Advances in the application of non-contact temperature measurement technology for aero-engine blade

The advancement of the aviation sector has made the temperature measurement technology for aero-engine turbine blades essential for maintaining the engine’s safe and steady performance. The non-contact temperature measurement technology is a trending research focus in turbine blade temperature measurement due to its benefits of not requiring direct touch with the object being measured and its suitability for high-temperature and high-speed conditions. This paper provides a concise overview of various key non-contact temperature measurement methods for aero-engines, such as fluorescence temperature measurement, fiber-optic temperature measurement, and radiation temperature measurement. It discusses the temperature measurement principle, technical characteristics, and the current research status both domestically and internationally. Based on this, this Review further discusses the main challenges faced by the non-contact temperature measurement technology and the development trend of the future.
