Abstract
Measuring internal temperature distributions of a heated material is an important issue in the fields of material science and engineering because the temperature distribution measurements often play an important role in understanding the behavior of material being processed at high temperature. In our previous works, ultrasonic methods for measuring the internal temperature profiles of heated materials have been developed and their promising potentials are demonstrated experimentally. However, the developed method includes a very time consuming process due to complicated calculations and procedures. In this work, an effective system combined with data acquisition and processing is developed and its practicability for real-time monitoring is examined.
