ABSTRACT:
A dual spectra optical pyrometer having an air pressure sensitive shutter for measuring the temperature of a turbine blade includes a sight tube located in the jet engine receiving an optical beam from the turbine blade. Located within the sight tube is a shutter responsive to the jet engine air pressure and providing the turbine blade optical beam only above a selected threshold magnitude of said air pressure. A detection module receives and divides the turbine blade optical beam and provides signals to a signal processor. From these signals and signals indicative of an estimated fireball equivalent black body temperature and the spectral width difference between the two detector signals, the signal processor provides a signal indicative of a compensated turbine blade temperature.
