Abstract

Thermal infrared imagers provide reliable and timely non-destructive inspection capa-bilities to persons responsible for the operation and maintenance of mechanical systems. This discussion reviews the fundamental principles of mechanical systems, outlines the steps taken in designing a thermographic inspection of a mechanical system and presents a sampling of thermograms from various mechanical applications for thermography.
