Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及一种电子涡轮气体流量计。The invention relates to an electronic turbine gas flow meter.
背景技术Background technique
这种具有可更换的量程插入件(Meseinsatz)的涡轮气体流量计已经在EP 0 078 334 A1中给出。Such a turbine gas flow meter with an exchangeable span insert is already known from EP 0 078 334 A1.
涡轮气体流量计的测量原理是:被检测的气流自身所具有的动能,借助于一个安置于被检测气体的流动路径中的涡轮转化成涡轮的旋转运动,其中,在理想情况下涡轮的转速正比于被检测的气体流量或被检测的气体体积。The measurement principle of the turbine gas flowmeter is: the kinetic energy of the detected gas flow itself is converted into the rotational motion of the turbine by means of a turbine placed in the flow path of the gas to be detected, wherein, ideally, the rotation speed of the turbine is proportional to Depending on the gas flow rate to be detected or the gas volume to be detected.
通常情况下,借助于相应的传感技术来检测涡轮的转速。为此,为涡轮配置径向上的传感器,其方式是:当涡轮的叶片从旁边经过时产生脉冲,该脉冲被传递给一个相连接的电子式的状态量转换器。涡轮轴的输出轴驱使一个机械式计量器。在该计量器的前面或后面,一般都串接着已经提到的状态量转换器,由它通过相应的校准数据对计量结果进行计量修正。这种计量修正是必需的,因为计量结果的质量首先受到一系列机械量和流体力学技术参量的影响,如涡轮的摩擦损失,它随着涡轮的支承轴承磨损的增加而增加。Usually, the rotational speed of the turbine is detected by means of corresponding sensor technology. For this purpose, radial sensors are assigned to the turbine in such a way that when the blades of the turbine pass by, pulses are generated which are transmitted to a connected electronic state variable converter. The output shaft of the turbine shaft drives a mechanical gauge. In the front or back of the meter, the already mentioned state quantity converter is generally connected in series, and it performs metering correction on the metering result through the corresponding calibration data. This metrological correction is necessary because the quality of the metrological results is firstly affected by a series of mechanical and hydrodynamic parameters, such as the friction loss of the turbine, which increases with the wear of the turbine's supporting bearings.
一般情况下,如果容量低、气体密度小,则测量误差较大,因为在该范围内气体对涡轮的驱动功与那些机械影响参量相比比较小。计量结果此外还取决于计量器的几何尺寸大小,尤其是作用在叶轮的各气流压力、气体的粘滞系数和密度、以及气体的气压等。In general, if the capacity is low and the gas density is low, the measurement error will be large, because the driving work of the gas on the turbine is relatively small compared with those mechanical influence parameters in this range. The metering result also depends on the geometric size of the meter, especially the pressure of each airflow acting on the impeller, the viscosity coefficient and density of the gas, and the air pressure of the gas.
校准时,考虑这些参量影响的主要途径是:获得一条检测误差曲线,利用它在上面所述的状态量转换器中对各个计量结果进行修正、或者能够进行这种修正。主要是使涡轮气体流量计在只有一个工作压力下运行,因此也在该工作压力下进行校准,并且随后能够将上面所解释的测量误差修正在传统的特征曲线修正中视为足够准确。When calibrating, the main way to consider the influence of these parameters is to obtain a detection error curve and use it to correct each measurement result in the above-mentioned state quantity converter, or to be able to perform such correction. Essentially, the turbine gas flowmeter is operated at only one operating pressure, and therefore also calibrated at this operating pressure, and the correction of the measurement error explained above can then be regarded as sufficiently accurate in conventional characteristic curve correction.
另一个计量结果的主要影响参数、亦即可能的误差来源,是气体的流动摩擦,它依据其气流方式的不同——层流或者湍流——而产生不同影响。在涡轮气体流量计的一般工作状况下,所出现的气流主要是湍流,尤其是在高压应用场合下。在理想情况下,这里的气流速度与涡轮的转速之间具有正比关系。工作压力变化的影响可以通过精确的内插或者外推予以考虑。Another major influencing parameter for the measurement results, and thus a possible source of error, is the flow friction of the gas, which has different effects depending on the type of gas flow - laminar or turbulent. Under normal operating conditions of a turbine gas flow meter, the gas flow that occurs is predominantly turbulent, especially in high pressure applications. Ideally, there is a direct proportional relationship between the airflow velocity and the rotational speed of the turbine. The effect of changes in operating pressure can be taken into account by precise interpolation or extrapolation.
