To determine the group-delay dispersion up to the fourth order, least-squares fitting was applied to the overall time waveform mapped on the time axis for the fingerprint-spectral broadband pulses through a long optical fiber. The analysis of all 4003 data points reduced statistical uncertainty, and provided second-, third-, and fourth-order dispersion with uncertainties of 0.02%, 0.4%, and 4%,respectively.展开更多

A simple servo controlled scanning fiber-optic confocal microscope is proposed for determining the refractive index profile of an optical fiber. To measure the chromatic dispersion of a short length fiber a Mach-Zehnder fiber interferometer with a novel interferometric distance meter is introduced. At the end, a tomographic method is demonstrated for determining the 2-D stress profile of a fiber.展开更多

The upstream elbow and coal pipe splitter were installed in two perpendicular planes. Contours of dis- tributions of the particle concentration and size were obtained in different transverse sections. The experimental data show that the maximum/minimum concentration ratio in transverse sections A, B, and C decreased rapidly as the length of the vertical pipe increased. The left/right-leg average concentration ratio remained about 1, and a balanced split was thus achieved. With a perpendicularly arranged upstream elbow, the vertical pipe length had little effect on the splitter performance, which is beneficial for engineering design and convenient for industrial application.展开更多
