INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY

This presentation provides an overview of infrared thermography (IRT). It discusses how IRT uses infrared cameras to detect differences in temperature across surfaces and produces thermal images. IRT is a non-contact method that allows real-time scanning and has various applications, including predictive maintenance to detect electrical issues and leaks. The presentation reviews the history, basic principles, components of IRT cameras, and limitations. Examples are given of IRT's use in industries like power plants and buildings to identify hotspots and moisture issues. In conclusion, IRT's non-intrusive and fast scanning abilities make it a valuable tool for condition monitoring and energy efficiency.

 Infrared thermography is the science of acquisition and analysis of thermal information by using non contact thermal imaging devices.  Infrared thermography uses special cameras that can detect radiation in the infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum and produce an image of that radiation.  Infrared thermography is the only diagnostic technology that can instantly visualize and verify thermal performance.
 Infrared thermography has become a standard predictive maintenance practice to check electrical circuitry for loose connections.  The technology is now being used to scan pumps, steam traps, steam lines, refrigeration systems, manufacturing processes, manufacturing facilities, and HVAC systems.  The technology can provide instant feedback on unsafe or wasteful conditions.  This technology is used for night vision purposes.
1.It is non-contact –uses remote sensing -Keeps the user out of danger -Does not intrude upon or affect the target at all 2.It is two dimensional -Comparison between areas of the target is possible -The image allows for excellent overview of the target -Thermal patterns can be visualised for analysis 3.It is real time -Enables very fast scanning of stationary targets -Enables capture of fast moving targets -Enables capture of fast changing thermal patterns.

 In an electromagnetic spectrum the IR region appears between 0.8 micron to 1000 micron wavelength.  It includes most of the thermal radiation emitted by objects near room temperature. Fig 1,electromagnetic spectrum(12)
1. It is invisible since its wavelength is longer than visible light.It has nothing to do with brightness or darkness of visible light 2. It is emitted naturally from any object of which temperature is absolute zero(0K) or higher.Therefore, it can be applied to any field 3. It is a kind of light (electromagnetic wave).It can be transmitted through vacuum. 4. There is a correlation between infrared energy and temperature of an object.Therefore, it can be used to measure the temperature of an object.
 PLANCK’S LAW: o It describes the spectral distribution of the radiation intensity from a blackbody Eλb = C1/λ5(eC2/λT − 1)  WIEN’S DISPLACEMENT LAW: ◦ It describes the variation of maximum wavelength with temperature. λmax = 2898/T Fig 2,weins displacement curve(1)
 STEFAN–BOLTZMANN LAW: o Gives the variation of intensity with temperature. Eb = σT4  EMISSIVITY: o It is the ratio of the radiation intensity of a body and a black body under exactly same conditions. ελ = Eλ/Eλb
 A thermal imaging camera consists of five components: o optic system o detector o amplifier o signal processing o display Fig 3,IR Camera(5)
 A special lens focuses the infrared light emitted by all of the objects in view.  The focused light is scanned by a phased array of infrared- detector elements. The detector elements create a very detailed temperature pattern called a thermogram  The thermogram created by the detector elements is translated into electric impulses.  The impulses are sent to a signal-processing unit that translates the information from the elements into data for the display.  Appears as various colours depending on the intensity of the infrared emission. The combination of all the impulses from all of the elements creates the image.
Fig 4,Working Process of an IRT device (12)
 Scan rate of 30 times per second(generally)  Can sense temperatures ranging from -4 degrees Fahrenheit (-20 degrees Celsius) to 3,600 F (2,000 C)  Can normally detect changes in temperature of about 0.4 F (0.2 C).  They are generally of two types: ◦ UNCOOLED TYPE-  The infrared-detector elements are contained in a unit that operates at room temperature.  Is completely quiet, activates immediately and has the battery built right in. o CRYOGENICALLY COOLED- o More expensive and more susceptible to damage from rugged use o Have the elements sealed inside a container that cools them to below 32 F (zero C). o Incredible resolution and sensitivity that result from cooling the elements

 It is a non-contact type technique.  Fast, reliable & accurate output.  A large surface area can be scanned in no time.  It is capable of catching moving targets in real time  Presented in visual & digital form.  Software back-up for image processing and analysis.  Requires very little skill for monitoring.  It can be used to detect objects in dark areas.  It is able to find deteriorating, i.e., higher temperature components prior to their failure.  It can be used to measure or observe in areas inaccessible or hazardous for other methods
 Cost of instrument is relatively high.  Unable to detect the inside temperature if the medium is separated by glass/polythenematerial etc.  Accurate temperature measurements are hindered by differing emissivities and reflections from other surfaces  Most cameras have ±2% accuracy or worse in measurement of temperature and are not as accurate as contact methods  Condition of work, depending of the case, can be drastic: 10°C of difference between internal/external, 10km/h of wind maximum, no direct sun, no recent rain, ...
 Condition monitoring  Medical imaging  Veterinary Thermal Imaging  Night vision  Surveillance  Research  Process control  Non-destructive testing  Surveillance in security, law enforcement and defence  Chemical imaging  Volcanology  Buildings

 Infrared inspections provide a means to view systems (electrical, mechanical, building envelopes) under normal operating conditions to identify abnormally hot (or cool) areas or components.  It’s various profitable characteristics justify the importance of INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY in the field of science and technology.
