Engineering l603 − l Kamitomioka , Nagaoka 940 − 2188, Japan Measuring internal temperature distributions of a heated material is an important issue jn the field of material science and engineering . This is because such temperature distribution o 丘en plays an imp (π tant role in understandhlg the behavior of materials being processed at high temperature . In our previous work , an ultrasonic technique providing effective measurements of internal temperature profiles of heated materials has been developed and its potential is demonstrated experimentally . ln this work , the use of shear wave is attempted to measure internal temperatUre prefile of aheated steel using the ultrasonic technique , It is expected that the use of shear wave may be effective to improve the accuracy in deter 血 ning temperature because of its relatively slower velocity . An experiment with both longitudinal and shear wave transducers has demonstrated . Two temperature distributions obtai皿 ed usilg the longitudinal and shear waves are compared with each other . Although those results almost agree wi 血 that obtained using thermocouples , the result us 血 g shear wave is not always better than that using longitudinal wave , This is because of the deterioration of the shear wave signal durj 皿 g heating ・
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
