Type of article: Article

Summary

The work consists of a detailed thermal modelling of two different radiometers operated at cryogenic temperatures. Both employ a temperature sensor and an electrical-substitution technique to determine the absolute radiant power entering the aperture of a receiver. Their sensing elements are different. The finite element method is used to predict the transient and steady-state temperature distribution in the receiver. Recommendations are given based on the modelling for future improvement of the dynamic response of both radiometers.
