Description

Capacitor-type Fuel Quantity Sensor method for regulating capacitance value
Technical field
Type of the present invention relates to one and may be installed various occasion and carry out the various oil levels such as gasoline, diesel oil, hydraulic oil accurately Measurement, be also applied for various non-electrically conductive liquid measure Capacitor-type Fuel Quantity Sensor, especially survey aircraft fuel oil storage dress Put the Capacitor-type Fuel Quantity Sensor of intermediate fuel oil liquid level.
Background technology
Capacitor-type Fuel Quantity Sensor is because of its simple in construction, mechanical motion structure, and measuring principle is reliable, durable, The fuel tank environment of rather harsh presents good compatibility and long-life, obtains extensively in World Airways oil measurement field Application.But the accuracy of this sensor is affected relatively big by connection arrangement of conductors electric capacity and temperature, thus constrains condenser type The raising of fuel level gauge certainty of measurement.
The transducing part of capacitance type oil level sensor is a coaxial container, by being arranged on the metal electricity of fuel tank internal Hold test pole, it is possible to accurately measure the trapped fuel amount in fuel tank.When oil enter cause after container sensor housing and induction electrode it Between the change of capacitance, this variable quantity is by the conversion of circuit and carries out accurate linear and temperature-compensating, output simulation letter Number or data communication supply display instrument or miscellaneous equipment.Use in linear capacitance sensor measurement complicated shape fuel tank on aircraft Oil mass, owing to there is the measurement error that electric capacity non-ideal causes in capacitance sensor, the attitude produced when measuring fuel oil is by mistake Difference, test result often produces the temperature error of considerable influence.Owing to Capacitor-type Fuel Quantity Sensor is by connecting arrangement of conductors electric capacity Impact and hardware compensating temperature error precision are the highest, have to use and add the method for draining the oil the most repeatedly after capacitive fuel gage installation Adjust.
Capacitance type oil level sensor is aimed at accurately measuring and making to measure, by being arranged on fuel tank internal of oil level Metal capacitance test pole, the level height change of minimum 1mm can be measured.Capacitance type sensor measures system at aircraft fuel oil In, the change of fuel level position may result in capacitance and produces change.By circuit, the change of capacitance is converted into the signal of telecommunication, I.e. realize the measurement to the change of aircraft fuel oil oil mass.Capacitance type oil level sensor is to utilize to be filled with liquid medium shape between positive and negative rapier The electric capacity become linearly changes, by defeated for the signal of telecommunication that the variable quantity (i.e. the variable quantity of liquid level) of electric capacity is converted into standard along with liquid level Go out.On the other hand, irregularly shaped due to fuel tank, special-shaped fuel tank determines the change of the height change of fuel oil and volume thereof not Linear, use analog circuit marked ratio to be relatively difficult to, so existing measuring method generally has bigger error. Owing to capacitance type sensor self capacity amount is the least, only tens pico farads, the most a few pico farad, therefore sensor is disturbed by parasitic capacitance Problem the most prominent.Inner tube, outer tube that typical Capacitor-type Fuel Quantity Sensor structure is generally made by metal material are constituted, electricity Appearance formula fuel-quantity transducer inner and outer tubes are relatively fixed, i.e. the distance of pole plate immobilizes, sensor production complete after pole plate Area the most no longer changes, and measures level height by becoming the dielectric constant of medium.But because of by material, processing method, assembling Deng the impact of many factors, the capacitance of different sensors is difficult to keep higher concordance, and this gives the line of aircraft oil measurement Property degree index, machine on zero, the work such as full position calibration make troubles,
Summary of the invention
