Device for measuring immersion factor of diffusor for underwater cosine light collector
The invention belongs to the pick-up unit of marine optics surveying instrument.
Cosine light collector is a vitals of irradiance sensor.The cosine light collector of underwater irradiance sensor comprises waterproof glass and diffusion disk.Waterproof glass can bear the pressure that maximum sounds the depth of the water; Diffusion disk is attached to the outside of waterproof glass, directly contacts with water.The effect of cosine light collector is to make optical sensor meet the cosine rule to greatest extent to the response of different angle incident radiation.When measuring in the air, the inside and outside medium of cosine light collector is air.When measuring in the water, the cosine light collector external agency is a water, and interior media is an air.The refractive index of air approaches 1, and the refractive index of water is about 1.33, differs more than 30% with air.Therefore, cosine light collector diffusion transmissivity in water is called the submergence effect with aerial different, and its correction factor is called immersion factor.The submergence effect is mainly from diffusion disk.When practical application, the calibration of all irradiance sensors and calibration are all carried out in air, the irradiance sensor that in water body, uses, and in air after the calibration calibration, the in addition correction of immersion factor, the rational result that just can obtain in water, measuring.Tyler and Smith have described a kind of device (Tyler J.E., Smith R.C., 1970, Measurement of Spectral Irradiance Underwater, Gordon ﹠amp that measures underwater irradiance cosine light collector immersion factor; Breach SciencePublichers, New York, 103pp.).Used measurement mechanism is that the irradiance sensor that cosine light collector is installed is immersed in the casing that is marked with clear water, measure with a branch of parallel beam irradiation cosine light collector surface, then, the distance of change from the optical collector surface to the water surface, to draw the response when the water layer above the cosine light collector goes to zero, place it airborne response to compare with this irradiance sensor, its variation is thought because water logging there is not the surface of cosine light collector to cause, thereby is calculated the immersion factor of irradiance sensor.After this, Britain Macam company, Mueller and Austin continue to use the device of Tyler and Smith description basically, but improved the collimation of incident beam, and the switch that anhydrates has been installed in the bottom of water tank, the convenient water yield that reduces in the water tank, to change the distance (Mickleton of cosine light collector upper surface to the water surface, CoDurham, UK, 1995, Report on Immersion effect Calibration of NewcastleUniversity Macam Spectro-Radiometer, Macam spectroradiometer technical information; MuellerJ.L., Roswell W.A., 1995, Ocean Optics Protocols for SeaWiFS Validation, Revision 1, Nasa Technical Memorandum 104566, Vol.25, P24-25.).Above-mentioned several device all can only measuring vertical incident or at the immersion factor of vertical direction with certain subtended angle incident ray, and can only measure the group effect of cosine light collector, not the diffusion transmissivity of the used diffusion disk material of energy measurement in water.
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of measurement mechanism, can measure the diffusion transmissison characteristic of the used diffusion disk material of cosine light collector in water exactly, so that used diffusion disk performance is estimated and selected the light of different incident directions.Simultaneously also can measure underwater cosine light collector easily to the different incident direction light immersion factor of (comprising vertical incidence light).
