Referring to figs. 1 to 3 and Fig. 6, measure the device 100 at acceleration and inclination angle according to the thermal convection that utilizes fluid of one embodiment of the present invention, comprise container 10, radiator 20 and thermopair 30.
Container 10 holds fluid 1.Fluid 1 can be gas or liquid.Radiator 20 is arranged in the container 10, and comprises first heating element 21, second heating element 22 and point of crossing 23.For example nickel or chromium form first and second heating elements 21 and 22 by metal material.In the present embodiment, first and second heating elements 21 have identical length and resistance with 22.Form point of crossing 23 by the end that is electrically connected first and second heating elements 21 and 22.First and second heating elements 21 and the other end of 22 are electrically connected to electrode 24 and 25 respectively.Electrode 24 and 25 is connected to provides the current-source arrangement of electric current (not shown).When current-source arrangement provides electric current, in first and second heating elements 21 and 22, produce Joule heat.
As shown in fig. 1, thermopair 30 and point of crossing 23 point symmetries of radiator 20 about radiator 20.Thermopair 30 comprises first lead 31, second lead 32 and thermopair tie point 33.For example nickel or chromium form first and second leads 31 and 32 by metal material.First and second leads 31 are formed by different metals with 32, and second lead 32 is formed by the metal that is not nickel thereby first lead 31 is formed by nickel, for example chromium.Thermopair tie point 33 is formed by the end electrical connection of first and second leads 31 and 32.The point of crossing 23 of thermopair tie point 33 contact radiators 20.First and second leads 31 and the other end of 32 are electrically connected to electrode 34 and 35 respectively.The voltage measuring apparatus (not shown) that is used for potential electrode 34 and 35 voltages is connected to electrode 34 and 35.
The temperature of the point of crossing 23 of radiator 20 can use the voltage that is recorded by voltage measuring apparatus to calculate.The size and Orientation at acceleration and inclination angle can use the temperature that calculates to measure independently.The direction of acceleration is the imaginary line direction of the point of crossing 23 of process radiator 20 on the imaginary plane that comprises radiator 20.Equally, the inclination angle is that the y inclination angle is the inclined degree of this imaginary line direction with respect to the terrestrial gravitation direction.
Use according to the embodiment of the present invention of above-mentioned structure be used to measure principle and the method that the device 100 at acceleration and inclination angle measures acceleration and inclination angle and will be discussed in more detail below.
When the pressure change of fluid 1 in the container 10, the thermal convection of the variable effect fluid 1 of pressure, this causes the error of acceleration and measurement of dip angle.Thereby, accurately measure the step at acceleration and inclination angle in the time of will describing the constant pressure when container 10 inner fluids 1 below.
Be set to the initial point (x=0 of volume coordinate when the point of crossing 23 of the radiator shown in Fig. 1 and 2 20, y=0, z=0) and only on-z direction during the weight application acceleration, by apply electrical current to electrode 24 and 25 from current-source arrangement, in radiator 20, promptly produce Joule heat in first and second heating elements 21 and 22.Thereby the fluid 1 in the container 10 depends on the heat conductivity of Joule heat, fluid 1 and the boundary condition of container 10, and it has spatial temperature distribution in container 10.Thereby the part that the close radiator 20 of fluid 1 is heated by radiator 20 has the temperature more higher relatively than other parts.Therefore, the density of this part relatively reduce so that this part with acceleration of gravity side be in the opposite direction+be subjected to buoyancy on the z direction.Thereby this part upper space to radiator 20 (z>0) of the fluid 1 that is heated by radiator 20 flows.When fluid 1 is heated part and flows, because it is emptied that fluid 1 is heated the space that partly occupies, along with the lower space that is positioned at radiator 20 (z<0) and have the fluid that is heated the relatively low temperature of part than fluid 1 and flow to+z direction, the space of soaring is filled.When separating with radiator 20, the temperature of fluid 1 part that moves to the upper space (z>0) of radiator 20 reduces.Therefore, this part flows and fills the lower space (z<0) of heat radiation fluid 20 to-z direction along the madial wall of container 10.
