"Pyrometry: A Practical Treatise on the Measurement of High Temperatures" by Chas. R. Darling is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book serves as an extensive guide on the principles, methods, and instruments used to measure high temperatures, focusing primarily on practical applications in various industries and laboratories. This work is particularly relevant for engineers and scientists involved in thermal measurement processes. At the start of the book, the author outlines the historical development of pyrometry and its importance in industrial practices. He discusses the limitations of traditional thermometers when measuring high temperatures and introduces various types of pyrometers, such as thermo-electric and resistance pyrometers. The opening also emphasizes the significance of accurate temperature measurement for industrial operations and highlights the evolution of instruments since early attempts by pioneers like Josiah Wedgwood. Overall, it sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of the measurement techniques and technologies utilized in pyrometry.
