Description

散装固体的质量流率的实时测量方法
技术领域
本发明涉及对散装固体的质量流率的实时测量方法,其中所述散装固体通过气动输送系统加载或卸载。
背景技术
该技术基于空气流率和在给定位置处压力下降的测量,该给定位置在散装材料的气动传输中遍及管道的给定长度。该技术也利用散装材料在传输时预先确定的压力下降系数。
因此目标是当从例如散装船加载或卸载所述材料时,提供估计散装材料例如水泥的累积质量流的简单、精确且经济的方法。
美国专利6,601,458B1公开多相流量计的原则,其测量流动混合物的流率和每一流体的比例。仪器需要测量:温度、压力、流体中声音的速度及散装速度。仪器基于上述测量使用模型计算流体混合物的流率。所述方法只能用于流体系统。该方法使用至少四个测量参数以做这样的计算,且在沿着管道的多个位置处需要传感器。进一步,没有指示它能测量粒子的流率。这与本发明形成对照,其只需要压力数据和空气流率数据。
美国专利4,506,541公开一种设备,其使用辐射源且通过探测散射辐射测量沿着管道残留在空气中的粉碎煤或其他相似材料的散装密度。辐射探测器测量被粒子散射的扩散辐射,该测量给出流动散装密度的测量。它使用煤粒流路径中两电极的电荷和互相关技术以计算管道内部粒子的速度。因此测量的该速度连同散装密度给出固体的质量流率。
美国专利4,506,541与本发明形成对照在所述专利使用辐射源、探测器和防护物,该防护物拦截直接辐射落到探测器上。辐射探测器测量被粒子散射的扩散辐射,该测量给出流动散装密度的测量。与一对电极相联系的以上所述用于速度的测量。进一步,该仪器在使用前需要在实验室规模装备上校准。在现场它将再次需要进一步校准。根据本发明,无需在现场或实验室规模装备上校准,且不使用辐射源。
EP974816A1公开测量粒状固体材料流的方法和装置,其中使用加压流在导管中循环的材料的质量流率通过在导管中产生的声学信号测量。基于所述声学信号强度计算此压力差。
进一步,美国专利6176647B1公开粉末质量流率的装置,其中在两个地点测量压力且估计压差。
具有进一步知道的流量计,该流量计基于穿过文氏管的压差测量液体流。这只能用于流体流测量,且本发明在流场中不具有任何文氏管(venture)或任何其他类型障碍。
发明内容
本发明特别涉及散装固体的质量流率的估计方法。在本发明的优选实施例中,两个或更多的压力计放置在气动输送系统管道中的优选位置处。这样的输送系统能够用于例如从船的货舱加载散装材料,例如水泥或相似材料,或将散装材料卸载到船的货舱。
根据本发明的方法中,至少两个测量器件排列在输送系统的管道中,之后当空气和散装固体的气固流发生时,从所述至少两个测量器件读取测量值的差,且此后在流动混合物管道的给定长度上在给定位置处估计散装固体的质量流率Ms。
能够使用不同的测量器件,例如压力计、加速度计、声敏感器等。在下文中,使用压力计的公式显示为实现根据发明的方法的例子。但是,应注意到当使用加速度计、声敏感器等时,在下面例子中使用其他公式。
附图说明
将通过附图更详细地描述作为例子的本发明,其中附图示出了本发明的原理图表。
具体实施方式
在本发明的优选实施例中,两个或更多压力计分开大约2m放置在输送系统管道中的任意给定位置,且当气固流发生时测量压力下降。优选地使用的压力计是标准的库存设备且因此不进一步描述,因为它们应当被本领域技术人员认为是已知的。
在这样的气固流中压力下降由
ΔP = 1 2 K ρ sus LV 2 D - - - ( 1 )
给定,其中ΔP是压力计1和2之间的压力下降。
K是流经管道的散装固体的摩擦系数。这从测试中预先确定。
ρsus是流动混合物的悬浮密度。
悬浮密度定义为:
ρ sus = M s + M air Q s + Q air - - - ( 2 )
其中,Ms是固体质量流率。
Mair是空气质量流率。
Qs是在截面1处固体体积流率且Qs=Mss
Qair是在截面1处空气体积流率。
D是管道直径。
L是压力计P1和P2之间管道截面的长度。
V是安装压力计P1的截面处的本地空气速度。
V的值能够通过使用空气流率Qair和压力计P1处的本地空气压力计算。
现在因为在任何时刻的V、L、D、K和ΔP已知,可以计算悬浮密度即ρsus的值。
现在因为Qair且因此Mair的值已知,可以计算固体的质量流率值写为:
V s = M s ρ s - - - ( 3 )
其中ρs是固体密度,其从之前的实验测量已知。
这可实时计算以获取散装固体的质量流,且由此获取经过优选截面的累积固体质量流。因此,输送系统中任意给定位置处,例如水泥的质量流能够被实时监控。能够在输送系统的不同位置放置一些系统以监控系统的关键部分,例如流入和流出口。测量的结果能够存储在电脑的存储盘,且实时和累积值的计算和估计也优选通过电脑实现。因此,基于此方法的结果可以实时控制空气流速度以控制散装材料的质量流率。
