Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the present invention is elaborated.
Referring to Fig. 1, the reactor core temperature monitoring system based on fiber-optic grating sensor, comprises Surveillance center 1, and Surveillance center 1 comprises light source 2 and optical circulator 3, and optical circulator 3 is connected with computer 5 by demodulating system 4; Optical circulator 3 is connected with standard traffic optical fiber 8, and standard traffic optical fiber 8 is connected with fiber grating 6 by connector 7, and fiber grating 6 is placed in heap in-core.
Fiber grating 6 is for being engraved in the grating of copper/carbon coated optical fiber, the additional carbon-coating of covering and copper layer that copper/carbon coated optical fiber is Standard single-mode fiber.
Connector 7 is FC/PC type connector.
Light source 2 is wideband light source.
Fiber grating 6 is high-temperature resistant optical fiber grating.
The monitoring method of the above-mentioned reactor core temperature monitoring system based on fiber-optic grating sensor, the light that light source 2 sends is through optical circulator 3, by standard traffic optical fiber 8, pass into heap in-core, the light that fiber grating 6 reflects passes through optical circulator 3 again, by demodulating system 4 demodulation, through computer 5, process, calculate the variation of core temperature.
Generally, there is the positively-modulated of refractive index in fiber core in the process of inscribing grating, and refractive index becomes large, shows as foveal reflex wavelength and to long wave direction, moves lentamente in ablation process.This class grating is common grating, and applicable surface is the widest, is called as I type fiber grating.Yet when common fiber-optic grating sensor is at high temperature worked, optical grating construction was even wiped free of in a few minutes completely at several hours, this phenomenon is called the heat fading effect of fiber grating.Therefore, they measure occasion at continuous high temperature does not have use value.
The preparation of II type fiber grating needs the laser that energy density is higher, in preparation process, exist the Nonlinear optical absorption to laser, thereby cause the melting of the glass lattice structure in optical fiber, produce larger index modulation, so II type fiber grating possesses superior high-temperature stability.Following table has been summed up the optical fiber that can be used for higher temperature:
Fiber type Withstand temperature (℃) The price of every meter ($)
Polyimide coated optical fiber 300 0.7
Aluminium coated fiber 450 15
Copper/carbon coated optical fiber 600 15
Multimode sapphire fiber 2050 1520
The II type fiber grating of making by the method for phase mask on multimode crystalline sapphire optical fiber of femto-second laser, can under the hot environment of 1500 ℃, normally work and reflectivity without obvious decay, its temperature control raises along with the rising of temperature, and near the temperature control 1200 ℃ is 25pm/ ℃.But sapphire fiber is multimode optical fiber, and junction loss is larger, and price is more expensive, and can not do distributed measurement.Conventional coating or sheath can melt under high-temperature condition, affect the mechanical property of optical fiber, so be not suitable for the monitoring of nuclear power plant equipment.Copper/carbon applies can bear higher temperature, and copper has good radiation resistance, and the grating of making at copper/carbon coated optical fiber of point-to-point writing method, can meet 600 ℃ of following working temperatures of nuclear power plant equipment.Consider, select and on copper/carbon coated optical fiber, make grating.
The grating of inscribing on copper/carbon coated optical fiber with femto-second laser, adopts the mode of wavelength-division multiplex to be built into an optical fibre optical grating sensing array, is connected, and optical fiber optical grating array is placed in to heap in-core by FC/PC type connector with standard traffic optical fiber.As shown in Figure 1, the light that light source sends is through optical circulator, by standard traffic optical fiber transmission, enter in the fiber grating on copper/carbon coated optical fiber, if the temperature of reactor core changes, to cause the drift of the centre wavelength of the grating on copper/carbon coated optical fiber, the light that fiber grating reflects arrives monitoring temperature center through optical circulator, by demodulating system demodulation, through computer, process again, can calculate the variable quantity of temperature.
The effective refractive index n of the variation of fiber grating temperature field surrounding to fiber core eff(pitch) Λ all has impact with the grating cycle, by fiber grating equation
λ B=2n effΛ (1)
While obtaining grating variation of ambient temperature of living in, will cause reflected wavelength lambda bdrift.
If temperature variation is Δ T, the variation of the FBG centre wavelength of answering in contrast can be provided by formula (2),
Δλ BT=λ B(1+ξ)ΔT (2)
In formula, ξ is the thermo-optical coeffecient of optical fiber.
When nuclear reactor temperature variation, through demodulating system and computer, process the drift value Δ λ that can obtain bragg reflection wavelength bT, get final product the variation of accounting temperature.
