Infrared thermography transforms the thermal energy, emitted by objects in the infrared band
of the electromagnetic spectrum, into a visible image. This feature represents a great …

This paper deals with the evolution of infrared (IR) thermography into a powerful optical tool
that can be used in complex fluid flows to either evaluate wall convective heat fluxes or …

During the past several years infrared thermography has evolved into a powerful
investigative means of thermo-fluid-dynamic analysis to measure convective heat fluxes as …

The application of thermographic flow visualization on wind turbines in operation differs from
the well-established application in wind tunnel experiments. The necessary temperature …

This work presents the details of a system for experimentally identifying laminar-to-turbulent
transition using infrared thermography applied to large, metal models in low-speed wind …

The aerodynamic performance of wind turbine rotor blades is influenced by the leading
edge condition. Contamination and erosion cause increased surface roughness …

A measurement method for IR thermographic visualization of separated flow on rotor blades

An analytical inverse heat transfer solution is given for calculating surface heat flux from
temperature-sensitive coating measurements on a base with a finite thickness, which is …

In order to investigate the areas of different flow regimes in the boundary layer of an airfoil,
thermography is a powerful flow visualization tool. However, the distinguishability between …
