1.1.1 Method 1: Direct methodFollow this procedure:1. Look for possible reflection sources, considering that the incident angle = reflectionangle (a = b).Figure 30.1 1 = Reflection source2. If the reflection source is a spot source, modify the source by obstructing it using apiece if cardboard.Figure 30.2 1 = Reflection source#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 158
Thermographic measurement techniques303. Measure the radiation intensity (= apparent temperature) from the reflecting sourceusing the following settings:• Emissivity: 1.0• Dobj: 0You can measure the radiation intensity using one of the following two methods:Figure 30.3 1 = Reflection sourceNOTEUsing a thermocouple to measure reflected apparent temperature is not recommended for two impor-tant reasons:• A thermocouple does not measure radiation intensity• A thermocouple requires a very good thermal contact to the surface, usually by gluing and coveringthe sensor by a thermal isolator.30.2.1.1.2 Method 2: Reflector methodFollow this procedure:1. Crumble up a large piece of aluminum foil.2. Uncrumble the aluminum foil and attach it to a piece of cardboard of the same size.3. Put the piece of cardboard in front of the object you want to measure. Make sure thatthe side with aluminum foil points to the camera.4. Set the emissivity to 1.0.5. Measure the apparent temperature of the aluminum foil and write it down.Figure 30.4 Measuring the apparent temperature of the aluminum foil.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 159
Thermographic measurement techniques3030.2.1.2 Step 2: Determining the emissivityFollow this procedure:1. Select a place to put the sample.2. Determine and set reflected apparent temperature according to the previousprocedure.3. Put a piece of electrical tape with known high emissivity on the sample.4. Heat the sample at least 20 K above room temperature. Heating must be reasonablyeven.5. Focus and auto-adjust the camera, and freeze the image.6. Adjust Level and Span for best image brightness and contrast.7. Set emissivity to that of the tape (usually 0.97).8. Measure the temperature of the tape using one of the following measurementfunctions:•Isotherm (helps you to determine both the temperature and how evenly you haveheated the sample)•Spot (simpler)•Box Avg (good for surfaces with varying emissivity).9. Write down the temperature.10. Move your measurement function to the sample surface.11. Change the emissivity setting until you read the same temperature as your previousmeasurement.12. Write down the emissivity.NOTE• Avoid forced convection• Look for a thermally stable surrounding that will not generate spot reflections• Use high quality tape that you know is not transparent, and has a high emissivity you are certain of• This method assumes that the temperature of your tape and the sample surface are the same. Ifthey are not, your emissivity measurement will be wrong.30.3 Reflected apparent temperatureThis parameter is used to compensate for the radiation reflected in the object. If theemissivity is low and the object temperature relatively far from that of the reflected it willbe important to set and compensate for the reflected apparent temperature correctly.30.4 DistanceThe distance is the distance between the object and the front lens of the camera. Thisparameter is used to compensate for the following two facts:• That radiation from the target is absorbed by the atmosphere between the object andthe camera.• That radiation from the atmosphere itself is detected by the camera.30.5 Relative humidityThe camera can also compensate for the fact that the transmittance is also dependenton the relative humidity of the atmosphere. To do this set the relative humidity to the cor-rect value. For short distances and normal humidity the relative humidity can normally beleft at a default value of 50%.30.6 Other parametersIn addition, some cameras and analysis programs from FLIR Systems allow you to com-pensate for the following parameters:• Atmospheric temperature – i.e. the temperature of the atmosphere between the cam-era and the target• External optics temperature – i.e. the temperature of any external lenses or windowsused in front of the camera#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 160

