- a controller for generating a manipulated variable (manipulated variable signal) for a frequency converter of a positive displacement motor in response to a reference variable (command variable signal) and a first actual operating parameter is formed, wherein the actual operating parameter, as will be explained, preferably measured directly by means of a sensor or calculated on the basis of another actual size, in particular is simulated.
- the invention relates to a Verdrängerpumpensystem according to claim 15, comprising a positive displacement pump, a Verdrängerpumpenmotor for driving the positive displacement pump, a Verdrängerpumpenmotor associated frequency converter (for controlled or controlled energization of the motor windings) and the frequency converter upstream, formed according to the concept of the invention control means, wherein the Control means are assigned officerss effetnvorgabesch, for example in the form of a process control room.
- the invention relates to a drive method for driving a frequency converter of a positive displacement pump motor of a positive displacement pump according to the preamble of claim 21, wherein a control variable (control signal) for the frequency of the positive displacement motor in response to a command variable and a first actual parameter is generated.
- Today's displacement pump motors for driving positive displacement pumps include a frequency converter with integrated controller, which is able to regulate the input signal, in particular a voltage signal for the frequency converter as a function of a measured actual operating parameter and a reference variable to be achieved.
- the problem with this is that the controller associated with the frequency converter today is designed to be engine-specific, ie, it is not optimized with respect to the actual displacement pump of interest to the positive displacement pump can lead to problems with positive displacement pump systems, as of positive displacement pumps in principle compared to centrifugal pumps increased risk for the pump itself and / or for other process units. This is due to the different flow characteristics of positive displacement pumps. In principle, even in extreme cases, this can lead to complete self-destruction or sustained disruption of the positive-displacement pump, especially if signs of damage are not detected in time.
- the present invention seeks to provide positive displacement pump-specific control means for providing the manipulated variable for the frequency converter of a positive displacement motor, the control means to minimize the risk to the associated positive displacement pump for itself or other process units and / or optimal Product quality, ie to ensure a good quality of the delivery fluid. Furthermore, the object is to provide a positive displacement pump system with correspondingly improved control means and a drive method for driving a frequency converter of a positive displacement motor, with which the above disadvantages can be avoided. This object is achieved with regard to the control means having the features of claim 1, with regard to the positive displacement pump system having the features of claim 16 and with regard to the actuation method having the features of claim 21. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.
- control variable in response to a command variable, for example, a desired volume flow or a desired pressure of the fluid generated control variable, preferably a voltage signal not directly, ie uncritically or without plausibility, ie pass review as an input to the frequency converter, but the Control variable, or later to be explained by possibly additionally provided, in particular second, correction means obtained, corrected control variable or according to a functional relationship from the control variable or the corrected control value determined comparison value with at least a first limit (pump protection limit) to compare, the at least a first limit reflects a potential hazard to the positive displacement pump and / or another process aggregate.
- a command variable for example, a desired volume flow or a desired pressure of the fluid generated control variable, preferably a voltage signal not directly, ie uncritically or without plausibility, ie pass review as an input to the frequency converter, but the Control variable, or later to be explained by possibly additionally provided, in particular second, correction means obtained, corrected control variable or according to a functional relationship from the control variable or the corrected control
- the first limit value is not a static, ie fixed or specified limit value (of course additionally a comparison with such fixed limit values can also be carried out), but a dynamically determined limit value which Basis of actual operating parameters is calculated.
- the limit value is actually calculated as a function of actual operating parameters, wherein these actual operating parameters can be the first actual operating parameter, ie an actual controlled variable from the controlled system, on the basis of which the controller determines and corrects the manipulated variable at least one further, ie another actual operating parameter, which is either measured directly by means of a sensor or calculated on the basis of an actual value, in particular simulated.
- the advantage of the invention is that it not only works with static limit values, but also takes into account according to the invention that the limit values are subject to dynamics, ie can change during operation of the positive displacement pump as a function of changing actual operating parameters.
