초록

원전 2차계통수의 pH를 예측을 위해서는 샘플을 채취, 냉각시킨 후 pH를 측정하게 되는데 이 때 샘플의 온도는 pH를 변화시키는 중요한 요인이 된다. 본 연구에서는 할로겐화 은 광섬유를 이용하여 비접촉식 온도센서를 개발하였고, 열전쌍열을 이용하여 열원으로부터 방출되는 적외선을 측정하였다. 열원과 광섬유 끝단 사이의 거리 및 각도 변화에 따른 광섬유 온도센서의 출력신호를 분석하였으며, 광섬유 온도센서로 측정한 온도범위는 $25{\sim}60^{\circ}C$이다. 본 연구결과를 기초로 원전 2차계통수 pH 샘플의 온도를 측정하기 위해 할로겐화 은 광섬유를 이용한 비접촉식 온도센서의 개발이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Generally, a pH value of secondary water in a nuclear power plant should be estimated after sampling and cooling down. In this process, the measurement of temperature is very important because a pH value is varied according to the temperature of secondary water. In this study, a noncontact fiber-optic temperature sensor using a silver halide optical fiber is fabricated to measure the temperature of cooled secondary water. And we have measured an infrared radiation, which is transferred by a silver halide optical fiber from a heat source, using a thermopile sensor. The relationships between the temperature of a heat source and the output voltage of the fiber-optic temperature sensor according to the change of distance and angle are determined. The measurable temperature range of the fiber-optic temperature sensor is from 25 to $60^{\circ}C$. Based on the results of this study, a noncontact temperature sensor using a silver halide optical fiber can be developed for the temperature measurement of the pH sample in the secondary water system.