History of infrared technology31Before the year 1800, the existence of the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spec-trum wasn't even suspected. The original significance of the infrared spectrum, or simply‘the infrared’ as it is often called, as a form of heat radiation is perhaps less obvious to-day than it was at the time of its discovery by Herschel in 1800.Figure 31.1 Sir William Herschel (1738–1822)The discovery was made accidentally during the search for a new optical material. SirWilliam Herschel – Royal Astronomer to King George III of England, and already famousfor his discovery of the planet Uranus – was searching for an optical filter material to re-duce the brightness of the sun’s image in telescopes during solar observations. Whiletesting different samples of colored glass which gave similar reductions in brightness hewas intrigued to find that some of the samples passed very little of the sun’s heat, whileothers passed so much heat that he risked eye damage after only a few seconds’observation.Herschel was soon convinced of the necessity of setting up a systematic experiment,with the objective of finding a single material that would give the desired reduction inbrightness as well as the maximum reduction in heat. He began the experiment by ac-tually repeating Newton’s prism experiment, but looking for the heating effect rather thanthe visual distribution of intensity in the spectrum. He first blackened the bulb of a sensi-tive mercury-in-glass thermometer with ink, and with this as his radiation detector he pro-ceeded to test the heating effect of the various colors of the spectrum formed on the topof a table by passing sunlight through a glass prism. Other thermometers, placed outsidethe sun’s rays, served as controls.As the blackened thermometer was moved slowly along the colors of the spectrum, thetemperature readings showed a steady increase from the violet end to the red end. Thiswas not entirely unexpected, since the Italian researcher, Landriani, in a similar experi-ment in 1777 had observed much the same effect. It was Herschel, however, who wasthe first to recognize that there must be a point where the heating effect reaches a maxi-mum, and that measurements confined to the visible portion of the spectrum failed to lo-cate this point.Figure 31.2 Marsilio Landriani (1746–1815)Moving the thermometer into the dark region beyond the red end of the spectrum, Her-schel confirmed that the heating continued to increase. The maximum point, when hefound it, lay well beyond the red end – in what is known today as the ‘infraredwavelengths’.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 162
History of infrared technology31When Herschel revealed his discovery, he referred to this new portion of the electromag-netic spectrum as the ‘thermometrical spectrum’. The radiation itself he sometimes re-ferred to as ‘dark heat’, or simply ‘the invisible rays’. Ironically, and contrary to popularopinion, it wasn't Herschel who originated the term ‘infrared’. The word only began to ap-pear in print around 75 years later, and it is still unclear who should receive credit as theoriginator.Herschel’s use of glass in the prism of his original experiment led to some early contro-versies with his contemporaries about the actual existence of the infrared wavelengths.Different investigators, in attempting to confirm his work, used various types of glass in-discriminately, having different transparencies in the infrared. Through his later experi-ments, Herschel was aware of the limited transparency of glass to the newly-discoveredthermal radiation, and he was forced to conclude that optics for the infrared would prob-ably be doomed to the use of reflective elements exclusively (i.e. plane and curved mir-rors). Fortunately, this proved to be true only until 1830, when the Italian investigator,Melloni, made his great discovery that naturally occurring rock salt (NaCl) – which wasavailable in large enough natural crystals to be made into lenses and prisms – is remark-ably transparent to the infrared. The result was that rock salt became the principal infra-red optical material, and remained so for the next hundred years, until the art of syntheticcrystal growing was mastered in the 1930’s.Figure 31.3 Macedonio Melloni (1798–1854)Thermometers, as radiation detectors, remained unchallenged until 1829, the year Nobiliinvented the thermocouple. (Herschel’s own thermometer could be read to 0.2 °C(0.036 °F), and later models were able to be read to 0.05 °C (0.09 °F)). Then a break-through occurred; Melloni connected a number of thermocouples in series to form thefirst thermopile. The new device was at least 40 times as sensitive as the best thermome-ter of the day for detecting heat radiation – capable of detecting the heat from a personstanding three meters away.The first so-called ‘heat-picture’ became possible in 1840, the result of work by Sir JohnHerschel, son of the discoverer of the infrared and a famous astronomer in his own right.Based upon the differential evaporation of a thin film of oil when exposed to a heat pat-tern focused upon it, the thermal image could be seen by reflected light where the inter-ference effects of the oil film made the image visible to the eye. Sir John also managedto obtain a primitive record of the thermal image on paper, which he called a‘thermograph’.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 163
