Abstract

A method for forming a monitoring deposit on a substrate comprises determining a temperature range to subject the substrate to provide a high temperature of operation up to less than a critical substrate deterioration temperature; selecting a binder to monitor temperature by emitting an indicator within the determined temperature range; combining the indicator and the binder; and applying the combined indicator and binder to the substrate to form the monitoring deposit. An article comprises a substrate; and a combined indicator and binder applied into the substrate, wherein the binder emits the indicator within a temperature range determined to subject the substrate to high temperature operation up to less than a critical substrate deterioration temperature. Also, a method of monitoring a gas turbine system comprise selecting a binder to monitor temperature by emitting an indicator within a temperature range determined to permit subjecting a substrate in the system to high temperature operation up to less than a critical turbine substrate deterioration temperature; combining the indicator and the binder; and applying the combined indicator and binder to the substrate to form the mo…
