Center Innovation Fund: AFRC CIF
Temperature Fiber Optic Sensing System (TEMP)
Project Description
We're going to bake the fiber to take out all the moisture, then vacuum all the air out, fill it with a different gas (Helium) and seal the endings. This will guarantee that our measurements are highly accurate and unaffected by humidity. We will perform several environmental tests such as local humidity chamber, actual humid environments, 24 hours water submerging, 24 hours liquid nitrogen submerging, etc.