History of infrared technology31Figure 31.4 Samuel P. Langley (1834–1906)The improvement of infrared-detector sensitivity progressed slowly. Another major break-through, made by Langley in 1880, was the invention of the bolometer. This consisted ofa thin blackened strip of platinum connected in one arm of a Wheatstone bridge circuitupon which the infrared radiation was focused and to which a sensitive galvanometer re-sponded. This instrument is said to have been able to detect the heat from a cow at adistance of 400 meters.An English scientist, Sir James Dewar, first introduced the use of liquefied gases as cool-ing agents (such as liquid nitrogen with a temperature of -196 °C (-320.8 °F)) in low tem-perature research. In 1892 he invented a unique vacuum insulating container in which itis possible to store liquefied gases for entire days. The common ‘thermos bottle’, usedfor storing hot and cold drinks, is based upon his invention.Between the years 1900 and 1920, the inventors of the world ‘discovered’ the infrared.Many patents were issued for devices to detect personnel, artillery, aircraft, ships – andeven icebergs. The first operating systems, in the modern sense, began to be developedduring the 1914–18 war, when both sides had research programs devoted to the militaryexploitation of the infrared. These programs included experimental systems for enemyintrusion/detection, remote temperature sensing, secure communications, and ‘flying tor-pedo’ guidance. An infrared search system tested during this period was able to detectan approaching airplane at a distance of 1.5 km (0.94 miles), or a person more than 300meters (984 ft.) away.The most sensitive systems up to this time were all based upon variations of the bolome-ter idea, but the period between the two wars saw the development of two revolutionarynew infrared detectors: the image converter and the photon detector. At first, the imageconverter received the greatest attention by the military, because it enabled an observerfor the first time in history to literally ‘see in the dark’. However, the sensitivity of the im-age converter was limited to the near infrared wavelengths, and the most interesting mili-tary targets (i.e. enemy soldiers) had to be illuminated by infrared search beams. Sincethis involved the risk of giving away the observer’s position to a similarly-equipped enemyobserver, it is understandable that military interest in the image converter eventuallyfaded.The tactical military disadvantages of so-called 'active’ (i.e. search beam-equipped) ther-mal imaging systems provided impetus following the 1939–45 war for extensive secretmilitary infrared-research programs into the possibilities of developing ‘passive’ (nosearch beam) systems around the extremely sensitive photon detector. During this peri-od, military secrecy regulations completely prevented disclosure of the status of infrared-imaging technology. This secrecy only began to be lifted in the middle of the 1950’s, andfrom that time adequate thermal-imaging devices finally began to be available to civilianscience and industry.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 164
Theory of thermography3232.1 IntroductionThe subjects of infrared radiation and the related technique of thermography are still newto many who will use an infrared camera. In this section the theory behind thermographywill be given.32.2 The electromagnetic spectrumThe electromagnetic spectrum is divided arbitrarily into a number of wavelength regions,called bands, distinguished by the methods used to produce and detect the radiation.There is no fundamental difference between radiation in the different bands of the elec-tromagnetic spectrum. They are all governed by the same laws and the only differencesare those due to differences in wavelength.Figure 32.1 The electromagnetic spectrum. 