Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a replacement built-in set for a volume flow sensor based on the principle of measuring the differential pressure existing via a throttle, which is already installed at the measuring site.

The invention furthermore relates to an eddy flow sensor which is realized by replacement with a built-in set or which is already manufactured on the factory side according to this replacement principle.

A volume flow sensor based on a measurement principle of measuring a differential pressure existing through a throttle is widely used in flow measurement technology (Chemical Engineering, quarterly magazine, May 1996, p. 94). To page 102).
The volumetric flow sensor has a standardized thickness and a standardized inner diameter and is fluid tightly clamped between a first conduit and a second conduit through which the fluid to be measured flows. It has an apertured disk. Tightening is usually performed with two flanges. One of these flanges is attached to the end of the first conduit and the other is attached to the end of the second conduit facing said one flange. Details will be described later again with reference to FIG.

[0004] The constriction disk has a smaller inside diameter than the conduit. A hole provided in the first conduit near the restrictor disc,
It is operatively connected to a first pressure sensor for the fluid pressure upstream of the throttle disk. A bore provided in the second conduit near the throttle disk is operatively connected to a second pressure sensor for fluid pressure downstream of the throttle disk.

[0005] In many cases, the hole in the first conduit will be
On the flange assigned to the conduit, the hole of the second conduit is on the flange belonging to said conduit, as described above.

It is also common to have compact versions in which the pressure-extraction holes, the pressure sensors and the associated evaluation electronics with the housing are integrated with one another.

The throttle disk has a smaller inner diameter than both conduits and forms a constriction in the flow passage, so that when the fluid flows through this throttle, it complies with the Vernoil law. As a result, a pressure difference is generated. From this pressure difference, a volume flow proportional to the square root of the quotient of the pressure difference to the fluid density is determined.

In such a reference diaphragm-volume flow sensor, the achievable measurement accuracy is only about 2%.
Of course, this is only achieved if the same flow profile always occurs at the measuring point as far as possible. This requires a long inflow or outflow section before or after the measuring point. That is, a sufficiently long, straight pipe section must be provided to stabilize the flow profile. Further, the measurement range is limited to about 1: 3.

Further, the diaphragm disk is easily affected by dirt. This is because this changes the free effective cross section of the diaphragm disk and causes measurement errors. Furthermore, the inner edge of the constriction disk may be eroded by solid particles carried by the fluid, and the effective cross-section may gradually increase. Therefore, the long-term stability of the measurement accuracy is not sufficient.

Furthermore, as a result of the restriction of the flow path by the restriction disk, in the shaded area directly behind the restriction disk, for example, solids in the fluid are formed by the restriction disk and the wall of the second conduit. A flow morphology is formed that will disadvantageously accumulate in the defined angular range.

Furthermore, the narrowing of the flow passages by the throttle disk causes considerable residual pressure losses in the fluid.

[0012]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the invention is achieved in that the above-mentioned disadvantages and an improvement in the measurement inaccuracies are achieved while maintaining as far as possible the components already installed, which have been modified by the principle of differential pressure measurement. It is to make it.

[0013]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a replacement built-in set for a flow sensor installed at a measurement site, comprising: Flow through the first conduit and the second conduit
A thickness-standardized diaphragm plate which is fluid tightly clamped between said conduits and has a smaller inside diameter than said conduits; and-a hole provided in said first conduit near said diaphragm plate. A first pressure sensor operatively coupled to the diaphragm plate to detect a fluid pressure in front of the diaphragm plate; and the diaphragm plate operatively coupled to a hole provided in the second conduit near the diaphragm plate. A second pressure sensor for detecting the fluid pressure behind the diaphragm, wherein the replacement built-in set:-replaces the diaphragm plate, has the same thickness as the diaphragm plate, and has an inner diameter of It has a ring disk which is the same as the inner diameter of the conduit, and only one blocking body is arranged on the inner diameter of the ring disk, and the blocking body has at most the same thickness as the ring disk in the flow direction. -After removing the first pressure sensor,
A device for fluid-tightly closing said hole in the conduit of the vortex sensor; and a vortex sensor for fluid-tight insertion into said hole of said second conduit after removing said second pressure sensor;
It was solved by having.

In addition to the disadvantages mentioned above, it is possible, according to a second aspect of the present invention, to improve the measurement accuracy while maintaining as far as possible components already installed or modified according to the differential pressure measurement principle. A replacement built-in set for a flow sensor installed on site, comprising: a first conduit and a second conduit through which a fluid to be measured flows.
A thickness-standardized diaphragm plate which is fluid tightly clamped between said conduits and has a smaller inside diameter than said conduits; and-a hole provided in said first conduit near said diaphragm plate. A first pressure sensor operatively coupled to the diaphragm plate to detect a fluid pressure in front of the diaphragm plate; and the diaphragm plate operatively coupled to a hole provided in the second conduit near the diaphragm plate. A second pressure sensor for detecting the fluid pressure behind the diaphragm, wherein the replacement built-in set:-replaces the diaphragm plate, has the same thickness as the diaphragm plate, and has an inner diameter of It has a ring disk which is the same as the inner diameter of the conduit, and only one blocking body is arranged on the inner diameter of the ring disk, and the blocking body has at most the same thickness as the ring disk in the flow direction. -After removing the first pressure sensor,
A device for fluid-tightly closing said hole in the conduit of the first device;-a device for fluid-tightly closing said hole in the second conduit after removing said second pressure sensor; This was achieved by having a vortex flow sensor mounted in or outside the two conduits near the ring disk.

A third aspect of the invention is characterized in that the eddy flow sensor comprises: a first conduit through which the fluid to be measured flows and a second conduit;
A ring disk having the same inner diameter as the inner diameters of the two conduits, the only inner diameter being disposed on the inner diameter, and having a predetermined thickness. Has at most the same thickness as the ring disk; and having, outside or within the second conduit, a vortex sensor mounted near the ring disk.

According to the first advantageous configuration of the second invention of the present invention and the first advantageous configuration of the third invention of the present invention, the eddy current sensor has a fluid inside the pipe wall of the second conduit. It has a tightly inserted and capacitive sensor member.

According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the eddy current sensor comprises two ultrasonic transducers fixed diametrically to the wall of the second conduit.

The common idea of the three inventions of the present invention is to replace the inaccurate, defective throttle / differential pressure measurement principle with a highly accurate, long-term stable eddy current measurement principle at the installation site. The goal is to use as few new components as possible.

This, in which the first advantage of the present invention can be found, is that the throttle disk is replaced by a ring disk of the present invention with an associated damper, and both pressure sensors are used. This was achieved simply by closing the unnecessary holes of the pressure sensor, which were replaced by the eddy current sensor according to the invention, in a fluid-tight manner.

Another advantage is that, in the present invention, the measuring range is greater than 1: 3, ie always greater than 1:10. The average value is, for example, 1:10 for gas, 1:30 for vapor, and 1:40 for liquid.

Another advantage is that the present invention does not measure the value of the differential pressure, but rather measures the eddy current frequency at which zero calibration is not required.

Furthermore, since undesired cavitation always occurs at a higher flow rate than the reference throttle, a higher flow rate is allowed. This is particularly important in the case of liquids with a high vaporization pressure, for example benzene.