不过,为此必需始终对被检测气体的工作压力进行测量。在一种所谓的雷诺—线性化方式中,它是通过多项式系数或者相应的修正表来完成的,其中考虑到工作压力和上述雷诺数的影响,这样就能考虑到由此产生的计量结果的偏差。这种复杂的方法迄今为止很少应用。For this, however, it is always necessary to measure the operating pressure of the gas to be detected. In a so-called Reynolds-linearization, it is done by means of polynomial coefficients or corresponding correction tables, which take into account the influence of the operating pressure and the above-mentioned Reynolds number, so that the resulting metrological results can be taken into account deviation. This complex approach has been rarely applied so far.
发明内容Contents of the invention
本发明的目标是:创造一种涡轮气体流量计,它具有较高的测量精度,并且没有相应的复杂的后续校准、误差修正,能够在尽可能宽广的应用领域中使用。本发明的目标是通过主权利要求所述的特征实现的。辅权利要求2至16中给出了本发明的优选构造。The object of the present invention is to create a turbine gas flowmeter with high measurement accuracy and without corresponding complicated subsequent calibration and error correction, which can be used in as wide an application field as possible. The objects of the invention are achieved by the features stated in the main claim. Preferred configurations of the invention are given in the
涡轮气体流量计具有一个电子计量器,既然是电子式的涡轮气体流量计,首先它没有一般的机械问题和修正,而在机械式辊轮计量器中这些是必不可少的。The turbine gas flowmeter has an electronic meter. Since it is an electronic turbine gas flowmeter, first of all it has no general mechanical problems and corrections, which are essential in mechanical roller meters.
本发明的气体流量计的另一个主要优点是:计量器在一个传感器外壳之中受到保护,它沿着气流流动的相同方向安置,并因此显著地减小了对占据空间的需求。集成的传感器外壳可以根据需要随后装备或者更换。其中,在本发明的范围内,传感器外壳可以在气流方向上安置在计量器的涡轮的前面或者后面。Another major advantage of the gas flow meter of the present invention is that the meter is protected in a sensor housing which is positioned in the same direction as the gas flow and thus significantly reduces the space required. The integrated sensor housing can be subsequently equipped or replaced as required. In this case, within the scope of the invention, the sensor housing can be arranged in front of or behind the turbine of the meter in the flow direction.
在本发明的范围内,传感器外壳及安置于其中的计量器与至少一个径向传感元件进行数据连接,与前面所述的传感器不同之处在于:该传感元件不是对涡轮的叶片、而是对一个与涡轮相连接而与之一起转动的特殊旋转体的从旁边经过进行运算。借助于自身为此构造的旋转体所产生的脉冲,与一般通过涡轮叶片的从旁边经过所产生的脉冲相比,其检测和数据处理更清晰、精确度也更高。Within the scope of the invention, the sensor housing and the meter arranged therein are in data connection with at least one radial sensor element, which differs from the previously described sensor in that the sensor element is not a blade of the turbine, but It is a calculation of the passing of a special rotating body connected to the turbine and rotating with it. The pulses generated by means of the rotating body itself configured for this purpose are detected and processed more clearly and with greater precision than pulses typically generated by passing by turbine blades.
通过径向上的其他传感器可以提高计量精度,它们在一个想象中的圆周轨道上、最好等间距地安置。通过使用至少两个传感器,可以在对于脉冲序列的相应运算中辨识出旋转方向的变化,并通过由此得到的过盈(Redundanz)对于其他的各个传感器的可能误差进行修正。The metering accuracy can be increased by radially further sensors, which are arranged, preferably equidistantly, on an imaginary circular track. By using at least two sensors, a change in the direction of rotation can be detected in a corresponding calculation of the pulse sequence, and possible errors of the other individual sensors can be corrected by means of the resulting interference.