1: X-ray; 2: UV; 3: Visible; 4: IR; 5: Microwaves; 6:Radiowaves.Thermography makes use of the infrared spectral band. At the short-wavelength end theboundary lies at the limit of visual perception, in the deep red. At the long-wavelengthend it merges with the microwave radio wavelengths, in the millimeter range.The infrared band is often further subdivided into four smaller bands, the boundaries ofwhich are also arbitrarily chosen. They include: the near infrared (0.75–3 μm), the middleinfrared (3–6 μm), the far infrared (6–15 μm) and the extreme infrared (15–100 μm).Although the wavelengths are given in μm (micrometers), other units are often still usedto measure wavelength in this spectral region, e.g. nanometer (nm) and Ångström (Å).The relationships between the different wavelength measurements is:32.3 Blackbody radiationA blackbody is defined as an object which absorbs all radiation that impinges on it at anywavelength. The apparent misnomer black relating to an object emitting radiation is ex-plained by Kirchhoff’s Law (after Gustav Robert Kirchhoff, 1824–1887), which states thata body capable of absorbing all radiation at any wavelength is equally capable in theemission of radiation.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 165
Theory of thermography32Figure 32.2 Gustav Robert Kirchhoff (1824–1887)The construction of a blackbody source is, in principle, very simple. The radiation charac-teristics of an aperture in an isotherm cavity made of an opaque absorbing material rep-resents almost exactly the properties of a blackbody. A practical application of theprinciple to the construction of a perfect absorber of radiation consists of a box that islight tight except for an aperture in one of the sides. Any radiation which then enters thehole is scattered and absorbed by repeated reflections so only an infinitesimal fractioncan possibly escape. The blackness which is obtained at the aperture is nearly equal toa blackbody and almost perfect for all wavelengths.By providing such an isothermal cavity with a suitable heater it becomes what is termedacavity radiator. An isothermal cavity heated to a uniform temperature generates black-body radiation, the characteristics of which are determined solely by the temperature ofthe cavity. Such cavity radiators are commonly used as sources of radiation in tempera-ture reference standards in the laboratory for calibrating thermographic instruments,such as a FLIR Systems camera for example.If the temperature of blackbody radiation increases to more than 525°C (977°F), thesource begins to be visible so that it appears to the eye no longer black. This is the incipi-ent red heat temperature of the radiator, which then becomes orange or yellow as thetemperature increases further. In fact, the definition of the so-called color temperature ofan object is the temperature to which a blackbody would have to be heated to have thesame appearance.Now consider three expressions that describe the radiation emitted from a blackbody.32.3.1 Planck’s lawFigure 32.3 Max Planck (1858–1947)Max Planck (1858–1947) was able to describe the spectral distribution of the radiationfrom a blackbody by means of the following formula:where:#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 166
Theory of thermography32Wλb Blackbody spectral radiant emittance at wavelength λ.cVelocity of light = 3 × 108m/sh Planck’s constant = 6.6 × 10-34 Joule sec.k Boltzmann’s constant = 1.4 × 10-23 Joule/K.T Absolute temperature (K) of a blackbody.λ Wavelength (μm).NOTEThe factor 10-6 is used since spectral emittance in the curves is expressed in Watt/m2, μm.Planck’s formula, when plotted graphically for various temperatures, produces a family ofcurves. Following any particular Planck curve, the spectral emittance is zero at λ = 0,then increases rapidly to a maximum at a wavelength λmax and after passing it ap-proaches zero again at very long wavelengths. The higher the temperature, the shorterthe wavelength at which maximum occurs.Figure 32.4 Blackbody spectral radiant emittance according to Planck’s law, plotted for various absolutetemperatures. 1: Spectral radiant emittance (W/cm2× 103(μm)); 2: Wavelength (μm)32.3.2 Wien’s displacement lawBy differentiating Planck’s formula with respect to λ, and finding the maximum, we have:This is Wien’s formula (after Wilhelm Wien, 1864–1928), which expresses mathemati-cally the common observation that colors vary from red to orange or yellow as the tem-perature of a thermal radiator increases. The wavelength of the color is the same as thewavelength calculated for λmax. A good approximation of the value of λmax for a givenblackbody temperature is obtained by applying the rule-of-thumb 3 000/T μm. Thus, avery hot star such as Sirius (11 000 K), emitting bluish-white light, radiates with the peakof spectral radiant emittance occurring within the invisible ultraviolet spectrum, at wave-length 0.27 μm.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 167
