Embodiment

[0024] Embodiment. This example is mainly designed for the sensor of the optical fiber monitoring system for natural gas pipeline leakage, so it needs to be carried out on the basis of the embodiment of the monitoring system. The monitoring system consists of figure 1 As shown, a fiber optic sensor is installed on the pipeline body every 1.5km, and a total of 10 sensors are installed. The first 5 sensors and the last 5 sensors form a sensor group respectively, and all fiber optic sensor groups share one fiber in the transmission cable with the The light source connection of the system is used as a launch fiber, and each fiber sensor group uses one fiber in the transmission cable to connect to the system photodetector as a return fiber; the output terminal of the photodetector includes the functions of leakage signal identification and event location The signal acquisition and processing module, the signal acquisition and processing module includes a signal conditioner, a signa...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for installing an optical fiber sensor for a natural gas pipeline leakage optical fiber monitoring system. The optical fiber sensor for detecting radial vibration of the pipeline consists of an elastic cylinder (3), a fiber optic interferometer (4) and a tail fiber disk fiber box (1); interference arms of the fiber optic interferometer are uniformly and orderly wound on the periphery of the elastic cylinder (3); an optical fiber and the elastic cylinder (3) are bonded together by using a bonding agent; the fiber optic interferometer left after winding and relevant devices of the fiber optic interferometer are orderly wound in the tail fiber disk fiber box (1); the tail fiber disk fiber box (1) is fixed on the top of the elastic cylinder (3) by using a bonding agent; and the inner depressed end of the elastic cylinder (3) is bonded on the outer surface of a natural gas pipeline by using a bonding agent, and subjected to corresponding pipeline anti-corrosion treatment, so that the entire sensor and an anti-corrosion layer on the surface of the pipeline are butted seamlessly. Due to the adoption of method, the sensitivity of an optical fiber sensing unit probe can be effectively controlled, and good insulating and shielding effects are achieved on signal interference except natural gas leakage.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an installation method of an optical fiber sensor of a natural gas pipeline leakage optical fiber monitoring system, and relates to the technical fields of optical fiber sensing technology, mechanical vibration measurement and pipeline systems. Background technique [0002] At present, the total length of pipelines built in the world has reached 2.5 million kilometers, which has surpassed the total mileage of railways and has become the main mode of energy transportation in the world. Oil transportation in developed countries and oil-producing regions in the Middle East has all realized pipelines. my country's pipelines have also developed rapidly in recent years, with a total length of more than 70,000 kilometers. A large energy pipeline network has initially formed across the east, west, north and south, covering the whole country, and connecting overseas. Pipeline transportation has become the deployment of strategic energy s...
