Abstract

  This paper presented possibilities of passive infrared thermography method in harmful gases leakage testing. Gas detection is performed in suitable spectral range, by comparing background thermogram with and without presence of gas. To be able to form the quality thermograms, it is necessary to use suitable optical filters and gas correlation cells.
