L. L. VAYDA 5 AND APPARATUS FOR ANALYZING GASES PROCES Filed March 30, 1952 Patented Sept. 1, 1936 UNITED sTA'rss osrics PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR- ANALYZING GASES Louis L. Vayda, Aspinwall, Pa., assignor to Bacharach Industrial Instrument Company, a corporation of Pennsylvania The invention relates to a process and apparatus for measuring, or testing, the combustible content of a gas. The gas to be analyzed, or
tested, is ordinarily a gas of combustion in order to determine the efficiency of the apparatus in which the gas is consumed, and the illustration and description are directed, to the use of the apparatus in this relation, but it will be understood that the invention is not limited to use in this connection and is applicable to the measurement of gases other than gases of combustion. The apparatus operates on the principle of that shown in the patent to Max Moeller No. M 1,562,243, wherein the temperature of a catalyzing wire, as afiected by a gas burned adjacent thereto is used as the determining factor is ascertaining the percentage of combustible in the gas tested. The principal objects of the invention are: v S250 (1) The provision of a process and apparatus in which the time lag (i. e. interval ensuing between the time the gas leaves the point of sampling until the analysis is indicated) is re.- duced to a minimum. =25 (2) The provision of a process and apparatus in which the analyzing cell and accessory. parts are under pressure which renders the analysis free from the effects of leaks in the system. (3) And the provision of an apparatus, which 30 is extremely cheap and simple, as compared-with the equipment heretofore used; which requires little skill to operate, which is so compact that it may be made portable, and in which no water inlet and drain piping are necessary. 35 1 One embodiment of the apparatus employe is shown in the accompanying drawingwherein: The figure is a diagrammatic elevation view with certain of the parts in section, the apparatus being shown as applied to the exhaust 40 .of a motor vehicle, which is regarded as the most important field of use of the apparatus, and one to which it is particularly adapted. The analyzing unit comprises the gas analyzing chamber I; the comparison chamber 2; there- 45 sistance elements Ia and 2a of platinum alloy or other material which acts as a catalytic agent in the operation of the device; and the Wheatstone bridge electric circuit; as shown, including the fixed resistances 3, 3, the galvanometer 4, '50 the battery 5, the rheostat 6 and the ammeter '1, these elements together making up an apparatus well known in the art. The galvanometer 4, calibrated directly in terms of combustible .to be analyzed, measures the change in potential 535 across the Wheatstone bridge, caused by variations in the temperature of the platinum alloy wire Ia (forming one leg of the Wheatstone bridge), the temperature of which in turn is varied by burning of combustible gas along its length. Any other suitable source of current 5 may be used in place of the battery, such as the source which supplies the current for operating the motor of the fan or blower later described. The rheostat 6 gives. an adjustment so as to provide constant current as indicated by the 10 ammeter I.
The apparatus which cooperates with the analyzing unit, andto which the invention particularly relates comprises the flexible metallic pipe 8 for receiving the gases of combustion from the exhaust pipe 9 of a combustion motor; the pressure relief and cooling chamber I 0 the flexible pipe II; and the electric fan I2 having the suction inlet I3 and the discharge outlet I4 which latter has two branches I5 and I 6, the 2 0 branch I5 discharging into the analyzing chamber i, while the branch I6 discharges over the exterior of the chambers I and 2.
The gases to be analyzed for combustible content, issue under pressure from the exhaust pipe 9 of the motor vehicle into which a small sampling pipe I! carried by the end of the pipe 8 extends. Apart of the exhaust gases are carried through the sampling pipe into the hose 8, which because of its composition, length and diameter dissipate heat, thereby cooling the gases to a certain extent and condensing a proportionate amount of the water vapor carried with such gases. The gases flow from the hose into the pressure relief chamber It, being admitted in a manner to promote eddy currents which tend to separate out the carbon oil and water particles. The chamber has a large relief outlet I8 to permit the escape of surplus gas and condensed water, so that the pressure in the chamber is practically atmospheric under all conditions. The relief chamber is made relatively large and provided with fins to promote additional cooling of the gases and secure a corresponding condensation of the moisture carried by'the gases. The motor driven fan I2 creates a certain amount of suction on its inlet side which serves to draw a measured portion of the gases from the relief chamber In through the conduits II and I3, the amount of gas drawn into the fan being-governed by the orifice i9 and the suction created by the fan. An air inlet orifice isalso provided at 20 to admit a measured volume of atmospheric air, such airbeing required in order to catalytically burn the combustible content of the gases when they are supplied through the chamber l as later described. The volume of diluting air as compared with the gas is preferably 10 to 12 times the volume of gas, although this may be varied under rather wide limits depending on conditions.
The mixture of gas and air entering the fan is compressed by the centrifugal action of the fan to a pressure of several inches of water (the extent of such pressure being regulated by the orifices in the outlet conduits leading from the fan as later described). In addition the design of the fan is such that in centriiugally compressing the mixture of gas and air the temperature of such mixture is raised from 40 to 60 degrees R, such rise in temperature being of importance as later pointed out. The mixture of gas and air is discharged from the conduit l4 through the two branches [5 and I6 which are provided with the orifices 25 and 2|. The sizes of these orifices govern the pressure produced by the fan. The conduit I5 is provided with an enlargement 22 filled with cotton to filter the mixture of gas and air and guard the orifice 25 from clogging. The mixture supplied the cell i by the conduit [5 discharges through the outlet 24. The conduit 16 has a flared end 23 in opposition to the chambers l and 2 so that during the operation of the apparatus a stream of heated gas and air is discharged over the exteriors of the chambers. As a result the chambers are kept at a temperature such that no condensation will occur on the interior thereof and thus adversely afi'ect the insulation in the chambers. Since the chamber 2 is employed for comparison, the external temperature condition to which this chamber is exposed should be substantially parallel to that of the chamber I, so that it is subject to the same heating effect,
While the equipment is shown as taking a sample from the exhaust pipe of an automobile, it can be utilized as well to analyze for combustible content, any gas under pressure at the point of sampling. On the other hand, if the gas to be analyzed is under suction, the vent I8 must be closed, since no opening in the gas conveying system between the point of sampling and the analyzing equipment can be permitted. In this latter case the relief chamber may be omitted entirely since its main function, namely pressure relief, can not 'be used. It will always be necessary, however, to provide some means of cooling and condensing the excess moisture from the gas sample.
The advantages of the apparatus will be apparent from the foregoing. Due to the use of a large volume of gas, the movement of the gas from the point of sampling to the point of analyzing is rapid, so that the time lag is much less than in apparatus heretofore used. The handling of the large volume of gas requires relatively arge pipes or orifices as compared with those heretofore used. This means that the parts are of rugged construction and the orifices of such size that danger of clogging is avoided. This is a very important consideration. The apparatus also keeps the analyzing cell and accessory parts under a substantial degree of pressure due to the compressive action of the fan so that trouble incident to leaks in the system is avoided. Any danger of condensation in the analyzing cell incident to the cooling of heated gases is avoided by the use of the heating expedient by which the mixture of gas and air are heated by the fan and the main portion thereof is discharged over the exterior of the chambers or cells. The apparatus is also much simplified as compared with the apparatus heretofore used for the same purpose. It is readily portable and dispenses with the water inlet and drain piping heretofore employed.
