Yes, that is what a pyrometer is used for. To the question below- no, that is not a fuse it is a heat sink.

Transfer of radiant energy is?

Mostly done by infra red EM radiation, since this is emitted by hot bodies and absorbed by bodies that receive it.


What do you mean by Radiant energy?

Radiant energy is the energy of electromagnetic waves. The quantity of radiant energy may be calculated by integrating radiant flux (or power) with respect to time and, like all forms of energy, its SI unit is the joule. The term is used particularly when radiation is emitted by a source into the surrounding environment. Radiant energy may be visible or invisible to the human eye.


What instrument measures thermal radiation?

A pyrometer or pyrometric cones are used to measure furnace and kiln temperatures resulting from radiant heat. A pyrometer is a ceramic base into which 4 to 6 pyrometric cones, which melt at different temperatures, are inserted. Placing this into a furnace opening which is out of the normal gas passes, in direct view of the flame, and can be sealed from in-leakage of cooler air, will give you a general idea of a flame temperature (radiant heat). If it is inserted into a gas pass it will give convective heat temperatures. By knowing the temperature at which each cone melts you can get a close approximation of a flame or furnace temperature. More modern line of sight infrared-laser thermal imaging guns can give direct readings of surface or flame temperatures, and are more accurate. Thermocouples though must be used in convective gas passes.

What type of solar radiation do you mostly get from the sun?

Solar radiation is the radiant energy that is emitted by the sun. About half of the solar radiation is short-wave part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The second half is mostly in the near-infrared part.


What is the production and transmission of radiant energy?

. . is often accomplished using light bulbs. Radiant energy is commonly used at wavelengths from 30 km down to the wavelength of x-rays and below. It is usually described as electromagnetic radiation.
