Title: RELIABILITY OF TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT IN THE HIGH-TEMPERATURE VACUUM SINTERING FURNACE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4112894

Details of an operation to substantiate optical pyrometer readings on heated powder metallurgy compacts by means of thermocouples are given. It was found that the optical pyrometer method gave readings in a high-temperature vacuum sintering furnace within 35 deg C of those obtained using a thermocouple. A tungsten-molybdenum thermocouple is an accurate method for use in this type furnace, and the compensation for a room temperature cold junction should be added algebraically. (J.R.D.)
