Description

Electronic turbine flowmeter for gas
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of electronic turbine flowmeter for gas.
Background technology
This turbine flowmeter for gas with removable range insert (Meseinsatz) provides in EP 0 078 334 A1.
The measuring principle of turbine flowmeter for gas is: the kinetic energy that detected air-flow self is had, change into rotatablely moving of turbine by means of the turbine in the flow path that is placed in detected gas, wherein, the rotating speed of turbine is proportional to detected gas flow or detected gas volume in the ideal case.
Generally, detect the rotating speed of turbine by means of corresponding sensing technology.For this reason, be the sensor that turbo arrangement directly makes progress, its mode is: when the blade of turbine from the side through out-of-date generation pulse, this pulse is delivered to the quantity of state converter of an electronic type that is connected.The output shaft of turboshaft orders about a mechanical type meter.In the front or the back of this meter, generally all be connected in series already mentioned quantity of state converter, by corresponding calibration data the metering result is measured correction by it.This metering correction is essential, because metering result's quality at first is subjected to the influence of a series of mechanical quantity and hydrodynamics technology parameter, as the friction loss of turbine, it increases along with the increase of the block bearing wearing and tearing of turbine.
Generally speaking, if capacity is low, gas density is little, then measuring error is bigger, because gas is compared smaller to the driving merit of turbine with those mechanical influence parameters in this scope.The metering result depends on the physical dimension size of meter in addition, especially acts on each stream pressure of impeller, the coefficient of viscosity of gas and the air pressure of density and gas etc.
During calibration, consider that the main path of these parameters influence is: obtains one and detect graph of errors, utilize in its described quantity of state converter and each to be measured the result revise or can carry out this correction in the above.Mainly be that turbine flowmeter for gas is moved having only under the working pressure, therefore also under this working pressure, calibrate, and the top measuring error correction of explaining can be considered as in traditional characteristic curve correction subsequently enough accurately.
Another metering result's main parameter that is the possible source of error of influencing is the gas flow friction, and it is according to the difference of its streamer mode---laminar flow or turbulent flow---and the generation Different Effects.Under the general work situation of turbine flowmeter for gas, the air-flow that is occurred mainly is a turbulent flow, especially under high pressure applications.In the ideal case, has proportional relation between the rotating speed of gas velocity here and turbine.The influence of change of pressure can be paid attention to by accurate interpolation or extrapolation.
But, must measure the working pressure of detected gas all the time for this reason.In a kind of so-called Reynolds-linearization mode, it is finished by multinomial coefficient or corresponding correction chart, wherein considers the influence of working pressure and above-mentioned Reynolds number, so just can consider consequent metering result's deviation.The method of this complexity is seldom used up to now.
Summary of the invention
Target of the present invention is: create a kind of turbine flowmeter for gas, it has higher measuring accuracy, and does not have corresponding complicated subsequent calibrations, error correction, can use in broad as far as possible application.Target of the present invention is to realize by following technical scheme.
A kind of turbine flowmeter for gas, has a turbine, the turbo blade of this turbine is placed in the gas channel of detected gas, wherein, described turbine is placed on the axle or wheel shaft by ball bearing supporting, in fixed air-flow rectifier, settling a sensor outer housing with a meter electronics, wherein, the constant radial transducer of meter and at least one stationkeeping that directly makes progress is carried out data and is connected, radial transducer is configured the rotary body that rotates with turbine at least one separately, its mode make rotary body from the radial transducer next door through the time produce a pulse train that is proportional to the rotational speed of turbine respectively.
Turbine flowmeter for gas has a meter electronics, since be the turbine flowmeter for gas of electronic type, at first it does not have general mechanical problem and correction, and these are absolutely necessary in mechanical type running roller meter.
Another major advantage of gas meter of the present invention is: meter is protected among a sensor outer housing, and it is settled along the equidirectional of air current flow, and has therefore reduced the demand to taking up space significantly.Integrated sensor outer housing can be equipped or change as required subsequently.Wherein, within the scope of the invention, sensor outer housing can be placed in the front or the back of the turbine of meter on airflow direction.
Within the scope of the invention, sensor outer housing and be placed in wherein meter with at least one radially sensing element carry out data and be connected, be with foregoing sensor difference: this sensing element be not to the blade of turbine but to a special rotary body that is connected with turbine and rotates therewith from the side through carrying out computing.The pulse that rotary body produced of for this reason constructing by means of self, with the pulsion phase ratio that is generally produced by passing through from the side of turbo blade, it detects and data processing is more clear, degree of accuracy is also higher.
