Abstract

A temperature measuring method measures the temperature of an object of measurement placed in a multiple reflection environment by using a radiation thermometer that uses an effective emissivity &egr;eff for measurement. The effective emissivity &egr;eff is calculated by using an expression:&egr;eff=(1−&agr;)·&egr;+&agr;·&egr;/{1−F·r·(1−&egr;)}F: View factor &egr;: Emissivity of the objectr: Reflectivity of a reflecting plate included in the radiation thermometer&agr;: Weighting factor for compensating effects of multiple reflection.
