Oil content in the ocean needs to be monitored for the human beings to track the health of our marine ecosystem as well as to take any early action regarding natural seeps and human-made oil spills. Sensitive, robust, reliable, and low power sensors are needed to establish sensor network in the ocean for high temporal and spatial resolution oil content monitoring.

Deepwater Applications for Brazilian Pre-Salt Exploration Using Underwater Sensor Networks

This paper proposes an underwater positioning system built with sensors distributed over the submarine infrastructure responsible for the oil production, which will be located by trilateration of acoustic signals emitted by units (vessels and platforms) with known coordinates. However, the acoustic signals needed to the calculation of the position depend on the vessels within sensors range. Thu...

An on-chip, multichannel droplet sorter using standing surface acoustic waves.

The emerging field of droplet microfluidics requires effective on-chip handling and sorting of droplets. In this work, we demonstrate a microfluidic device that is capable of sorting picoliter water-in-oil droplets into multiple outputs using standing surface acoustic waves (SSAW). This device integrates a single-layer microfluidic channel with interdigital transducers (IDTs) to achieve on-chip...

Microfluidic on-demand droplet merging using surface acoustic waves.

Individual droplets can be isolated within microfluidic systems by use of an immiscible carrier layer. This type of two phase systems, often termed "digital microfluidics", find wide ranging applications in chemical synthesis and analysis. To conduct on-chip biochemical analysis, a key step is to be able to merge droplets selectively in order to initiate the required reactions. In this paper, a...

Acoustic Detection of Partial Discharges in Insulation Oil

In this paper, we performed an insulation diagnosis technique for oil-immersed power transformers by an acoustic detection method. Electrode system such as needle to plane electrode was fabricated to simulate a defect of power transformers. In addition, the frequency spectrum of acoustic signals with partial discharge (PD) in insulating oil was analyzed. From the FFT result, the frequency spect...
