Abstract :
The object of this experiment was the establishment of the best measurement capability (BMC) of surface temperature measurement. The BMC of a laboratory is an indication of the care taken in improving the accuracy of measurement and the methods used to avoid the introduction of errors. Experiments were done and a positive conclusion could be made on the validity of the proposed method