So, thereby when as mentioned above when applying electrical current to radiator 20 and in radiator 20, produce Joule heat, the circulation that in container 10, produces fluid 1, i.e. thermal convection.
As shown in Figure 3, when on+y direction, applying acceleration a
yThe time, the direction that centers on fluid 1 thermal convection of radiator 20 is subjected to acceleration a
yWith the influence of the vector sum of gravity acceleration g, and change into the direction opposite with vector sum.Around the intensity of the thermal convection of radiator 20, i.e. the average velocity that flows of fluid 1 with the change of vector sum with being in proportion.Because the heat major part that radiator 20 produces is cooled off by fluid 1, so the variation of the size and Orientation of thermal convection has changed the cooling degree of radiator 20, the i.e. temperature of radiator 20.Equally, when fluid 1 when producing the radiator 20 of heat, the variation increase of thermal convection size and speed.
Figure 4 and 5 have shown respectively in+y direction and-y direction and have applied analog result under the acceleration situation that has with the identical size of acceleration of gravity " g ".Figure 4 and 5 have shown the fluid 1 thermal convection pattern that produces on x-y shown in Figure 1 plane.In Figure 4 and 5, arrow is represented the direction that fluid 1 flows, and the flowing velocity of the length of every line of expression thermal convection pattern and fluid 1 is proportional.The medial temperature of the radiator 20 of the current flow heats that is provided is about 150 ℃, and the medial temperature of container 10 is 25 ℃.Can see, depend on fluid 1 flow direction of acceleration change and the variation of speed, i.e. the variation of thermal convection, 23 produce maximal value on every side in the point of crossing.This be because, the heat high concentration on the point of crossing 23 of radiator 20 with and on every side.So the point of crossing 23 of radiator 20 is subjected to the influence of thermal convection the sensitiveest, therefore the cooling degree of 23 radiators 20 that produce on every side is the temperature variation maximum in the point of crossing.
At length, be applied to when having with the acceleration of the identical size of acceleration of gravity+during the y direction, as shown in Figure 3, fluid 1 part that is provided with in the space (y>0) of radiator 20 has the temperature that is higher than fluid 1 ensemble average temperature, and it is subjected to acceleration a
yWith the influence of the vector sum of gravity acceleration g, as shown in Figure 3, thereby this part flows with the direction in contrast to vector sum and the point of crossing 23 of cooling heat dissipation body 20.On the contrary, be applied to when having with the acceleration of the identical size of acceleration of gravity-during the y direction, fluid 1 part that is provided with in the space (y<0) of thermopair 30 has the temperature that is lower than fluid 1 ensemble average temperature, and it is subjected to acceleration a
yWith the influence of the vector sum of gravity acceleration g, thereby this part flows with the direction in contrast to vector sum and the point of crossing 23 of cooling heat dissipation body 20.
Thereby the temperature of radiator 20 point of crossing 23 that record when applying acceleration on+y direction is than the temperature height of radiator 20 point of crossing 23 that record when applying acceleration on-y direction.Because the temperature variation size of the point of crossing 23 of radiator 20 is decided by to act on the size of the acceleration on the y direction of principal axis, so, can obtain to act on the direction and the size of the acceleration on the y direction of principal axis with higher sensitivity and very fast response speed by using thermopair 30 to measure the temperature of the point of crossing 23 of radiator 20.
When use according to the embodiment of the present invention of above-mentioned structure be used to measure the device 100 at acceleration and inclination angle the time, can measure the y inclination angle as described below.As shown in Figure 6, when having only acceleration of gravity to be applied to be used to measure the device 100 at acceleration and inclination angle, the x axle is fixed perpendicular to gravitational direction, and the y axle tilts, like this+and the y direction becomes " h " radian with respect to gravitational direction.In this case, when acceleration of gravity during by resolution of vectors, with the equation " a relevant with acceleration of gravity
y=g cos (h) " provide the acceleration a on the y direction of principal axis that acts on inclination
yLike this, above by execution, obtain the step of acceleration to obtain the acceleration a on the y direction of principal axis
yThe time, can be from equation " a
y=gcos (h) " acquisition inclination angle h.
