TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT FOR GAS TURBINES ENGINES

With the expanding application of gas turbine engines for stationary and ground vehicle use, more people are exposed to the problem of protecting the engines from excessive temperatures. Most engines today use some system involving thermocouples to measure temperature for manual or automatic control. Various sensor configurations have been developed and examples of each are available which have been selected based on the following: gas temperature to be sensed, response requirements of the controls, environment surrounding the assembly, and annular depth available for sampling. /GMRL/
