HOW TO MEASURE TEMPERATURE OF SURFACE

Question

Accepted Answer

Temperature of a surface can be measured using various methods such as contact, non-contact, and infrared thermometers.

Contact thermometers measure temperature by direct contact with the surface, such as a thermocouple or RTD sensor.
Non-contact thermometers measure temperature without touching the surface, such as a pyrometer or thermal imaging camera.
Infrared thermometers measure temperature by detecting the infrared radiation emitted by the surface.
Factors such as emissivity, distance, and ambient temperature can affect the accuracy of temperature measurement.
Calibration of the thermometer is important to ensure accurate readings.
