Ultrasonic Al₂O₃ Ceramic Thermometry in High-Temperature Oxidation Environment

In this study, an ultrasonic temperature measurement system was designed with Al₂O₃ high-temperature ceramic as an acoustic waveguide sensor and preliminarily tested in a high-temperature oxidation environment. The test results indicated that the system can indeed work stably in high-temperature environments. The relationship between the temperature and delay time of 26 °C-1600 °C ceramic materials was also determined in order to fully elucidate the high-temperature oxidation of the proposed waveguide sensor and to lay a foundation for the further application of this system in temperatures as high as 2000 °C.