Fig. 7 has shown the Temperature Distribution at 23 places, radiator 20 point of crossing of depending on the inclination angle h that acts on the device 100 that is used for measuring acceleration and inclination angle and the acceleration profile on the y direction of principal axis, with depend on that when the electric current of predetermined quantity is applied to radiator 20 medial temperature that makes radiator 20 is the Temperature Distribution at 23 places, radiator 20 point of crossing at 25 ℃ inclination angle for the medial temperature of about 150 ℃ of containers 102.Can see that with reference to figure 7 temperature linearity of the point of crossing 23 of radiator 20 is in response to the acceleration magnitude that acts on the y direction of principal axis.Therefore, owing to measured the temperature and as shown in Figure 7 the family curve when having utilized constant pressure when fluid 1 of the point of crossing 23 of radiator 20 according to the device 100 that is used to measure acceleration and inclination angle of present embodiment, thus can with high sensitivity and rapid response speed acquisition act on the y direction of principal axis acceleration and with respect to the inclination angle of terrestrial gravitation direction.
Fig. 8 has shown according to the present invention the device 200 that is used to measure acceleration and inclination angle of another embodiment.With reference to figure 8, the device 200 that is used to measure acceleration and inclination angle comprises container 10, radiator 40, first thermopair 50 and second thermopair 60.
Radiator 40 is arranged in the container 10.In the present embodiment, radiator 40 is a rectangle, especially, is square.Radiator 40 is put 45 point symmetries about imaginary centres, and this point 45 is positioned at the centre of first point of crossing 41 described later and second point of crossing 42.Radiator 40 comprises first point of crossing 41, second point of crossing 42, the 3rd point of crossing 43 and the 4th point of crossing 44, and they are electrically connected to each other.First and second point of crossing 41 and 42 are arranged opposite to each other, and third and fourth point of crossing 43 and 44 is arranged opposite to each other simultaneously.Third and fourth point of crossing 43 and 44 of radiator 40 is electrically connected to electrode 46 and 47.The current-source arrangement (not shown) that is used to provide current to electrode 46 and 47 is connected to electrode 46 and 47.When providing electric current, in radiator 40, produce Joule heat by current-source arrangement.
First thermopair 50 comprises first lead 51, second lead 52 and thermopair tie point 53.For example nickel and chromium form first and second leads 51 and 52 by metal material.First and second leads 51 are formed by different metals with 52.First and second leads 51 and 52 end are electrically connected and form thermopair tie point 53.First point of crossing 41 of thermopair tie point 53 contact radiators 40.First and second leads 51 and 52 the other end are electrically connected to electrode 54 and 55 respectively.The voltage measuring apparatus (not shown) that is used for voltage between potential electrode 54 and 55 is connected to electrode 54 and 55.
Second thermopair 60 and first thermopair 50 are put 45 point symmetries about imaginary centres.Second thermopair 60 comprises privates 61, privates 62 and thermopair tie point 63.For example nickel and chromium form third and fourth lead 61 and 62 by metal material.Third and fourth lead 61 is formed by different metals with 62.Third and fourth lead 61 and 62 end are electrically connected and form thermopair tie point 63.Second point of crossing 42 of thermopair tie point 63 contact radiators 40.Third and fourth lead 61 and 62 the other end are electrically connected to electrode 64 and 65 respectively.The voltage measuring apparatus (not shown) that is used for voltage between potential electrode 64 and 65 is connected to electrode 64 and 65.
First and second point of crossing 41 of radiator 40 and 42 temperature can use the voltage that records by voltage measuring apparatus to calculate.The difference of the temperature that use records can be measured the size and Orientation and the inclination angle of acceleration independently, and the direction of acceleration is the imaginary line direction by each first and second point of crossing 41 and 42.The inclination angle is the y inclination angle, refers to the inclined degree of this imaginary line direction with respect to the terrestrial gravitation direction.
Measure the method at acceleration and inclination angle at the device 200 that is used for measuring acceleration and inclination angle that uses as above structure, when the constant pressure of fluid 1 in the container 10, apply electrical current to radiator 40 and apply acceleration a
yTo y direction of principal axis as shown in Figure 8.Be similar to aforementioned embodiments of the present invention, produce the thermal convection component on the y direction of principal axis around the radiator 40.Yet in this embodiment,, therefore be positioned at first and second point of crossing 41 and 42 radiator 40 parts on every side and have reciprocal shape about the y direction of principal axis because radiator 40 is put 45 point symmetries about imaginary centres.
