- RADIATION SENSITIVE FLUID ANALYZER fluid such as, but not limited to, opacity, turbidity, the [75] Inventor: Richard B0, Alliance Ohio concentration of particulate matter. in the fluid, the
- the transmitting and receiving units of such devices are usually isolated from the fluid by means of isolating windows through which the radiation is transmitted and received.
- such devices are subject to error due primarily to deterioration ofthe radiation source and phototransducer and fouling of the isolating window.
- Various means have been employed for compensating for such errors, such as, providing a compensating phototransducer adjacent to the radiation source and continuously or intermittently washing the faces of the isolating windows exposed to the fluid.
- Such expediences do not provide complete compensation for the errors as the compensating phototransducer compensates only for degradation of the radiation source and not for changes in the input-output characteristics of the phototransducers.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of an analyzer embodying the principles of my invention showing a typical in-situ application and in block diagram a typical computing circuit which may be used therewith.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic illustration showing a typical application of the analyzer as a turbidimeter.
- FIG. 1 there is shown a duct or stack 2 through which waste gases flow in the direction of the arrow, having sides, identified for convenience as the A side and the B side.
- a transmitter-receiver unit generally indicated at 4
- a symetrical transmitter-receiver unit mounted on the B side.
- transmitter-receiver unit 4 components incorporated in the transmitter-receiver unit 4 are identified by a numeral followed by a letter A, whereas similar components in the transmitter-receiver unit 6 are identified by the same numeral followed by the letter B.
- a radiation source such as a lamp 8A, radiation from which during the half cycle of operation, when the unit is operating as a transmitter, (as indicated by the dashed line directional) passes through a beamsplitter 10A, through a V-shaped window 12A, the stack gases present in duct 2, V-shaped window 128 and is reflected by beamsplitter 10B onto a phototransducer 228.
- radiation from lamp 8A is diverted by beamsplitter 10A, to a mirror 14A, thence to a mirror 16A, through window 12A to a mirror 18A, thence to a beamsplitter 20A and thence to a phototransducer 22A.
- a side transmitter-receiver unit 4 is a transmitter 10 AMA WA2I10 s, BM W,,W,,1 e Y L Where:
- B side transmitter-receiver unit 6 is a transmitter 2 AME
- the turbidity is obtained completely independent of the window transmission factors, W A and W independent of the phototransducer sensitivities, A and B and independent of the lamp intensities, I and I Moreover the third term on the right hand side of equation (9) is a constant whose value will remain fixed over long periods of time inasmuch as the transmitterreceiver units may readily be constructed so as to substantially hermetically seal the interior of the units from ambient conditions.
- FIG. 1 Shown in FIG. 1 is one form of computing circuit which may be used to automatically compute either the total or specific turbidity ('yL) or (y) from the output signals 5,, S S and S
- the radiation sources 8A and 8B are connected to a power supply and control unit 32 which during one-half cycle of operation energizes the source 8A and during the other one-half cycle energizes the source 8B.
- a power supply and control unit 32 which during one-half cycle of operation energizes the source 8A and during the other one-half cycle energizes the source 8B.
- phototransducers 22A and 22B generate output signals S and S respectively.
- source 8B is energized phototransducers 22A and 22B generate output signals S and S respectively.
- control impulses are simultaneously sent along lines 34, 36 from the power supply and control unit 32 indicating the source energized.
- the signals generated by phototransducer 22A input to a logarithmic amplifier 46, whereas the signals gen- 4 erated by phototransducer 22B input to a logarithmic amplifier 48.
- the output signals from logarithmic amplifier 46 are applied along line 50 to storage registers 52 and 54.
- the registers 52 and 54 are connected through lines 56, 58 respectively to a difference amplifier 60 connected to an algebraic summing amplifier 62 by way of line 64.
- the output signals from logarithmic amplifier 48 are applied along the line 66 to storage registers 68 and 70.
- Registers 68 and 70 are also connected to the power supply and control unit 32 through lines 36 and 34 respectively.
- the registers 68 and 70 are connected through lines 72 and 74 respectively to a difference amplifier 76, connected to algebraic summing amplifier 62 by way of line 78.
- the output signal from algebraic summing amplifier 62 may be transmitted to an indicating, recording and/or controlling device such as shown at 80.
