This paper focuses on the detection of defects and thermal bridges in insulated truck box panels, utilizing Infrared thermography. Unlike the traditional way in which passive thermography is applied, this research uses both heating and cooling methods in active thermography configurations. Lamp heating is used as the hot external stimulation, while a compressed air jet is applied as the cold external stimulation. An IR camera captures the whole process. In addition, numerical simulations under COMSOL platform are also conducted. Experimental and simulation results for two situations are compared and discussed.

Abstract
This paper focuses on the detection of defects and thermal bridges in insulated truck box panels, utilizing Infrared thermography. Unlike the traditional way in which passive thermography is applied, this research uses both heating and cooling methods in active thermography configurations. Lamp heating is used as the hot external stimulation, while a compressed air jet is applied as the cold external stimulation. An IR camera captures the whole process. In addition, numerical simulations under COMSOL platform are also conducted. Experimental and simulation results for two situations are compared and discussed.File in questo prodotto:
