Method for detecting water in aviation fuel by Raman scattering, involves irradiating aviation fuel with light source, and detecting light, which is scattered by aviation fuel

摘要

The method involves irradiating the aviation fuel with a light source (1), and detection the light, which is scattered by the aviation fuel. A signal characterizing the content of the water in the aviation fuel is emitted. A spectrometer (24), particularly a charge-coupled device detector, is used for detection. An independent claim is also included for a device for detecting water in an aviation fuel.
