Summary

To meet the experimental needs of aircraft engine manufacturers, ONERA has undertaken research and development of thin gradient heat fluxmeters for measuring steady or quasi-steady fluxes. Two types of transducers are presented, the first one is a simple gradient fluxmeter usable up to 230°C, sticked on aerodynamical profiles, the second one is a multijunction gradient fluxmeter usable up to 1000°C, directly deposited on profiles or turbine blades. The principle, the design and the main characteristics of the sensors are described, as well as the techniques used for their calibration.
