Abstract

A new technique has been developed for the direct measurement of the normal spectral emissivity at several wavelengths in pulse-heating conditions, adding some novel features to previous versions of this type of apparatus. Pulse-heating experiments were performed on niobium strip specimens, taking the specimen from room temperature to the melting point using rapid resistive self-heating. The normal spectral emissivity was measured at three wavelengths by a multi-wavelength reflectometric technique. At the same time, the radiance temperature was measured at the same wavelengths by a high-speed pyrometer from approximately 1100 K to the melting point. Details of the method, the measurement apparatus, and the calibration technique are described. Preliminary results for the normal spectral emissivity of niobium at 633, 750, and 900 nm over a wide temperature range are presented.
