In the above-mentioned liquid level detection system based on Electromagnetic Wave Method, electromagnetic sensor can emit a branch of electromagnetic wave (can be described as detection electromagnetic wave), which enters the inside of liquid nitrogen container by the gas outlet of liquid nitrogen container, in liquid nitrogen It is reflected at liquid level in container.When electromagnetic sensor detects the back wave being reflected back, electromagnetic wave sensing The time that device emits and receive the detection electromagnetic wave can be input in controller by the analog input channel of controller.Separately Outside, while emitting above-mentioned detection electromagnetic wave, the electromagnetic wave that can also send a branch of delay (can be described as joining the electromagnetic sensor Examine electromagnetic wave);The electromagnetic sensor emits and receive the time for referring to electromagnetic wave can also be defeated by the analog quantity of controller Enter channel to be input in controller.
Since reference electromagnetic wave has been delayed by a period of time, when controller can be according to the delay of reference electromagnetic wave Between, with reference to the time difference between the receiving time of electromagnetic wave and the receiving time of back wave, determine current institute's ranging from (i.e. electromagnetism The distance at liquid level in wave sensor to liquid nitrogen container);Then, further according to the electromagnetic sensor and liquid nitrogen container (for example, Vehicle-mounted Dewar) mounting height and liquid nitrogen container height, the current level of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container can be calculated Value.The current level value of liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container can be sent to host computer (for example, by PC/PPI cable by the controller It is sent to host computer) so that user can be by host computer come the level value of the liquid nitrogen in real-time monitoring liquid nitrogen container.
In addition, due to the controller also respectively with main solenoid valve, secondary solenoid valve, exhaust reducing valve, pressure charging valve, exhaust valve and Host computer connection, therefore the controller can also be by control signal (for example, the digital output channel by controller exports High level or low level) control the on-off of main solenoid valve, secondary solenoid valve, exhaust reducing valve, pressure charging valve and exhaust valve, so as to Further to realize the function to liquid nitrogen container automatic liquid supply.
For example, can be held according to liquid nitrogen after the current level value of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is calculated in controller The current level value of liquid nitrogen in device determines the need for supplementing liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container.For example, when in liquid nitrogen container When the current level value of liquid nitrogen is less than preset minimum level value, it can start to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container.
When needing to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container, controller can be made on liquid filling pipeline 7 by controlling signal (when not needing to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container, the exhaust valve 6 is in the open state, to guarantee to fill for the normally opened closing of exhaust valve 6 Air pressure in liquid pipe road 7 is the pressure of a safety, to prevent in liquid filling pipeline 7 air pressure excessive and lead to 7 quilt of liquid filling pipeline It destroys;And when needing to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container or liquid filling pipeline 7 is pre-chilled, in order to guarantee in liquid filling pipeline 7 There are enough air pressures, liquid nitrogen to be pressed into liquid nitrogen container or liquid filling pipeline 7 using pressure difference, it is therefore desirable to close the exhaust valve 6), so that the normally opened exhaust reducing valve 9 in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank 11 closes and (do not needing the replenisher into liquid nitrogen container When nitrogen, the exhaust reducing valve 9 is in the open state), and the normally closed pressure charging valve 10 in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank 11 is beaten Open (when not needing to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container, which is in close state).At this point, external heat will pass through increasing Pressure valve and pressure pipeline enter auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank, so that the liquid nitrogen in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank accelerates evaporation, So that the air pressure in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank increases, to achieve the purpose that pressurization.
When the air pressure in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank increases, liquid nitrogen in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank will be along the One liquid-transport pipe-line rises.In addition, before supplementing liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container needing that first liquid filling pipeline is pre-chilled.Therefore, Controller can the normally closed main solenoid valve on the first liquid-transport pipe-line open (not need to liquid nitrogen by controlling signal at this time In container when supplement liquid nitrogen, which is in close state), and the secondary solenoid valve on the second liquid-transport pipe-line is closed, Therefore the liquid nitrogen in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank will enter liquid filling pipeline by main solenoid valve along the first liquid-transport pipe-line In.Since main solenoid valve is opened at this time, and secondary solenoid valve is in closed state, therefore enters the liquid nitrogen in liquid filling pipeline It will promptly vaporize, so that the temperature of liquid filling pipeline is promptly reduced.At this point, controller can be opened by control signal Liquid filling pipeline will be discharged from the exhaust valve 6 in exhaust valve 6 on liquid filling pipeline 7, the liquid nitrogen after vaporization.
