Abstract

A thermal condition sensor system monitors equipment such as aircraft engines. The thermal condition sensor system includes a collector which collects radiation from the equipment and a detector assembly which detects collected radiation over a discriminating spectral band region in at least three spectral bands and generates signals representative of detected radiation in each spectral band. A processor receives the signals and generates a report of the thermal conditions of the equipment using interband comparison of the at least three spectral bands.
