Abstract

A small heat flux meter, with short response time, useful to measure local heat fluxes typically found in solar energy and natural radiative cooling work is described. Utilizing recording instruments normally used for temperature measurement with thermocouples, the meter assures an accuracy of at least 10%. The calibration constant measured with two different calibration devices is given.
