Abstract

An apparatus for determining the concentration of a gaseous component is provided with which a sufficiently large optical values are detected without the need of using a laser having a high emission intensity or a large light collector, and the determination of the concentration of a target component within a desired section is rendered possible. The apparatus comprises: a laser (3) which emits a first laser light having such a wavelength that the target component absorbs the light and a second laser light having such a wavelength that the target component does not absorb the light; first and second scattering objects (5) and (7) located in the range irradiated with the first laser light and the second laser light and disposed apart from each other in the direction of the emission of the first laser light and second laser light; a photodetector (9) which detects first and second scattered lights resulting from the scattering of the first laser light and second laser light by the first scattering object (5) and third and fourth scattered lights resulting from the scattering of the first laser light and second laser light by the second scattering object (7); and a concentration calculator (11) which calculates the concentration of the target component in the section ranging from the first scattering object (5) to the second scattering object (7), based on the values detected by the photodetector (9).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a gas component concentration measuring device for measuring the concentration of a target component in gas using a laser beam. Background technique [0002] The concentration of the specific target component contained in the gas can be measured by the following method. [0003] The gas emitted from the laser emitting device has an absorption wavelength λ unique to the target component 1 laser. Absorption wavelength λ is detected by a photodetector installed near the laser irradiation device 1 The laser beam is scattered light after being scattered by dust in the gas or the gas itself. In this case, a difference occurs in the timing of detection of scattered light by the photodetector depending on the distance between the laser emitting device and the scattering position of the laser beam. By converting this time characteristic into a distance characteristic, a detection signal of scattered light from a desired sect...
