The accurate measurement of temperature is a vital parameter inmany fields of engineering and scientific practice. Responding toemerging trends, this classic reference has been fully revised toinclude coverage of the latest instrumentation and measurementmethods.
Featuring:
* Brand new chapters on computerised temperature measuring systems,signal conditioning and temperature measurement in medicine
* Sections on noise thermometers, the development of photoelectricand multi-wavelength pyrometers and the latest IEC (InternationalElectrotechnical Commission) standards
* Coverage of fibre optic thermometers, imaging of temperaturefields and measurement in hazardous areas
* Examination of virtual instruments in temperature measurement,and new methods for themometer calibration
* Many numerical examples, tables and diagrams
Practising instrument engineers, graduate students and researchersin the fields of mechanical, electrical and electronic engineeringand in other industrial areas will welcome this balanced approachto both the theory and practice of temperature measurement.
