Fluorescent/fosforescent effect applied to engineering

AI Thread Summary
Fluorescent and phosphorescent effects have significant applications in engineering, particularly in electrical engineering and fluid mechanics. Pressure-sensitive paint is highlighted for its use in aerodynamic testing, where its fluorescence varies with oxygen concentration and pressure. Beyond fluorescent lamps and security advertisements, these effects can enhance measurement techniques in various engineering fields. The discussion emphasizes the importance of exploring innovative uses of these effects in practical applications. Overall, the seminar could benefit from examining diverse engineering applications of fluorescence and phosphorescence.

Hello all,

I have to prepare a seminar about fluorescent/fosforescent effect applied to engineering.
Besides fluorescent lamps, and some advertisements for security. What would you suggest? Mainly in the electrical engineering area.

Thanks in advance,
Joao A.

Not electrical engineering but pressure sensitive paint is used a lot in aerodynamic testing as well as other areas of fluid mechanics. The paint fluoresces and the intensity depends on the local concentration of oxygen which depends on the pressure.
 

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