在一种优选构造中,旋转体为一个与涡轮一起旋转的孔圈,其中,在一个感应式检测器的框架内,如同这里的情况,或者将实心材料(Vollmaterial)、或者是孔圈上的钻孔的从旁边经过作为信号进行检测并加以处理。应用这种孔圈,与检测叶片的移动相比,能够更精确地检测涡轮的旋转。In a preferred configuration, the rotating body is an annular ring rotating together with the turbine, wherein, within the framework of an inductive detector, as in the case here, either solid material (Vollmaterial) or a The passing of the borehole is detected as a signal and processed. With such an eyelet, the rotation of the turbine can be detected more accurately than the movement of the blades.
这样的传感器可以是简单的接近开关(Naeherungsschalter),因为旋转体允许产生高精度的信号。根据对检测精度的要求,以及还要再进行说明的辅助处理的其他要求,本发明的计量器也可以装备较昂贵的行程计(Wegaufnehmer)。Such a sensor can be a simple proximity switch, since the rotating body allows a high-precision signal to be generated. Depending on the requirements for detection accuracy and other requirements for auxiliary processing which will be described further on, the measuring device according to the invention can also be equipped with more expensive travel meters.
在本发明的计量器的另一种扩展中,为与涡轮相连接的旋转体还配备了至少一个轴向传感器。In a further development of the meter according to the invention, at least one axial sensor is also provided for the rotating body connected to the turbine.
在这种构造中,旋转体额外地具有一个与涡轮共同旋转的带有钻孔的盘片,因此,该盘片的从旁边经过,在一个感应式检测器中无接触地产生一个密度与涡轮的旋转速度成正比的系列脉冲。In this configuration, the rotating body additionally has a drilled disk co-rotating with the turbine, so that the passing of the disk generates a density and turbine in an inductive detector without contact. The rotational speed is proportional to the series of pulses.
该轴向传感器的计量结果可以用于过盈检测或者误差修正。在为叶轮配置有多个轴向传感器的情况下,还可以辨别旋转方向。The measurement results of the axial sensor can be used for interference detection or error correction. If the impeller is equipped with several axial sensors, it is also possible to distinguish the direction of rotation.
在一种优选构造、尤其是提高检测精度的构造中,计量器不只装备一个这种的径向或者轴向传感器,而是具有四个等间距地安置于滚珠轴承的圆周上的传感器。通过应用多个传感器,可以辨别出涡轮可能发生的旋转方向反转,能够鉴别一个传感器的失灵,或者对一些传感器的漂移通过由此产生的过盈进行修正。In a preferred embodiment, in particular with increased detection accuracy, the meter is equipped with not just one radial or axial sensor of this type, but four sensors arranged equidistantly on the circumference of the ball bearing. By using several sensors, a possible reversal of the direction of rotation of the turbine can be detected, a failure of a sensor can be identified, or the drift of some sensors can be corrected by the resulting interference.
在另一种扩展中,径向和/或轴向传感器制造为模拟信号传感器,它们依据旋转体的从旁边经过而产生一个模拟脉冲信号。In a further development, the radial and/or axial sensors are produced as analog signal sensors which generate an analog pulse signal as a function of the passing of the rotating body.
通过对于径向传感器的脉冲信号的幅值或噪音的运算处理,能够依据滚珠轴承的运行造成的磨损情况辨别出其可能发生的失衡或者损坏。运算处理也是在涡轮气体流量计的传感器外壳内的电子计量器中完成的。Through the calculation and processing of the amplitude or noise of the pulse signal of the radial sensor, the possible imbalance or damage of the ball bearing can be identified according to the wear condition caused by the operation of the ball bearing. Algorithmic processing is also done in the electronic gauge inside the sensor housing of the turbine gas flow meter.
与模拟信号的处理运算相关联,要与一个预先给定范围进行比较。如果高出或者低于可预先给定的阀值,就产生一个警告信号,给出必须要尽快更换或者修理涡轮的滚珠轴承的信息。径向传感器的模拟信号的处理使人们能够由此早期辨别检测误差、并用来及时防止可能发生的计量器失灵。对于滚珠轴承磨损情况的监测成为提高计量器检测精度及预防其失效的另一项措施。Associated with the processing operation of the analog signal, it is compared with a predetermined range. If a predeterminable threshold value is exceeded or undershot, a warning signal is generated, giving information that the ball bearings of the turbine must be replaced or repaired as soon as possible. The processing of the analog signals of the radial sensors enables detection errors to be detected early and used to prevent possible meter failures in good time. The monitoring of ball bearing wear becomes another measure to improve the detection accuracy of the meter and prevent its failure.
