Examination Of Heat Flux Through A Surface Using Digital Image Processing Of Infrared Images, Nicholas D. True
Honors Theses
The task for this project was to design and construct a system that could be used to examine heat transfer through a surface by analyzing images produced using thermal imaging cameras. A long rectangular box made of pinewood was constructed and a light bulb was inserted to provide a heating element. The front face of the box was made to be interchangeable so that various materials could be tested. Two Flir I5 thermal imaging cameras were used to take pictures of both sides of the front face at specific time intervals in order to determine the temperature distribution of the …
