Abstract

This invention relates to a sensor capable of timely monitoring and measuring the parameters of flow rate and flow capacities of various fluids composed of a sealed extension tube, a fiber grating, a split ring and fibers characterizing that the flow rates of the designed flow rate pressure tube are different at two places, which are used in converting the flow rate to pressure for sensing and monitoring. When a fluid flows through the tube, a pressure difference exists between the inside and outside of the extension tube to drive it to extend and shorten along the axis and further to drive the split ring to compress and extend to result in the shift of the fiber grating central wavelength to be used to sense and monitor parameters of flow rates and flow capacities of high flexibility.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sensing device, capable of high-precision real-time monitoring and measurement of parameters such as flow velocity and flow rate of various fluids, and can be widely used in many fields such as building structures, aerospace, marine exploration and scientific research, and belongs to a Novel non-destructive testing technology. Background technique [0002] Fiber Bragg Grating is a new photonic device that has appeared recently, which is a spatially periodic refractive index distribution formed in the fiber core. This periodic structure can change and control the propagation behavior of light waves in optical fibers. The fiber grating sensor is to embed the fiber grating inside the substrate material and structure or paste it on its surface to make it sensitive to the parameter to be measured, and sense the size and direction of the parameter to be measured through the change of the wavelength and bandwidth of the fiber grati...
