[0002] Key components in large combustion systems such as power plant boilers and gas turbines operate in complex and extreme environments for a long time, and will be damaged by the erosion of high temperature pulsation of turbulent flames, affecting the safe and stable operation of the entire equipment. Therefore, the surface temperature of key components at the hot end of the combustion system is one of the important indicators of concern. In actual work, due to the constraints of working environments such as temperature, pressure, dust, and measurement distance, the surface temperature monitoring technology of key components in large combustion systems has certain difficulties.

The highly adaptable non-contact infrared temperature measurement method, especially when measuring at long distances, has multiple interference signals in the propagation path of the radiation signal, which increases the difficulty of infrared temperature measurement instruments to extract useful signals. In addition, the infrared measurement device needs to have high sensitivity at room temperature or even lower temperatures, so it needs to be installed far away from the combustion system. This free installation method increases the complexity and uncertainty of the entire system.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an integrated high-temperature resistant cooling probe with adjustable distance that can be assembled with the combustion system. According to the internal fire environment of the combustion system, an installable cooling-type adjustable-length probe is introduced as a directional transmission path for the radiation signal.
