Detailed Description
In order to make the technical solutions of the present invention better understood, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
Example 1:
the present invention provides a flow rate detection device 10, and the flow rate detection device 10 may be a gas mass flow rate detection device, a gas volume flow rate detection device, or other suitable gas flow rate detection devices, and in the present embodiment, the gas mass flow rate detection device is taken as an example for description.
As shown in fig. 1, the flow rate detecting device 10 of the present embodiment is used for detecting a flow rate in a gas channel 20, the gas channel 20 includes an upstream channel and a downstream channel which are connected, a throat 21 is formed at a junction of the upstream channel and the downstream channel, and a cross-sectional area of the throat 21 is smaller than a cross-sectional area of either one of the upstream channel and the downstream channel, the flow rate detecting device 10 includes:
a first pressure test unit 11 for determining a first pressure value of the upstream channel;
a second pressure test unit 12 for determining a second pressure value of the downstream channel;
and the flow calculating unit 13 is respectively connected with the first pressure testing unit 11 and the second pressure testing unit 12 and is used for obtaining a corrected flow value according to the first pressure value and the second pressure value.
The cross-sectional area of the throat 21 (which means the area of the space through which gas can actually pass) of the gas channel 20 may gradually increase from the cross-sectional area of the upstream channel and the downstream channel to the cross-sectional area of the throat 21, so as to form two tapered channels on both sides of the throat 21. When gas passes through the throat 21 from the gas passage 20, the accommodation space of the gas passage 20 is larger than that at the throat 21, and a certain pressure difference is generated between the gas at the upstream passage and the throat 21. Under the effect of this pressure differential, the velocity of the gas as it flows through the throat 21 increases (e.g., reaches sonic velocity), thereby achieving a linear relationship of gas flow to gas pressure in the upstream channel, as shown in FIG. 2. Based on the throat 21, the pressure values of the upstream channel and the downstream channel are respectively tested to obtain a corrected flow value, so as to realize the detection of the gas mass flow flowing through the gas channel 20.
The flow detection device 10 of the present invention can be a part of a gas mass flow control system, and the flow detection device 10 can avoid the problem of inaccurate gas flow detection when the gas outlet 23 of the gas channel 20 is suddenly shut off due to external influence or fault, so as to improve the detection performance of the flow detection device 10 and further improve the control accuracy of the gas mass flow control system on the gas flow.

In particular, according to a first pressure value PiAnd said second pressure value PjThe corrected flow rate value Q is obtained by the following relationV
Figure BDA0001845248120000061
Wherein Q isVRepresenting corrected flow rate value, k representing proportionality constant, PiRepresenting a first pressure value, PjA second pressure value is indicated.
Wherein, in the present invention, when the gas flow in the gas passage 20 is abnormal, for example, due to the blockage of the gas outlet 23 of the gas passage 20 due to a failure, the pressure of the gas to the upstream passage is approximately equal to the pressure of the gas to the downstream passage, that is, when the gas flow through the gas passage 20 is abnormal, the first pressure value is approximately equal to the second pressure valueValue (P)i≈Pj) (ii) a When the gas normally passes through the gas passage 20, the pressure of the gas to the upstream passage is greatly different from the pressure of the gas to the downstream passage (for example, P)i≈2Pj) That is, when the gas normally passes through the gas passage 20, the first pressure value and the second pressure value are not approximately equal, so that the flow rate value can be obtained by multiplying the first pressure value by the coefficient k.
Based on the above theory, the β parameter in the formula can be used to accurately determine whether the gas normally flows in the gas channel 20, i.e. the gas mass flow of the gas channel 20 can be accurately detected, for example, when the gas normally flows through the gas channel 20, β is 1, and the actual flow is proportional to the first pressure (Q) valueV=kPi) When the gas flow in the gas passage 20 is abnormal, β is 0, and the actual flow value is 0.
Preferably, the first pressure test unit 11 includes: the first sensor is connected with the upstream channel to measure a first pressure value of the upstream channel; the first sensor driving circuit is connected with the first sensor and used for driving the first sensor; and the first A/D conversion circuit is respectively connected with the first sensor and the flow calculation unit 13 and is used for converting the first pressure value from an analog signal into a digital signal and transmitting the first pressure value of the digital signal to the flow calculation unit 13.
Here, the first sensor may be a pressure sensor, one end of which may be directly connected to the upstream channel of the gas channel 20, and the other end of which may be connected to the flow rate calculation unit 13 through a first a/D conversion circuit, so that a first pressure value measured by the first sensor may be converted into a digital signal by the first a/D conversion circuit and transmitted to the flow rate calculation unit 13, so as to smoothly obtain a corrected flow rate value.
Preferably, the second pressure test unit 12 includes: a second sensor for connection with the downstream channel to determine a second pressure value of the downstream channel; the second sensor driving circuit is connected with the second sensor and used for driving the second sensor; and the second A/D conversion circuit is respectively connected with the second sensor and the flow calculation unit 13, and is used for converting the second pressure value from the analog signal into a digital signal and transmitting the second pressure value of the digital signal to the flow calculation unit 13.
Here, the second sensor may be a pressure sensor, one end of which may be directly connected to the downstream channel of the gas channel 20, and the other end of which may be connected to the flow rate calculation unit 13 through a second a/D conversion circuit, so that a second pressure value measured by the second sensor may be converted into a digital signal by the second a/D conversion circuit and transmitted to the flow rate calculation unit 13, so as to smoothly obtain a corrected flow rate value.

