Abstract
Infrared thermal image can provide intuitive information about the surface temperature distribution of objects, but the traditional infrared thermal image processing methods have problems such as low resolution and lack of detailed information, which limits its application in more complex scenes. This paper presents a parametric image design and visualization simulation method based on infrared thermal image fusion algorithm. This paper studies the use of highly sensitive infrared thermal imager to collect thermal image data of target objects under different conditions, and preprocesses the collected infrared thermal images. An algorithm based on multi-scale transformation and image fusion is designed to effectively fuse multiple infrared thermal image data sources, and a parametric design mechanism is introduced to allow users to adjust fusion parameters according to actual application scenarios. In this way, users can customise the generation of thermal images that meet specific needs. Through visual simulation technology, the fusion thermal radiation image is displayed in an intuitive way. In the simulation process, different environmental conditions and object characteristics can be simulated to evaluate the performance and applicability of thermal images in different scenarios. The results show that compared with the traditional method, the thermal radiation image generated by this method has a great improvement in resolution and detail performance. The proposed method not only improves the thermal image quality, but also enhances its applicability and flexibility through parametric design.
期刊介绍:
Thermal Science and Engineering Progress (TSEP) publishes original, high-quality research articles that span activities ranging from fundamental scientific research and discussion of the more controversial thermodynamic theories, to developments in thermal engineering that are in many instances examples of the way scientists and engineers are addressing the challenges facing a growing population – smart cities and global warming – maximising thermodynamic efficiencies and minimising all heat losses. It is intended that these will be of current relevance and interest to industry, academia and other practitioners. It is evident that many specialised journals in thermal and, to some extent, in fluid disciplines tend to focus on topics that can be classified as fundamental in nature, or are ‘applied’ and near-market. Thermal Science and Engineering Progress will bridge the gap between these two areas, allowing authors to make an easy choice, should they or a journal editor feel that their papers are ‘out of scope’ when considering other journals. The range of topics covered by Thermal Science and Engineering Progress addresses the rapid rate of development being made in thermal transfer processes as they affect traditional fields, and important growth in the topical research areas of aerospace, thermal biological and medical systems, electronics and nano-technologies, renewable energy systems, food production (including agriculture), and the need to minimise man-made thermal impacts on climate change. Review articles on appropriate topics for TSEP are encouraged, although until TSEP is fully established, these will be limited in number. Before submitting such articles, please contact one of the Editors, or a member of the Editorial Advisory Board with an outline of your proposal and your expertise in the area of your review.
