Overview: This paper describes designing, manufacturing, and laboratory and field testing of a non-contact boiler temperature probe utilizing the method of phosphor thermo-graphy to acquire boiler tube surface temperatures. Phosphor thermo-graphy is a well-developed non-contact method of temperature measurement, capable of accurately measuring surface temperatures in difficult environments. For this application, the 660nm emission line of magnesium floral germinate (thermographic phosphor) was selected to attain surface temperatures. An optical layout was designed incorporating fiber-optic cable, bi-convex lenses, window, and a dichroic lens.
