Fiber-Optic Pyrometer with Optically Powered Switch for Temperature Measurements
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the experimental results on a new infrared fiber-optic pyrometer for very localized and high-speed temperature measurements ranging from 170 to 530 °C using low-noise photodetectors and high-gain transimpedance amplifiers with a single gain mode in the whole temperature range. We also report a shutter based on an optical fiber switch which is optically powered to provide a reference signal in an optical fiber pyrometer measuring from 200 to 550 °C. The tests show the potential of remotely powering via optical means a 300 mW power-hungry optical switch at a distance of 100 m, avoiding any electromagnetic interference close to the measuring point.

Brake disc surface temperature measurement using a fiber optic two-color pyrometer
A fiber optic two-color pyrometer was developed for brake disc surface temperature measurement. The two-color pyrometer is composed of a fluoride glass fiber and two HgCdTe detectors equipped with bandwidth filters. The two-color pyrometer allows the measurement of brake disc temperature in the 200-800 °C range with a time resolution above 7 μs. Calibration formula for the signals obtained usin...
متن کاملScanning optical pyrometer for measuring temperatures in hollow cathodes.
Life-limiting processes in hollow cathodes are determined largely by the temperature of the electron emitter. To support cathode life assessment, a noncontact temperature measurement technique which employs a stepper motor-driven fiber optic probe was developed. The probe is driven inside the hollow cathode and collects light radiated by the hot interior surface of the emitter. Ratio pyrometry ...

متن کاملTemperature Measurement and Numerical Prediction in Machining Inconel 718
Thermal issues are critical when machining Ni-based superalloy components designed for high temperature applications. The low thermal conductivity and extreme strain hardening of this family of materials results in elevated temperatures around the cutting area. This elevated temperature could lead to machining-induced damage such as phase changes and residual stresses, resulting in reduced serv...
متن کاملFiber-optic flow sensors for high-temperature environment operation up to 800°C.
This Letter presents an all-optical high-temperature flow sensor based on hot-wire anemometry. High-attenuation fibers (HAFs) were used as the heating elements. High-temperature-stable regenerated fiber Bragg gratings were inscribed in HAFs and in standard telecom fibers as temperature sensors. Using in-fiber light as both the heating power source and the interrogation light source, regenerativ...
