Abstract
An IR camera is mounted on a pan-tilt head and automatically driven to map the temperature of the inner walls of the insulated container on a refrigerated vehicle. The vehicle is introduced in a test chamber where special conditions are applied, in such a way to maintain an inner-outer temperature difference of around 25 C. The objective of this work is that of complementing the qualitative results obtained by infrared thermography, with an evaluation of the heat flux flowing through the wall.