- a corrected manipulated variable is provided with the aid of first correction means, with which preferably the manipulated variable generated by the controller or an already previously corrected manipulated variable that was generated, for example, by second correction means, is overwritten.
- the corrected manipulated variable assumes the maximum or minimum permissible value, that is to say preferably a first, currently calculated limit value in order to come as close as possible to the reference variable or more precisely the manipulated variable directly resulting from the reference variable.
- the corrected manipulated variable is a quantity covered by a first limit value (preferably a correspondingly limited voltage signal).
- the manipulated variable or a corrected manipulated variable determined by the controller as a function of the reference variable, (for example, a corrected manipulated variable obtained by first correction means)
- the corrected correcting variable output by the first correcting means or a currently calculated comparative value are compared with at least one second limiting value (conveying fluid protection limit value) whose compliance or not exceeding or undershooting is intended to ensure the quality of the conveying fluid. In other words, exceeding or falling below the second limit value (with a defined probability) would impair a predetermined quality parameter of the fluid delivered by the positive displacement pump.
- a corrected manipulated variable is output by second correction means, which is preferably either directly or indirectly in the form of a comparison value to the comparison with the at least one first limit value or as an input variable (target specification) is passed to the frequency converter.
- the manipulated variable generated by the controller or the manipulated variable obtained from upstream further, for example, the first correction means, is preferably overwritten by the corrected manipulated variable of the second correction means.
- the second limit value is not a fixed, stored limit value, but rather a second limit value calculated on the basis of current actual operating parameters, with the actual operating parameters used in the calculation being the first actual Operating parameter, in particular an actual control variable is and additionally to another (further) measured actual operating parameter or an, in particular based on an actual value calculated actual operating parameters.
- a comparison of a manipulated variable, a corrected manipulated variable, a comparison value and / or an actual operating parameter can be carried out with a fixed bainfluid- limit and in case of exceeding or falling below a correction of the manipulated variable or the corrected manipulated variable can be performed.
- a manipulated variable, a corrected manipulated variable or a comparison value either against at least one first (pump protection) limit value or only against a second (conveying fluid protection) limit value or alternatively against both at least one first (pump protection) limit value.
- Limit value and additionally against at least a second (Förderfluidschutz-) limit value which in turn alternatively first against at least a first threshold and then subsequently against at least a second threshold can be compared, or conversely first against a second threshold and subsequently against a first threshold.
- the core of the invention is therefore to assign the controller for generating a manipulated variable logic (logic means), which ensures that the controller output signal (manipulated variable) first with at least a first and / or at least a second limit (pump protection limit and / or bainfluidschutz limit ), wherein the at least one first and the at least one second limit currently, ie is calculated taking into account measured or calculated actual operating parameters and that, in the event that an above or below the at least one first limit value and / or the at least one second limit value is determined, generates a corrected manipulated variable and then this instead of the Controller originally generated manipulated variable or instead of an already previously corrected manipulated variable as an input signal to the frequency converter (frequency converter) is passed, which energizes the positive displacement motor based on this target specification.
- a manipulated variable logic logic
- the logic means in hardware separately from the controller, for example in the form of a microcontroller separate from the controller.
- Preferred is an embodiment in which the controller and the control means are realized by a common microcontroller or comprise a common microcontroller.
- it is particularly preferred if in the calculation of the at least one first limit value and / or the at least one second limit value positive displacement pump-specific parameters, in particular geometry parameters, such as a gap, and / or a spindle diameter are included.
- the logic means several sets of system parameters are stored, which are specific for different positive displacement pumps (ie each record is specific to a positive displacement pump), in particular for different types and Sizes of positive displacement pumps and which can be selected between these data sets, in particular in a basic configuration, for example via a menu control. In this way it is possible to use the same control means in connection with different positive displacement pumps.
