Abstract

The invention discloses an optical fiber sensing system for simultaneously measuring liquid level and liquid temperature and a measuring method thereof. The optical fiber sensing system comprises a threaded encapsulating pipe, a microstructure optical fiber and a coherent phase demodulation device, wherein the microstructure optical fiber is embedded into a threaded groove of the threaded encapsulating pipe, one end of the microstructure optical fiber is connected into the coherent phase demodulation device, and the other end of the microstructure optical fiber is connected into a to-be-measured liquid; the surface of the threaded encapsulating pipe is coated with a layer of soft glue for encapsulating and protecting the microstructure optical fiber. The coherent phase demodulation deviceis used for demodulating distributed sensing signals in the microstructure optical fiber, measuring the temperature response of each independent sensing section in the microstructure optical fiber, and calculating the liquid level and the liquid temperature. The height of the liquid level is roughly determined according to the sensing sections of liquid surface temperature abrupt change parts; then, the height of the liquid level is accurately determined according to the relationship between phase changes of the sensing sections and the height of the liquid level, so that full-distributed sensing is achieved, the system response dynamic range is wide, the measurement precision is high, the response speed is high, and the application range is wide.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of optical fiber sensing, and more specifically, to an optical fiber sensing system for simultaneous measurement of liquid level and liquid temperature and a measurement method thereof. Background technique [0002] Liquid level and temperature monitoring are very important in fields such as oil transportation and storage, chemical processing, flood warning, and wastewater treatment. For example, in an oil storage tank, accurate measurement of liquid level and oil temperature can understand the production and storage conditions in real time, ensure safe and stable production and storage, and have a great impact on inventory management and economic operations. The current mainstream liquid level sensors are all based on electrical sensing. For example, the existing capacitive sensor requires a metal capacitor plate and metal wiring to be placed in the tank. This kind of electrical wiring requires careful shielding...
