Kvantitativ avbildning av gasemissioner utnyttjande optisk teknik

摘要

A method for quantitative imaging of gas emissions utilizing optical techniques combining gas correlation techniques with thermal background radiation or gas self-emission radiation is presented. A simultaneous recording of images with and without filtering through a gas-filled cell is utilized for the identification of a selected gas. A new calibration method provides the display of the integrated gas concentration spatially resolved in the generated final image. The procedure includes methods for a correct subtraction of the zero level, consisting of self-radiation from the dual-image camera device including the as correlation cell and electronic offset, and for the calculation of the specific absorption as a function of the difference temperature between the background and the gas emission.
