A nondestructive test method in which heat-sensing devices are used to measure temperature variations in components, structures, systems or physical processes. Thermal methods can be useful in the detection of subsurface flaws or voids, provided the depth of the flaw is not large compared to its diameter. Thermal inspection becomes less effecti ve in the detection of subsurface flaws as the thickness of an object increases, because the possible depth of the defects increases.