and a valve device 30 provided at the inlet 22 of the upstream passage for controlling the gas flow rate of the gas passage 20 based on the corrected flow rate value obtained by the flow rate detecting device 10.
The cross-sectional area of the throat 21 of the gas channel 20 may gradually increase from the cross-sectional area of the upstream channel to the cross-sectional area of the downstream channel to the cross-sectional area of the throat 21, so as to form two tapered channels on both sides of the throat 21. When gas passes through the throat 21 from the gas passage 20, the accommodation space of the gas passage 20 is larger than that at the throat 21, and a certain pressure difference is generated between the gas at the upstream passage and the throat 21. Under the effect of this pressure differential, the velocity of the gas as it flows through the throat 21 increases (e.g., reaches sonic velocity), thereby achieving a linear relationship of gas flow to gas pressure in the upstream channel, as shown in FIG. 2.
The valve device 30 can directly acquire the corrected flow value detected by the flow rate detecting device 10, so that the size of the gas inlet 22 of the gas passage 20 can be accurately controlled to control the gas flow rate in the gas passage 20.

Here, the piezoelectric valve can directly control the size of the gas inlet 22 of the gas channel 20, and it can be connected to the flow calculating unit 13 through the piezoelectric driving circuit and the third a/D converting circuit, so that the corrected flow value obtained by the flow calculating unit 13 can be converted into an analog signal by the third a/D converting circuit and the piezoelectric valve is controlled to adjust the flow of the gas.
The flow control system of the invention can avoid the phenomenon that gas flows abnormally in the gas channel 20 when the gas outlet 23 of the gas channel 20 is suddenly cut off due to external influence or faults, thereby improving the control accuracy of the flow control system and further improving the performance of the flow control system.
In addition, the flow rate control system of the present invention detects and controls the flow rate mainly by using the pressure sensor, and has a higher response speed than the flow rate control device that controls the flow rate of the gas by detecting the temperature of the gas in the related art, thereby improving the control efficiency.
Example 3:
as shown in fig. 3, the present embodiment provides a detection method of a flow rate detection device, which may be a method for a gas mass flow rate detection device, a method for a gas volume flow rate detection device, or other suitable gas flow rate detection methods, and in the present embodiment, the detection method for a gas mass flow rate detection device is described as an example
The detection method of the flow detection device comprises the following steps:
s10, measuring a first pressure value of the upstream channel and a second pressure value of the downstream channel of the gas channel 20 respectively when the gas passes through the throat 21 of the gas channel 20.
Wherein the gas channel 20 comprises an upstream channel and a downstream channel which are connected, the junction of the upstream channel and the downstream channel forms a throat 21, and the cross-sectional area of the throat 21 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of either of the upstream channel and the downstream channel.
The cross-sectional area of the throat 21 of the gas channel 20 may gradually increase from the cross-sectional area of the upstream channel to the cross-sectional area of the downstream channel to the cross-sectional area of the throat 21, so as to form two tapered channels on both sides of the throat 21. When gas passes through the throat 21 from the gas passage 20, the accommodation space of the gas passage 20 is larger than that at the throat 21, and a certain pressure difference is generated between the gas at the upstream passage and the throat 21. Under the effect of this pressure differential, the velocity of the gas as it flows through the throat 21 increases (e.g., reaches sonic velocity), thereby achieving a linear relationship of gas flow to gas pressure in the upstream channel, as shown in FIG. 2. Based on the throat 21, the pressure values of the upstream channel and the downstream channel are respectively tested to obtain a corrected flow value, so as to realize the detection of the gas mass flow flowing through the gas channel 20.
And S20, obtaining a corrected flow value by analyzing the first pressure value and the second pressure value.
In particular, according to said first pressure value PiAnd said second pressure value PjThe corrected flow rate value Q is obtained by the following relational expressionV
Figure BDA0001845248120000091
Wherein Q isVRepresenting corrected flow rate value, k representing proportionality constant, PiRepresenting a first pressure value, PjA second pressure value is indicated.
Wherein, in the present invention, when the gas flow in the gas passage 20 is abnormal, for example, due to the blockage of the gas outlet 23 of the gas passage 20 due to a failure, the pressure of the gas to the upstream passage is approximately equal to the pressure of the gas to the downstream passage, that is, when the gas flow through the gas passage 20 is abnormal, the first pressure value is approximately equal to the second pressure value (P)i≈Pj) (ii) a When the gas normally passes through the gas passage 20, the pressure of the gas to the upstream passage is greatly different from the pressure of the gas to the downstream passage (for example, P)i≈2Pj) That is, when the gas normally passes through the gas passage 20, the first pressure value and the second pressure value are not approximately equal, so that the flow rate value can be obtained by multiplying the first pressure value by the coefficient k.
Based on the above theory, the β parameter in the formula can be set to accurately determine that the gas flows normally in the gas channel 20, i.e. the mass flow rate of the gas in the gas channel 20 can be accurately detected, for example, when the gas normally passes through the gas channel 20, β is 1, and the actual flow rate is proportional to the first pressure value (Q)V=kPi) When the gas flow in the gas passage 20 is abnormal, β is 0, and the actual flow value is 0.
And S30, controlling the gas flow rate through the gas channel 20 according to the corrected flow rate value.
Here, the size of the gas inlet 22 of the gas channel 20 may be controlled by a piezoelectric valve to control the gas flow rate in the gas channel 20.
The detection method of flow rate detection of the present embodiment can solve the problem of an abnormal flow of gas in the gas passage 20 when the gas outlet 23 of the gas passage 20 is suddenly shut off.
