AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, optical fibers are prone to debonding and burning or a decrease in light transmittance due to radiant heat and conductive heat when burning in boilers of thermal power plants. This causes the flame detector to generate a no-flame signal, which in turn leads to boiler shutdown.

Method used

A dual-layer cooling method is adopted, which directly cools the optical fiber through the cooling air duct between the inner and outer ducts, and uses an acceleration air duct to increase the speed of the cooling air. Combined with the design of flexible optical fiber components and fire detection probe, the optical fiber can be effectively cooled.

Benefits of technology

It effectively reduces the temperature of optical fibers, avoids damage to optical fibers, ensures the stable operation of flame detectors, and prevents boiler shutdowns.
