Abstract
The physical basis of liquid-crystal
thermography, which allows visualization
and measurement of temperature and heat-
flux fields, are expounded. An
experimental technique and methods of
obtaining quantitative results are
described. Two approaches (monochromatic
and chromatic) to interpretation of
visualization data are considered.
Results illustrating the possibilities
of the method in an aerophysical
experiment are given.
