Abstract: Calorimetric pyranometers use plane black thermal sensors which absorb solar radiation. If a thermoresistive transducer (sensor-detector combination) is used, the temperature measured is nearer the ...

Abstract: A small signal analysis of a feedback radiation meter circuit is presented with a view to estimate its effective response time, taking into account parameters of a practical operational amplifier: ...

Abstract: In the experimental determination of the response time of a thermoresistive sensor to a radiation step, one needs to monitor the variation of the ohmic resistance of the sensor with time. ...
