US 2015/0092818 A1 · Apparatus and Method for Monitoring a Reactor Surface

Abstract

Apparatus for monitoring a reactor surface with a sensor cable, which is during operation at least partially arranged in the region of the reactor surface, has at least two optical fibers (1, 2) arranged in the sensor cable, has at least one laser light source whose light is coupled at least partially into the optical fibers (1, 2) during the operation of the apparatus, and evaluation means, in which portions of the light coupled out of the optical fibers (1, 2) are evaluated during the operation of the apparatus, for monitoring at least partially the reactor surface with respect to at least one physical size in a spatially resolved manner. The apparatus includes magnetic retaining means (8) for attaching the sensor cable (10) on the reactor surface.

Dependent claims

An apparatus for monitoring a reactor surface, comprising at least one sensor cable (10) which is arranged at least in sections in the region of the reactor surface during operation of the apparatus;

at least one optical fiber (1, 2) in which at least one sensor cable (10) is arranged;
at least one laser light source, whose light is at least partially coupled into the at least one optical fiber (1, 2) during operation of the apparatus;
evaluator in which portions of the light coupled out of the at least one optical fiber (1, 2) are evaluated during operation of the apparatus for monitoring at least parts of the reactor surface with respect to at least one physical variable in a spatially resolved manner;
wherein the apparatus comprises magnetic retaining means (8) for attaching the at least one sensor cable (10) on the reactor surface.
