IR thermometers: they aren't just for reading temperatures.(includes related article on laser circles for spot targeting)
|
Infrared (IR) thermometers have an additional use beyond obtaining simple temperature readings. They can be used to detect temperature variations, which can improve preventive maintenance efficiency. Applications include targeting potential trouble spots such as locating a single a hot motor bearing or circuit breaker, or steam traps in heaters.
The thing to keep in mind with infrared (IR) temperature-measurement instruments, is that the measurement you get from object at exactly...

Age-hardenable nickel-base alloy: RA718 (UNS N07718) is a nickel alloy precipitation hardened by gamma prime and double prime. It is readily fabricated and is weldable even in the aged condition. The alloy is used for gas turbine components at temperatures up to 650[degrees]C (1200[degrees]F) as well as for cryogenic equipment.(Alloy Digest Data Sheet)
Advanced Materials & Processes
; ALLOY 718 is strengthened by a precipitation hardening reaction involving columbium, titanium, aluminum, and nickel, with a degree of solid-solution strengthening by molybdenum. For alloy RA718, two commonly used heat treatments are as follows. * Treatment I: Anneal at 925-1010[degrees]C

Why 15[degrees]? (Letters to the Editor).
Engineered Systems
; While reading Timothy Coyle's August 2002 Current Affairs column (page 32), I was struck by the idea of using the 15[degrees] delta T for a 95[degrees]F design day. My first impression was, Why 15[degrees]? In my first job out of college, working with power plant ventilation, I was taught to use a

Properties of TiAl sheet pack-rolled at temperatures below 1000 [degrees]C
Metallurgical and Materials Transactions
; TiAl alloy specimens with microcrystalline (MC, grain size is 5 [mu]m) and submicrocrystalline (SMC, grain size is 0.4 [mu]m) structures were successfully pack-rolled to sheet with a thickness down to 0.4 mm in the temperature ranges of 800 [degrees]C to 1000 [degrees]C and 900 [degrees]C to 1000

Internal Oven Provides Voltage Reference Less Than 1-ppm/[degrees]C Drift.(Technology Information)
Electronic Design
; When precision voltage-reference requirements demand less than 1-ppm/[degrees]C temperature drift, the designer can choose to use expensive components (off-the-shelf modules) or build a custom oven enclosure. This second choice is common among cost-sensitive designs where a less-expensive IC

Digital Sine-Wave Generator Produces 0[degrees] To 360[degrees] Phase-Shifts.(Technology Information)
Electronic Design
; Sine-wave generators with 0[degrees] to 360[degrees] phase-shifts are very important testing blocks in many systems involving DSP operations (i.e., I/Q modulator-demodulator communication, phase-angle measurements and up-down counter conversion in controls, and power electronics). The popular
