High tEmperature blAde Tip-clearance (HEAT)

HEAT项目将为工业压缩机和燃气轮机行业提供新型传感器和电子技术。HEAT是一种高温叶片尖端间隙测量系统，将为英国燃气轮机、工业压缩机、工业涡轮增压器和化学压缩机行业提供更低的使用寿命成本、更高的效率和可靠性。该系统提供自主和一致的高精度叶片尖端间隙测量，精度高达25 μ m，利用强大的传感器不受使用中污染的影响，能够在温度高达1000°C的极端环境中运行。

The HEAT programme is to provide novel sensor and electronics technology for the industrial compressor and gas turbine industries. HEAT is a High tEmperature blAde Tip-clearance measurement system which will provide reduced through-life costs, improved efficiency and reliability for the UK gas turbine, industrial compressor, industrial turbo-charger and chemical compressor industries.The system provides autonomous and consistent high accuracy blade tip clearance measurement with a precision of up to 25µm utilising a robust sensor immune to in-service contamination and able to operate in extreme environments with temperatures up to 1000°C.
