Abstract
By using the IEEE methods, we can make the smart sensors in order to make the AIAA smarter. For example, accurate measurement of the surface temperature of the turbine blade plays an indispensable role to keep the best engine efficiency by optimizing the dynamic balance between the high temperature and the cooling effect. The smartness has two meanings: smarter way to build sensor and smarter usage of the sensor. In this chapter, we prepose a few smarter scenarios of AIAA of our TFTC and SAW smart sensors such as evaluating TBC’s temperature barrier quality, NGV cooling performance tests, evaluating various cooling holes on turbine blade, etc.. Most of such smarter uses are presented the first time since the embedded TFTC and SAW sensors are also newly developed smart sensors. The smart ways to build and test sensors will be addressed in the following two chapters.
