Description

Air wave liquid level meter
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of electrical instruments and meters, in particular to a gas wave liquid level meter.
Background
For the measurement of the liquid level of high-viscosity media such as crude petroleum, syrup and other open containers drilled and produced, the petroleum and chemical industry commonly adopts a blowing liquid level meter for measurement and monitoring. The blowing liquid level meter utilizes the statics principle, forms certain pressure difference through different pressures of the positive pressure side and the negative pressure side of the differential pressure transmitter, and realizes the measurement of the liquid level through the differential pressure converter.
Static liquid at any height can generate pressure to the unit area of the bottom under the action of gravity. The unit pressure p is related to the liquid height h and the density rho:
p=p0+ρ.g.h (1)
wherein p0 denotes the liquid surface air pressure, g denotes the acceleration of gravity
Equation (1) shows that the pressure p inside a static liquid varies in linear proportion with the liquid height h.
The blowing level gauge is composed of a differential pressure transducer/pressure gauge, pressure transmission pressure pipes (positive side and negative side pressure pipes), and a blowing duct, as shown in fig. 1, and fig. 1 is a schematic view of the blowing level gauge in an embodiment of the conventional art. And the liquid level is measured and monitored through the change of differential pressure.
The negative pressure side capillary conduit is arranged at the tank opening to collect the liquid level air pressure. Due to the temperature difference, pressure difference and other factors in the medium, bubbles are often generated on the surface of the mucilage. When a large amount of medium bubbles are gathered in the negative pressure side pipe, the liquid level false image can be caused, and the normal collection of the negative pressure side pressure is directly influenced. Along with the change of bubbles in the pipe, the measurement value fluctuates greatly, and the fluctuation is high and low, so that the production is dangerous, and the production efficiency is influenced.
When the outside air temperature is low, the bubbles containing liquid and gas such as water vapor can generate condensation, and the outer wall of the tube can also generate condensation. The condensate flows down along the pipe, and the condensate freezes to block the air duct when the temperature is too low, so that the liquid level meter cannot work. In severe cases, liquid may enter the converter, which will cause the converter circuit to fail, freeze and damage, and the instrument cannot be used.

In addition, the wall of the air wave horn 100 is an inclined plane, so that the stress can be balanced. The waveguide rod 200 can be a stainless steel metal hollow waveguide rod 200, and is stable and reliable and wide in application range.
Wherein, the one end of guided wave pole 200 can pass through the mode of bolt with the loudspeaker tail of gas wave horn section of thick bamboo 100 and be connected, for example the outer edge of the loudspeaker tail of gas wave horn section of thick bamboo 100 is provided with the screw thread, and similarly, the interior edge department of the corresponding end of guided wave pole 200 is provided with corresponding screw thread, like this through the mode of screw thread with both fixed connection.

Further, the instrument may be provided in the case 600 so that the other end of the wave guide rod 200 can be connected to the instrument provided in the case 600 by being fixed to the case 600, wherein the connection of the wave guide rod 200 to the case 600 may also be by a bolt, for example, a screw thread is provided at a position corresponding to an inner edge of the case 600, and a corresponding screw thread is provided at an outer edge of a corresponding end of the wave guide rod 200, so that the two are fixedly connected by a screw thread, wherein the inner edge and the outer edge may be correspondingly changed, which is not particularly limited.
In practical use, the wave guide rod 200 and the gas wave horn 100 extend into the liquid to be measured, for example, can extend into the bottom of the liquid tank to be measured (absolute zero level, liquid flowing in from the gap), or can extend into the start position (relative zero level) designated by the user.

Specifically, the working principle of the air wave level gauge in this embodiment is described in detail with reference to fig. 4, and fig. 4 is a graph illustrating a force analysis of particles at the wall of the horn 100 in one embodiment of the present application.

Instrument position finding principle: static liquid at any height can generate pressure to the unit area of the bottom under the action of gravity. The unit pressure p is related to the liquid height h and the density rho:
p=p0+ρ.g.h (2)
if the height h0 of the measured liquid level is the initial position, namely the zero position, then:
p=p0+ρ.g.h+ρ.g.h0 (3)
can be arranged as follows:
p=p0+ρ.g.(h+ h0) (4)
wherein p0 denotes the atmospheric pressure of the liquid surface, g denotes the acceleration of gravity
Equation (4) shows that the pressure p inside the static liquid varies in linear proportion with the liquid height h.
The gas wave liquid level meter product is widely applied to liquid level measurement and control of viscous media such as slurry melting slurry, a settling tank, a crude oil tank, jam, honey, crude oil and the like.
In the practical use process, the gas wave liquid level meter is taken as an example for explanation, and after the gas wave liquid level meter is installed, the gas wave liquid level meter is kept still for half an hour, and then the measurement can be carried out by connecting a 24VDC direct current power supply externally.

The silicon oil sensing film of the air wave core body 400 changes along with the sensed pressure, the monocrystalline silicon generates strain, the strain resistor directly diffused on the monocrystalline silicon generates change proportional to the measured pressure, and then a bridge circuit obtains a corresponding voltage output signal.

The LCD can directly display numerical values and can also be connected with a computer or a control box in a remote transmission way. 4.0mA indicates a 0 level and 20mA indicates a full scale level.
That is, the medium level fluctuation collects pressure changes along with the medium level fluctuation, and the pressure variable is converted into a transmittable standard electric output signal according to the continuous functional relation of the pressure variable, the current and the voltage signals. The instrument makes the sensitive element of the air wave core body deform during the working process through medium pressure change, further causes resistance change, obtains an output signal after being transmitted by a micro-processing circuit according to a given functional relation, and completes the measurement of the medium level value of the container.
