High-Temperature Measurements (Classic Reprint) Paperback -

The measurement of high temperatures was considered for a long time to be a very difficult operation and of a very uncertain precision. There were cited with admira tion a half-dozen determinations seeming to merit some confidence. During the last few years the question has made considerable progress, and we possess to-day several sufficiently precise pyrometers whose usage is rapidly spreading among scientific and industrial laboratories. Before describing them, perhaps it will not be useless to indicate the services that they may render to science and to industry, by giving a brief summary of similar services that they have already rendered.