Can improve measuring accuracy by other sensors of making progress of footpath, on their circular orbits in an imagination, preferably settle equally spacedly.By using at least two sensors, can in corresponding computing, pick out the variation of sense of rotation, and revise for the possible error of other each sensor by the interference (Redundanz) that obtains thus for pulse train.
In a kind of preferable configuration, rotary body is a hole circle that rotates with turbine, wherein, in the framework of an induction type detecting device, as the situation here, perhaps the process from the side with the boring on solid material (Vollmaterial) or the hole circle detects and is handled as signal.Use this hole circle, the mobile phase ratio with detecting blade can detect the rotation of turbine more accurately.
Such sensor can be simply near switch (Naeherungsschalter), because rotary body allows to produce high-precision signal.According to requirement to accuracy of detection, and other requirements of the auxiliary process that also will describe again, meter of the present invention also can be equipped expensive stroke counter (Wegaufnehmer).
In the another kind expansion of meter of the present invention, for the rotary body that is connected with turbine also has been equipped with at least one axial sensor.
In this structure, rotary body has a disc that has boring that rotates jointly with turbine extraly, therefore, the process from the side of this disc contactlessly produces the series of pulses that a density is directly proportional with the rotational speed of turbine in an induction type detecting device.
The metering result of this axial sensor can be used for interference detection or error correction.Disposing for impeller under the situation of a plurality of axial sensor, can also distinguish sense of rotation.
In a kind of preferable configuration, especially improve in the structure of accuracy of detection, meter not only equip one this radially or axial sensor, but have four sensors on the circumference that is placed in ball bearing equally spacedly.By using a plurality of sensors, can pick out the contingent sense of rotation counter-rotating of turbine, can differentiate the malfunctioning of a sensor, perhaps the drift of some sensors is revised by consequent interference.
In another kind expansion, radially and/or axial sensor be fabricated to analog signal sensors, they according to rotary body from the side through and produce an analog pulse signal.
By for the amplitude of the pulse signal of radial transducer or the calculation process of noise, the abrasion condition that can cause according to the operation of ball bearing picks out that it is contingent unbalance or damage.Calculation process also is to finish in the meter electronics in the sensor outer housing of turbine flowmeter for gas.
Be associated with the processing computing of simulating signal, compare with a scope given in advance.If exceed or be lower than can be given in advance threshold values, just produce a caution signal, provide the information that must change or repair the ball bearing of turbine as early as possible.The processing of the simulating signal of radial transducer can be distinguished people thus in early days and is detected error and be used in time preventing that contingent meter is malfunctioning.For the ball bearing abrasion condition, monitoring becomes another measure that improves the meter accuracy of detection and prevent its inefficacy.
By calculating, can find the surface and the rotary body of sensor and be attached thereto may changing of distance between the turbine that connects the simulating signal of sensor.Wherein, if rotary body will have peculiar advantage axially and directly upwards only having one or a few boring, because prolonged the burst length of signal thus, this signal is used to calculate the spacing of determining rotary body and axial sensor.Compare with calculating, can detect spacing defined above more accurately thus by short pulse of time.
The variation of this spacing produces because of damage of bearings and the stream pressure that acted on the turbine by air-flow.This stream pressure, the load variations significantly that particularly produces when turbine starts and stops can be damaged turbine, and therefore obvious damage meter.The load change scope of meter manufacturer so all given in principle load range that allows and permission.
In a kind of preferable configuration, therefore the mutual relationship between the pulse signal of axial sensor and the threshold values given in advance is detected, and produces a mistake and/or warning warning when exceeding.Utilize the testing result of axial sensor, can also determine service intervals in addition, identify variation tendency or send early warning.
Calculation process described above allows us in advance or pick out contingent flowmeter error at once or it is malfunctioning, and in most cases can also determine its reason, provides about the document form that overload may take place with one.
The sensor outer housing that is placed in the air-flow rectifier inside of flowmeter manufactures bubble-tight, and therefore, the pressure that exists in sensor outer housing and is what to separate between the operating pressure of all gases pressure or detected gas.
In the sensor outer housing inside of impermeability structure, be arranged to ubiquity atmospheric pressure or slight low pressure (vacuum) and keep constant.
