Water Heat Pipe Blackbody as a Reference Spectral Radiance Source Between 50 C and 250 C

April 17, 2006
Author(s)
Mart Noorma, Sergey Mekhontsev, V B. Khromchenko, Maritoni A. Litorja, Claus Cagran, Jinan Zeng, Leonard M. Hanssen
Realization of a radiometric temperature scale for near ambient temperatures with high accuracy is crucial for a number of demanding military and commercial applications. Reliable radiation sources with high stability and good spatial uniformity have to be

Radiation Properties of IR Calibrators With V-Grooved Surfaces

April 1, 2006
Author(s)
Leonard M. Hanssen, A Prokhorov, Sergey Mekhontsev
Use of linear or concentric grooves is a well-known approach for increasing the surface emissivity to enable the construction of compact blackbody radiators, improve absorptance of stray radiation traps, baffles and thermal radiation detectors, as well as

Infrared Emittance Measurements at NIST

October 5, 2005
Author(s)
Leonard M. Hanssen, Benjamin K. Tsai, Sergey Mekhontsev
A new capability for the measurement of the temperature-dependent emittance of specular samples in the near infrared spectral region has been developed in NIST s Infrared Spectrophotometry Laboratory to provide emittance measurements and standards for a

Emissivity Modeling of Thermal Radiation Sources With Concentric Grooves

July 1, 2004
Author(s)
A Prokhorov, Sergey Mekhontsev, Leonard Hanssen
Monte Carlo based specialized software has been applied to the statistical modeling of effective emissivity of radiators with concentric grooves of trapezoidal and triangular profile. A specular-diffuse model is used in which the thermal emission from the

Monte Carlo Modeling of an Integrating Sphere Reflectometer

July 1, 2003
Author(s)
A Prokhorov, Sergey Mekhontsev, Leonard Hanssen
The Monte Carlo method has been applied to numerical modeling of an integrating sphere designed for hemispherical-directional reflectance factor measurements. It is shown that a conventional algorithm of inverse ray tracing used for estimation of
