Specific Distance

Measuring accurate surface temperature using a long-wave infrared camera and a non-contact thermometer, is very difficult due to variables such as atmospheric transmittance, emissivity, and influences from the environment such as atmosphere, sun, and dust. Conventional approaches use geometric correction or atmospheric transmittance modeling for temperature correction. However, these approaches have limitations in finding an accurate temperature because it is difficult to fully model a physical phenomenon. In this paper, a new temperature estimation method using distance information of LiDAR and digital count of long-wave infrared camera is proposed. The proposed method estimates the temperature by redefining the mapping function between radiation and digital count by distance. Using the proposed method, if the digital count is measured at a specific distance, accurate temperature can be estimated through the redefined Radiation-Digital count mapping function at a specific distance. The most important property of proposed method is that complex physical modeling is complemented by mapping function of specific distances. In addition, digital counts that change according to the distance at the same temperature required for the mapping function are obtained through linear interpolation using digital count of specific distances. Experimental results using a blackbody, long-wave infrared camera and LiDAR verify that the proposed method estimates the precise temperature. In addition, through experiments on humans, it shows the possibility of accurate body temperature measurement through fusion of long-wave infrared cameras and LiDAR in the future. However, as a limitation, a new calibration is required when the temperature and humidity of the atmosphere change.

Insulation Quality

The surroundings of objects in an open atmospheric space usually consist of a hypothetical surface of the sky and the surface of the ground. The aim of thermovision examination of objects located in open atmospheric space, especially buildings, is to determine the amount of heat loss or to assess the insulation quality parameters of walls, roofs and other building partitions. The tested surfaces, including elements of the outer shell of buildings, are often located at different angles to the ground surface and the sky. For the needs of thermovision testing of the considered objects and calculations concerning the radiation heat transfer, it is necessary to know the radiation parameters of the sky. These parameters include the equivalent radiative ambient temperature needed for thermovision measurements (including the temperature of the sky and the ground) and the overall radiative ambient temperature, which determines the heat loss by radiation from the tested surface. The article describes the method of determining the values of these temperatures on the basis of measuring the temperature of the sky with the use of a long-wave infrared camera and calculations. In order to verify the developed method, the results obtained with the use of the above-mentioned method were compared with the results obtained with the use of a pyrgeometer. The verification comprised the comparison of the heat flux of radiation from the sky, calculated on the basis of infrared camera measurements, with the energy flux emitted by the sky and measured with a pyrgeometer. The result of the verification is satisfactory.