- control means allow for the first time possible negative effects at current, changing operating parameters of a reference variable or the effects of a directly resulting from the reference variable manipulated variable on the integrity of the positive displacement pump and / or product quality, ie the quality of the agent the promotion pump funded delivery fluid on the basis of a comparison with a situativ determined, ie to change over time limit and counteract if necessary by recognizing a potential hazard as previously resulting directly from the reference variable, generated by the controller manipulated variable (voltage signal) directly from Frequency converter is converted into a Verdrängerpumpenmotor loftiere or the positive displacement motor is simply turned off by driving a contactor, but instead by a, in particular reduced, od he increased depending on a first operating parameter and another, preferably measured, actual operating parameter calculated corrected manipulated variable (preferably greater than zero) is passed to the frequency converter.
- the corrected manipulated variable is that of the common or alternative provided first and second Grenzenvorgabeschn calculated first and second threshold.
- the physical quantities (parameters) of the pump speed, the delivery fluid viscosity and the delivery fluid pressure are in the following physical relationship, i. are mutually interdependent:
- n pump speed
- the control means take into account all the above parameters for controlling the frequency converter, wherein preferably the pump speed is taken into account in the form of the manipulated variable, the delivery fluid pressure, preferably measured at or in the vicinity of the pressure port or alternatively from other parameters calculated as the first actual operating parameter and the conveying fluid viscosity or a parameter, in particular a fluid parameter to which the conveying fluid viscosity is physically related, in particular the conveying fluid temperature as the second operating parameter, the aforementioned first actual operating parameter, ie the conveying fluid pressure and the further actual Operating parameters preferably the delivery fluid viscosity or the delivery fluid temperature by means of the first limit value setting means are taken into account in order to calculate the first limit, therier falling short of or could cause a defect state of the positive displacement pump.
- the comparison means then compare the control variable output by the controller, ie a speed signal with the first limit value, wherein first correcting means output a corrected manipulated variable, ie a corrected speed signal in the event that the manipulated variable output by the controller, taking into account the conveying fluid pressure and the conveying fluid viscosity or of a parameter related thereto in a functional context is below, wherein it is the corrected manipulated variable, ie the corrected speed signal is preferably the first, previously calculated using the first threshold value setting means limit value.
- a delivery fluid volume flow (or the pump speed reflecting the delivery volume flow) or a delivery fluid pressure are used as reference variables.
- This preferred embodiment does justice to the case that frequently occurs in practice that a rapid change in the disturbance, e.g. a sudden flow resistance change leads to a very rapid change in pressure and thus to a rapid change in the torque requirement at the pump. In the case of a rapid pressure reduction for large pump drives, this would lead to a rapid speed increase.
- An impermissible speed increase can be prevented by taking into account the delivery fluid pressure, preferably measured at the discharge nozzle as a first operating parameter and the direct or indirect consideration of the delivery fluid viscosity as a second operating parameter in the calculation of the first limit, so that damaging the pump fails.
- the conveying fluid pressure, the delivery fluid volume flow or the rotational speed or also the delivery fluid viscosity or a parameter, in particular a fluid parameter, of which the delivery fluid viscosity is directly dependent preferably come into consideration.
- the manipulated variable is preferably the rotational speed or a rotational speed signal, wherein for calculating the limit value, in particular a maximum permissible rotational speed, a delivery fluid volume flow is considered as the first operating parameter and the delivery fluid pressure (in particular measured at the discharge port of the pump) is taken into account as a further actual operating parameter.
- the comparison with the at least one limit value can be realized in different ways.
- the manipulated variable generated by the controller is used for comparison with the first limit value, or alternatively the corrected manipulated variable output by the first correction means or by the optionally provided further, for example second, correction means. It is also possible not to directly use the aforementioned manipulated variable or a corrected manipulated variable for the comparison, but rather a comparison value which is calculated on the basis of a predetermined functional relationship from the manipulated variable or a corrected manipulated variable. In an analogous manner, it is possible to use the manipulated variable generated by the controller for the comparison with the second limit value or a corrected manipulated variable, wherein the corrected manipulated variable may be the corrected manipulated variable output by the first correcting means, if present, or that of the second correction means output corrected correcting variable. It is also possible to calculate a comparison value, eg a current shear rate, on the basis of one of the aforementioned values and to use this for the comparison.
