Accelerated Cooling of Optical Fiber
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 February 2011
Abstract
A novel apparatus for accelerated cooling of optical fiber has been used at different fiber speeds using Nitrogen and Helium as the cooling gases. The gas flow was counter to the direction of the fiber motion inside a small diameter tube. The experimental results show significant improvement over natural cooling, as well as over available transverse cooling.
