This article describes on-line correction algorithms using triple-band pyrometry and data sorting. The objective is to generate on-line correction for flame in the field of view and levels of reflection exceeding 70% of input signal from a spectrally variable source. Results show success of applying these methods. Additionally, these methods provide cost-effective temperature data for turbine blade cooling development in the harsh and complex radiative environment of the first turbine, where other methods have failed. 3 refs.
