Fire event inside tunnels is a severe problem arises due to various reasons but once occur, can block the way for traffic and even major accidents can happen. The goods and vehicles can be burned, flames and toxic smoke may trap persons inside tunnel even resulting in damage to life.
In order to take preventive action, it is important for concerned persons to know the position and fire event origin by temperature monitoring. Measurement of temperature i.e. Fire Detection inside tunnels is difficult to achieve with conventional sensors as numerous sensors would be needed which is costlier solution.
Our developed DTS (distributed temperature sensor) system enables precise location of fire event and also heat detection by laying fiber cables along few kilometers length of tunnel. The metallic sheath guards the fiber inside cable and
ensures non-stop measurement of temperature through passive fiber optics. It can be used in above or underground tunnels applications.
A fiber optic cable can be installed linearly along surface of tunnel and can provide thousands of measurement points at 1 meter resolution. This means every single meter reading will provide data of heat inside tunnels.
