    摘要: Apparatus (FIG. 1) for non-dispersive optical determination of the concentration of an identifiable gas, such as a hydrocarbon, in a mixture such as atmospheric air comprises a sample chamber 13 to contain a sample of the mixture, a source 21 of IR radiation at a wavelength absorbed by the gas beamed through the sample chamber to a detector 22 and transducer means to change the gas pressure within the chamber to determine the change in radiation intensity detected at different pressures. One wall of the sample chamber is formed by a flexible diaphragm 25 driven by a voice-coil type transducer 26 whereby the pressure is switched repetitively between the values above and below atmospheric. Atmospheric gas is admitted to the chamber by a porous plug 24 which restricts flow to a low level permitting a pressure change in the chamber. Absorption by the gas relates the intensity of source radiation I.sub.S and measured radiation I.sub.M by I.sub.M oc I.sub.S .multidot.e.sup.-.alpha. o.sup..multidot.g.multidot.p.multidot.x where x is the radiation path length through the sample, .alpha..sub.o is a constant, p the total pressure of the gas mixture and g the concentration of the hydrocarbon gas. By measuring intensity at different pressure involving a change .DELTA.p and a fractional change in intensity of measured radiation .DELTA.I/I, the gas concentration g is determined by applying the relationship:- g=-.DELTA.I/(I.multidot..DELTA.p.multidot..alpha..sub.o .multidot.x).

    摘要: A correlation spectrometer permanently incorporates a reference cell (12) and an electro-optical phase modulator (EOPM) (50) in the light path between a sample cell (30) and a detector (20). The effect of the EOPM is such that its frequency modulates all of the monochromatic component of the incoherent radiation passing through it. The EOPM is adjusted so that when it is ON all of the energy in the monochromatic components is thrown into sidebands (55) differing from the original frequencies by integral multiples of the modulation frequency, with the total amount of energy absorbed from the original radiation remaining constant. When there is no coincidence between the constituents in the two cells, the detector's output is the same when the EOPM is ON and when it is OFF. However, when there is coincidence the detector's output changes when the EOPM is switched between its two states. The change in the detector's output is related to the quantity of the constituents in the sample cell.

    摘要: A rotating gas cell structure, intended for use in nondispersive electro-optical measurement equipment, includes at least a pair of chambers that, by virtue of rotation of the structure, are alternately inserted into a beam of radiant energy. The chambers contain a quantity of gas of the species to be analyzed at different pressure values. When used in a nondispersive radiant energy gas analyzer, the rotating cell will modulate the radiant energy in a way that permits a sensitive and accurate evaluation of a particular gas in a sample region. If desired the cell structure can include a built-in chopper to improve gas detection performance. In an alternate embodiment one of the chambers can be replaced by a radiant energy attenuator. Gas filling and sealing means for the cell chambers are disclosed.

    摘要: Infrared gas analyzers for measuring the presence of specific gas molecules in an unknown gas sample. The gas sample is illuminated by a source of infrared radiation and the radiation passing therethrough is directed to a single radiation detector. A unique absorption filter, generally comprised of a plurality of transparent chambers mounted and rotatable about an axis, is disposed so that the chambers may be caused to sequentially pass through the optical path of the infrared radiation. The plurality of chambers are adapted so as to alternately filter out the characteristic absorption bands of the specific gas molecules being tested for, and to alternately pass radiation of the same energy content which will not be substantially absorbed by the gas being tested for. By comparing the magnitude of the sequential signals derived from the detector, an accurate measure of the specific gas molecules in the unknown sample may be determined. Various embodiments of the invention are disclosed.

    摘要: A flow responsive detector for use in an infrared gas analyzer includes a pair of gas chambers, at least one of which is adapted to be irradiated by a pulsed beam of infrared energy to produce alternate heating and cooling, and concomitant expansion and contraction, of the gas therein when that gas contains a radiation absorbing component. A sensor responsive to gas flow in the form of a thermistor that has a negative temperature coefficient of resistance and a rate of change of resistance that varies inversely with temperature is mounted in a flow chamber, which is connected by a separate passage with each gas chamber. Where these passages enter the flow chamber, they are provided with jet orifices for directing a high velocity stream or jet flow of gas on the sensor in response to the expansion and contraction of gas in at least one of the gas chambers, thereby greatly enhancing the favorable nonlinear response characteristics of the sensor.

    摘要: Provided are systems and methods to filter infrared spectrum radiation that can be integrated with a compact optical system for an infrared imaging system. The optical system includes an objective lens element configured to receive and transmit infrared (IR) radiation from a scene, where the IR radiation from the scene includes a particular range of wavelengths corresponding to an absorption spectrum or a transmission spectrum of a gas. The optical system also includes a spectral lens element configured to receive the IR radiation transmitted through the objective lens element, where the spectral lens element comprises a first interference filter disposed on a first surface of the spectral lens element. The interference filter is configured to filter the IR radiation transmitted through the objective lens element to a narrower wavelength band that includes the particular range of wavelengths.
