Description

Optical fiber Fabry-Perot sensor for monitoring corrosion of steel
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of structural health monitoring, and particularly relates to an optical fiber Fabry-Perot sensor for monitoring steel corrosion.
Background
The steel has the advantages of good plasticity and toughness, high strength, good earthquake resistance, convenient manufacture and the like, so the steel is widely applied in the field of civil engineering and is one of civil engineering materials which are most applied in the world at present. However, for important engineering structures (steel structure bridges, offshore oil platforms, etc.) which are exposed to atmospheric environment for a long time, steel corrosion is one of the important factors for durability failure of the engineering structures. Therefore, the corrosion condition of structural steel must be effectively monitored, and the structural durability must be accurately judged, so that the safety of important and important structures is guaranteed, and the rapid and healthy development of national economy is promoted.
At present, methods for monitoring corrosion of steel materials can be roughly classified into electrochemical methods and non-electrochemical methods. Among them, the electrochemical methods include a half-cell potential method, a linear polarization method, an alternating current impedance method, an electrochemical noise method, and the like, and the non-electrochemical methods include an apparent inspection method, a weight loss method, an ultrasonic method, an eddy current method, an acoustic emission method, and the like. However, most of the above monitoring methods have the problems of inconvenient operation, complex monitoring process, long monitoring execution time, low monitoring accuracy and the like.
In recent years, some sensors based on optical fiber sensing technology are also used for corrosion monitoring of steel products due to the advantages of small and light optical fibers, electromagnetic interference resistance, flexible form design, real-time monitoring, networking, reliable data and the like.
Therefore, it is necessary to provide a real, effective, convenient, accurate and reliable optical fiber sensor from a new technical point of view for monitoring the corrosion condition of steel products, thereby providing an important basis for predicting the durability and service life of an engineering structure.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, the invention aims to provide an optical fiber Fabry-Perot sensor for monitoring the corrosion of steel, and aims to realize quantitative monitoring of the local corrosion degree of the steel and accurately judge the durability of a structure, thereby ensuring the safety of important engineering structures.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
an optical fiber Fabry-Perot sensor for monitoring steel corrosion comprises an interlayer material 1, a gold-plated silicon mirror 2, a round tube-shaped permanent magnet 3, a single-mode optical fiber 4, an optical fiber ceramic ferrule 5, a sealing ring 6 and a shell 7;
the sandwich material 1 is positioned in the shell 7 and is arranged at the bottom of the shell 7;
the gold-plated silicon mirror 2 is arranged at the central position of the upper surface of the interlayer material 1;
the round tube-shaped permanent magnet 3 is of a ring body structure, vertically pressed on the interlayer material 1 and integrally positioned in the shell 7; the gold-plated silicon mirror 2 is positioned in a cavity formed by an inner ring of the circular tube-shaped permanent magnet 3;
the single-mode optical fiber 4 is arranged in an optical fiber ceramic ferrule 5, the optical fiber ceramic ferrule 5 is positioned in a cavity formed by an inner ring of the round tube-shaped permanent magnet 3, the top end of the optical fiber ceramic ferrule 5 passes through the round tube-shaped permanent magnet 3, and the optical fiber ceramic ferrule is sealed at the top of a shell 7 through a sealing ring 6.
The gold-plated silicon mirror 2 is adhered on the interlayer material 1 by using thin epoxy resin.
The end surfaces of the single-mode optical fiber and the gold-plated silicon mirror form a Fabry-Perot resonant cavity, and when the interlayer material deforms, the cavity length of the Fabry-Perot resonant cavity is correspondingly changed.
The end surfaces of the gold-plated silicon mirror 2 and the single-mode optical fiber 4 are parallel and coaxial.
The diameter of the inner ring of the round tube-shaped permanent magnet 3 is larger than that of the gold-plated silicon mirror 2.
The reflectivity of the gold-plated silicon mirror 2 is 99%.
