Since, chemically complex environments, the aroma has been a difficult task so far. Therefore, in the present communication, an optofluidic Bragg fiber artificial nose for perceiving the temperature-functional molar fraction of an adulterated binary composition of hydrated mono-alcohols is optimized and reported. The task is theoretically predicted over an optofluidic Bragg fiber sensor having geometrical defects by creating an asymmetry in mid of periodic cylindrical Bragg reflectors. In a cylindrical coordinate system, Henkel function (HF) and transfer matrix technique (TMT) are used to simulate a multilayer concentric hollow-core Bragg fiber (HCBF). The variation in refractive index (RI) of the adulterated binary mono-alcohol fuel is connected to the temperature-functional molar concentration, which is again anticipated by making use of several models, including the most suitable Dale-Gladstone, Lorentz-Lorenz, etc. A prominent sensing signal of which has the full width at half maximum (FWHM) equal to 0.1 nm is observed in the examined photonic bandgap (PBG). The signal is responsive to fluctuations in optofluidic core RI in the vicinity of a structural defect layer. The suggested sensor's temperature-dependent maximum sensitivity (due to varied weather circumstances) for ethanol fuel rather than methanol fuel is 1057.32 nm/RIU. Furthermore, the surface plasmon-based static temperature sensor is compared. Due to the smallest FWHM of output signal around 0.1 nm, other sensing performance metrics such as detection accuracy and quality parameters are also enhanced in the proposed sensor device.