Therefore, on first and second point of crossing 41 and 42 of radiator 40, the cooling effect that the thermal convection of y direction of principal axis brings is reciprocal.For example, as acceleration a
yAct on+during the y direction, the thermal convection component of generation-y direction, thereby as top described with reference to Fig. 5, first point of crossing 41 is cooled off by the part that temperature in the fluid 1 is lower than fluid 1 ensemble average temperature.On the contrary, as top described with reference to Fig. 4, second point of crossing 42 is cooled off by the part that temperature in the fluid 1 is higher than fluid 1 ensemble average temperature.Therefore, the temperature of second point of crossing 42 of radiator 40 is than the temperature height of first point of crossing 41.
Because first and second point of crossing 41 of radiator 40 and 42 temperature differ from one another, as acceleration a
yAct on+during the y direction, become and acceleration a from the temperature T 1 of first point of crossing 41 that first thermopair 50 records with from the difference (T1-T2) between the temperature T 2 of second point of crossing 42 that second thermopair 60 records
yThe negative value that is in proportion.On the contrary, as acceleration a
yAct on-during the y direction, the temperature gap (T1-T2) between first and second point of crossing 41 and 42 becomes and acceleration a
yBe in proportion on the occasion of.Therefore as with the previous embodiment, when the constant pressure of fluid 1, by temperature gap between two point of crossing 41 and 42 of measuring radiator 40, can obtain act on the direction and the size of the axial acceleration of y according to the device 200 that is used to measure acceleration and inclination angle of present embodiment with high sensitivity and rapid response speed.Equally, use the front embodiment, the device 200 y inclination angles that can measure with respect to the terrestrial gravitation direction with reference to figure 6 described methods.
Simultaneously, the pressure of fluid 1 can change according to container 10 external pressures or variation of temperature in the container 10.In this case, because the degree of radiator by fluid 1 thermal convection cooling not only depend on acceleration but also depend on the pressure of fluid 1, so can't accurately obtain acceleration a
yWith the y inclination angle.A kind of even when fluid 1 pressure change, can both accurately obtain acceleration a
yWill be described below with the method at y inclination angle.
Fig. 9 shown when fluid 1 produces the Joule heat of predetermined quantities for nitrogen and radiator 40, along with the variation of the pressure of container 10, the temperature variation of first thermopair 50 that contacts with first point of crossing 41.With reference to figure 9, generally speaking,, produced more thermal convection, thereby the cooling degree of radiator 40 increases along with the increase of fluid 1 pressure.On the contrary, when the pressure of fluid 1 reduces, reduce by the degree of thermal convection to radiator 40 coolings.Therefore, when the pressure of fluid 1 changed according to the container 10 outside pressure that produce or temperature variation, the point of crossing 41 of radiator 40 and 42 temperature were not only changed by acceleration but also by the pressure change of fluid 1.Like this, can't accurately obtain acceleration a from temperature gap (T1-T2)
yWith the y inclination angle.
Yet, because first and second point of crossing 41 and 42 are subjected to by acceleration a
yThe opposite cooling effect that produces, thus the temperature T 2 of the temperature T 1 of first point of crossing 41 and second point of crossing 42 and (T1+T2) be all the time and acceleration a
yIrrelevant constant only depends on the pressure of fluid 1.Therefore, at the device 200 that is used for measuring acceleration and inclination angle, from temperature and the pressure that (T1+T2) can obtain fluid 1 according to this embodiment.By the pressure of the fluid 1 that use to obtain, proofread and correct the variation of fluid 1 pressure about temperature gap (T1-T2), even when fluid 1 pressure change, also can obtain to act on the axial acceleration of y exactly and with respect to the y inclination angle of terrestrial gravitation direction.

When the constant pressure of fluid 1 in the container 10 and acceleration a with x-y plane as shown in figure 10 on the x axle do the time spent at angle, above-mentioned embodiment as shown in FIG. 8 is such, the y axle component a of acceleration a
