TY - CONF A1 - Schreier, Andy A1 - Liehr, Sascha A1 - Wosniok, Aleksander A1 - Krebber, Katerina T1 - Comparision of solution approaches for distributed humidity sensing in PFGI-POF N2 - We compare four different sensing solutions suitable for distributed fiber optic humidity sensing in per uorinated graded-index polymer optical fibers (PFGI-POFs). Compared to silica fbers, polymer optical fibers over advantageous beneffits including signifficantly higher break down strain, fracture toughness and humidity sensitivity. Various humidity-related effects in PFGI-POFs have been reported in the last years including measured attenuation and length changes as well as Brillouin frequency and Bragg wavelength shifts. The four aforementioned methods could serve as a basis for distributed and quasi-distributed humidity sensing and are described here closely with an emphasis on plausible cross effects to temperature and strain. The main focus of this paper lies on the comparison of four approaches with regard to method complexity, sensitivity to humidity, spatial resolution, real-time capability and effort to compensate for cross effects.

We show that polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) optical fi-bers can be employed as a sensor medium to conduct distributed humidity measurement by analyzing Rayleigh backscattering traces obtained by OTDR. We make use of the effect that water penetrates the fiber core and directly influences the local fiber attenuation and Rayleigh backscatter coefficient. We conducted distributed backscattering analysis for two different pulse wavelengths: 500 nm and 650 nm. The 650 nm results are susceptible to both, attenuation changes and backscatter changes, whereas backscatter results at 500 nm are not affected by humidity-induced attenuation and only exhibit a change of Rayleigh backscattered power as a function of humidity. The combined measurement and analysis of both parameters at these two wavelengths has the advantage that cross-sensitivities on backscatter change and attenuation, such as strain and tempera-ture changes, could be separated from the humidity response of the fiber. We present laboratory results for a humidity range between 30% and 90% for both pulse wavelengths: including step responses, humidity cycles and hysteresis analysis. In addition to the attenuation and backscatter coefficient dependence, we also analyze optical runtime changes as a function of humidity. POFs have the advantage that they can be directly embed-ded into materials such as concrete or soil to measure water content or localize water ingress. Standard step-index PMMA POFs can be used as a distributed relative humidity sensor up to 200 m distance.

Compared to conventionally produced cylindrical steel tanks, the fiber-reinforced solutions allow greater flexibility in the tank design. Despite a number of further material-related benefits of fiber-reinforced composites as non-conductive and non-magnetic behavior as well as corrosion resistance and high strength, the optimization of their thermal degradation properties during combustion is still a challenge. To improve the fire performance of lightweight composite containers, special intumescent fire protection coatings can be applied onto the outside tank surface. This paper presents fire tests on glass-fiber-reinforced plastic transport tanks with complex geometries sheltered with different surface-applied fire protection systems. To evaluate the fire resistance of the tank structures, a fiber optic monitoring system was developed. This system is based on distributed temperature measurements using high-Resolution optical backscatter reflectometry and pointwise reference measurements using fiber Bragg gratings. Thereby, all the fiber optic sensors were directly integrated in the composite layer structure of the tanks. The focus of the presented work is on the demonstration of capability of fiber optic monitoring system in such high-temperature application. Moreover, the fiber optic measurements provide new insights into the efficiency of intumescent coating applied for fire protection of fiber-reinforced plastic transport tanks.

