An inspection system includes a thermographic sensor configured to capture thermographic data of a component having holes as a fluid is pulsed toward the holes, and one or more processors configured to temporally process the thermographic data to calculate temporal scores and spatial scores for the corresponding holes. The scores can be used to obtain a reference dataset and a test dataset. A performance score can be assigned to the component based on the difference between the datasets.
A method of performance scoring airflow through a turbine engine component having a first surface and a second surface spaced from the first surface, and a plurality of film holes with inlets formed in the second surface fluidly coupled to outlets formed in the first surface, the method comprising:
