1.1 This test method describes the measurement of radiative heat flux using a transducer whose sensing element (1,2 ) is a thin circular metal foil. These sensors are often called Gardon Gauges.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values stated in parentheses are provided for information only.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