The shell 7 is used for packaging the sensor structure, so that the extrinsic optical fiber Fabry-Perot interference is protected, and the space between the gold-plated silicon mirror and the end face of the single-mode optical fiber is free from dust.
The working principle of the invention is as follows:
taking the steel sheet that structural steel awaits measuring as an example, the steel sheet takes place the pitting back, is corroded the position department and can produce one and corrode the pit, leads to this local steel sheet thickness t of department to change to arouse that the permanent magnet also takes place corresponding change to the magnetic attraction F of steel sheet. At the same time, the change of the magnetic attraction force F can cause the deformation delta of the interlayer material which acts on the interlayer materialdTherefore, the cavity length L of the Fabry-Perot resonant cavity of the optical fiber Fabry-Perot sensor is changed, and the interference output signal intensity I is correspondingly changed.
Optical fiber Fabry-Perot sensingThe F-P resonant cavity of the device is formed by a gold-plated silicon mirror and the end face of a single-mode optical fiber. The first reflection at the end face of the single-mode fiber is called the reference light reflection and the deformation delta of the interlayer materialdIrrelevant; the second reflection of the gold-coated silicon mirror is called sensing reflection and depends on the cavity length L of the Fabry-Perot resonant cavity, and the cavity length L is deformed by the interlayer material by deltadModulation of (3). The two reflected beams produce an interference pattern, and the output intensity I of the interference signal can be represented in the form of a sine wave:
in the formula I1And I2The reflected light intensities of the end face of the single-mode optical fiber and the gold-plated silicon mirror are respectively; n is the refractive index of air and takes the value of 1;
Figure BDA0002300733430000032
is the initial phase difference of the interference; the wavelength difference between two successive minima in the interference spectrum, defined as the Free Spectral Range (FSR), can be expressed as
Figure BDA0002300733430000033
In the formula, λaAnd λbAre the wavelengths corresponding to the two peaks in the interference spectrum of the extrinsic fiber fabry-perot interference. Therefore, the cavity length L can be determined by the relation (2), and the change amount Δ L of the cavity length L is also determined thereby.
Since the change in cavity length L is caused by the deformation of the interlayer material and the two changes are identical, the cavity length L is changed by the deformation of the interlayer material
Δd=ΔL (3)
According to the constitutive relation of the interlayer material:
Figure BDA0002300733430000034
wherein d is the length of the sandwich material before deformation, E is the elastic modulus of the sandwich material, and A is the cross-sectional area of the sandwich material.
The magnetic attraction force F can therefore be determined by the relation (4).
From the angle of a magnetic field theory, although the formula method is simple and convenient to calculate the magnetic attraction of the permanent magnet to the steel plate, related parameters are difficult to accurately estimate, the error is large, and a numerical analysis method is required to be applied to the accurate calculation of the magnetic attraction, a numerical analysis program is applied to carry out finite element analysis, and the relation between the magnetic attraction F and the thickness t of the steel plate is accurately determined:
F=αt (5)
wherein α is a multi-parameter relationship coefficient determined by finite element analysis.
Obtaining the magnetic attraction force F based on the relation (2), and obtaining the thickness t of the corroded steel plate according to the relation (5)1Corrosion thickness of steel plate
Δt=t1-t0(6)
In the formula, t0Thickness of non-corroded steel sheet, t1The thickness of the steel plate after corrosion.
Therefore, based on the inventive principle, we can corrode the steel plate by the thickness ΔtThe corrosion degree of the steel plate to be tested can be judged.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
(1) the invention realizes quantitative monitoring of the corrosion degree of steel by monitoring the cavity length variation of the Fabry-Perot resonant cavity.
(2) The optical fiber Fabry-Perot sensor has extremely high resolution and can reach the nanometer or sub-nanometer level.

(7) The invention has the advantages of simple structure, reasonable design, strong applicability, easy manufacture, low price, wide application prospect and wide popularization market.