通过对传感器的模拟信号的计算,能够发现传感器的表面与旋转体以及与之相连接的涡轮之间的距离的可能变化。其中,如果旋转体在轴向和径向上只具有一个或者少数几个钻孔,将具有特殊优势,因为由此延长了信号的脉冲时间,该信号用于计算确定旋转体和轴向传感器的间距。与通过时间较短的脉冲进行计算相比,由此能够更精确地检测出上面定义的间距。By calculating the analog signal of the sensor, possible changes in the distance between the surface of the sensor and the rotating body and the turbine connected thereto can be detected. In particular, it is particularly advantageous if the rotating body has only one or a few boreholes in the axial and radial directions, since this increases the pulse time of the signal used to calculate the distance between the rotating body and the axial sensor . The distances defined above can thus be detected more precisely than calculations using shorter pulses.
这种间距的变化因轴承损坏、和由气流作用于涡轮上的气流压力而产生。该气流压力、特别是在涡轮启动和停止时产生的大幅度负载变化,能够损伤涡轮、并因此明显损伤计量器。计量器制造商因此原则上都给定所允许的载荷范围及允许的载荷变化范围。This variation in pitch results from bearing damage, and airflow pressure on the turbine from the airflow. This flow pressure, especially the large load changes that occur when the turbine is started and stopped, can damage the turbine and thus significantly the gauges. Meter manufacturers therefore in principle specify permissible load ranges and permissible load variation ranges.
在一种优选构造中,轴向传感器的脉冲信号与预先给定的阀值之间的相互关系因此受到检测,并且当发生超出时产生一个错误和/或警告报警。利用轴向传感器的检测结果,此外还能确定维护间隔、识别出变化趋势或者发出早期预警。In a preferred embodiment, the correlation between the pulse signal of the axial sensor and a predetermined threshold value is thus detected and an error and/or warning alarm is generated if an excess occurs. Using the detection results of the axial sensors, it is also possible to determine maintenance intervals, identify trends or issue early warnings.
上面说明的运算处理,允许我们提前或者立刻辨别出可能发生的流量计误差或者其失灵,并且多数情况下还能确定其原因,以一个关于可能发生超负荷的文件形式给出。The arithmetic processing described above allows us to recognize in advance or immediately possible flow meter errors or failures thereof, and in most cases also to determine their causes, in the form of a documentation of possible overloads.
安置在流量计的气流整流器内部的传感器外壳制造成气密性的,因此,在传感器外壳中存在的压力,与各种气体压力或者被检测气体的运行压力之间是分开的。The sensor housing placed inside the gas flow rectifier of the flowmeter is made gas-tight, so that the pressure existing in the sensor housing is separated from the various gas pressures or the operating pressure of the gas to be detected.
在气密性构造的传感器外壳内部,普遍性地设置成大气压或者轻微的低压(真空)、并保持恒定。The inside of the airtight sensor case is generally set to atmospheric pressure or slightly low pressure (vacuum), and kept constant.
本发明的涡轮气体流量计此外还装备有一个压力检测器,它是为涡轮的压力室配置的,用来测量被检测气体的气体压力或者运行压力。该气体流量计与电子计量器数据连接。The turbine gas flow meter of the present invention is additionally equipped with a pressure detector which is provided for the pressure chamber of the turbine to measure the gas pressure or operating pressure of the gas to be detected. The gas flow meter is data connected to the electronic meter.
这里业已证明:当安置于压力室中的压力检测器根据压差检测的可靠方法工作时具有优势。为此,压力检测器自身装备有一个检测压力室,由它为压差检测提供基准值。It has been proven here that it is advantageous if the pressure detector arranged in the pressure chamber operates according to the reliable method of differential pressure detection. For this purpose, the pressure detector itself is equipped with a test pressure chamber, which provides a reference value for the differential pressure detection.
