Infrared Thermography: Errors and Uncertainties

This document discusses errors and uncertainties in infrared thermography measurements. It begins with introducing the concepts of systematic and random errors, and how to propagate uncertainties in indirect measurements. It then covers the basic laws of radiative heat transfer, emissivity, and infrared cameras used for measurements. The document analyzes the algorithm for infrared camera measurement processing, sources of systematic errors, and how to simulate them. It presents a methodology for simulation experiments to determine the components of combined standard uncertainty. Finally, it discusses summarizing the analysis and provides MATLAB scripts and functions in appendices to simulate uncertainties and errors in infrared thermography measurements.
