A kind of flow velocity measuring system based on fluorescent tracer technique and method
Technical field
The invention belongs to fluid-velocity survey technical field, more specifically, relate to a kind of flow velocity measuring system based on fluorescent tracer technique and method.
Background technology
Flow velocity can reflect that fluid has this feature of mobility the most intuitively.Fluid-velocity survey technical development so far, there is a lot of very proven technique, more advanced technology has Doppler laser velocimeter (being called for short LDV) and particle image velocimeter (being called for short PIV), and the general character of these two kinds of methods will throw in trace particle exactly in fluid.When the former principle is the trace particle when the flowing of LASER Light Source directive, the scattered light frequency that particle sends can change, and detects that the change of frequency just can measure the speed of particle by electrooptical device, is also the flow velocity of fluid; The principle of the latter is that optically multiexposure, multiple exposure trace particle, in not position in the same time, just can measure not velocity in the same time by change in displacement.Doppler laser velocimeter and particle image velocimeter can reach very high precision in fluid-velocity survey, but cannot extensively promote due to expensive equipment.More simply, a kind of method that electrolyte pulse method measures flow rate of water flow is disclosed in the method (application number 01131826.0) that patent of invention electrolyte pulse method measures flow rate of water flow and sediment charge, by adding electrolyte in water, several groups of probes are being arranged along the direction of water flow, when electrolyte ion flows through probe time, voltage can change, so just can obtain electrolyte from rendering to the time t be detected, because input source and each distance L organized between probe can survey, the flow velocity of electrolyte ion just can be obtained, i.e. flow rate of water flow by L/t.Electrolyte pulse method reduces cost greatly, but very harsh to the requirement of water quality, and any charged ion all can produce interference to measurement.
In recent years, fluorescent tracer technique is widely used in the fields such as leak detection, flaw detection, sewage detection, and main cause is that it has highly sensitive, that reliability is strong advantage.A kind of method of fluorescence measurement water gaging matter stabilizer concentration is disclosed in patent of invention on-line automatic monitoring instrument of circulation cooling water quality stabilizing agent (application number 200810071307.5), fluorescer is added in the recirculated cooling water containing water quality stabilizer, the transparent vessel filling sample water is irradiated with incident light source, by the intensity of photodiode as sensor senses fluorescence, obtain the concentration of solvent in recirculated water with this.But current fluorescent tracer technique is not also applied to fluid-velocity survey field, this also becomes a problem urgently to be resolved hurrily.

Embodiment
In order to make object of the present invention, technical scheme and advantage clearly understand, below in conjunction with drawings and Examples, the present invention is further elaborated.Should be appreciated that specific embodiment described herein only in order to explain the present invention, be not intended to limit the present invention.In addition, if below in described each embodiment of the present invention involved technical characteristic do not form conflict each other and just can mutually combine.
Figure 1 shows that the structural representation of the flow velocity measuring system that the present invention is based on fluorescent tracer technique, comprise fluorescer delivery device 1, solenoid valve 2, excitation source 3, servicing unit narrow band pass filter 4, condenser lens 5, photodiode 6, signal processing module 7.Signal processing module 7 is provided with signal amplification circuit, single-chip microcomputer and LCDs.Fluorescer delivery device 1 and photodiode 6 are vertically arranged, are separately fixed at the place that fluid upstream and downstream distance is L.Condenser lens 5 is positioned at immediately below photodiode 6, and narrow band pass filter 4 is positioned at immediately below condenser lens 5.Excitation source 3 is positioned at downstream fluid, arranges at an angle with photodiode 6, and the extended line of its light path and photodiode 6 meets at a bit.The output terminal of photodiode 6 is connected with wire with signal processing module 7.In embodiments of the present invention, excitation source 3 is ultraviolet LED, and the fluorescer in fluorescer delivery device 1 is water base fluorescent tracer
Figure 2 shows that the process flow diagram of the flow-speed measurement method that the present invention is based on fluorescent tracer technique, specifically comprise the following steps:
Step 1 device powers on.Now fluorescer delivery device 1 is contained with enough fluorescers, and the solenoid valve 2 of fluorescer delivery device 1, photodiode 6, signal processing module 7 power on, and excitation source 3 is lit;
Step 2 applies a pulse signal, and solenoid valve 2 is opened momently, and fluorescer is instantaneous to be rendered in fluid, and first time measures beginning, and meter is now moment t
0;
Step 3 arranges check point in the place of distance release position downstream L, and whether the voltage signal at microprocessor detect photodiode 6 two ends of signal processing module 7 suddenlys change.Before fluorescer group does not also arrive check point, voltage signal can not suddenly change, and is left intact accordingly; After fluorescer group flows through distance L with current, arrive check point, under the irradiation of excitation source 3 light path, fluorescer group launches strong fluorescence signal, through the unwanted undesired signal of narrow band pass filter 4 filtering, then line focus lens 5 focus on the light-sensitive surface of photodiode 6.So, the sudden change of fluorescence signal is just converted into the sudden change of photodiode 6 both end voltage signal, is for further processing;
The weak voltage signals that step 3 obtains by step 4 amplifies through the amplifying circuit of signal processing module 7, and is t by the moment of the single-chip microcomputer meter voltage jump of signal processing module 7

wherein L represents the path along water (flow) direction between release position and check point, and in this result of liquid crystal display screen display of signal processing module 7;
Step 5 repeats step 2 ~ 4, takes multiple measurements;
The result of calculation of step 6 pair repetitive measurement is averaged, as last measurement flow velocity v.
