In the present paper, based on the linearity spectral emissivity model with two parameters in the narrow investigated waveband, we extend tri-wavelength pyrometry to tri-band pyrometry through waveband measurements of radiation temperature. In tri-band pyrometry, in order to realize the non-distortion measurement, considering the effect of the dynamic range and the minimum sensibility of the sensor on the coupling relation of multi-channel signals, the restriction condition of the effective temperature measurement range is discussed. However, under the assumption of the fixed sensor parameters, the measurement bandwidth of the sensor is an important influencing factor to the effective temperature measurement range in applications of tri-band pyrometry.

The complexity of the spectral emissivity of actual surfaces is the key point in the research and applications of radiation temperature measurement, resulting in the difficulty in the achievement of the temperature measurement. In the present paper, based on the discussions of the Taylor expansion, the non-dimension wavelength and the exponent, the authors describe the mathematical expression of the spectral emissivity of actual surfaces, and establish the general spectral emissivity function. Through the fitting of experimental data of the spectral emissivities of different metals at different temperatures, the applicability of the spectral emissivity function is verified which especially becomes the fundamental in the research of primary spectrum pyrometry.

In the applications of primary spectrum pyrometry to the detection of temperature, through the analysis of the coupled multi-channel signals, the authors investigated the necessary condition under which all temperatures can be measured simultaneously and effectively. For the case not satisfying the above condition, the authors put forward the concept of temperature field partition. And the process of the temperature field partition is detailedly described, and the simulation results are given.

Article Synopsis
  • Correlated color temperature (CCT) and thermodynamic temperature are distinct properties of radiation sources, but their mathematical relationship can be established.
  • The authors analyzed how the difference between CCT and thermodynamic temperature changes based on the emissivity parameter.
  • Their theoretical and numerical results suggest that a colorimeter, typically used for measuring CCT, could also function as a pyrometer for determining thermodynamic temperature.
