INFRARED METHOD FOR PLUME RISE VISUALIZATION AND MEASUREMENT
An infrared video camera and recording system were used to record near-source plume rise from a low turbine stack on an oil-gathering center at Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. he system provided real-time, continuous visualization of the plume using a color monitor while the images were recorded with a standar...
