The usage of IR thermography for the temperature measurements inside an automobile cabin

Infrared thermography is more convenient and faster than other temperature measurement devices such as thermocouples to measure more points or surfaces at the same time. In order to capture infrared thermograph of these surfaces, an infrared thermal camera which has a spectral range between 7.5 and 13 µm was used. Using this technique will lead us to determine the instant and transient temperature distributions of all surfaces inside an automobile and investigate the thermal discomfort that was caused by those surfaces.
