Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber sensors, and more specifically, to an optical fiber grating hot wire wind speed sensor based on a multi-core optical fiber and a measuring device thereof. Background Art
[0002] Wind is a natural phenomenon that is ubiquitous. The monitoring of wind speed plays a very important role in many fields such as industrial and agricultural production, transportation, aerospace, and the automotive industry. Wind speed measurement sensors are mainly divided into mechanical wind speed sensors and differential pressure wind speed sensors. Mechanical wind speed sensors include stress micro-bend fiber optic wind speed sensors and three-cup anemometers; differential pressure wind speed sensors include differential pressure fiber optic Fabry-Perot wind speed sensors and Pitot tube anemometers. There are also vortex gas flow sensors, ultrasonic wind speed sensors, thermal gas flow sensors, and particle imaging flow sensors. These sensors are susceptible to electromagnetic interference, high cost, and large size. In recent years, fiber optic anemometers have become the trend of wind speed measurement research due to their high sensitivity, ease of use, anti-electromagnetic interference, and wide measurement range. The combination of fiber grating technology and wind speed sensing technology has broad research prospects and research significance.
[0003] The prior art discloses an optical fiber flow sensor based on doped fiber Bragg gratings, including a doped optical fiber with fiber Bragg grating A engraved, a single-mode optical fiber with fiber Bragg grating B engraved, a wavelength demodulation module, a wavelength division multiplexer and a pump laser; the doped optical fiber and the single-mode optical fiber are core-welded to serve as the sensing unit of the sensor, and the wavelength division multiplexer connects the sensing unit with the pump laser and the wavelength demodulation module. The application fuses two sections of optical fiber to the core, which has defects such as core diameter mismatch, poor fiber concentricity, and fiber end face contamination, resulting in large optical fiber transmission loss; and the signal light and the pump light are transmitted in the same optical fiber, and the fiber Bragg grating will affect the signal light, resulting in inaccurate flow data finally measured. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to overcome the defect in the above-mentioned existing wind speed sensor that the signal light and the pump light affect the signal light when they are transmitted together in a single-mode optical fiber, resulting in inaccurate measurement results, the present invention provides a fiber grating hot wire wind speed sensor based on a multi-core optical fiber and a measuring device thereof, which can separate the signal light and the pump light for transmission, avoid affecting the signal light, and ensure accurate measurement results.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:
[0006] The present invention provides a fiber Bragg grating hot-wire wind speed sensor based on a multi-core optical fiber, wherein the wind speed sensor comprises a multi-core optical fiber, a long-period optical fiber grating, a fiber Bragg grating and a metal film;
[0007] The long-period fiber grating and the fiber Bragg grating are arranged in different cores of the multi-core optical fiber; and the metal film is coated on the circumference of the multi-core optical fiber.
[0008] The present invention places the long-period fiber grating and the fiber Bragg grating in different cores of a multi-core optical fiber, respectively, so that the signal light and the pump light are transmitted separately in the multi-core optical fiber, avoiding the influence of the long-period fiber grating on the signal light, and the final measurement result is more accurate.
[0009] The principle of the fiber Bragg grating hot wire wind speed sensor is that the pump light is coupled to the fiber cladding through the long-period fiber Bragg grating. The metal film coated on the multi-core optical fiber absorbs the pump light to generate heat, causing the temperature of the fiber Bragg grating to rise and the reflected wavelength to redshift. When the external wind speed is not zero, the temperature of the metal film decreases, and then the temperature of the fiber Bragg grating also decreases, and the reflected wavelength blueshifts. The amount of wavelength blueshift has a fixed relationship with the wind speed, thereby measuring the wind speed.
[0010] Preferably, the length of the long-period fiber grating is greater than the length of the fiber Bragg grating.
[0011] Preferably, the projection of the long-period fiber grating on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber does not overlap with the projection of the fiber Bragg grating on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber.
[0012] Preferably, the distance d between the projection of the long-period fiber grating on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber and the projection of the fiber Bragg grating on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber is in the range of 3-5 mm.
[0013] Preferably, the projection of the metal film on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber does not overlap with the projection of the long-period fiber grating on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber, so as to avoid the influence of the temperature change of the metal film on the transmission spectrum of the long-period fiber grating.
[0014] Preferably, the projection of the metal film on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber coincides with the projection of the fiber Bragg grating on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber.
