Metal‐carbon eutectic mixtures show much promise for high‐temperature standards applications. A research project, Novel, High temperature, Metal‐carbon Eutectic fixed points for Radiation Thermometry, Radiometry and Thermocouples (HIMERT) was accepted by the European Union (submitted under the Framework 5 Growth Programme) with a view to developing a unified European approach to these standards. The objectives of the project are to develop fixed‐point cells both for radiation thermometry/radiometry and contact thermometry calibration applications. In total three sets of cells will be developed, two for radiation thermometry (by BNM‐INM and NPL) and one for contact sensors (by BNM‐LNE) and comparisons performed of the differing crucible designs. The cells developed for radiation thermometry will be calibrated according to the ITS‐90 and measured radiometrically by a third participant (PTB …
For the sake of ensuring improved accuracy and traceability for temperature measurements above the copper point (1084 OC), four laboratories are joining their efforts in developing high-temperature fixed points based on eutectic transitions of metal-carbon mixtures [1]. These phase transitions, on the basis of radiation thermometry results presented thus far [2, 3], encouraged the participants to work towards two eventual applications: hightemperature fixed—point calibration sources for radiation thermometry, and fixed points for the calibration of contact thermometers, including Pt/Pd, Pt/Rh and W/Re thermocouples.
Here will be given the up-to—date works accomplished within or in relation with this project in the participating laboratories. The perspectives of this work are wide and should allow the usage of such fixed points at temperatures ranging from 1150 C to 2700 C. The remaining uncertainty concerns the …
The “Mise en pratique for the definition of the kelvin” (MeP-K) was established in April 2006 to be the repository of information required to perform a “practical measurement of temperature in accordance with the International System of Units (SI).” This article describes the progress made by the MeP-K HT (High Temperature Task Group) of CCT-WG5 (radiation thermometry) in drawing together the appropriate methods for accessing thermodynamic temperature above the silver point involving direct radiometric measurements on the one hand and indirect extrapolation, interpolation, and least-squares fitting on the other. An examination of the uncertainties and a brief discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the various approaches are given. A summary of the remaining issues to be resolved concludes the article.
