Question

What instrument measures very high temperatures-not looking for thermometer.


Depending upon how hot the temperature is that you are trying to measure, you might use a thermistor, thermocouple, or optical pyrometer, to name just three. I have used an optical pyrometer to measure the temperature of an electrically heated furnace that was red-orange hot.I hope this helps.


Thanks Dr. Bob! I just got 5 points extra credit.
