    摘要: Temperature sensing probes for sensing the temperature of a substrate based on fluorescence are disclosed. The temperature sensing probes include a fiber optic cable having at a cold end an optical interface and at a hot end a temperature sensing element for contacting a substrate. A sheath surrounds at least a portion of the hot end of the fiber optic cable. A retaining member securely and removably engages the sheath with a support member. The sheath forms a vacuum seal around the contact between the temperature sensing element and the substrate.

    摘要: The present disclosure includes a method of testing for gas and temperature distribution in a goaf, wherein the test device comprises a cable coupled to a cable dragging machine, the cable including a test end configured to be buried in the goaf; a gas temperature tester configured to test a gas for composition and temperature; and a gas pump configured to continuously pump gas from the test end and transmit it to the gas temperature tester. In some examples, the method comprises placing the test end of the cable in the goaf. According to some examples, the method comprises starting the cable dragging machine and starting the gas pump simultaneously with starting the cable dragging machine. The method may comprise withdrawing the cable, via the cable dragging machine, at a constant speed and analyzing, via the gas temperature tester, the composition and temperature of the gas.

    摘要: A sewer pipe inflow and infiltration diagnosis method based on a distributed fiber-optic temperature measurement system is provided. The inflow and infiltration diagnosis method includes the following steps: S1: transmitting, by an optical time-domain reflectometer, an original optical signal to a temperature sensing fiber-optic cable provided in a sewer pipe; S2: feeding back, by the temperature sensing fiber-optic cable, a modulated optical signal to the optical time-domain reflectometer due to a temperature effect; S3: subjecting the modulated optical signal to photoelectric conversion, so as to acquire binary information; S4: converting the binary information into decimal information; S5: drawing a spatiotemporal map of a water temperature; and S6: eliminating a background noise value, identifying an abnormal water temperature point, determining an inflow and infiltration point of the sewer pipe, and determining an abnormal inflow and infiltration point of the sewer pipe.