Modern FOS techniques allow truly temporally- and spatially-continuous monitoring over extended distances; a feature not attainable with any other sensing technology. Moreover, depending on their particular material composition and design, optical fibres can be made resistant to high temperatures, chemicals and ionizing radiation. Due to this unique combination of advantageous properties, ever since their emergence, FOS have been attracting considerable attention for monitoring tasks in harsh, hazardous and difficult-to-access locations. The potential of FOS has been recognized also in the field of radioactive waste management and fibreoptic sensors belong to the most promising technologies for nuclear waste repositories (NWR) monitoring. Vast majority of distributed fibreoptic sensor applications rely on use of silica-based optical fibres as sensing elements. At the same time, distributed measurement of local temperature and strain along the fibre are the most common monitoring tasks addressed by fibreoptic sensors. Nevertheless, FOS offer much larger flexibility both in terms of utilized sensing fibre as well as targeted measurand. In this contribution, we will review some of more alternative implementations of FOS that are being explored at “Fibre Optic Sensors” division of Federal Institute for Material Research and Testing (BAM), in Berlin. The main focus will be twofold. On one side, we will address FOS applications with polymer optical fibres (POF), that may enable monitoring of large strains (>100%) and high-sensitivity radiation detection. On the other side, we will present our activities in the area of distributed acoustic sensing (DAS); one of the most recent developments in the fibreoptic sensing field enabling highly-dynamic vibration sensing with nanostrain sensitivity. We will introduce the principles of the addressed FOS technologies, present application examples from our case studies, discuss advantages and limitations of the techniques and highlight their potential for NWR monitoring.

During this project, a novel salt concrete exhibiting neither significant cracking nor shrinkage will be optimized for use in the sealing systems. The composition of this material will be based on alkali-activated materials, which are characterized by particularly small thermal deformations during the hardening reaction. Quality assurance and continuous monitoring systems developed during this project will be demonstrated not only for high reliability, but also for resistance to highly alkaline environments and to water intrusion along cables or at sensor locations. A variety of sensors will be used in combination with wireless Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to record moisture, temperature, and, if necessary, corrosion activity within the sealing system. Distributed Fibre Optic Sensor (FOS) technology will also be used for strain, temperature, and moisture content measurement. Ultrasound-based measuring methods will be utilized for the detection of cracks and delaminations. Additionally, digital image correlation and acoustic emission analysis will be used for deformation measurements and crack detection. A novel borehole probe and advanced ultrasound imaging techniques will be further developed to track cracks and delaminations within the host rock in 3D. The surface-based Large Aperture Ultrasound System (LAUS) will also be utilized to detect cracks and delaminations deep below the exterior surface of the sealing system. Although the focus of this project will be on the host rock salt, the resulting technologies will be intentionally developed in a way that facilitates their adaptation to other host rocks.

Our technique enables us to determine phase changes or low-frequency variations of the C-OTDR signal stemming from temperature variations. The distinct feature of the used sensing fiber is its structuring with equidistant strongly scattering dots. Consecutive pairs of these scatterers form the dominant local interferometers, effectively overwriting the otherwise highly nonlinear transfer function of common optical fiber. This enables a quasi-phase-resolved evaluation of perturbation responses originating from temperature changes at sensor positions between the scatterers. Using our method, we show the measurement of a nonlinear temperature transient from a heating process with a maximum temperature gradient of 0.8 °C over 20 s and a total temperature increase of 28.4 °C. This method requires almost no post-processing and can be used for simultaneous distributed vibration sensing (DVS) and quantification of local temperature gradients in a single fiber, e.g., for the use in condition monitoring of infrastructure or industrial installations.

The incorporation of glass or polymer optical fibers (GOFs or POFs) in geotextiles and geogrids allows early detection of mechanical deformations, temperature and humidity. This paper presents selected examples of smart geosynthetics based on Brillouin and Rayleigh scattering effects in incorporated fiber optic sensors for monitoring of large geotechnical structures like dikes, dams, railways, embankments or slopes. The focus of the presented work is on real field tests of measurement capability with respect to the chosen measurement principle and used fiber type.

In the face of increasing traffic density and severe traffic loading, the results of the load tests on the Amsterdam bridge 705 make an important contribution to the understanding of its structural behavior. The concept of the static loading was based on the use of two 36-ton trucks stopped on the bridge at multiple pre-determined locations. The load applied in this way led to location-dependent small deflection effects recorded as longitudinal strain of the sensing fiber embedded at the underside of the bridge. The measurements were performed with a commercially-available solution based on Tunable Wavelength Coherent Optical Time Domain Reflectometry with the measurement accuracy in the range of 0.5 µm/m.
