Data reduction in flash method thermography
نویسنده
چکیده
An infrared thermography equipment is used to measure the temperature rise at the rear surface of a sample submitted to the pulse irradiation of a flash source, in order to derive simultaneously two thermal properties of the sample. The Levemberg Marquadt technique is used to match the experimental data to the analytical model. Care is taken to tune sample features and the experimental set-up. Since the acquisition time revealed to be a critical parameter, its influence on the final results is investigated too.

Flash Thermography to Evaluate Porosity in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRPs)
It is a fact that the presence of porosity in composites has detrimental effects on their mechanical properties. Then, due to the high probability of void formation during manufacturing processes, it is necessary to have the availability of non-destructive evaluation techniques, which may be able to discover the presence and the distribution of porosity in the final parts. In recent years, flas...
متن کاملNDT characterisation of carbon-fibre and glass-fibre composites using non-invasive imaging techniques
The prerequisite for more competent and cost effective transport has led to the evolution of innovative testing and evaluation procedures. Non-destructive testing and evaluation (NDT & E) techniques for assessing the integrity of composite structures are essential to both reduce manufacturing costs and out of service time of transport means due to maintenance. Smart methods for assessing the in...

Infrastructure health monitoring is an important issue in the transportation industry. For the case of cementbased structures in particular, detection of corrosion on reinforcing steel bars (rebar) is an ongoing problem for aging infrastructure. There have been a number of techniques that have shown promise in this area including microwave nondestructive testing (NDT) and thermography. Thermogr...
متن کاملReduction of Reservoir Fluid Equilibrium Calculation for Peng-Robinson EOS with Zero Interaction Coefficients
For some of the EOS models the dimension of equilibrium problem can be reduced. Stability and difficulties in implementation are among the problems of flash calculation. In this work, a new reduction technique is presented to prepare a reduced number of equilibrium equations. Afterwards, a number of appropriate solution variables are selected for the prepared equation system to solve the equati...
