Abstract
Thermography is the science of detecting and measuring variations in heat e mitted by an object and transforming them into visible images. It is a rapi dly developing technology for diagnosis and nondestructive testing in many applications. This article will illustrate applications where thermography can be used in the heating, ventilating, and airconditioning arena. Finally , the article will suggest issues to consider when establishing an IR therm ography program or when contracting with others to perform the service.
