Abstract:
The paper shows the possible implementation of Infrared (IR) ice detection technique. The experimental setup is implemented keeping in view of the marine icing phenomena over the ships and offshore structures. The detection mechanism is unique from the passive IR detection by introducing the active heating concept. The intervention of the active heating information inside the IR ice detection system will be able to improve the system’s detection capability and disseminate the valid information at user interface level. The experimentation shows valid detection of ice and no/ice conditions based on consistent temperature gradients.
