Body
International Technology Corporation developed the emissometer. This instrument is placed above a heated sample and radiation from sample is focused on a detector within the instrument. Rising temperature, determined by heat sensing equipment, indicates degree of emittance which is measured and displayed on a meter. Emissometer permits easy testing of various experimental coatings and also helps determine how the coatings will react to increases in temperatures or time in use. (Information important to development of efficient solar collectors.)
