Abstract
Thermography is getting more and more popular in many fields of everyday life nowadays. It is successfully applied in heat investigations. Infrared cameras imaging includes thermal analyses of building physics, thermal bridges or insulation improvement inspection. Flir E30 infrared camera was used in order to conduct measurements of two chimneys located in Kielce Power Station in Poland. The first tested facility is a structural steel chimney thermally isolated with mineral wool. The other chimney is built of reinforced concrete material. An infrared camera tests enabled the creation of the diagrams presenting the temperature distribution along the chimneys in different orientations. The research proved the correct functioning of both chimneys.