Theory of thermography32Figure 32.5 Wilhelm Wien (1864–1928)The sun (approx. 6 000 K) emits yellow light, peaking at about 0.5 μm in the middle ofthe visible light spectrum.At room temperature (300 K) the peak of radiant emittance lies at 9.7 μm, in the far infra-red, while at the temperature of liquid nitrogen (77 K) the maximum of the almost insignif-icant amount of radiant emittance occurs at 38 μm, in the extreme infrared wavelengths.Figure 32.6 Planckian curves plotted on semi-log scales from 100 K to 1000 K. The dotted line representsthe locus of maximum radiant emittance at each temperature as described by Wien's displacement law. 1:Spectral radiant emittance (W/cm2(μm)); 2: Wavelength (μm).32.3.3 Stefan-Boltzmann's lawBy integrating Planck’s formula from λ = 0 to λ = ∞, we obtain the total radiant emittance(Wb) of a blackbody:This is the Stefan-Boltzmann formula (after Josef Stefan, 1835–1893, and Ludwig Boltz-mann, 1844–1906), which states that the total emissive power of a blackbody is propor-tional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature. Graphically, Wbrepresents thearea below the Planck curve for a particular temperature. It can be shown that the radiantemittance in the interval λ = 0 to λmax is only 25% of the total, which represents about theamount of the sun’s radiation which lies inside the visible light spectrum.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 168
Theory of thermography32Figure 32.7 Josef Stefan (1835–1893), and Ludwig Boltzmann (1844–1906)Using the Stefan-Boltzmann formula to calculate the power radiated by the human body,at a temperature of 300 K and an external surface area of approx. 2 m2, we obtain 1 kW.This power loss could not be sustained if it were not for the compensating absorption ofradiation from surrounding surfaces, at room temperatures which do not vary too drasti-cally from the temperature of the body – or, of course, the addition of clothing.32.3.4 Non-blackbody emittersSo far, only blackbody radiators and blackbody radiation have been discussed. However,real objects almost never comply with these laws over an extended wavelength region –although they may approach the blackbody behavior in certain spectral intervals. For ex-ample, a certain type of white paint may appear perfectly white in the visible light spec-trum, but becomes distinctly gray at about 2 μm, and beyond 3 μm it is almost black.There are three processes which can occur that prevent a real object from acting like ablackbody: a fraction of the incident radiation α may be absorbed, a fraction ρ may be re-flected, and a fraction τ may be transmitted. Since all of these factors are more or lesswavelength dependent, the subscript λ is used to imply the spectral dependence of theirdefinitions. Thus:• The spectral absorptance αλ= the ratio of the spectral radiant power absorbed by anobject to that incident upon it.• The spectral reflectance ρλ= the ratio of the spectral radiant power reflected by an ob-ject to that incident upon it.• The spectral transmittance τλ= the ratio of the spectral radiant power transmittedthrough an object to that incident upon it.The sum of these three factors must always add up to the whole at any wavelength, sowe have the relation:For opaque materials τλ= 0 and the relation simplifies to:Another factor, called the emissivity, is required to describe the fraction ε of the radiantemittance of a blackbody produced by an object at a specific temperature. Thus, wehave the definition:The spectral emissivity ελ= the ratio of the spectral radiant power from an object to thatfrom a blackbody at the same temperature and wavelength.Expressed mathematically, this can be written as the ratio of the spectral emittance ofthe object to that of a blackbody as follows:Generally speaking, there are three types of radiation source, distinguished by the waysin which the spectral emittance of each varies with wavelength.• A blackbody, for which ελ= ε = 1• A graybody, for which ελ= ε = constant less than 1#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 169