- the algebraic summing amplifier 62 may be provided with a calibration input 82 which may be used to adjust for the third term on the right hand side of equation (9), which heretofor has been related to be a constant whose value will remain fixed over long periods of time.
- the logarithms of the values of unabsorbed radiation from radiation sources 8A and 8B are stored in registers 52 and 70, and the values of the logarithms of absorbed radiation from radiation sources 8A and 8B are stored in registers 68 and 54.
- the registers 52, 54 provide the inputs to the difference amplifier 60, while the registers 68, 70 provide the inputs to the difference amplifier 76.
- the outputs of the amplifiers 60, 76 provide the inputs to the summing amplifier 62.
- the amplifier 62 thus provides an output signal along line 84 that is in functional relationship to the turbidity of the flue gases.
- the radiation sources 8A and 8B may be selected to emit predominantly radiation having a wave length compatible with the fluid characteristic to be determined.
- the sources could be incandescent, hollow cathode or mercury arc lamps.
- radiation sources having wave length characteristics close to those of the human eye could be selected so that the analyzer would indicate a smoke opacity approximating that determined by an observer.
- the transmitted wave length band can be, if desired, further defined by optical filters such as shown at 24A and 24B.
- Collimating lenses such as shown at 26A, 26B would normally be employed to produce a radiation beam of substantially parallel rays.
- well known expediencies may be incorporated in the transmitterreceiver units such as the lens-pinhole arrangement comprising lenses 28A, 28B and pinholes 30A and 30B disposed at the focal points of the lenses to limit the viewing angles of the associated phototransducers.
- a fluid sampler 88 which may be a container if a static fluid sample is being analyzed, or a pipe or duct. if a flowing fluid is being analyzed in-situ.
- a fluid sampler 88 Secured to the wall of the sampler 88 at an angle 0 to each other (usually 90), are transmitter-receiver units 4 and 6 with the windows 12A and 12B exposed to the sampled fluid through suitable openings in sampler 88.
- the unit 4 When the unit 4 is operating as a transmitter, the unit 6 receives scattered light from the sampled fluid and vice versa. The turbidity of the fluid and then be determined from the output signals of phototransducers 22A and 22B.
- equations (2) and (3) do not apply.
- the factor e 7 L would be replaced by a function of turbidity, which may be designated at f('y).
- logarithmic processing would produce an output that, in general, is not linear to specific turbidity, but is usually proportional to I n
- the computing circuit described above may be arranged to generate an output signal proportional to f (y) in accordance with the following equation.
- transmitter-receiver units can function either as a transmitter or receiver, and when functioning as a transmitter, radiation source intensity, changes in window transparency and phototransducer sensitivity are monitored by the phototransducer.
- a pair of symetrical transmitterreceiver units each comprising a housing, a radiation source disposed within said housing, an opening in one wall of said housing, a window closing said opening and forming a cavity having transparent walls through which radiation from the source is transmitted through the fluid to the other of the units, a phototransducer disposed within the housing, means diverting radiation from the source through the window to the phototransducer without passing through the fluid between said units, and means directing radiation received through the fluid from the other of said units through said window to said phototrandsucer, the combination further comprising means for alternately and cyclically energizing the radiation source in each of said units to cause each of said units to cyclically and alternately act as a transmitter and then as a receiver whereby the phototransducer receives radiation from the radiation source in the unit when operating as a transmitter and from the radiation source in the other of said units when operating as a receiver.
- the means diverting radiation from the source through the window without passing through the fluid between said units comprises a first beamsplitter disposed in the path of the radiation from the source to the window, an optical system directing the diverted radiation through the window onto a second beamsplitter directing the diverted radiation onto the phototransducer.
- An analyzer as set forth in claim 4 further including a lens and pinhole located between the second beamsplitter and phototransducer, said pinhole located at the focal point of said lens.
- a analyzer as set forth in claim 3 wherein said first beamsplitter diverts radiation from the source in a direction at right angles to the radiation from said source, and said optical system comprises a first mirror directing the diverted radiation in a direction parallel to the radiation from said source, a second mirror then directing said diverted radiation in reverse direction but parallel to the radiation diverted by said first beamsplitter through said window onto a third mirror directing the diverted radiation in reverse direction but parallel to the radiation from said source onto said second beamsplitter.
