Abstract:

Aiming at light source fluctuation noises,zero drift and other problems of H2S gas concentration sensor in optic-fiber evanescent field,double-light-path absorption detection system was designed to theoretically analyze the relationship between evanescent-field luminous power and gas concentration as well as detection sensitivity.Moreover,the relationship between evanescent-field power and optical-fiber residual diameter in the optic fiber corrosion process was also studied.The sensing probes with different evanescent-field power ratios were used for detection experiments of H2S gas concentration,so as to explore the influences of small-range temperature variations on gas concentration detection.The experimental results show that when the evanescent-field power ratio of sensing probe is 10%,the sensitivity is up to 4.4 W·L/mol,the detected minimum H2S gas concentration is 5.1×10-6,and the temperature of 273~333 K has little influences on H2S gas concentration detection.Due to low production cost,high sensitivity and high accuracy,the optic-fiber evanescent-field sensor can be applied in measurement of H2S gas during the hydrocarbon exploration and development process.

Key words: evanescent field, fiber optic sensor, spectral absorption, differential detection, hydrogen sulfide gas concentration

摘要:

针对光纤消逝场硫化氢(H2S)气体浓度传感器存在的光源波动噪声、灵敏度低等问题,设计了双光路光谱吸收式检测系统,分析了消逝场光功率与气体浓度、检测灵敏度之间的关系,研究了光纤腐蚀过程中消逝场功率与光纤剩余直径之间的关系;研制消逝场功率比不同的传感光纤进行H2S气体浓度检测实验,探讨了小范围温度变化对气体浓度检测的影响。实验结果表明:当传感光纤消逝场功率比为10%时,灵敏度高达4.4W·L/mol,最低检测H2S气体浓度可达5.1×10-6,且温度在273~333 K范围内变化时对H2S气体浓度检测的影响很小。光纤消逝场传感器制作成本低、灵敏度高、精度高,可用于油气勘探开发过程中H2S气体的检测。