Theory of thermography32• A selective radiator, for which ε varies with wavelengthAccording to Kirchhoff’s law, for any material the spectral emissivity and spectral absorp-tance of a body are equal at any specified temperature and wavelength. That is:From this we obtain, for an opaque material (since αλ+ ρλ= 1):For highly polished materials ελapproaches zero, so that for a perfectly reflecting materi-al (i.e. a perfect mirror) we have:For a graybody radiator, the Stefan-Boltzmann formula becomes:This states that the total emissive power of a graybody is the same as a blackbody at thesame temperature reduced in proportion to the value of ε from the graybody.Figure 32.8 Spectral radiant emittance of three types of radiators. 1: Spectral radiant emittance; 2: Wave-length; 3: Blackbody; 4: Selective radiator; 5: Graybody.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 170
Theory of thermography32Figure 32.9 Spectral emissivity of three types of radiators. 1: Spectral emissivity; 2: Wavelength; 3: Black-body; 4: Graybody; 5: Selective radiator.32.4 Infrared semi-transparent materialsConsider now a non-metallic, semi-transparent body – let us say, in the form of a thick flatplate of plastic material. When the plate is heated, radiation generated within its volumemust work its way toward the surfaces through the material in which it is partially ab-sorbed. Moreover, when it arrives at the surface, some of it is reflected back into the inte-rior. The back-reflected radiation is again partially absorbed, but some of it arrives at theother surface, through which most of it escapes; part of it is reflected back again.Although the progressive reflections become weaker and weaker they must all be addedup when the total emittance of the plate is sought. When the resulting geometrical seriesis summed, the effective emissivity of a semi-transparent plate is obtained as:When the plate becomes opaque this formula is reduced to the single formula:This last relation is a particularly convenient one, because it is often easier to measurereflectance than to measure emissivity directly.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 171
The measurement formula33As already mentioned, when viewing an object, the camera receives radiation not onlyfrom the object itself. It also collects radiation from the surroundings reflected via the ob-ject surface. Both these radiation contributions become attenuated to some extent by theatmosphere in the measurement path. To this comes a third radiation contribution fromthe atmosphere itself.This description of the measurement situation, as illustrated in the figure below, is so fara fairly true description of the real conditions. What has been neglected could for in-stance be sun light scattering in the atmosphere or stray radiation from intense radiationsources outside the field of view. Such disturbances are difficult to quantify, however, inmost cases they are fortunately small enough to be neglected. In case they are not negli-gible, the measurement configuration is likely to be such that the risk for disturbance isobvious, at least to a trained operator. It is then his responsibility to modify the measure-ment situation to avoid the disturbance e.g. by changing the viewing direction, shieldingoff intense radiation sources etc.Accepting the description above, we can use the figure below to derive a formula for thecalculation of the object temperature from the calibrated camera output.Figure 33.1 A schematic representation of the general thermographic measurement situation.1: Sur-roundings; 2: Object; 3: Atmosphere; 4: CameraAssume that the received radiation power W from a blackbody source of temperatureTsource on short distance generates a camera output signal Usource that is proportional tothe power input (power linear camera). We can then write (Equation 1):or, with simplified notation:where C is a constant.Should the source be a graybody with emittance ε, the received radiation would conse-quently be εWsource.We are now ready to write the three collected radiation power terms:1. Emission from the object = ετWobj, where ε is the emittance of the object and τ is thetransmittance of the atmosphere. The object temperature is Tobj.#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 172