在一种优选构造中,可以借助于一个为计量器配置的存储元件——它也同样被安置于传感器外壳内,将各计量器的修正表或者多项式系数存储起来。通过对于运行压力或者被检测气体的气体压力的持续监测,以及将各个运行压力传送给电子计量器,可以在计量器中借助于存放在存储元件内的校正表或者多项式系数,对计量结果进行自动修正,其中考虑到了各气体密度或各气体压力的影响。至此只对于一种运行压力校准过的涡轮气体流量计,可以根据这种自动误差修正,在预定范围内应用,借助于被存放在上述存储元件内的修正表或者多项式系数的帮助,来完成相应的修正。In a preferred embodiment, the correction table or the polynomial coefficients for the individual meters can be stored by means of a memory element assigned to the meters, which is likewise arranged in the sensor housing. Through the continuous monitoring of the operating pressure or the gas pressure of the detected gas, and transmitting each operating pressure to the electronic meter, the metering result can be automatically measured in the meter by means of the correction table or polynomial coefficients stored in the storage element. Correction, which takes into account the influence of individual gas densities or individual gas pressures. So far only for a turbine gas flowmeter that has been calibrated for an operating pressure, it can be applied within a predetermined range according to this automatic error correction, with the help of the correction table or polynomial coefficients stored in the above-mentioned storage element. To complete the corresponding correction.
传感器外壳的内部压力与各种气体无关,与存放在存储元件中的雷诺数的结合,以及对各气体压力的检测,使得本发明的涡轮气体流量计的使用不只是一个预定的运行压力的范围,而是整个的压力范围。The internal pressure of the sensor housing has nothing to do with various gases, and the combination of the Reynolds number stored in the storage element and the detection of the pressure of each gas makes the use of the turbine gas flowmeter of the present invention not only a range of predetermined operating pressures , but the entire pressure range.
除了前面说明过的对各种气体密度的自动考虑之外,还可以进行其他的已知特性曲线修正,方法是:在存储元件中额外地存放各种误差曲线,并且用来对计量结果进行自动修正。In addition to the automatic consideration of the various gas densities described above, other corrections of the known characteristic curves can be carried out by additionally storing various error curves in the memory element and using them for automatic evaluation of the metering results. fix.
在本发明的又一种扩展中,在被检测气体的流动路径上、或者在安置着涡轮的压力室内,安置另外的压力传感器,以便获得另外的相关测量参数,来修正计量结果。In a further development of the invention, additional pressure sensors are arranged in the flow path of the gas to be detected or in the pressure chamber in which the turbine is arranged, in order to obtain additional relevant measured variables for correcting the metering results.
在计量器的存储元件中,存放另外的计量相关数据,如制造商数据、检测数据曲线或者校准数据。尤其是还可以利用存储元件来显示预先给定的时间段内的检测数据。Further metering-relevant data, such as manufacturer data, test data curves or calibration data, are stored in the memory element of the meter. In particular, the memory element can also be used to display the detection data for a predetermined time period.
此外还可以借助于应急电源来为电子计量器中产生的计量结果提供安全保护。In addition, the metering results produced in the electronic meter can be safely protected by means of an emergency power supply.
本发明的电子计量器与传统的计量器的根本区别在于:借助于存放在存储元件中的数据,如各检测的运行数据,对于计量结果进行自动修正。所显示、存储或者检测的各计量结果,在所需要的测量精度范围内都已经完成了误差修正。The fundamental difference between the electronic measuring instrument of the present invention and the traditional measuring instrument is that the measurement result is automatically corrected by means of the data stored in the storage element, such as the operation data of each detection. All measurement results displayed, stored or detected have been corrected for errors within the range of required measurement accuracy.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
图1所示的涡轮气体流量计1,主要包含一个气流通道2,被检测的气体在引入后通过一个未继续给出的气体导入结构而穿过该气流通道2,然后流向一个这里同样未给出的气流出口。The turbine gas flowmeter 1 shown in Fig. 1 mainly includes an
在气流通道2内,安置着一个具有涡轮叶片6的涡轮5。该涡轮5安置在具有两个滚珠轴承8的一根轴上。在流量计的一个固定不动的气流整流器10中,安置着一个传感器外壳11。该传感器外壳11为一个气密性的空间,其中安置着一个电子计量器3,它具有一个存储元件4和一个处理器单元9。A
传感器外壳11上装备有一个传感头12,它具有两个沿着轴向取向的轴向传感器13和两个径向取向的径向传感器14,它们被安置于一个想象中的圆周上、位于同样为气密性的传感头12之中。这里,它们是感应式接近开关,它们被配置给一个旋转体15,后者与涡轮5处于同一根轴7上并与之一起转动。旋转体15为此主要有一个一起转动的盘片16,其外圆周以一个孔圈17为边界,径向传感器13和轴向传感器14从它上面擦过并与之保持一定间距。The
图1所示的涡轮气体流量计1中的传感技术,在图2和3所给的细节图示中详细给出。The sensing technology in the turbine gas flow meter 1 shown in FIG. 1 is given in detail in the detail illustrations given in FIGS. 2 and 3 .
