一种用于电力变压器局部放电在线监测的光纤传感器

描述了一种光纤声波传感器系统，这种传感器用于大型电力变压器中局部放电产生声波信号的在线监测。传感器采用融硅的共振腔和在融硅的玻璃管中形成囊状的单膜光纤来形成F—B干涉仪。干涉仪采用低相干性的光采进行干涉。实验结果表明研制的这种光纤声波传感器测量变压器油中传播的声波信号具有比较高的灵敏度和较宽的带宽。     

Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene graft fistula for chronic hemodialysis

In a retrospective study of 66 PTFE arteriovenous fistulae and 71 BCH arteriovenous fistulae for dialysis access, PTFE had a higher patency rate than BCH at 12 months (62.4 versus 32.5%). PTFE was easier to work with and easier to handle in the face of infection. The lateral upper arm approach to placement of the PTFE graft is desirable in patients who have had multiple previous access procedures because this area is usually free from scarring, is distant from neurovascular structures, and provides a greater length of graft for needle punctures.