- a comparison value eg a current shear rate
- the logic means may be the manipulated variable generated by the controller, a corrected manipulated variable or a comparison value calculated on the basis of the manipulated variable and / or the corrected manipulated variable or an actual operating parameter, in particular the first actual operating parameter and / or the further actual operating parameter are also compared with at least one for the control means associated positive displacement pump, fixed limit value, wherein in the event that such a limit is exceeded or fallen below by a certain level of correction means, a corrected control variable is output.
- a corrected manipulated variable is output by the correction means, this manipulated variable correction being corrected by first correction means and / or or may be upstream or downstream by second correction means.
- the corrected manipulated variable is a manipulated variable signal increased or reduced by a specific factor, or a manipulated variable signal, the value stored in a memory, or a simulated, calculated value for which an exceeding or falling below the limit value is not to be expected.
- the last-described embodiment of the control means is primarily used to detect a sudden damage or sudden damage of the positive displacement pump. If, for example, an oscillation parameter is monitored by sensor means as the measured actual operating parameter and if it exceeds a limit value stored in a non-volatile memory or preferably alternatively or additionally depending on a further measured or calculated actual parameter, then the manipulated variable corresponding to the reference variable is not passed on but one, for example, reduced by a factor of 2 calculated manipulated variable to operate the positive displacement pump as long as possible without any damage, such as bearing damage occurs or worsens, for which the increased vibration value can be an indication.
- the controller of the control means preferably formed by a microcontroller, there are different possibilities.
- the controller is designed as a PI controller or as a PID controller.
- this first actual operating parameter is a preferably measured, actual controlled variable from the controlled system, in particular a so-called actual main controlled variable, for example an actual pressure of the conveying fluid or an actual pressure difference of the conveying fluid, for example between suction and Pressure side of the positive displacement pump or an actual volume flow of the fluid.
- the first operating parameter is preferably measured, but can alternatively also be simulated or calculated, in particular from a plurality of further actual operating parameters.
- the first and / or second limit value must be calculated not only on the basis of the first actual operating parameter supplied to the controller, but additionally on the basis of a functional relationship on the basis of another (further) actual operating parameter.
- the at least one further actual operating parameter can be a measured auxiliary variable or, in particular, the frequency converter calculated on the basis of an actual value measured, for example a frequency reference of the frequency converter or a nominal torque value of the frequency converter.
- At least one further actual operating parameter is a measured or calculated on the basis of an actual value auxiliary control variable, in particular a speed of the positive displacement motor or a torque of the positive displacement motor. It is also possible for at least one further actual operating parameter to be included in the calculation of the first and / or second limit value and / or in the calculation of a corrected manipulated variable and / or in the calculation of a comparison value by a measured temperature, for example a conveying fluid temperature or a bearing temperature, in particular a rolling bearing of a drive spindle of the positive displacement pump act. It is also possible for the at least one further actual operating parameter to be a measured vibration value. It is also possible for the at least one further actual operating parameter to be a measured or calculated delivery fluid viscosity.
- the at least one further actual operating parameter is a measured leakage quantity. It is particularly preferred if not only the first actual operating parameter and only a single further actual operating parameter are taken into account in the calculation of a limit value or a corrected manipulated variable but, for example, in addition to the first operating parameter, two or even more further, preferably different, actual values. operating parameters ..
- the at least one further operating parameter may be a measured actual controlled variable, for example a measured actual main controlled variable, for example an actual pressure of the conveying fluid, an actual pressure difference or an actual volume flow. Too little pressure at the suction nozzle can be used as a cavitation indicator.
- the delivery fluid viscosity is preferably taken into account, in particular for metrological reasons representative of the viscosity of the delivery fluid whose measured temperature.
- the temperature can therefore be additionally or alternatively monitored by a pressure as actual operating parameters.
