The Hairdryer Gap Paradox Dr Roy Spencer Experiment
Here, I present a paradox associated with IR thermograms; they do not show the temperature of the hot air coming out of a hairdryer—hence the gap. I discuss the background physics of the problem and offer a solution. Nitrogen and Oxygen are not received by the thermoelectric detectors in the camera.
Since this clip, I have conducted an experiment running pure CO2 through a hairdryer, and it did exactly what I thought and did not heat the dryer. See the images below. The dryer would have shut down if the greenhouse effect were true, that CO2 passed its heat onto N2 and O2. There was no noticeable difference between air and pure CO2. This was a 250,000 per cent increase in the concentration of CO2. No notable effect.
