Vibration Sensors

The sensors presented in this chapter are fiber optic intensity modulated vibrations sensors which are non-contact (extrinsic sensor) to the vibrating object. Three sensors presented make use of non-contact vibration measurement method with plastic fiber using distinct designs, improvement of the sensor response and advantages of one sensor over the other for diverse applications. First discussed about dual plastic optical fiber vibration sensor design and its response. Secondly, discussed about 1x2 fused coupler plastic optical fiber vibration sensor design with advantages over the first one. Finally, discussed about the 2x2 fused coupler plastic optical fiber vibration sensor design along with advantages than other two methods. At the end reported the final results with comparison.

Fiber System

This paper proposes a new type of torsional vibration sensor based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG). The sensor has two mass ball optical fiber systems. The optical fiber is directly treated as an elastomer and a mass ball is fixed in the middle of the fiber in each mass ball fiber system, which is advantageously small, lightweight, and has anti-electromagnetic interference properties. The torsional vibration signal can be calculated by the four FBGs’ wavelength shifts, which are caused by mass balls. The difference in the two sets of mass ball optical fiber systems achieves anti-horizontal vibration and anti-temperature interference. The principle and model of the sensor, as well as numerical analysis and structural parameter design, are introduced. The experimental conclusions show that the minimum torsional natural frequency of the sensor is 27.35 Hz and the torsional vibration measurement sensitivity is 0.3603 pm/(rad/s2).