- An excess temperature of the conveying fluid can be hazardous to the pump, in particular with regard to a possible bearing damage.
- the engine speed can be taken into account in accordance with a fixed assignment or function which is directly proportional to the positive displacement pump speed (spindle speed), in particular corresponds to this. Too high or too low a speed can also be a risk, especially if further operating parameters, such as the temperature and / or the pressure exceeds or falls below certain limits.

- the manipulated variable Ys generated by the controller is overwritten with the corrected manipulated variable Ys.
- the first correction means 13 and the first limit value specification means 12 can be realized completely separately, ie with their own calculation means, ie in separate functional units.
- the corrected manipulated variable Y's should correspond to a first limit value, in which case, as shown in FIG. 1, limit value specification means 12 and correction means 13 merge with one another, ie have a common calculation routine.
- FIG. 1 will be described with reference to exemplary, non-limiting concrete embodiments.
- the first actual operating parameter X corresponds to the actual controlled variable, in the exemplary embodiment shown a pressure, measured in bar. It is assumed that the reference variable X is a pressure and is initially 20 bar. Likewise, the actual operating parameter X is measured as 20 bar.
- the controller 6 determines a new manipulated variable Y s , in this case a speed-proportional voltage value, which is significantly smaller than in a previous run or in a previous calculation.
- the first threshold value setting means 12 calculates a minimum allowable limit YGrenzmin. This represents in the embodiment shown a minimum allowable speed. Maintaining a minimum permissible speed is desirable in order to avoid the risk of lubricant leakage when this minimum permissible speed is exceeded.
- the minimum permissible speed ie the minimum permissible limit YGrenzmin is calculated based on the following functional relationship:
- Yorenzmax corresponds to the minimum permissible limit value. This is a minimum allowable speed (n ON
- the first actual operating parameter X is in this case the measured controlled variable, here the new actual pressure of 10 bar.
- the factor ⁇ ⁇ is a further operating parameters, namely a measure for the, in particular via a temperature measurement of the conveying fluid certain operating viscosity of the fluid or for the situation influence of viscosity on the maximum allowable pressure. This value is in the illustrated embodiment 10 0 '32 for the particular medium.
- the constant k is the correction value for the lubricity of the medium, this is exemplified by 0.75 for the particular medium.
- the constant b is a correction value for the tribocharging capability of the pump casing. This is in the embodiment shown 1.
- the pump-specific characteristic value c is a characteristic value for the radially loaded rotor diameter. This is for example in the embodiment shown 0.55.
- the minimum permissible limit YGrenzmin is supplied to the first comparison means 10, which compare the control variable Ys determined by the controller 6 with this. In dependence of the comparison, either the manipulated variable Ys determined by the controller is sent to the frequency or a corrected manipulated variable Y 's determined by the first correction means, which is preferably the previously calculated (or recalculated) minimum permissible limit Yorenzmin corresponds.
- the first actual operating parameter X corresponds to the actual controlled variable, here a pressure.
- An actual pressure of 20 bar is measured.
- the setpoint of the controlled variable, ie the reference variable W changes from 20 to 30 bar.
- the disturbance variable there is a change in the disturbance variable. It is assumed that the flow resistance increases, as a result of a smaller flow area, ie a smaller flow diameter, for example, as a result of a tool change.
- the calculation is based on the functional relationship specified in the first embodiment. Since the manipulated variable Ys falls below the minimum permissible limit value Ycrenzmin, ie the minimum permissible rotational speed, a corrected manipulated variable Y ' s is output by the first correcting means 13, which is transmitted to the frequency converter instead of the manipulated variable Ys.
- the corrected manipulated variable Y ' s preferably corresponds to the calculated minimum permissible value
- the reference variable W is a volume flow measured in l / min.
- the first actual operating parameter X is a measured volume flow. It is assumed that the volumetric flow demand increases during operation. In the example shown, the reference value is to double, namely from 1500 l / min to 3000 l / min.
