House, thermogram

House, thermogram. The colours show variations in temperature. The scale runs from white (warmest), through yellow, orange, red and purple to blue (coldest). Thermography records the temperature of surfaces by detecting long-wavelength infrared radiation. Heat is being lost through the windows (yellow), but retained by insulation in the roof. One room and window (centre left) are colder than the others. One of the parked cars (bottom right) is warmer than the others, and may have its engine running or have had its engine running recently

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "House, thermogram" showcases the power of thermography in capturing variations in temperature. The image reveals a spectrum of colors ranging from white (indicating the warmest areas) to blue (representing the coldest regions). Through this innovative technique, surfaces' temperatures are recorded by detecting long-wavelength infrared radiation. In this particular scene, we observe that heat is escaping through the windows, as depicted by the yellow hues. However, thanks to effective insulation in the roof, heat retention is evident. Interestingly, one room and window stand out as colder than others at the center-left portion of the photograph. Additionally, our attention is drawn towards parked cars located at the bottom right corner. One vehicle appears warmer compared to its counterparts; it could be running its engine or have recently done so. The utilization of thermography allows us to delve into scientific exploration and technological advancements related to energy conservation and efficiency. By identifying areas where heat loss occurs or insulation proves effective, we can make informed decisions about improving building structures for optimal thermal comfort and reduced energy consumption. This stunning image not only highlights how science and technology intersect but also emphasizes our ongoing commitment towards conserving energy and reducing fuel bills for a sustainable future.
