Steife Faser-Bragg-Gitter-Sensoren und bewegliche Faser-Mikrodistometer (extrinsische Fabry-Pérot-Interferometer-Sensoren) bieten der Baustoff-Forschung und der baubegleitenden Qualitätssicherung einzigartige Möglichkeiten, Mikroverformungen in der Zementsteinmatrix nahezu rückwirkungsfrei bereits zum Beginn der Erstarrung und ebenso nach der Erhärtung zu messen. Zuverlässige Meßaussagen im Zementsteingefüge erfordern jedoch eine gezielte Dimensionierung sowie ausreichende Haftung in der Matrix. Die Arbeit beschreibt die physikalischen Grundlagen der Sensoren und definiert Dimensionierungskriterien. Der Einfluss der betonchemischen Beanspruchung auf Festigkeit und Langzeitstabilität der eingebetteten Sensorfasern (Glas, Coating) wird untersucht.
This paper describes the outcome of two groups which are involved in the specification of guidelines for fibre optic sensors performance and testing. The "Guideline for use of fibre optic sensors" from the COST-299 guideline group, and the "Optical Strain Sensor based on Fibre Bragg Grating" from the GESA guideline group of the VDI - "The Association of German Engineers". Through appropriate specifications and definitions, both guidelines aim at enabling better understanding of fibre optic sensors characteristics and performances. A concise view into the structure of the guidelines is presented, emphasizing important aspects. The English version of the two guidelines will be available in autumn 2009.
Sensitive partial discharge (PD) measurements on HV/EHV cable systems are usually based on electrical or electromagnetic PD detection. Unfortunately, interferences may significantly reduce sensitivity, especially in on-site after-installation testing and, even more, in on-line PD monitoring. This paper deals with optical PD detection, which is absolutely immune to any kind of electromagnetic interference. Optical PD detection necessarily requires transparent or translucent insulation systems to be applicable. Stress cone elements for HV/EHV cable accessories meet the requirements for optical PD detection, if made from transparent silicone elastomers.
Monitoring of corrosion protection in reinforced concrete structures using an integrated pH optode
(2011)
Corrosion in steel-reinforced concrete structures is a critical issue. Corrosion appears if the pH value of the concrete matrix decreases due to deterioration of the Calcium hydroxide layer on the Steel surface. The safest Information about potential danger of Steel corrosion is the knowledge of the pH value of concrete. The paper presents a Tiber optic pH sensor for long-term monitoring of the pH value of reinforced concrete structures at risk from corrosion. The sensor probe is small (about 8 mm in diameter), can be embedded into the concrete matrix and observe changes in pH over years. Several sensor probes can be staggered to detect the progression of pH decrease. The pH values can be resolved with 0.1 to 0.2 pH value in the ränge between 12.0 and 9.5. The structure of the pH measurement System, longterm test results and the design to achieve stable probes will be explained. Experienee from test applications of pH sensors embedded in grouted anchors and in concrete components for a cooling tower will be presented.