- the controller 6 determines a manipulated variable Ys, here a speed. This manipulated variable Ys, ie from the controller. 6 predetermined speed is compared by the comparison means 10 with a maximum allowable speed, ie a first limit Yorenzmax- This maximum allowable speed is determined based on the NPSH ve available, ie based on the existing NPSH or Haitureruckheimière the system.
- this amounts to 8 mWs (meter of water column).
- Yorenzmax another measured actual operating parameters
- the viscosity of the medium, Yorenzmax that is, the maximum speed determined. This is done by way of example with reference to the diagram shown in FIG. 4 or alternatively via polynomials stored in a non-volatile memory, which are based on the following calculation basis:
- NPSH / (pump size (d a ), lead screw angle, viscosity V, speed n) where from the pump size via the spindle diameter d a and the lead screw angle to the axial velocity of the medium within the pump valid for a certain size and pitch angle can be closed so that there is a simplified relationship:
- Limit max ⁇ zul BG NPSH ⁇ can be produced. It is therefore possible to calculate a permissible pump speed n nd BG for a pump with a specific pump size, a specific spindle pitch angle and a specific NPSH value.
- the water column (mWs) is indicated in meters on the left vertical axis of the NPSH. On the right vertical axis, the speed is given in revolutions per minute. On the horizontal axis, the axial velocity of the fluid is given in m / s.
- the diagram refers to an exemplary pump with a size 20 and a lead angle of the spindle of 56 °.
- the linearly rising line characterizes the axial velocity v ax of the medium (delivery fluid) as a function of the rotational speed.
- the first limit value Yorenzmax ie the maximum permissible rotational speed
- the diagram must move up to the linear line.
- the maximum permissible speed ie the first limit value Yorenzmax
- the maximum permissible speed can then be read on the right vertical axis. This is about 3800 revolutions / min for the measured viscosity, ie the other actual operating parameters.
- the reference variable ie the required volume flow doubles, which is 3000 l / min due to the linear relationship between a manipulated variable change from the assumed 1500 rpm. Since this manipulated variable Y s of 3000 1 / min is smaller than the first limit YGrenzmax of about 3800 1 / min, the manipulated variable Ys can be transmitted to the frequency converter 4 as an input variable.
- the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2 differs from the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1 only in that the manipulated variable Ys generated by the controller 6 is not compared with at least one first limit value ensuring or representing the positive displacement pump protection, but with at least one second, the delivery fluid quality ensuring limiting value. In the exemplary embodiment shown, this is a second limit value.
- the at least one second limit value Yorenzmax, Ycrenzmin ensures compliance with the delivery fluid quality.
- a single, maximum second threshold Ycrenzmax is provided by second threshold presetting means 15, alternatively providing a plurality of second threshold values, e.g. in addition, a minimum limit value Yorenzmin that can be calculated to ensure the delivery fluid quality.
- second comparison means 16 compare whether the manipulated variable Y s generated by the controller 6 or a manipulated variable already corrected in a preceding further correction procedure not included here exceeds the second limit value Yorenzmin by a certain amount. If the manipulated variable Ys is less than or equal to the maximum limit value, the manipulated variable Y s generated by the controller 6 or supplied to the comparison means 16 is made available (calculated) to the frequency converter 4.
- the second limit value specification means 15 take into account the first actual operating parameter X and at least one further (other) actual operating parameter, for example an auxiliary manipulated variable Y H , an auxiliary controlled variable X H and / or a skin manipulated variable Y H H. Also it is feasible that in the calculation additionally take into account geometry parameters GP of the positive displacement pump and / or delivery fluid parameters FP, as well as the vibration.
- the fourth example concerns the protection of the medium, i.
- the second limit value is determined such that the manipulated variable does not result in a negative impairment of a quality parameter of the delivery fluid (delivery medium) conveyed by the positive displacement pump.
- the second limit value corresponds to a maximum permissible speed.
- the first operating parameter X is a volume flow of the process line.
- the determination of the second limit value includes functional conditions of the pump, i. Speed relationships are taken into account, namely the angular velocity difference of the rotating positive displacement rotors (spindles) relative to the stationary pump housing.
