An optical system is provided that includes a conduit fitting, a first connector, a first conduit, a first ferrule and a first nut. The conduit fitting includes a receptacle. The first connector is disposed within the receptacle. The first connector includes a first bore, a first counterbore and a first port radially outboard of the first bore. The first conduit includes a first optics line and a first fluid passage. The first conduit projects longitudinally into the first counterbore and is attached to the first connector. The first optics line projects longitudinally into the first bore. The first fluid passage is fluidly coupled with the first port. The first ferrule circumscribes the first connector. The first nut is threaded onto the conduit fitting and is configured to wedge the first ferrule radially between the first connector and the conduit fitting.

Coupling optical fibers and cooling fluid passages

An optical probe includes an optical housing, a transmitting lens and a receiving lens. The optical housing extends from a proximate end to an opposing distal end. The transmitting lens is disposed at the distal end and is configured to output a first transmitted signal beams having a first transmission axis and a second transmitted beam having a second transmission axis that is different from the first transmission axis. The receiving lens is disposed at the distal end and configured to receive the first and second reflected signal beams corresponding respectively to the first and second transmitted signal beams. The optical housing has formed therein a transmitting optical channel configured to communicate an input optical signal from the proximate end to the transmitting lens. A receiving optical channel separated from the transmitting optical channel communicates the first and second reflected signal beams to the proximate end.

Optical time of arrival airfoil measurement probe

A low profile un-lensed non-intrusive stress measurement system probe may comprise a housing comprising a first channel and an optical face, a first hypotube disposed within the first channel and coupled at a sensing aperture in the optical face, and a plurality of optical fibers disposed within the first hypotube, wherein the first hypotube executes a bend between 45&#xb0; and 90&#xb0; within the housing.
