A study of thermographic phosphor thermometry in an operating turbofan engine

<p>A new method of remote thermometry utilizing the temperature dependent optical properties of thermographic phosphors was evaluated for use in measuring high-pressure turbine blade metal temperatures in an operating turbofan engine test rig. Thermographic phosphors, ceramics doped with a rar...
