MEASUREMENT TECHNOLOGIES

fiber optics

We are developing many innovative products and technologies utilizing temperature and strain-sensing capabilities of optical fibers. Decoupling the in-twined response to strain and temperature is crucial in fully utilizing optical measurement, especially for turbulent and high temperature applications such as nuclear energy production and simulation. We are developing fuel rod analogs (heater rods) that measure and communicate critical data to the system and its operators regarding critical heat flux, ensuring safe system operations.

​On-Line Real Time Feedback

​In the emerging age of liquid metal and molten salt reactors, the ability for an energy system to react swiftly to changes in temperature, flow, and pressure are as critical as ever.

​Our company provides services in the engineering and production of many types of simulation heaters for nuclear energy simulation. We provide the traditional heater in many lengths and power profiles, and we are integrating fiber optics and other technology to create a new generation of measurement and heating instrumentation.  Additionally, rods for ATF simulations are in development to help the emerging technology of safe, low-carbon nuclear power generation.
