39 results about "Thermal effusivity" patented technology

In thermodynamics, the thermal effusivity or thermal responsivity of a material is defined as the square root of the product of the material's thermal conductivity and its volumetric heat capacity. e=(λρcₚ)¹/² Here, λ is the thermal conductivity, ρ is the density and cₚ is the specific heat capacity. The product of ρ and cₚ is known as the volumetric heat capacity. A material's thermal effusivity is a measure of its ability to exchange thermal energy with its surroundings.

Method for thermal tomography of thermal effusivity from pulsed thermal imaging

A computer-implemented method for automated thermal computed tomography includes providing an input of heat, for example, with a flash lamp, onto the surface of a sample. The amount of heat and the temperature rise necessary are dependent on the thermal conductivity and the thickness of the sample being inspected. An infrared camera takes a rapid series of thermal images of the surface of the article, at a selected rate, which can vary from 100 to 2000 frames per second. Each infrared frame tracks the thermal energy as it passes from the surface through the material. Once the infrared data is collected, a data acquisition and control computer processes the collected infrared data to form a three-dimensional (3D) thermal effusivity image.

Temporal thermal imaging method for detecting subsurface objects and voids

A temporal thermal survey method to locate at a given area whether or not there is a subsurface object or void site. The method uses thermal inertia change detection. It locates temporal heat flows from naturally heated subsurface objects or faulty structures such as corrosion damage. The added value over earlier methods is the use of empirical methods to specify the optimum times for locating subsurface objects or voids amidst clutter and undisturbed host materials. Thermal inertia, or thermal effusivity, is the bulk material resistance to temperature change. Surface temperature highs and lows are shifted in time at the subsurface object or void site relative to the undisturbed host material sites. The Dual-band Infra-Red Effusivity Computed Tomography (DIRECT) method verifies the optimum two times to detect thermal inertia outliers at the subsurface object or void border with undisturbed host materials.
