Raman distributed temperature sensing in underground geoexchange system
Résumé
Underground heat exchangers are instrumented by eight multimode optical fiber cables connected to a distributed temperature sensing (DTS) Raman system which provides real time temperature monitoring, versus operational conditions of the installation. A user-friendly Labview® software has been developed, allowing the configuration of the full installation, the signal processing of raw DTS data and storage, as well as the visualization of any temperature profile, on request. Preliminary temperature profiles are very promising. This platform will allow R&D about geothermal exchanges, will provide a full scale bench to characterize new equipments, and will encourage professionals to develop this renewable energy sector.
