Abstract
Pulse phase dynamic thermal tomography (PP-DTT) was introduced as a nondestructive inspection technique to detect the defects of the solid-propellant missile engine cladding layer. One-dimensional thermal wave mathematical model stimulated by pulse signal was developed and employed to investigate the thermal wave transmission characteristics. The pulse phase algorithm was used to extract the thermal wave characteristic of thermal radiation. Depth calibration curve was obtained by fuzzy c-means algorithm. Moreover, PP-DTT, a depth-resolved photothermal imaging modality, was employed to enable three-dimensional (3D) visualization of cladding layer defects. The comparison experiment between PP-DTT and classical dynamic thermal tomography was investigated. The results showed that PP-DTT can reconstruct the 3D topography of defects in a high quality.
