Publication Open Access Aluminum coated fiber optic sensor for enhancing flow rate measurement(SPIE, 2023) Rodríguez Rodríguez, Armando; Urroz Unzueta, José Carlos; Diéguez Elizondo, Pedro; Bravo Acha, Mikel; López-Amo Sáinz, Manuel; López Rodríguez, José Javier; Ingeniería; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio IngeniaritzarenA water flow and velocity aluminum-coated Fiber Bragg Grating sensor system for open channels was designed, simulated and tested. The sensing head was designed, ruggedized and customized to measure velocities at different depths, in order to calculate the discharge in open channels. This paper shows, for the first time to our knowledge, the simulation of such kind of fiber sensors in open channels.Publication Open Access Power over fiber system for heterogeneous sensors multiplexing(IEEE, 2024-06-12) Rodríguez Rodríguez, Armando; Vanegas Tenezaca, Evelyn Dayanara; Vento Álvarez, José Raúl; López-Amo Sáinz, Manuel; Bravo Acha, Mikel; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Uniertsitate PublikoaThis paper presents a Power-over-Fiber based remote electronic and optical fiber sensors multiplexing scheme. The system architecture consists of a 50-km linear cavity Raman-fiber laser that is used for interrogation of FBG optical fiber sensors. Simultaneously, electronic sensors information is modulated in amplitude while the optical sensors' data are encoded in the spectral information. In order to bias the electronic sensors, the residual power of the Raman pump laser is collected in an energy harvesting unit. This electric power is used for biasing an ATTiny85 control unit and two electro-optical modulators. A proof-of-concept is presented where a couple of optical fiber-Bragg-gratings sensors collect strain information that is self-compensated in temperature according to the digital data achieved from the electronic sensors. A 9.6 kbit/s data rate was achieved using Mach-Zehnder amplitude modulators and a maximum 35 ksample/s was retrieved using a high-speed C-band spectrometer and performing spectral analysis via a software developed in Python. AuthorsPublication Open Access Design of optical fiber Bragg grating-based sensors for flow measurement in pipes(Taylor & Francis, 2023) Diéguez Elizondo, Pedro; Rodríguez Rodríguez, Armando; Urroz Unzueta, José Carlos; López Rodríguez, José Javier; López-Amo Sáinz, Manuel; Ingeniería; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio IngeniaritzarenIn this work, optical Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors were used to measure water flow in pipes. Several types of coatings were incorporated into the design of the sensors to examine their effects on the elastic strain that the fiber underwent as a result of the water flow. ANSYS-CFX V2020 R2 software was used to model the elastic strain encountered by the fiber under various flow rates in order to assess the performance of the FBG sensors. The calculations and experimental data exhibited good convergence, demonstrating the accuracy of the FBG sensors in determining water flow. These calculations and procedures can be extrapolated to any other fluid.
