Book Description

A compilation is presented of original test data in the form of graphs on emittance, reflectance, and absorptance of stainless steels. The data were extracted from the literature published from 1940 to 1959 inclusive, and some 1960 literature. The data are separated according to material and to the type of measurement, whether spectral or total. The referenceinformation sheets accompanying each graph gives the names of the investigators and the reference from which the data were obtained. Notations of composition, surface condition of the test samples, and methods and conditions of measurement are given when available.