The measurement formula332. Reflected emission from ambient sources = (1 – ε)τWrefl, where (1 – ε) is the reflec-tance of the object. The ambient sources have the temperature Trefl.It has here been assumed that the temperature Trefl is the same for all emitting surfa-ces within the halfsphere seen from a point on the object surface. This is of coursesometimes a simplification of the true situation. It is, however, a necessary simplifica-tion in order to derive a workable formula, and Trefl can – at least theoretically – be giv-en a value that represents an efficient temperature of a complex surrounding.Note also that we have assumed that the emittance for the surroundings = 1. This iscorrect in accordance with Kirchhoff’s law: All radiation impinging on the surroundingsurfaces will eventually be absorbed by the same surfaces. Thus the emittance = 1.(Note though that the latest discussion requires the complete sphere around the ob-ject to be considered.)3. Emission from the atmosphere = (1 – τ)τWatm, where (1 – τ) is the emittance of the at-mosphere. The temperature of the atmosphere is Tatm.The total received radiation power can now be written (Equation 2):We multiply each term by the constant C of Equation 1 and replace the CW products bythe corresponding U according to the same equation, and get (Equation 3):Solve Equation 3 for Uobj (Equation 4):This is the general measurement formula used in all the FLIR Systems thermographicequipment. The voltages of the formula are:Table 33.1 VoltagesUobj Calculated camera output voltage for a blackbody of temperatureTobj i.e. a voltage that can be directly converted into true requestedobject temperature.Utot Measured camera output voltage for the actual case.Urefl Theoretical camera output voltage for a blackbody of temperatureTrefl according to the calibration.Uatm Theoretical camera output voltage for a blackbody of temperatureTatm according to the calibration.The operator has to supply a number of parameter values for the calculation:• the object emittance ε,• the relative humidity,• Tatm• object distance (Dobj)• the (effective) temperature of the object surroundings, or the reflected ambient tem-perature Trefl, and• the temperature of the atmosphere TatmThis task could sometimes be a heavy burden for the operator since there are normallyno easy ways to find accurate values of emittance and atmospheric transmittance for theactual case. The two temperatures are normally less of a problem provided the surround-ings do not contain large and intense radiation sources.A natural question in this connection is: How important is it to know the right values ofthese parameters? It could though be of interest to get a feeling for this problem alreadyhere by looking into some different measurement cases and compare the relative#T559954; r.28105/28105; en-US 173
The measurement formula33magnitudes of the three radiation terms. This will give indications about when it is impor-tant to use correct values of which parameters.The figures below illustrates the relative magnitudes of the three radiation contributionsfor three different object temperatures, two emittances, and two spectral ranges: SW andLW. Remaining parameters have the following fixed values:• τ = 0.88• Trefl = +20°C (+68°F)• Tatm = +20°C (+68°F)It is obvious that measurement of low object temperatures are more critical than measur-ing high temperatures since the ‘disturbing’ radiation sources are relatively much stron-ger in the first case. Should also the object emittance be low, the situation would be stillmore difficult.We have finally to answer a question about the importance of being allowed to use thecalibration curve above the highest calibration point, what we call extrapolation. Imaginethat we in a certain case measure Utot = 4.5 volts. The highest calibration point for thecamera was in the order of 4.1 volts, a value unknown to the operator. Thus, even if theobject happened to be a blackbody, i.e. Uobj = Utot, we are actually performing extrapola-tion of the calibration curve when converting 4.5 volts into temperature.Let us now assume that the object is not black, it has an emittance of 0.75, and the trans-mittance is 0.92. We also assume that the two second terms of Equation 4 amount to 0.5volts together. Computation of Uobj by means of Equation 4 then results in Uobj = 4.5 /0.75 / 0.92 – 0.5 = 6.0. This is a rather extreme extrapolation, particularly when consider-ing that the video amplifier might limit the output to 5 volts! Note, though, that the applica-tion of the calibration curve is a theoretical procedure where no electronic or otherlimitations exist. We trust that if there had been no signal limitations in the camera, and ifit had been calibrated far beyond 5 volts, the resulting curve would have been very muchthe same as our real curve extrapolated beyond 4.1 volts, provided the calibration algo-rithm is based on radiation physics, like the FLIR Systems algorithm. Of course theremust be a limit to such extrapolations.Figure 33.2 Relative magnitudes of radiation sources under varying measurement conditions (SW cam-era). 1: Object temperature; 2: Emittance; Obj: Object radiation; Refl: Reflected radiation; Atm: atmos-phere radiation.
