METHOD FOR AN IR-RADIATION -- BASED TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT AND IR-RADIATION -- BASED TEMPERATURE MEASURING DEVICE
First Claim
1. A method for an IR-radiation-based temperature measurement in an object (7), comprising contacting the object (7) with a reference element (3) in a heat-conducting fashion, with the reference element (3) having a surface comprising a first area (4) with high emissivity and a second area (5) with high reflectivity, separately detecting a first IR-radiation (9) emitted by the first area (4) of the reference element (3), a second IR-radiation (10) emitted by the second area (5) of the reference element (3), and a third IR-radiation (11) emitted by a surface area (12) of the object (7), determining at least one measurement each from the IR-radiations (9, 10, 11) detected, and determining an emissivity of the surface area (12) as well as a portion of the reflected IR-radiation of the object (7) from the measurements.

Abstract
In a temperature measuring device (1) an IR-radiation detector (2) and a reference element (3) are provided, connected to a surface (6) of an object (7) in a heat-conducting fashion, with a first area (4) with high emissivity and a second area (5) with high reflectivity formed at the reference element (3), and the IR-radiation detector (2) is equipped for a separate detection of IR-radiation (9, 10, 11) from the first and second areas (4, 5) and a surface area (12) of the object (7). A computer (13) in the IR-radiation detector (2) is equipped to deduct a temperature measurement for the object (7), corrected for emissions and reflections from the detected IR-radiations (9, 10, 11).
