Evaluation of Moisture Diffusion by IR Thermography [PDF]

open access: yesThe 16th International Workshop on Advanced Infrared Technology & Applications, 2021
It is well known that IRT is among the preferred instruments in the qualitative monitoring of humidity in buildings. The evaporation of water leads to a sink of thermal energy that eventually manifests as a decreasing of the temperature. The imaging and non-contact characteristics of IRT make the monitoring of this temperature decrease particularly ...