- the velocity ratios in the columns are directly proportional to the pump speed and there is an inversely directly proportional relation to the size of the function gap, i. to the current linear shear rate.
- This function gap depends on the one hand on pump-specific conditions, namely on the present actual radial gap, i. from the fixed pump rotor radial play and also from current operating conditions, namely the current pressure load (delivery fluid pressure) and the respective current viscosity of the delivery fluid.
- the latter two further actual operating parameters are measured and found in the calculation of the second limit Yorenzmax, i. considered in the calculation of the maximum permissible speed.
- a delivery fluid having a dynamic viscosity ⁇ of 5 Pas is delivered.
- D ZU a maximum permissible shear rate
- the maximum permissible speed therefore corresponds to the limit value Y Gn
- control means 5 are designed such that the manipulated variable Ys output by the controller 6 has both at least one first limit value (pump protection limit value) and at least one second limit (medium protection limit) can be compared.
- the control variable Y s generated by the controller 6 is first compared with a first and then with a second threshold, wherein the reverse arrangement is of course feasible, ie, that first with a second and then with a first Limit value is compared.
- the output value of the first comparison forms the input variable for the second comparison, wherein the output variable of the first comparison can be the uncorrected manipulated variable Y s , namely in the first comparison there is no limit value overshoot or undershoot and thus Y s is not corrected or alternatively by a manipulated variable Y's corrected by the first comparison means 10.
- Ys or Y ' s are then the input variables for the second comparison means 16. If no correction is made here, the input value for the second comparison Y s or Y' s is sent to the frequency converter 4 or, in the case of a correction, the corrected manipulated variable Y s .
- first and second decision-making means 20, 21 are provided in which it is determined whether a pump protection comparison or a medium protection comparison is to be carried out.
- the respective decision can be predefined by software, for example, so that the user can alternatively only implement a pump protection comparison or a medium protection comparison, or both comparison operations.
- the manipulated variable is a speed signal for the pump, the pump speed being plotted in the diagram on the left vertical axis.
- the delivery pressure measured at the discharge nozzle of the pump, flows into the calculation of the first limit value, the delivery fluid pressure being plotted on the right vertical axis.
- the delivery fluid viscosity (medium viscosity) flows into the calculation of the first limit value as a further actual operating parameter, the medium viscosity being plotted on the horizontal lower axis.
- the delivery fluid volume flow or the pump speed or the delivery fluid pressure into consideration. In the specific embodiment, it is assumed that the delivery fluid pressure is the reference variable.
- the conveying fluid viscosity due to a corresponding medium change from 12mm 2 / s to 9 mm 2 / s, to 6 mm 2 / s, to 4 mm 2 / s and then (stepwise) up to 2mm 2 / s drops.
- the delivery fluid volume flow may fluctuate.
- the reference variable ie the process pressure (delivery fluid pressure) should initially be kept at 10bar, then increase to 20bar, etc., ie incrementally by 10bar each to a maximum of 50bar. In other words, the reference variable gradually changes from initially 10bar to 50bar.
- the controller outputs a manipulated variable (Y s ) as a function of the reference variable (W).
- the first limit value specification means calculate a first limit value, in the present case a minimum rotational speed Yorenzmin as a function of the first actual operating parameter, here the delivery fluid pressure and the further actual operating parameter, here the medium viscosity, wherein in the concrete exemplary embodiment the medium viscosity is determined indirectly via the delivery fluid temperature.
- the comparison means compare the control variable predetermined by the controller, ie a speed signal with the first limit value calculated by the first limit value specification means. If the manipulated variable in the illustrated embodiment is above this first limit value, the manipulated variable is forwarded to the frequency converter as an input signal.
- a corrected manipulated variable is determined or determined as an input signal in the embodiment shown and passed on to the frequency converter as a corrected manipulated variable in the embodiment shown by the first correction means passing on the first limit value determined by the limit value specification means.
