Analytical method for turbine blade temperature mapping to estimate a pyrometer input signal

<p>The purpose of this thesis is to develop a method to estimate local blade temperatures in a gas turbine for comparison with the output signal of an experimental pyrometer. The goal of the method is to provide a temperature measurement benchmark based on a knowledge of blade geometry and...
