Bovine incisor was investigated using active infrared thermography(IRT) to visualize crack on bovine teeth. An artificial crack was carefully created in bovine incisor sample by compression load of universal tensile machine. While applying a sinusoidal heat wave to the cracked bovine incisor through halogen lamp, consecutive digital infrared images was captured from the sample surface at a frequency synchronized with heat excitation. Phase information of thermal image was calculated by four-point correlation method and processed to produce the phase image of bovine incisor. This phase image showed clearly the crack on the incisor, which was hardly detected in traditional passive thermography.

The infrared camera is difficult to satisfy the RE-102 specification of Mil-Std-461. Especially, in the case of UAV electronics, shielded cable is not used, so it is difficult to meet the electromagnetic compatibility standard. In the RE-102 test of the IR camera for UAV, radiated noise exceeding 30 dBuV/m was observed in the range of 50 MHz to 200 MHz. As a result of pcb em scan, peak noise which caused by the harmonic frequency of the digital control signal clock was observed. Radiated noise was reduced by up to 22.9 dBuV/m by applying the spread spectrum clock generator(SSCG) with 3 % down spreading method to the camera control clock.

Recently there has been an increasing demand for developing a domestic software (S/W) for infrared signature generation to prevent technology leakage and match the domestic operating environment. In this study, we developed a S/W for infrared signature generation and presented its structures and functions for creating and analyzing the IR images of designated spectral bands. The proposed S/W generates IR images of an object through calculations of surface temperatures and IR signals including the self-emitted, surface reflected and path dependent radiances. Moreover, the proposed S/W includes the features of infrared threat analyses from the generated IR images including the infrared contrast radiant intensity (CRI), detection ranges or detection probability analyses, unlike the imported, commercial infrared signature generation S/W.

본 논문은 진공챔버 내부에서 위성 표면의 온도를 제어하기 위한 할로겐램프를 이용한 적외선 발열장치의 개발에 관한 것으로, 인공위성이 우주궤도에서 받게 되는 복사에너지를 지상의 진공챔버 내에서 모사하기 위한 비접촉 적외선 발열장치에 관한 것이다. 진공챔버 내에서의 비접촉식 발열 방법 중, 진공환경에서의 오염을 발생시키지 않고, 발열 시간 및 냉각 시간이 가장 짧으며, 높은 열효율로 태양복사에너지를 가장 근사하게 모사할 수 있는 할로겐 램프를 이용한 발열 방법을 적용하였으며, 램프에서 방사되는 열에너지가 위성표면에 균일하게 분포될 수 있도록 위성 표면으로부터의 거리와 램프의 개수, 램프의 배열에 따른 에너지 분포 계산식을 도출하여 적용하였다. 공급 전압에 따른 램프의 저항특성을 파악하여, 원격으로 제어되는 150 VDC, 5 A의 직류전원공급기를 이용해 램프의 발열량을 조절하였으며, 발열량에 따른 위성 표면온도에 대한 해석을 수행하였다. 램프를 이용한 비접촉식 적외선 발열장치 개발을 통해 진공환경에서의 시험대상에 대한 효율적인 열에너지 부과방법 수립이 가능하였다.

This paper presents the flow passage design for a window cooling device, which have a conical poppet valve and an emissive orifice. Computational flow analysis and experiment are conducted according to the poppet strokes. The results show satisfactory flow characteristics that pressure is reduced enough to endure material strength and the flow does not choked inside window. The correction factor of discharge coefficients is found between 2-dimensional analysis and experiments, which is applied to control coolant flow rates of the window cooling device.

The emissivity is different because the emitted angle changes according to the position of the infrared thermography camera and object. Because of this, the temperature distribution expressed when measuring the temperature by using the infrared thermography system is not the accuracy temperature. Although the real surface temperature is constant, the temperature measured by using infrared thermography camera have error in accordance with the value of emissivity. In this paper, the temperatures of the round cylindrical object and the flat square object that heated to the equal temperature were measured by infrared thermography camera. The emissivity calibration formula and correction table are made with the affect of the view angle and emission angle form the surface temperature value. The error of measured temperature values are corrected by using the emissivity calibration formula and correction table, and apply to defect detection of the nuclear power plant pipe. From the calibration method, reliability surface temperature values were obtained.

Unreadable Khitan scripts of ancient documents written by indian ink on parchment(sheepskin) are visualized by active infrared thermography without contacting and damaging the document which are deteriorated and aged presumably over many years. Sinusoidal infrared thermal wave using Halogen lamp is applied to the surface of the document in order to selectively magnify and record the thermal response of indian ink. The infrared image of the document captured in real time by infrared camera under the active external excitation shows the better sharpness and readability of Khitan characters than the optical image, from which many Khitan letters like ' ' and ' ' sounding as 'd' and 'ri' in English alphabet are detected and deciphered. It is concluded from the experiment that the active infrared thermography can be used as a promising method for digital reconstruction and preservation of ancient documents in the future.

Sintered $Al_2TiO_5$ has a very low thermal expansion and an infrared radiative selectively emitting large amounts of far infrared rays. However, it is week in mechanical strength. Spectral infrared emittance, thermal expansion coefficient, and mechanical strength of $Al_2TiO_5$-clay composites were studied to develop a material for far infrared radiators. The composites containing 10~50 mass% Jungsan clay had high emittance in the range of 2,000~500cm-1. The bending strength of the $Al_2TiO_5$-clay composites increased with increasing clay content. The $Al_2TiO_5$-clay composites with a clay content of 50mass% and heat-treated at $1,200^{\circ}C$ had a large strength for infrared radiators ; 86MPa. The average linear thermal expansion coefficient from $200{\sim}1,000^{\circ}C$ of the 50mass% jungsan clay containing compo sited heat-treated at $1,200^{\circ}C$ was lower than $3.87{\times}10-6/^{\circ}C$.

This study is focused on developing a software that predicts the temperature distribution and infrared Emission from 30 objects considering the solar radiation through the atmosphere. The solar radiation through the atmosphere is modeled by using the well-known LOWTRAN7 code. Surface temperature information is essential for generating the infrared scene of the object. Predictions of the transient surface temperature and the infrared emission from a naval ship by using the software developed here show fairly good results by representing the typical temperature and emitted radiance distributions expected for the naval ship considered in mid latitude. Emissivity of each material is appeared to be an important parameter for recognizing the target in Infrared band region. The numerical results also show that the low emissivity surface on the heat source can be helpful in reducing the IR image contrast as compared to the background sea.
