Descripción
An integral composite aircraft cabin had been instrumented with two different technologies: distributed fiber optic sensors (DFOSs) and Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs). This structural test aims at strain field monitoring in any part of structure when cabin pressurization is applied in order to simulate flight conditions. The Distributed fiber optic network used is based on Rayleigh scatter ing using an Optical Backscatter Reflectometer (OBR). The OBR provides a large number of strain sensor s with high spatial and strain accuracy with a plain optical fiber. DFOSs prove to be the most suitable technology for this test due to their capability to cover large areas with an important amount of strain data. Moreover, the technology of Fiber Bragg Grating sensors has been also applied for the monitoring of the cabin structural integrity. This type of sensors enable a continuous monitoring during the pressurization tests. 24 FBG sensors in four fiber optic circuits were installed on cabin surface . This test allows to correlate distributed and discrete fiber optic sensors and evaluate their damage detection capabilities. Several static pressure tests were conducted in order to detec t structural damage and static loads at the cabin structure.
