    1 INTRODUCTIONHE reliability of power transformers is more and more

    electricityi1'. The concept of conditionhased-repairing hasbeen proposed for years"], yet its pi-actice completely depend son the development' of on-line monitoring techno1ogy''l.Various on-line dissolved gas-in-oil monitors have hcendeveloped in the past twenty years and have long beenrecognized as the m ost effective for incipient fault diagnosis"].Widely used on-line monitors are mainly hydrogen mouitorsl5Ior total amount gas monitors. These kinds of monitors cannot take the place of conventional laboratorial gaschromatographic instruments as they can not monitor all thediagnostic gases and its measurement range and resolutiont6]is not comparable to the latter too. What a cundition-based-repairing needs is an on-line multi-gas m~uitor' '~, ith all thediagnostic gases measured in a precision that a labratory gaschromatographic instrument could provideis1.

    The key part of a gas monitor is its gas detector. On-linedetectors include chemical sensor^^^', theiiiial conductivitydetectors (TCD), and optical detectors. Although grcatendeavors have k e n made to solve the problems of electro-chemical sensorsiIoI and T CDs, m ulti-gas monitors using

    Justifiably, this paper set out to explore its basics and someinitial results are presented.

    11.. BASICSMajpr diagnostic gases have been identified as hydrogen(1-12), methane (CB), ethane (C&), acetylene (C2H2),

    ethylene ( C 2 B ) , carban monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide(CO,), and their wncentrations in oil may range from 1 ppmto 2000 ppm or even higher. The concentration rangcrequired to measure is shown in Table I and the followingwork is to realize an on-line quantitative analysis of thesegases using FTIR that can satisfy al l the requirements.

Where high-pressure nitrogen is used topurge all the parts of the dilution system, and a I ml syringeis used to inject pure sample into the 25 ml dilution cell, andthe sample is diluted fii-stly, then an appropriate syringe isuscd to convey certain amount of the diluted gas into the gas

    rcell of the FTIK spectrometer. The readout of the pressuregauge, the volume of he dilution cell, the amount of sampleinjected into the dilution cell and mixed into the gas cell, andthe volume of the gas cell can estimate the gas concentrationin the order'of magnitude, it is about 200ppm to 20ppm.

    gas cell using KBr windows (its volume is about 50-70 ml),DTGS detector. The average spectra of 32 times scanning ofeach diagnostic gas and water are shown in Fig. 2, theirresolution are al l l.Ocm.'.

    The corresponding signature absorption regions aresummarized and listed in Table 11. Data in Table I1 showsthat the signature regions covered is 610-4 000c m~'. In vicwof regions of H?Ond CO2at low frequency and the region ofCO i at high frequency may not be necessaiy and the region of

    C2Hi a t high frequency is very weak, the wavenumber rangecan be safely fixed in 720 m.'- 3400cm.'An on-line monitor I s supposed to be used under

    atmospheric environment, i.e., optical materials to be used aswindows and splitters should'be insoluble in water, otherwiseit will not be long term stable. In this point, spectra region isof primary importance in choosing optical materials. Inaddition, spectra region also decides the digital samplingfrequency of the upcoming FTIR spectrometer.B. Gas Cel/

    I ) GasCe/lMethod:When making quantitative analyses of gases with FTIR ina laboratory, a gas cell method"2' is usually used . 1R radiationis passed through a gas cell. The background spectrum isrecorded first when the cell is fulfilled with nitrogen (N2).Then the gas sample is sent into the cell. Some of the infraredradiation is absorbed by thc sample and some is passedthrough. In data processing course, the background spectrumis subtracted from the sample spectrum and the absorptionspectrum of the sample is thus given.2) Restriction9 to Gas Cell:In constructing a gas cell, its length and volume are theprimary parameters to m ake certain. Longer optical path has

    a smaller minimum detection limit, yet it lowers themaximum detection limit: when the light energy at a specificwavelength is completely absorbed passing through the gascell, any highcr concentration will have the same absorption,hence i t is impossible to measure any higher concentration.Furthermore, in on-line monitoring of power transformers,it's veiy difficult to separate a large amount of gases to bedetected by usual FTIR spectrometers. A current 2.4-meterlong optical path gas cell has a volume of 100 ml a t least, butwith the current vacuum separation method, only 5 m ldiagnostic gases can be separated a time, and a 10ml gas cellusing peimeablc membrane nccds 45 hours to reacheq~iiibrium'"~. bviously, what we need is a gas cell with alength as short as possible so that its volume is as small aspossible and its construction is as simple as possible todecrease' the costs and to applicably measure the smallamount of gases.3) Optinrzmi Optical Lengtlr:

    a) Theow:According to Absorbance Law, absorbency A isproportional to the concentration c of the sample, the optical

    path length 1 of the gas cell, and the absorptivity a of thesample:A =ncl ( 1 )

    According lo ( I ) , to the same kind of gas (a is the same), ifc l = const., then the absorbency is the sam e, i.e., to the samespectrometer, if its lowest measurable concentration to aspecific ga s is Cl when the optical length is L , , to measure a

