Emissivity
The emissivity is used to describe the energy radiation
characteristic of a material (see also chapter Thermography
terms).
A material's emissivity depends on various factors:
composition,
surface condition,
temperature.
The emissivity can be between 0.01 and 1 (in theory). The
following rule of thumb can be assumed:
When a material is rather dark and its surface texture matt,
it probably has a high emissivity.
The brighter and smoother the surface of a material, the
lower will be its emissivity, presumably.
The higher the emissivity of the surface to be measured,
the better it is suited for non-contact temperature
measurement by use of a pyrometer or thermal imaging
camera, since falsifying temperature reflections can be
neglected.
Entering a degree of emission as accurate as possible is
indispensable for a precise measurement.
Most organic materials have an emissivity of 0.95. Metals or
shiny materials come with a much lower value.
