Over the last decade, the use of chirped fibre Bragg gratings (CFBGs) in detonation velocity experiments has been steadily increasing. In this paper, we show how CFBG design parameters-chirp-rate, reflectivity and apodisation-affect linearity in detonation velocity tests. It is found that the optimal CFBG detonation velocity probe should have a high chirp-rate, a low reflectivity and no apodisation. As a further demonstration of these findings, we measure detonation velocity with a 24 cm optimised CFBG; the longest CFBG test of this kind so far.
在过去十年中,啁啾光纤布拉格光栅(CFBGs)在爆速实验中的应用一直在稳步增加。在本文中,我们展示了CFBG的设计参数——啁啾率、反射率和切趾——如何影响爆速测试中的线性度。研究发现,最佳的CFBG爆速探头应具有高啁啾率、低反射率且无切趾。作为这些发现的进一步证明,我们使用一个24厘米的优化CFBG测量了爆速;这是迄今为止此类最长的CFBG测试。
