The Langley Research Center is in the process of obtaining emissivity measuring apparatus. This apparatus will be used to measure the solar absorptance and low-temperature emittance of space-vehicle materials. Two types of instrumentation will be used. One type will be the total hemispherical emissivity apparatus being constructed at this Center. The other will be double-beam photoelectric ratio-recording spectrophotometer apparatus which is being purchased.

Attention is drawn to recent advancements in the fluctuating line-reversal temperature measurement, the development of the two-dimensional drag-sensing probe into a three-dimensional drag-sensing probe, and the fluctuating density gradient cross beam Schlieren technique. An experimental apparatus is explained whereby the temperature fluctuation in a pulsating air-fuel ratio Bunsen burner is measured by means of sodium D-line reversal methods with a new photoelectric circuit to obtain both fluctuating and mean temperature data. The three-D drag probe is made possible by a newly invented differential and total magnetic sensing system that separates signals due to three orthogonal movements so that the vectorial momentum fluctuation can be measured. In the case of the Schlieren technique, the effect of anisotropic density gradients with respect to the angle between the polarization plane and the knife edge of a laser Schlieren system is studied.