图2给出了传感头12的一个端面侧的横截面,它具有径向取向的径向传感器14。FIG. 2 shows a front-side cross section of
传感头12与金属的孔圈17同心地安置,后者与旋转体15一起运转。The
这里,在所给的实施例中,孔圈17具有两个钻孔18。钻孔18在感应式径向传感器14旁边经过时,造成一个信号中断20,其出现的频率可以作为与涡轮5的转速成正比的信号。Here, in the exemplary embodiment given, the
在图3所给的另一个构造中,也可以为径向传感器14配置一个或者多个一起转动的金属接片19,来替代一起转动的孔圈17。它们的从旁边经过是从位置固定不动的径向传感器14上边擦过。也可以使用塑料制成的旋转体来替代,它用金属条粘贴在一起旋转的孔圈所在区域中。金属条在涡轮的旋转过程中擦过径向传感器14。这时,可以对脉冲21的密度进行运算,来替代信号中断20。In a further embodiment shown in FIG. 3 , instead of the
此外,在传感头12中装备有轴向取向的轴向传感器13,为它们配置了一个一起转动的旋转体15的盘片16,上面具有另外的钻孔18,类似于图2所示,它们产生一个与涡轮5的旋转速度成正比的脉冲序列。In addition, axially oriented
图5中以框图给出了安置于传感器外壳11中的计量器3,它具有一个前置的传感头12。FIG. 5 shows a block diagram of a
传感头12安置于一个耐压的外壳中,并且通过一个气密性的玻璃绝缘子22与传感器外壳11相连接。The
在传感头12中,为每个传感器13或14装备一个具有接近开关23的振动线圈。该振动线圈23通过一个放大器24连接到一个信号匹配器25上,后者已经被安置在其后的计量器外壳11中,特别用来进行模拟运算预处理。这样处理后的信号随后被传送到处理器9中,由于过盈的缘故,它普遍性地为双重的(zwiefach vorhand ist),与一个积分存储元件4相连接。计量器3通过一个切割位置匹配器(Schnittstellenanpassung)26、通过相应的其他气密性的玻璃绝缘子27,与一个电子仪器进行数据连接,后者额外地安置于涡轮气体流量计1的外面,在这里没有进一步示出。Each
以下对于上面描述的涡轮气体流量计1的功能说明如下。The function of the turbine gas flow meter 1 described above will be explained as follows.
受检测的气体通过一个气流导入结构导入一个气流通道2中,那里安置着一个位于轴7上的涡轮5。该涡轮5的涡轮叶片6受流过的气体所具有的动能的驱驶而旋转。通过两个滚珠轴承8支承于轴7上的涡轮5的旋转,使得旋转体15从传感器13和14的旁边经过。传感器13通过相应的导电杆与电子计量器3相连接,后者安置于传感器外壳11中。传感器13和14发出一定密度的脉冲,它们对应于旋转体15上钻孔18从旁边经过的情况。The gas to be detected is introduced into a
这样,产生了一个与气流成正比的信号,它能够借助于电子计量器3进行计量,并可以通过相应的转换换算出相应的被检测的气体量。In this way, a signal proportional to the gas flow is generated, which can be metered by means of the
此外,在气流通道2中安置着一个压力检测器,它根据压差检测原理工作。作为压差检测的基准压力,使用该压力检测器的内部压力。传感器外壳11相对于其他的气流通道2为气密性封闭的。在该传感器外壳11中为真空态或者大气压。In addition, a pressure sensor is arranged in the
安置于气流通道2中的压力检测器因此给出被检测气体的各气压。该气压可以与各流量计的存储元件4中所存放的修正表和多项式系数联系起来,来消除气体压力对检测结果的影响,即确定出通过气流通道2的气体的真实体积。在电子计量器中,自动地借助于为计量器各自配置的、存放于存储元件4中的修正数据,考虑到由压力检测器提供的气压数据,进行所谓的雷诺修正,并因此自动地修正计量结果。The pressure detector placed in the
这样,能够对上述的涡轮气体流量计1只在一个或者两个运行压力点上进行校准。In this way, the above-mentioned turbine gas flowmeter 1 can be calibrated at only one or two operating pressure points.
