tire temperature profile

[buster]

Am new to thermographic techniques and need to determine temperature profile of side wall and tread of moving tire. How fast and to what resolution can a small portable system operate (what are the trade offs between system cost and opetrating speed/resolution). Are systems available that will withstand shock and vibration (of vehicle moving over rough ground).

At the IR Info presentations this year( a thermographers gathering to share papers on various ir subjects), we heard from the gentleman tasked with doing just such research on the Firestone tread seperation problem. You can obtain more info and possibly a copy of his report by going to:

Good luck
