A net radiometer measures incoming and outgoing short-wave radiation using two thermopile pyranometers, and it measures incoming and outgoing long-wave radiation using two pyrgeometers. A pyrheliometer consists of a radiation-sensing element enclosed in a casing with a small aperture through which only direct solar rays enter. ...
When the IR radiation exchange is measured with a pyrgeometer, special screens can be closed when temperature are expected to drop rapidly. ...
