Development of Measurement Method for Temperature and Velocity Field with Optical Fiber Sensor
We have developed a new method for measuring temperature and velocity at a high spatial resolution (minimum 2.56 mm pitch along an optical fiber). The developed method uses the same principle as a hot wire anemometer, where the velocity perpendicular to an optical fiber is estimated as a function of...

Sumario: | We have developed a new method for measuring temperature and velocity at a high spatial resolution (minimum 2.56 mm pitch along an optical fiber). The developed method uses the same principle as a hot wire anemometer, where the velocity perpendicular to an optical fiber is estimated as a function of the cooling curve of a gold-coated layer on the optical fiber Joule-heated intermittently. The developed optical fiber sensor demonstrated the ability to acquire a transient velocity profile in airflow experiments with high repeatability and accuracy. This paper describes optical fiber-based velocity measurement in the velocity range of approximately 0–7 m/s with an error of approximately 10% compared to a hot wire anemometer and a new method for simultaneous temperature and velocity measurements. Applicability to velocity distribution measurements and seconds transient velocity changes are also described. |
