Abstract

This paper presents constitution of a moderate price thermography system for on-line measurement. All objects with some temperature above absolute zero radiate in the infrared. The intensities and spectra of the infrared radiated from some object depend on the conditions and temperature distributions on the surface of the objects, and the temperature distributions differ from each others with different undersurface structures. Consequently, infrared radiation is useful for diagnosis of the conditions on the surface and undersurface of electric power apparatus. But the present, because engineers directly measure the temperatures of apparatuses in off-line, the measured data do not always have the information of the past. The proposed system is able to analyze not only the information of the past but the trend of deterioration, and the system is able to compensate for the distortion of surface temperature as to weather conditions. The thermal image histogram is equalized to upgrade observability, and a pan-tilter is adopted to control of direction for any target point.
