We present spatially resolved measurements of the temperature of a flat liquid water microjet for varying pressures, from vacuum to 100% relative humidity. The entire jet surface is probed in a single shot by a high-resolution infrared…
Measurements of surface temperature fields are used to determine the heat transfer by conduction and convection from an inhomogeneously heated metallic tube into environment. For most of the here reported measurements we use a low-cost…
Indoor swimming pools (ISPs) consume significant amounts of electrical and thermal energy to ensure the heating of water and air, ventilation, and maintaining adequate humidity levels. This is measured in GWh per year for large…
Low-cost thermal cameras are inaccurate (usually $\pm 3^\circ C$) and have space-variant nonuniformity across their detector. Both inaccuracy and nonuniformity are dependent on the ambient temperature of the camera. The goal of this work…
Cool pavements designate alternative pavements designed to reduce their contribution to urban heating. Urban heating generally refers to the sensible heat exchanged with the atmosphere by urban materials but can also include the radiative…
This paper studies heat fluxes from contributors and mitigators of urban heat islands using thermal images and weather data. Thermal images were collected from an observatory operating on the rooftop of a building between November 2021 and…
Urban flooding is becoming a common and devastating hazard to cause life loss and economic damage. Monitoring and understanding urban flooding in the local scale is a challenging task due to the complicated urban landscape, intricate…
In recent years, the frequency of extreme weather events on Earth has increased significantly. This phenomenon is driven by the intensification of the greenhouse effect caused by anthropogenic activities, leading to temperature variations…
Soil moisture (SM) is referred to as a finite amount of water molecules within the pore spaces and it is a crucial parameter of Hydro-Meteorological processes. The behaviour of soil moisture water changes spatially and temporally in…
The paper describes a dataset that was collected by infrared thermography, which is a non-contact, non-intrusive technique to collect data and analyze the built environment in various aspects. While most studies focus on the city and…
To explain reported solar interfacial-evaporation rates from porous materials beyond an apparent 100% efficiency using the thermal evaporation mechanism, many publications hypothesize that intermediate water inside porous materials have a…
Infrared thermography is a powerful tool for studying liquid-to-vapor phase change processes. However, its application has been limited in the study of vapor-to-liquid phase transitions due to the presence of complex liquid dynamics,…
Improving the accuracy of soil moisture estimation is required for advancing irrigation scheduling and water conservation efforts. Central to this task are soil hydraulic parameters, which govern moisture dynamics but are rarely known…
Water level monitoring is critical for flood management, water resource allocation, and ecological assessment, yet traditional methods remain costly and limited in coverage. This work explores radar-based sensing as a low-cost alternative…
The potential energy loss of aging buildings traps building owners in a cycle of underfunding operations and overpaying maintenance costs. Energy auditors intending to generate an energy model of a target building for performance assessment…
Ponds are universally used to store water for a large number of uses. With the increasing demand for more fresh water, ponds, lakes and reservoirs are likely to be constructed on a larger scale. We must understand the effects of…
Recent advances in automated vehicles have focused on improving perception performance under adverse weather conditions; however, research on physical hardware solutions remains limited, despite their importance for perception critical…
Two-color (2C) pyrometry has long been used for flame temperature and soot concentration studies and is now becoming more widely used to measure surface temperatures of burning materials. With the obvious advantage of being a contact-free…
Accurate and efficient pedestrian detection is crucial for the intelligent transportation system regarding pedestrian safety and mobility, e.g., Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, and smart pedestrian crosswalk systems. Among all…
In this paper, we investigate quantitatively the coupling between gradients of temperature and of chemical or water potential under steady state conditions in the vapor phase. This coupling is important for the measurement and modeling of…
