Abstract:
A multi-gas sensing system based on mid-infrared spectral absorption was developed for the detection of CH4, C2H6, and C2H4. The system utilized a broadband infrared source, a hollow waveguide (HWG) absorption cell, and a tunable Fabry-Pérot (FP) detector. The limits of detection (LODs) of CH4, C2H6, and C2H4 were 7.33 ppm, 2.13 ppm, and 8.09 ppm, respectively. For multi-gas measurements, the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm model was employed to calculate the concentration of each component. The root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) values for CH4, C2H6, and C2H4 were 15.91 ppm (1.26%), 1.64 ppm (0.57%), and 6.95 ppm (0.55%), respectively. The generation of stimulated absorption spectra of mixed gases was realized, and the sample selection of measurement for accurate concentration calculation of each gas was optimized. The system proposed in this work provides a simple, miniaturized, and cost-effective solution for multi-gas sensing.

Kirchhoff's Rules
Kirchhoff's first rule is called the junction rule. A junction, also known as a node, is a connection of three or more wires. The rule states that the sum of all currents entering a junction must equal the sum of all currents leaving the junction.

Chiral objects exhibit a sense of handedness when they interact with another chiral object. For example, our left foot can only fit in the left shoe and not in the right shoe. Achiral objects — objects that have...
