Enhanced temperature sensitivity of fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor using thermal expansion of copper tube

Abstract: The temperature sensitivity of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) temperature sensor is enhanced when using a copper tube to jacket of the FBG.Both sides of the FBG are glued with epoxy to cylindrical ferrules tubes that in turn is inserted and glued to a cylindrical copper tube. As the high thermal expansion coefficient of the cylindrical copper tube pulls both sides of the FBG, the temperature sensitivity is improved 3.3‐fold when compared to that of a bare FBG. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…The thermal conductivity of NiTi used as for the DCM body will help to minimize the temperature gradient along the sensor nodes. The structure and thermal sensitivity of both shape sensors used were similar to those in [25] and [26]. Moreover, there will be an opposite effect on wavelength shift at each of the sensors.…”

“…From Eq. ( 9), the temperature gradient along the normal direction of the thermal surface can be obtained: (11) Therefore, the temperature gradient of the air on the thermal surface is: (12) As shown in Fig. 5(a), when using an FBG to detect the surface temperature, there is a distance t between the sensing point in the sensor and the surface to be measured.…”

“…Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing technology has gained widespread application in temperature monitoring owing to its numerous advantages, including compact size, light weight, high precision, resistance to electromagnetic interference (EMI), and multiplexing capabilities. Depending on packaging forms, FBG-based temperature sensors can be broadly categorized into bare FBG sensor, tube-packaged FBG sensors [6][7][8], substrate-packaged FBG sensors [9], polymer-packaged FBG sensors [10], metal-coated FBG sensors [11][12][13][14], and sensitization structure-packaged FBG sensors [15]. Nonetheless, the primary objective of these packaging structures has been to enhance the temperature sensitivity of FBGs, rather than focusing on temperature measurement accuracy.…”

“…The fiber Bragg grating temperature measurement technology has become more mature, but the research in this field is mainly concentrated on the extremely high or low temperature measurement and the temperature sensitive enhancing technology. Currently, fiber Bragg grating temperature sensors can be divided into 5 parts by the form of packaging: tube-type fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor [83,84], substrate-type fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor [85,86], polymer packaged fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor [87], metalcoated fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor [88][89][90][91][92][93], and sensitization-type fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor [94]. In order to easily install the temperature sensor and not destroy the internal structure of the machine tools, the temperature of the surface of the machine tools is usually tested and used as the basic data for the thermal error compensation.…”
