Synopsis
Thermometry is a discipline with a history of millennia, with the earliest accounts of temperature measurement dating back to the 1600s when thermometers were first invented. At the time this book was written, accurate temperature measurement had become important for modern technologies such as Bessemer steel and the internal combustion engine. However, the complexities of measuring temperature above 1000° C meant there was a need for a practical and adaptable guide for those working with high temperatures. This book was written to fill that gap. The author meticulously presents a method of constructing and testing high-temperature thermometers and encourages those working in the field to submit their own findings to expand the accuracy and reliability of high-temperature thermometry. Republished here with enhanced typesetting, this book is a valuable contribution to the field of thermometry and is essential reading for anyone who works with high temperatures.
