ABSTRACT:
Military mechanical field equipment, such as an electrical generator, is camouflaged from airborne IR detection by enclosing the equipment in a double-walled enclosure having hollow walls through which air is forced to flow. By adjusting the air flow in the enclosure, the radiance from the enclosure can be made the same as its immediate surroundings. A dual temperature sensor senses temperature differences between the enclosure surface and the surroundings and varies the air cooling accordingly until thermal balance is achieved.
