Example 4
The embodiment of the invention measures the current by utilizing the magnetic control refractive index characteristic of the magnetic fluid. It is known from biot-savart law that a magnetic field is generated around a current-carrying conductor and varies with a change in current. The magnetic control refractive index characteristic of the magnetic fluid can be expressed by a langevin function, and the refractive index of the magnetic fluid can be changed along with the change of a magnetic field according to the langevin function, so that the change condition of the current can be obtained by measuring the change of the refractive index of the magnetic fluid.
The magnetic control refractive index characteristic of the magnetic fluid is expressed by a langevin function, and the refractive index of the magnetic fluid can be expressed as follows:

The embodiment of the invention realizes the measurement of the refractive index of the magnetic fluid based on the Fresnel reflection theory: when a light beam is incident on the interface of two media with different refractive indexes, a part of the light will be reflected back. For the absorption medium and the magnetic material, the reflectance (r) of the electric field amplitude can be obtained assuming that the light beam is incident from the medium 1 to the interface with the medium 2s,rp) The expression of (a) is as follows:

In the optical fiber reflective current sensing system based on the magnetic fluid provided in embodiment 3, the end face of the optical fiber of the sensing probe located in the magnetic fluid is specially cut flat (i.e. the optical fiber is cut along the direction perpendicular to the optical fiber axis), so that the incident light and the reflective interface satisfy the normal incidence condition, i.e. i1And i2Are both 0. The light source is selected to be near infrared light with single wavelength, and has relative permeability mu for medium 1 and medium 21And mu2May be 1. Therefore, the electric field amplitude reflectivity relationships (1) and (2) can be simplified as follows:

Based on the above concept, corresponding to the magnetofluid-based optical fiber reflective current sensing system provided in embodiment 3, an embodiment of the present invention provides an optical fiber reflective current sensing method based on a magnetofluid, including the following steps:
s201: obtaining the intrinsic reflected light power P of the system according to the formula (6) by adopting a known sample calibration method0
Figure BDA0002537415850000096
Specifically, the reason why step S201 is provided is that there are cases where: the optical fiber is inserted into the solution to be measured, and under the condition that no light source is provided, the reflected light power which is not zero can be actually detected, namely, the intrinsic reflection phenomenon exists in the system. In order to solve the problem, the known sample calibration method is adopted in the step, namely the intrinsic reflected light power of the system is indirectly obtained by measuring the reflected light power of two samples through the two samples with known refractive indexes, so that the interference caused by the intrinsic reflection can be eliminated.
As an implementation mode, the air and the deionized water are used as the calibration samples in the embodiment of the invention. In order to eliminate the influence of other light intensity parameters incident on the interface, the intrinsic reflection and the refractive index of the magnetofluid are calculated by using a proportional algorithm in step S201. At one standard atmosphere, room temperature T ═ 20 ℃, for near infrared light, the refractive indices of air and deionized water were: n isa1.00027 and nw1.333, their attenuation coefficient is ka=kw0, so
Figure BDA0002537415850000101
The intrinsic reflected light power P can be obtained from the formula (5)0The relationship of (A) is as follows:
Figure BDA0002537415850000102
wherein S is the effective cross-sectional area of the fiber end face, PaAnd PwThe reflected light power measured with the pre-packaged fiber in air and water, respectively.
S202: according to the intrinsic reflected light power P0Calculating according to the formula (7) to obtain the reflected light power P of the optical fiber in the magnetic fluidMFAnd refractive index n of magnetic fluidMFThe relation of (1):
Figure BDA0002537415850000103
s203: calculating the refractive index n of the magnetic fluid according to the formula (8)MF

In fact, as can be seen from the formula (7), for each PMFAre all correspondingly provided with two nMFThe value, and therefore the negative sign between the first and second terms of the polynomial in equation (8), is due to: the first term of the polynomial in the formula (8) is constantly larger than nfThe second term is non-negative, and the magnetic fluid used in the present embodiment is Fe3O4And the actual refractive index of the water-based magnetic fluid is slightly less than that of the fiber core, so that the second term of the formula (8) takes a negative sign.
In the formula (7), PMFThe light intensity is detected by a photoelectric detector, i.e. the optical fiber is placed in the magnetic fluid and reflected from the end faceThe optical power, formula (8), is obtained by combining formulas (6) and (7).
Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only intended to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, but not to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some technical features may be equivalently replaced; and such modifications or substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the corresponding technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
