We were proud to share new results from ThermoSI work at TEMPMEKO in Reims. This symposium showcases important research in thermometry, humidity and thermophysical properties and takes place every three years. ThermoSI made a strong contribution to the whole event with 6 oral presentations and 3 posters.

In addition, Jonathan Pearce (NPL) as an invited international expert on a round table discussing “challenges for tomorrow’s thermal metrology”. Besides the main conference there were also meetings of BIPM Consultative Committee for Thermometry (CCT) Working Groups, IEC/SC65B/WG5 on Temperature Sensors and Instruments, and IMEKO TC12 on Thermal Measurements.

Gavin Sutton of NPL (pictured below) presented on Evaluation of candidate high-temperature phosphors for industrial temperature measurements above 1000 °C

Fatima Yousafzai (UoM) and Christian Krause (UoM) participated in the Poster session with their presentations on Fabrication of robust hBN-Encapsulated Graphene Sensors: A Path to Practical Johnson Noise Thermometry and Innovative Dual-Mode Thermometer: Noise Meets Resistance respectively.

Albert Adibekyan (PTB) gave details of Emissivity measurements at PTB: Development of a new spherical enclosure and Ingmar Müller (PTB) spoke on Traceable thermal imaging – overcoming the limits of the scene-based correction method DRM, topics which contribute to the themes of WP1.

Aldo Mendiata of NPL (above) also presented on Traceable thermal imaging by means of luminescence thermometry and Albert Adibekyan (PTB) spoke on Emissivity and reflectivity measurements for passive radiative cooling technologies.

As symposium proceedings are published, this site will be updated with links to the publications.