Turbine flowmeter for gas of the present invention is equipped with a pressure detector in addition, and it is for the configuration of the pressure chamber of turbine, is used for measuring the gaseous tension or the operating pressure of detected gas.This gas meter is connected with the meter electronics data.
Here proved already: the pressure detector in being placed in the pressure chamber has advantage when working according to the reliable method of pressure differential detection.For this reason, pressure detector self is equipped with a detected pressures chamber, provides reference value by it for pressure differential detection.
In a kind of preferable configuration, can by means of one for meter configuration memory element---it is placed in the sensor outer housing too, the correction chart or the multinomial coefficient of each meter stored.By continuing to monitor for the gaseous tension of operating pressure or detected gas, and send each operating pressure to meter electronics, can be by means of the table of corrections or the multinomial coefficient that leave in the memory element in meter, the result revises automatically to metering, has wherein considered the influence of each gas density or each gaseous tension.So far the turbine flowmeter for gas of only calibrating for a kind of operating pressure, can be according to this automatic error correction, in preset range, use,, finish corresponding correction by means of being stored the correction chart in above-mentioned memory element or the help of multinomial coefficient.
The internal pressure of sensor outer housing and all gases are irrelevant, with leave memory element in the combining of Reynolds number, and, make the use scope of a predetermined operating pressure just of turbine flowmeter for gas of the present invention, but whole pressure limit to the detection of each gaseous tension.
Except the automatic consideration that the front illustrated to all gases density, can also carry out other known features curve correction, method is: deposit various graph of errors extraly in memory element, and be used for the metering result is revised automatically.
In another expansion of the present invention, on the flow path of detected gas or settling in the pressure chamber of turbine, settle other pressure transducer, so that obtain other measurement of correlation parameter, revise the metering result.
In the memory element of meter, deposit other metering related data, as manufacturer's data, detection data and curves or calibration data.Especially can also utilize memory element to show the detection data that the time period given in advance is interior.
Can come to provide safeguard protection by means of emergency power pack in addition for the metering result who produces in the meter electronics.
The fundamental difference of meter electronics of the present invention and traditional meter is: by means of the data that leave in the memory element, as the service data of each detection, the result revises automatically for metering.Shown, storage or detect respectively measure the result, in needed measuring accuracy scope, all finished error correction.

Below as follows for the function declaration of above-described turbine flowmeter for gas 1.
Examined gas imports in the gas channel 2 by an air-flow guiding structure, and a turbine 5 that is positioned on the axle 7 is being settled in the there.The driving of the kinetic energy that gas had that the turbo blade 6 of this turbine 5 is flow through sailed and rotated.Be supported on the rotation of the turbine 5 of axle on 7 by two ball bearing 8, make the next door process of rotary body 15 from sensor 13 and 14.Sensor 13 is connected with meter electronics 3 by corresponding conducting rod, and the latter is placed in the sensor outer housing 11. Sensor 13 and 14 sends the pulse of certain density, and they are corresponding to boring 18 situations of process from the side on the rotary body 15.
Like this, produced a signal that is directly proportional with air-flow, it can measure by means of meter electronics 3, and can converse corresponding detected gas amount by corresponding conversion.
In addition, settling a pressure detector in gas channel 2, it is worked according to the pressure differential detection principle.As the datum pressure of pressure differential detection, use the internal pressure of this pressure detector.Sensor outer housing 11 with respect to other gas channel 2 for impermeability sealing.In this sensor outer housing 11, be vacuum state or atmospheric pressure.
Therefore be placed in pressure detector in the gas channel 2 and provide each air pressure of detected gas.This air pressure can connect with stored correction chart in the memory element 4 of each flowmeter and multinomial coefficient, eliminates the influence of gaseous tension to testing result, promptly determines the true volume by the gas of gas channel 2.In meter electronics, automatically by means of for each self-configuring of meter, deposit in the correction data in the memory element 4, the barometric information that provides by pressure detector is provided, therefore carry out so-called Reynolds correction, and automatically revise the metering result.
Like this, can on one or two operating pressure points, calibrate 1 of above-mentioned turbine flowmeter for gas.
According to described Reynolds number calibration, next flowmeter can be used in the predetermined pressure limit, and it is determined according to each pressure transducer that uses by detected gas pressure, needn't calibrate or carry out with post-equalization.Therefore the application of flowmeter has enlarged significantly.
