INTRODUCTION

The performance of thermionic converters is strongly dependent on emit ter temperature. An accurate determination of emitter surface temperature by o p t i c a l pyrometry requires a t a r g e t of known emittance value. s t r a y rad ia t ion from other hot sources and incident on the t a r g e t i s absorbed ra ther than re f lec ted in to the pyrometer. l e s s than 0.5; however, deep holes d r i l l e d i n any opaque mater ia l can provide emittance values near unity. Cavity design i s a f a i r l y simple task as long as t h e mater ia l is isothermal; f r e - quently, however, t h i s i s not the case because refractory metals a r e poor thermal conductors, p a r t i c u l a r l y a t elevated temperatures where large thermal flows of ten e x i s t . The r e s u l t i n g nonuniformity of temperature along the walls introduces uncertainty i n t o the t a r g e t emittance value and, hence, i n t o the surface temperature evaluation. Therefore, cavi ty depth must be kept within cer ta in bounds.

The emittance, and hence the absorptance, must be near uni ty , so that
