Surface pyrometry in presence of radiation from other sources with application to turbine blade temperature measurement

摘要

Surface pyrometry is feasible even when the amount of surface radiation is exceeded by radiation from surrounding sources. To measure and correct for this interfering radiation, several methods that use multiple wavelength pyrometry were compared by an error analysis. For a specific application to turbine blade temperature measurement in a turbofan engine, a two wavelength method was best. Auxiliary measurements at the same wavelengths substantially improve the accuracy of the method.
