Laser Doppler Distance Sensor for Fast Shape Measurements at Rotating Objects
نویسندگان
چکیده
− For monitoring the shape of fast rotating objects such as turbo machine rotors, contactless and compact sensors with a high measurement rate as well as high precision are required. We present a novel laser Doppler distance sensor for shape measurements of rough technical surfaces. This novel sensor offers concurrently high distance resolution in the micron range and high temporal resolution in the microsecond range. Especially the distance measurement uncertainty is, in principle, independent of the lateral object velocity. In order to prove its operational capability shape measurements of fast rotating objects are demonstrated in comparison with conventional sensors.

Laser-Doppler-Distance-Sensor using phase evaluation for position, shape andvibration measurements
In this article we present a novel optical sensor allowing simultaneous measurements of axial position and tangential velocity of moving solid state objects. An extended laser Doppler velocimeter setup is used where two interference fringe systems are superposed slightly tilted. The axial position of moving solid state surfaces is determined via a phase evaluation. The phase laser Doppler dista...
متن کاملFrom the Doppler Effect to Ultrafast Distance Metrology
The fast inspection of technical processes gains increasing importance. Time resolved distance and shape measurements of the dynamic deformation of high speed rotating objects are challenging. The measurement rate of conventional distance sensors is limited, since their uncertainty strongly increases with the surface velocity of the inspected object. In contrast, the recently developed laser Do...

Ultrasonic sensors are commonly used for a wide variety of non-contact presence, proximity or distance measuring applications in industry, especially the automotive branch. This paper shows how the radiation properties of bending-type ultrasonic transducers with rotational symmetry depend on shape, dimensions and material parameters. In order to determine their dependencies, the behaviour of su...

متن کاملTip sensor probe for changing refractive index measurement in small volumes
In this paper, a tapered tip optical fiber probe sensor for localized refractive index (RI) measurements is presented. This sensor’s interaction with analytes is confined to a few micro-meters which makes it a promising candidate for in-vivo or even intra-cellular RI monitoring. This tapered tip was simply fabricated by etching optical fiber with hydrofluoric acid to a conic shape with a sub-m...