After preset duration is pre-chilled, controller can by control signal-off liquid filling pipeline 7 on exhaust valve 6, and The secondary solenoid valve on the second liquid-transport pipe-line is opened, so that the liquid nitrogen of liquid filling pipeline 7 flows into liquid nitrogen container 2, is started to liquid Liquid nitrogen is supplemented in nitrogen cascade 2.
When no longer needing to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container 2 (for example, the current level value of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is big When preset highest fluid value), controller can pass through the secondary electromagnetism on control the second liquid-transport pipe-line of signal-off Valve closes the main solenoid valve on the first liquid-transport pipe-line, and opens the exhaust valve 6 on liquid filling pipeline 7, stops into liquid nitrogen container 2 Liquid nitrogen is supplemented, and each solenoid valve is made to be restored to the state before fluid infusion, is automatically stopped filling after liquid nitrogen is full of so as to realize The function of dress.At this point, controller can also send prompting message by position machine further up, to inform that user has been completed liquid nitrogen Auto-filling.
In addition, in the inventive solutions, when not needing to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container, auto-pressurizing liquid nitrogen Exhaust reducing valve 9 on holding vessel 11 be it is in the open state, so as to discharge the air pressure in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank, To maintain the pressure in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank to be in steady state.And when needing to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container, Controller can make the exhaust reducing valve 9 close by controlling signal, and open pressure charging valve 10, so that auto-pressurizing liquid nitrogen stores up The liquid nitrogen deposited in tank accelerates evaporation, so that the air pressure in auto-pressurizing nitrogen storage tank increases, so that auto-pressurizing Liquid nitrogen in nitrogen storage tank is by air pressure indentation liquid filling pipeline 7.
In addition, in the inventive solutions, when the current level value of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is less than preset report When alert fluid value, controller can also send warning message to host computer, with remind user current level value already below report Alert fluid value, needs to supplement liquid nitrogen into liquid nitrogen container.
It, not only can be to liquid nitrogen according to foregoing description it is found that by the above-mentioned liquid level detection system based on Electromagnetic Wave Method The level value of liquid nitrogen in container is measured in real time, after can also realizing that low liquid level warning, liquid nitrogen auto-filling, liquid nitrogen are full of It is automatically stopped the filling and functions such as prompting.
In addition, in the inventive solutions, above-mentioned electromagnetic wave sensing can be realized by a variety of implementations Device will be introduced technical solution of the present invention by taking one such specific implementation as an example below.
For example, preferably, as shown in Fig. 2, in one particular embodiment of the present invention, the electromagnetic sensor packet Include: optical pulse generator 31, photelectric receiver 33, timing pulse oscillator 34, electronic gate 35, is counted and is shown delayer 32 Device 36;
The optical pulse generator 31, for emitting the first light pulse (i.e. detection electromagnetic wave) to measured target 30, and it is same When the second light pulse (refer to electromagnetic wave) is emitted to delayer 32 by optical fiber;
The delayer 32 exports after the second light pulse delay for that will receive to photelectric receiver 33;
The photelectric receiver 33, what back wave and the delayer 32 for receiving the reflection of measured target 30 exported The second light pulse after delay, and the second light pulse after the back wave received and delay is converted into back wave electricity arteries and veins respectively It exports after punching and reference wave electric pulse to the electronic gate 35;
The timing pulse oscillator 34, for generating the timing pulse of fixed frequency, and by timing pulse generated It exports to the electronic gate 35;
The electronic gate 35, is opened for opening the electronic gate when receiving reference wave electric pulse, and by electronic gate At the time of starting point as this timing, and the timing pulse received and reference wave electric pulse are exported to the counting and aobvious Showing device 36;When receiving back wave electric pulse, back wave electric pulse is exported to the counting and display device 36, and is closed The electronic gate is closed, as the terminal of this timing at the time of electronic gate is closed, is no longer exported to counting and display device 36 Signal;
The counting and display device 36, for recording the quantity of the timing pulse received, according to the markers received The quantity of pulse is calculated distance value and shows, and by the launch time of the first light pulse, the receiving time of back wave, second The receiving time of the launch time of light pulse and the second light pulse is exported to the analog input channel of the controller 13.
