The Data Processing Methods for the Thermography Monitoring of Water Cooling Systems in NPP

Abstract

The article discusses approaches to the analysis of data from thermographic measurements conducted at the ZNPP in order to assess the condition of above-ground and underground communications of cooling water. Methods of analyzing the surface topology of radiation temperature distribution on the welding seam of an overhead pipeline were proposed in order to identify potentially dangerous areas. An approach to the assessment of external loads on the surface of the soil in order to determine the areas with excessive external influences.