    Generally speaking, it is very difficult to get the lowestmeasurable concentration C , of a specific spectrometer, but itis possible to deduce it from the spectra of a measuredconcentration C. Suppose that under the same set ofinstrument parameters, the signal-to-noise ratio (S") ear tothe lowest detection limit C,,,, (when all the parameters areadjusted to the most sensitive status) is a constant, then wehave:

    speed while measuring. Parameters of the instruments areadjusted as the same scanning speed, 0.3154cm/s, and thesame resolution, 4.0cm-l. Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 are clipped fromthe typical spectra collected. Since data in Fig. . 4 .shows a5mm-high absorption peak with a 0.8mm-high noise nearbyf o r 4 . 2 5 ~ 1 0 . ~l-L when using a 7Omm-long gas cell, i48mm -long gas cell is needed to measure 1x10-6C a .

These results ar e appended lo Table 111.

    b) Experiments:Mixed diagnostic gases with appropriate concentrationswere measured on Perkin Elmer Spectrum GX. A glassenclosed gas cell with a 2.4m optical length was used. It wasan 11.5cm long cylinder with a volume of 100m1, and itsoptical length was given after 24 times reflection. Ultra highpure nitrogen was used a s balancx gas to guarantce theprecision. When the scanning speed was O.OScm/s, and theresolution was 4.0cm-', an average of 16t ime s scanning gavea typical spectra shown in Fig. 3, there ppm representsits data of main characteristic absorption peaks issummarized and calculated in Table 111 Where CO ha salready 'taken the m inimum detection limit for eachdiagnostic gas.

    the spectra collected show that the precise quantitativemeasurements mainly depend on resolution, sensitivity andbase line comeclion. For FTIR spectrometers, it is well knownthat the length of the scanning path decides resolution, the,scanning speed decides sensitivity, and a high quality baseline adds precisions to the measurements. Usually slowerscanning speed is more sensitive, but it is up to the frequency-response properties of the detector, the amplificationcharacteristic of the pre-amplifier and its successor. For theminimum detection limit is mainly decided by sensitivity, andspectra collected in our experiments show that the sensitivityof the 3 different laboratory FTIR spectrometers are almostthe same in the order of magnitude, the upcoming on-linemonitors using current laboratory FTIR technology can safelytake the average manufacturing level, i.e., the optimumoptical length can be suggested as 150mm.

    In this length, the lowest measurable concentrationscorresponding to CR, C&, CZH2, z R , CO , and CO 2 canbees t imatedas0.6x10-6, 17x104, 0 . 3 ~ 1 0 - ~ ,. 9~10~~,.8~10-

    an d 0.9~10.~espectively. This suggestion has consideredthe fact that data from spectra in Fig. 3 are not measured inthe most sensitive set of parameters of the spectrometers, datafrom spectra in Fig. 4 and Fig. 5are very close to their mostsensitive status, and the sensitivity of on-line monitors maydecrease with the severe on-line conditions such aselectromagnetic interference and etc.

    4) Design ofthe gas cel l :

    O i l o u t l e t It1Fig.6 Sketch o fa gar oell

    Were a 150mm-long optical length the optimum; itscorresponding gas cell could be made with no reflectionmirror and its volume could be smaller than 100m1, even assmall as 40ml. Then the most commonly used separation gascellusin g permeable memb rane on current on-line monitorsmight supply enough measurable gas to rcalize a continuousmonitoring. As the high temperature oil in the transformermight be harmful to infi-ared optical parts and DIGSdetectors, so to maintain the convention that the detector isequipped within the separation gas cell, an economic noveldesign is proposed in Fig. 6 . The sketch shows thattransformer oil is introduced into the shell of a cylinder and,pumped back to the transformer powered by oil circulatingsystem.

    Permeable materials coated on the inner wall made bypowder metallurgy can continuously separate dissolved gasesfrom the oil. Temperature of the gas cell can be adjusted by along tubule exposed in the air by appropriate oil flowingspeed. As a sophisticated expensive multi-pass gas cell isavoided, such a sttucture should be economic and practical,thus crucial in promoting the use of FTIR for on-linemonitoring of dissolved gas-in-oil of power transformers.C. Background Deduction

    The background deduction technique in a gas cel l methodresults in a spectrum that has all of the instrumentalcharacteristics removed. Theoretically, A single backgroundmeasurement can be used for many sample measurementsbecause this spectrum is characteristic of the instrument itself.This has k e n an ideal method to labra tory FTIR, but willnot be true to on-line FTIR, because the parameters of theequipment may vary with environment and time, and frequenton-line background collection is not easy to realize. It isfeasible to find a reference through a vacuum gas cell, but therelative vacuum system is sophisticated, adds difficulties andexpenses, and to fulfill the gas cell with complete freshdiagnostic gases again may be no t so easy or at least timeconsuming.

    G ao J i a n k ~ [ ~ roposed a m$hod on realizing quantitativegas analysis with no background FTIR spectroscopy. In themethod, transmittance spectra were successfully extracted byusing wavelet transmission (W T) method[. T he method isimproved to acquire real absorbance spectra here.