根据所述的雷诺数校准,流量计可以接下来使用于一个预定的压力范围内,它是根据为检测气体压力而使用的各压力传感器所确定,不必再进行校准或者进行随后校正。流量计的应用领域因此显著地扩大了。According to the Reynolds number calibration described, the flowmeter can then be used within a predetermined pressure range, which is determined from the pressure sensors used for detecting the gas pressure, without further calibration or subsequent correction. The field of application of the flowmeter is thus considerably expanded.
由于电子计量器安置于一个气密性传感器外壳11中的构造,还能够通过完全更换包括相应的压力传感器在内的传感器外壳11,来实现涡轮气体流量计1对于各种不同压力范围的适用性。Due to the configuration in which the electronic meter is housed in a gas-
电子计量器此外还与一系列的其他传感器、尤其是压力传感器相连接,通过它们检测到另外一些用于误差修正的检测数据,例如与涡轮的惯性行为相关的。The electronic meter is also connected to a series of other sensors, in particular pressure sensors, by means of which other measured data for error correction are recorded, for example relating to the inertial behavior of the turbine.
传感头12中的传感器为模拟信号传感器,因此,通过对于模拟信号的脉冲序列进行再运算、尤其是对关于径向传感器14的幅值的处理能够得到有关滚珠轴承8运行状态的结论。这样,从带着失衡旋转的孔圈17从旁边经过而由模拟信号传感器13、14所提供的脉冲信号的幅值变化,可以确定滚珠轴承8中可能发生的失衡或者损坏。The sensor in the
根据为脉冲的允许幅值所预先设定的阀值或预先给定的带宽能够确认:从那个失衡开始涡轮5的滚珠轴承8必须要进行更换或者修理。这样,能够及时地预防涡轮气体流量计1发生失灵,并因此整体上提高装置的失效安全系数。Based on the predetermined threshold value or predetermined bandwidth for the permissible amplitude of the pulses, it can be determined that the
从轴向传感器13看,对于模拟信号的运算给出一个与作用在涡轮5上的各流体压力值成正比的检测量,它大致记录于存储元件4中。这样能够辨认出流量计1是否在允许的范围内受驱使。The calculation of the analog signal, viewed from the
这样,特别是能够辨别出流量计在启动和停止时可能发生的误操作。需要时也能够及时地对流量计进行更换。In this way, in particular possible malfunctions of the flow meter during start-up and stop-down can be detected. The flow meter can also be replaced in time when necessary.
以上对于一个涡轮气体流量计1进行了说明,它的检测精度得到提高,原因是它不同于传统的涡轮气体流量计1,它的脉冲序列不是通过涡轮5的涡轮叶片6从旁边经过产生的。此外,这些脉冲被传送给一个电子计量器3,因此避免了可能发生的机械传递损失。Above, a turbine gas flowmeter 1 has been described, and its detection accuracy is improved because it is different from a traditional turbine gas flowmeter 1 in that its pulse sequence is not generated by the
在气流通道2中进行压力检测,另外由相应的压力传感器自身产生一个基准压力,并且还给计量器3提供了一个存储元件4,它具有涉及各流量计的雷诺数,因此,能够实现计量结果自动适应于被检测气体自身所具有的各种气压。The pressure detection is carried out in the
此外,本发明的涡轮气体流量计1具有的优势为:通过监测处于相当强烈的摩擦环境中的滚珠轴承8、以及作用于涡轮5和流量计1上的整体流体压力,使得人们能够保护性地早期发现可能发生的流量计缺陷。In addition, the turbine gas flow meter 1 of the present invention has the advantage that by monitoring the
