  • Patent number: 7517143
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining the temperature of a surface coating of rotating blades mounted in a non-positive-displacement machine with a rotor shaft rotationally mounted in a housing, during which electromagnetic waves are emitted in a duct in an area of the rotating blades by at least one means for generating electromagnetic waves. The electromagnetic waves are reflected, at least in part, by at least one rotating blade. The reflected portions of the electromagnetic waves are received by at least one receiving means and the temperature of the surface coating of the rotating blades is determined from a distribution of intensity of the received electromagnetic waves. The invention also relates to a method for determining the temperature of a surface coating of guide vanes mounted in a rotationally fixed manner in a non-positive-displacement machine with a housing, and to a device for carrying out the method.

  • Patent number: 7095221
    Abstract: The invention provides a sensing system and a method for monitoring the damage to turbine components in a turbine generator. The sensing system comprises an electromagnetic wave generator that generates an electromagnetic wave; a transmitter that transmits the generated electromagnetic wave from a first turbine component; a second turbine component that receives the transmitted electromagnetic wave and reflects the electromagnetic wave; a receiver that receives the reflected electromagnetic wave; and a processor that interprets the received electromagnetic wave.