[0015] Preferably, two ends of the projection of the fiber Bragg grating on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber extend from two ends of the projection of the metal film on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber, ensuring that the heat generated by the metal film is transferred to the fiber Bragg grating more efficiently.
[0016] Preferably, the projection of the fiber Bragg grating on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber coincides with the projection of the metal film on the axis of the multi-core optical fiber, thereby ensuring the utilization rate of the fiber Bragg grating.
[0017] Preferably, the metal film is a silver film.
[0018] The present invention also provides a wind speed measuring device, which includes the above-mentioned wind speed sensor, a fiber grating wavelength demodulator, a pump light source and a photon lantern;
[0019] The output end of the pump light source is connected to the first input end of the photon lantern, and the pump light source generates pump light to input the photon lantern;
[0020] The output end of the fiber Bragg grating wavelength demodulator is connected to the second input end of the photon lantern, and the fiber Bragg grating wavelength demodulator generates signal light which is input into the photon lantern;
[0021] The output end of the photon lantern is close to the end of the wind speed sensor where the long-period fiber grating is located. The pump light is injected into the core of the multi-core optical fiber provided with the long-period fiber grating, and the signal light is injected into the core of the multi-core optical fiber provided with the fiber Bragg grating; the pump light is coupled to the optical fiber cladding through the long-period fiber grating and absorbed by the metal film; the signal light is reflected by the fiber Bragg grating and input into the fiber grating wavelength demodulator by the photon lantern.
[0022] Preferably, the wavelength of the pump light generated by the pump light source is included in the resonance peak of the long-period fiber grating.
[0023] The pump light source is used to generate pump light. The wavelength of the pump light must be included in the resonance peak of the long-period fiber grating. It is injected into the core of the multi-core optical fiber provided with the long-period fiber grating through a photon lantern, and the long-period fiber grating couples the pump light to the optical fiber cladding. The optical fiber cladding of the multi-core optical fiber is coated with a metal film. After the metal film absorbs the energy of the pump light, the temperature rises, and then the temperature of the fiber Bragg grating also rises. The signal light generated by the fiber Bragg grating wavelength demodulator is injected into the core of the multi-core optical fiber provided with the fiber Bragg grating through the photon lantern. After the signal light is reflected by the fiber Bragg grating, it is input into the fiber Bragg grating wavelength demodulator by the photon lantern, and the fiber Bragg grating wavelength demodulator can analyze the wavelength of the reflected light. As the temperature of the fiber Bragg grating increases, the reflected wavelength redshifts. When the wind speed is not zero, the temperature of the metal film decreases, the temperature of the fiber Bragg grating also decreases, and the reflected wavelength blueshifts. There is a fixed relationship between the blueshift amount and the wind speed. The wind speed can be demodulated by measuring the blueshift amount of the reflected wavelength.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] The present invention arranges a long-period fiber grating and a fiber Bragg grating in different cores of a multi-core optical fiber, so that signal light and pump light are transmitted separately, the pump light does not interfere with the signal light and the reflected light, and the signal light loss is small; the metal film coated on the circumference of the multi-core optical fiber is used to generate temperature changes and cause the temperature changes of the fiber Bragg grating, thereby causing the wavelength of the signal light reflected by the fiber Bragg grating to change, and obtain wind speed information; the present invention has a simple structure, a small volume, and a high sensitivity, and can measure accurate wind speed.

[0071] Where P is the energy of the pump light input into the optical fiber, is the coupling efficiency, a Ag represents the absorption efficiency of the silver film to the pump light, H loss Indicates the heat lost by the sensor to the air;
[0072] According to the heat transfer theorem and Newton's cooling law, the heat H lost by the sensor to the air loss It is expressed as:
[0073]
[0074] Where, T (v) Indicates the temperature of the sensor, T e represents the ambient temperature, A and B represent the empirical calibration constants, and v represents the wind speed; then the temperature of the sensor T (v) The relationship with wind speed v is:
[0075]
[0076] The relationship between the center wavelength drift of the fiber Bragg grating and the temperature change is:
[0077] Δλ=λ0(α Λ +ζ)ΔT
[0078] ΔT=T (v) -T e
[0079] Δλ=λ-λ0
[0080] In the formula, Δλ represents the central wavelength drift of the fiber Bragg grating, λ0 represents the initial wavelength of the fiber Bragg grating before heating, λ represents the wavelength of the fiber Bragg grating at the current heating moment, and α Λ represents the thermal expansion coefficient of the multi-core optical fiber, ζ represents the thermo-optical coefficient of the multi-core optical fiber;
