Low-Limit Warning of Mine Gas by 2f -Detection Based on Tunable Fiber Laser

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mine gas composition is complex, and its main component is methane (CH4), followed by carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N2), also contains a small amount or trace amount of heavy hydrocarbon gases (ethane, propane, butane, pentane, etc.) , Hydrogen (H2), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2), hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and so on. For gas detection, the gas compositions above with listed behind CH4 becomes its interference noise. A second harmonic modulation of the fiber laser was used to achieve low concentration of coal mine gas monitoring against a multi-component-gas background noise, and an early warning can be accomplished.
