ABSTRACT:
A method for performing a repair to a damaged area on a contoured section of a composite structure, including the steps of laying up a repair patch over the damaged area of the composite structure, installing a conformal thermocouple over the repair patch so that the conformal thermocouple is in direct communication with and completely conforms to the exact shape of the contour section so as to act as a vehicle for the transfer of heat and pressure to the repair patch, applying heat to the repair patch via the conformal thermocouple, applying pressure to the repair patch via the conformal thermocouple, and curing the repair patch.