In above-mentioned electromagnetic sensor, timing pulse oscillator can provide the timing pulse of a fixed frequency, Benchmark as a time.After electronic gate is opened, by starting point at the time of opening using the electronic gate as this timing, directly When being closed to the electronic gate, as the terminal of this timing at the time of which is closed.Due to the transmission frequency of timing pulse Rate be it is fixed, so the time interval between two neighboring timing pulse is also fixed, therefore electronic gate can be passed through Primary opening-closing course in received timing pulse number, the primary opening-for calculating the electronic gate was closed The duration of journey (process of electronic gate is closed from reference wave electric pulse opening electronic gate to back wave electric pulse), i.e., it is above-mentioned A timing duration.So above-mentioned electronic gate is equivalent to the switch of counting and display device.Before carrying out ranging, electricity Cervical orifice of uterus is in close state.At this point, timing pulse not can enter counting and display device;And when carrying out ranging, work as electronic gate When receiving with reference to electromagnetic wave (i.e. the second light pulse) corresponding reference wave electric pulse, electronic gate is opened, and timing starts, markers Pulse singly passes through electronic gate and exports to counting and display device, the counting and display device start recording timing pulse Number;And when electronic gate receives and back wave (i.e. reflection after being reflected after on the first light pulse emission to measured target Wave) corresponding back wave electric pulse when, electronic gate is closed, and the counting and display device stop counting.At this point, counting and showing dress Distance value can be calculated, and can also show the distance value according to the quantity of the timing pulse recorded by setting.
For example, it is assumed that the distance between electromagnetic sensor and measured target are D, then:
Wherein, C is electromagnetic wave or the speed that light pulse is propagated in an atmosphere, t2DIt is passed for electromagnetic wave or light pulse in electromagnetic wave The roundtrip propagation primary required time between sensor and measured target.
Due to:
t2D=nt (2)
Wherein, n is the number of timing pulse, time interval of the t between two neighboring timing pulse.
Therefore it can obtain:
Assuming that the distance that electromagnetic wave or light pulse are propagated in time t/2 is a unit distance d, i.e.,
It can then obtain:
According to above-mentioned formula (5) it is found that a selected unit distance d value (for example, 1cm, 5cm or 10cm etc., specifically Value can be demarcated by timing pulse oscillator) after, the value of d is a definite value, as long as therefore having known and being recorded Timing pulse quantity n, the distance between electromagnetic sensor and measured target D can directly be calculated.
In above-mentioned electromagnetic sensor, optical pulse generator 31 emits a branch of detection electromagnetic wave to measured target 30, Emitted simultaneously by optical fiber to delayer 32 a branch of with reference to electromagnetic wave;Detect the back wave after electromagnetic wave is reflected by measured target 30 It can be received by photelectric receiver 33, and the photelectric receiver 33 can also receive the ginseng after delay from delayer 32 Examine electromagnetic wave.It, can be according to the delay time of reference electromagnetic wave, reference since reference electromagnetic wave has been delayed by a period of time Time difference between the receiving time of electromagnetic wave and the receiving time of back wave determines electromagnetic sensor to measured target 30 The distance between (at liquid level i.e. in liquid nitrogen container).
Since electromagnetic wave propagation will receive the influence of air refraction, temperature, humidity, electromagnetic wave meeting in communication process The deviations such as refraction occur, therefore are provided with the delayer transmitted based on optical fiber in above-mentioned electromagnetic sensor, and utilizing should Delayer is compensated due to the error that refraction occurs for Electromagnetic Wave Propagation and generates, thus even if when above-mentioned electromagnetic sensor and When the distance between measured target very little, the electromagnetic sensor also can be used and carry out high-precision ranging.
In addition, preferably, in one particular embodiment of the present invention, in addition to being missed in measurement process using delayer Except accuracy of the difference compensation to improve measurement, can also after electromagnetic sensor is set, to the electromagnetic sensor into The certain error concealment of row.
