  "textContent": "Active acoustic velocity and pyrometry-based gas flow velocity and temperature measurement, such as for monitoring of gas turbine combustors, including industrial gas turbine (IGT) combustors is incorporated into the combustion monitoring and control system by addition of an acoustic transmitter or acoustic transceiver that transmits a sound wave in a line-of-sight with a plurality of acoustic sensors, such as dynamic pressure sensors. For velocity measurement, sound transmission time-of-flight that is directed generally along the gas flow path is measured by the controller and correlated with gas flow velocity along the line-of-sight. Similarly, sound transmission time-of-flight is correlated with temperature along the line-of-sight. Path(s) of acoustic transmission serve as velocity or velocity/absolute temperature measurement. In an integrated thermoacoustic pressure-based sensor and monitoring/control system embodiment, the controller correlates velocity and, if desired, absolute active path temperatures with acoustic transmission and time-of-flight analysis techniques.",
