lämmittökartta

Lammittökartta is a Finnish term that translates to "heating map" or "thermal map". It refers to a visual representation of temperature distribution within a specific area, often used in building diagnostics and energy efficiency assessments. These maps are typically generated using thermal imaging cameras, which detect infrared radiation emitted by objects and convert it into a visible spectrum.

The color scale on a lammittökartta indicates different temperature levels, with certain colors representing warmer areas and others cooler areas. This allows for the quick identification of anomalies in temperature patterns. Common applications include detecting heat loss from buildings, such as through poorly insulated walls, windows, or roofs. It can also pinpoint areas of moisture buildup, as water can significantly alter the thermal properties of materials.

In construction and renovation, lammittökartta helps identify defects in insulation, air leaks, and the performance of heating and cooling systems. For industrial purposes, it can be used to monitor the operating temperatures of machinery, electrical components, and pipelines, helping to prevent failures and optimize performance. The information provided by a lammittökartta is crucial for making informed decisions about energy conservation, maintenance, and repairs.