For example, error concealment can be carried out to the electromagnetic sensor by step as described below:
Step 1, after electromagnetic sensor installation being fixed, the liquid level of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is adjusted to highest liquid level Value.
Step 2, the current level value of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is obtained by electromagnetic sensor measurement, and this is current Level value is as the first level value;Using the difference of first level value and highest fluid value as first error value.
Step 3, the liquid level of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is adjusted to minimum level value.
Step 4, the current level value of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is obtained by electromagnetic sensor measurement, and this is current Level value is as the second level value;Using the difference of second level value and minimum level value as the second error amount.
Step 5, using the average value of first error value and the second error amount as error compensation value.
Therefore, after carrying out above-mentioned error concealment, an available error compensation value.When in subsequent process In, when carrying out ranging using electromagnetic sensor, error concealment can will be carried out according to above-mentioned error compensation value.For example, working as During subsequent, the current level value that electromagnetic sensor measurement obtains the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is h, then can should (h+ error compensation value) is as final measured value.
In the inventive solutions, above-mentioned error concealment only need to be carried out when electromagnetic sensor is installed for the first time, Hereafter it then no longer needs to carry out above-mentioned error concealment.
For another example error concealment can also be carried out to the electromagnetic sensor by step as described below:
The liquid level of liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is adjusted to highest liquid level after fixing electromagnetic sensor installation by step I Value, will be denoted as A by true highest level value at this time.
Step II, the current level value of the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container is obtained by electromagnetic sensor measurement, and will be deserved Preceding level value is as the first level value H.
Step III, using the difference of A and H as error compensation value.
It, can be in the follow-up process using electromagnetic sensor to liquid nitrogen according to the difference between above-mentioned two values A and H When any liquid level of liquid nitrogen in container carries out ranging, corresponding error compensation is carried out.
For example, ought be surveyed in the follow-up process using any liquid level of the electromagnetic sensor to the liquid nitrogen in liquid nitrogen container Away from when, it is assumed that the level value measured be h, then by formula below can to currently measure level value h progress error Compensation obtains more accurate current true level value a:
A=h+ (A-H) (6)
Its principle are as follows: when due to measurement the first level value H and current level value h, all there is identical error, therefore the mistake Difference can should be eliminated by (H-h).For example, it is assumed that the level value obtained measured by electromagnetic sensor is actually than true Level value want larger, then when measuring H and h, error amount should be it is identical, i.e., measured value is all than true liquid Place value is big.So above-mentioned error amount can be eliminated by (H-h).Wherein, as shown in figure 3, by (H-h) actually institute That indicate is the distance between the highest fluid value H of liquid nitrogen in current level value h and liquid nitrogen container, therefore by true highest Level value A subtracts (H-h), current true level value a can be obtained, i.e.,
A=A- (H-h)=h+ (A-H) (7)
Therefore, by the difference between above-mentioned A and H, corresponding error compensation can be carried out to electromagnetic sensor.
In addition, preferably, in one particular embodiment of the present invention, obtaining corresponding liquid nitrogen measuring preset number After the level value of liquid nitrogen in container, each measured value that measurement obtains can be compared with actual level value, then The delay time of delayer is modified according to comparison result, so as to further reduce error, improves measurement accuracy, it is real The now high-acruracy survey of short distance.
In addition, preferably, in one particular embodiment of the present invention, the liquid level detection system based on Electromagnetic Wave Method In can further include: one or more signal lamps 14;
The controller 13 connect respectively with each signal lamp 14 (for example, by the digital output channel of controller with The connection of each signal lamp), and control by control signal the on-off of each signal lamp 14, so as to realize liquid level instruction, Low liquid level warning such as is automatically reminded at the functions after being full of.
In addition, preferably, in one particular embodiment of the present invention, the controller can be Programmable logical controller Device (PLC).
In addition, preferably, in one particular embodiment of the present invention, the host computer can be PC, service The various equipment such as device or control centre.By the way that configuration software is arranged in the host computer, the host computer can be according to reception The data arrived, real-time display liquid nitrogen level can also further generate Historical Alerts and related data report etc..
