Abstract
This study was examined the possibility of a new method of simultaneously measuring temperature and velocity in convection field of heat transfer using micro-encapsulated thermo-chromic liquid crystal(MTLC). The present calibration technique is improved the more accuracy of temperature measurement in comparison with conventional calibration technique by hue divided by intensity. Their simultaneous measurement of thermal plume is carried out by capturing sequential visualized images and doing image processing of them. Those measured values are shown the same tendency as the Kaminski's result. These results indicate the potential of their simultaneous measurement using MTLC.
