Radiative heat transfer characteristics from the surface of a substance coated with a high-emissivity material have been examined from the measured two-dimensional (2D) temperature distribution using two-color thermometry principle. The technique utilized a charge coupled device camera and optical filters having either wide or narrow wavelength bandpass filters. The results obtained were compared to evaluate the accuracy of the temperature measurements. The 2D emissivity distributions were also derived from the measured 2D temperature distributions. The results indicate that the substrate coated with high-emissivity material exhibit high emission of radiation, resulting in effective cooling. The enhanced emissivity of materials also results in improved radiative heat transfer in heating furnaces and other high-temperature applications. The emissivity measured with the wide-bandpass filters increased with temperature. Atmospheric absorption, mainly due to humidity, made a negligible contribution to the total spectral intensity and to the temperature measurements. The small discrepancies are attributed to the dependence of emissivity on wavelength. Thus, the use of narrow-bandpass filters in thermometry is advantageous over the wide-bandpass ones.
