Problems solved by technology

The traditional method of measuring the change of flow velocity uses a hot wire flow velocity sensor of mechanical parts, but this device has a long response time, large volume, and is easy to wear
In recent years, ultrasonic anemometers based on ultrasonic propagation and Doppler current meters based on Doppler effect have appeared successively. These two types of flow meters have their own advantages, but due to limited environmental conditions, high production costs, and low detection accuracy, It is not easy to miniaturize and other reasons, so its application promotion is limited

Abstract

The invention relates to a piezoelectric fiber array sensor for sensing flow velocity change and a measurement method thereof. The sensor comprises a flexible base, micro array strip-shaped fiber sensing units, conductive thin film and electrode layers; the flexible base is in an axisymmetric shape and is provided with a plurality of side surfaces; the micro array strip-shaped fiber sensing unitsare fixed on the side surfaces through the ends of a suspension beam structure; output units which are composed of the conductive thin film and the electrode layers are arranged on the connection portions of the micro array strip-shaped fiber sensing units and the side surfaces. The measurement method comprises the steps that the piezoelectric fiber array sensor for sensing the flow velocity change is placed in a wind field, the micro array strip-shaped fiber sensing units of the sensor directly face the flow velocity direction, and output signals of the output units of the sensor are collected; then, through a linear fitting method, the mathematic relation of the flow velocity and the sensing electric signals is calibrated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a novel micro-piezoelectric fiber array sensor for sensing changes in flow velocity and a measuring method thereof, belonging to the field of bionic materials and intelligent structures. Background technique [0002] Space velocity detection is widely used in robot perception system, meteorological monitoring, biomedicine, aviation guidance and national defense weaponry. The traditional method of measuring the change of flow velocity uses a hot wire flow velocity sensor of mechanical parts, but this device has a long response time, a large volume, and is easy to wear. In recent years, ultrasonic anemometers based on ultrasonic propagation and Doppler current meters based on Doppler effect have appeared successively. These two types of flow meters have their own advantages, but due to limited environmental conditions, high production costs, and low detection accuracy, Its application promotion is limited due to the difficulty o...
