Description
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of optical fiber sensing, be specifically related to utilize the long period fiber grating of a pair of different cycles to make the sensor construction that sensor is measured temperature and two parameters of strain simultaneously.
Background technology
Long period fiber grating (LPFG) be a kind of can be with the band resistance type optical fiber filter that couples light to covering of specific wavelength, its resonance wavelength can be along with the variation of the parameters such as the temperature of external environment, strain, refractive index and is changed, according to this principle, the variation of resonance wavelength that can be by measuring LPFG realizes the to external world measurement of environmental physics quantitative change.Because LPFG compares and Fiber Bragg Grating FBG (FBG), and is more responsive to the variation of many external physical quantity, and the higher temperature of LPFG ability, so it has very large application prospect aspect Fibre Optical Sensor.
In temperature and strain while fields of measurement, the people such as H.J.Patrick issue paper (IEEE Photon.Tech.Lett., 1996, Vol.8, No.9, pp.1223-1225) strain and temperature simultaneously measuring scheme proposed, but this scheme needs the combination of Fiber Bragg Grating FBG and long period fiber grating, so that the sensor cost is higher, and volume is larger, is unfavorable for integrated.The river is built, publish thesis (Acta Optica, 2003,32 (9): measure when 1063～1066) proposing to have LPFG/EFPI integrating optical fiber sensor to realize temperature and strain such as Rao Yunjiang.Optical grating strain, the temperature simultaneously measuring sensor that Li Aiqun etc. (ZL 200910026403) propose be with two optical fiber Bragg grating encapsulations in special construction, cause the sensor cost higher, processing inconvenience.
In the fiber-optic grating sensor, the existence of temperature and strain cross sensitivity has had a strong impact on the precision of measuring, and therefore research only has great significance to other physical quantitys variation insensitive optical fiber optical grating sensors to a certain physical quantity sensitive.Utilize the combination of this fiber-optic grating sensor and ordinary optic fibre grating sensor just can realize the accurate measurement of multiparameter.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a pair of long-period fiber grating sensor, utilize one of them LPFG (long period fiber grating) insensitive and to responsive to temperature to strain, another LPFG measures when realizing temperature and strain temperature and the equal responsive characteristics of strain.And because this sensor is to be formed by two LPFG cascades, LPFG itself has resistant to elevated temperatures characteristic, has the ability that works under 750 ℃ of high temperature.
For achieving the above object, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
Measure simultaneously the sensor construction of long period fiber grating temperature and strain, select high frequency CO 2The a pair of long period fiber grating of the different cycles that laser pulse writes in optical fiber, be respectively one to the long period fiber grating of temperature variation sensitivity, with a long period fiber grating to temperature and the equal sensitivity of strain variation, two long period fiber grating are carried out cascade use, can accurately measure temperature and strain variation separately.
Selected optical fiber is the bend resistant single moded fibers with the nano-rings structure.
The long period fiber grating that writes has following characteristics: the resonance wavelength of the long period fiber grating in the specific period scope is to responsive to temperature and insensitive to strain; The resonance wavelength of the long period fiber grating in the general periodic regime is responsive simultaneously to temperature and strain.
This sensor has the ability that still can work during up to 750 ℃ in environment temperature.
This sensor has the simple characteristics of processing, need not the additional encapsulation processs such as isolated temperature, isolation stress except general protection packaging.
The present invention adopts the long period fiber grating of the different cycles of two cascades to come the variation of sensing external environment temperature and strain, and wherein LPFG1 is only to responsive to temperature, i.e. the variation of its resonance wavelength (Δ λ Res) only relevant with temperature variation (Δ T), can be represented by the formula:
Δλ res-LPFG1＝A*ΔT????(1)
LPFG2 is then all responsive to temperature and strain variation (Δ μ ε microstrain), and the variation of resonance wavelength can be expressed as:
Δλ res-LPFG2＝B*ΔT+C*Δμε????(2)
In equation (1) and (2), coefficient A, B, C be Resonant Wavelengths of Long Period Fiber Gratings with the coefficient of temperature and strain variation, simultaneous equations (1) and (2) just can solve the variable quantity of temperature and strain.
Long period fiber grating described in the present invention is to utilize high frequency CO 2Laser instrument is the bend resistant single moded fibers in a kind of Novel belt nano-rings structure of release in 2009 in Corning Incorporated On write, these two long period fiber grating have the different cycles, and their cycle be positioned at same interval, to be in same its resonance wavelength of length of an interval period optical fiber grating identical with the character of temperature and strain variation.
Outstanding advantages of the present invention is: with a long period fiber grating feature measurement temperature variation to the temperature variation sensitivity of a specific period, measure the variation of temperature and strain with another long period fiber grating, thereby realize the measurement of temperature and strain biparametric, provided a kind of scheme that solves the temperature strain cross sensitivity.This type sensor has the ability that works under 750 ℃ of high temperature simultaneously, and does not need special package.
