TOMOGRAPHIC RECONSTRUCTION OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL TEMPERATURE FIELD USING LIQUID CRYSTAL SCANNING THERMOGRAPHY

摘要

Liquid crystal thermography (LCT) generates two-dimensional temperature information in a fluid layer. A three-dimensional temperature field can be reconstructed using the two- dimensional temperature fields obtained at various locations with the help of synchronized- movements of the light sheet and camera. However, in many cases it may not be feasible to generate a large number of two-dimensional liquid crystal thermographs that are needed to represent a high-resolution, three-dimensional temperature field.
