Definitions
- the present invention relates to a mass flow controller, and more particularly to a mass flow measuring sensor which can constantly maintain the temperature of a heating coil installed on the outer peripheral surface of the sample flowing tube by providing a heating coil controlling unit separately, thereby remarkably improving a linear flux range and measurement accuracy, and a mass flow controller having the same.
- a mass flow controller is designed to measure flux of a fluid flowing in various channels and control flowing of a fluid according to the measured value, and is widely used in many industrial fields including semiconductor industry, etc.
- the method for measuring flux of a fluid flowing through the channel can be largely classified into 1) a method for measuring volume flux and 2) a method for measuring mass flux.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic, cross-sectional view of a mass flow controller using the conventional thermal measuring method.
- the conventional mass flow controller 100 includes: a mass flux measuring sensor 120 for measuring mass flux flowing through a channel 110; a valve operator 160 and a valve 130 for changing the opening of the channel 110 to control mass flux flowing through the channel 110; a controlling unit 140 for detecting mass flux measured by the mass flux measuring sensor 120, and transmitting an electrical signal to the valve operator 160 so that the opening of the channel 110 may be controlled.
- the mass flux measuring sensor 120 includes: a sample flowing tube 121 connected to the channel 110 for passing a predetermined portion of a fluid flowing through the channel 110 therethrough; a heating coil 122 wound around the outer periphery of the sample flowing tube 121, for converting electric energy provided from a power source 170 into heat energy to act as a heat source which heats a sample fluid flowing through the sample flowing tube 121; a first temperature sensing coil 123 wound around the outer periphery of the sample flowing tube 121 in the upstream of the heating coil 122, for functioning as a temperature measuring device for measuring a temperature of the upstream of the sample fluid; and a second temperature sensing coil 124 wound around the outer periphery of the sample flowing tube 121 in the downstream of the heating coil 122, for functioning as a temperature measuring device for measuring a temperature of the downstream of the sample fluid.
- the electrical signal that corresponds to the temperature of the sample fluid at the upstream is obtained at the first temperature sensing coil 123 and the ' electrical signal that corresponds
- the sample flowing tube 121 of the mass flux measuring sensor 120 is connected to the channel 110 in such a way that its upper end is connected to the lateral wall of the channel 110 in a passing through manner and its lower end is connected to the lateral wall of the channel 110 in a passing through manner at the downstream compared to the upper end.
- the sample fluid flows out of the lower end.
- a flow guider such as a laminar device 150 is provided to the inner side of the channel 110 so that flowing line of the fluid passing by without passing through the sample flowing tube 121 may be changed.
- FIG. 2 schematically shows the principle for measuring mass flux using a temperature difference at the mass flux measuring sensor 120 shown in FIG. 1.
- the electrical signals that correspond to the identical temperature are obtained at the first and the second temperature sensing coils 123, 124.
- the electrical signals that correspond to a temperature difference AT are obtained respectively at the first and the second temperature sensing coils 123, 124.
- Such temperature difference AT is generated because the sample fluid introducing from the upstream is heated by absorbing a part of heat from the heating coil 122 while passing by the neighborhood of the heating coil 122 and the heated sample fluid moves to the downstream. Namely, the temperature difference AT is caused by convection phenomenon due to movement of the sample fluid in the inside of the sample flowing tube.
- the temperature difference AT of the sample fluid is in functional relation with a heat flux Q provided from the heat source and the mass flux of the sample fluid passing through the sample flowing tube 121 heated by the heat flux Q. Therefore, as shown in the following [formula 1], the mass flux m of the sample fluid flowing through the sample flowing tube 121 can be calculated from a specific heat C p of the sample fluid, the heat flux Q applied by the heat source, and the temperature difference AT of the sample fluid obtained from the electrical signals provided from the first and the second temperature sensing coils 123, 124. Also, the total mass flux passing through the channel 110 is calculated by multiplying the mass flux of the sample fluid passing through the sample flowing tube 121 by the ratio of mass flux of the sample fluid to the mass flux passing through the laminar device 150. [Formula 1]
- the heat flux provided from the heat source is maintained constantly and the controlling unit 140 transmits a valve operating signal to the valve operator 160 'in response to the temperature difference or the resistance difference between the upstream and the downstream of the sample fluid obtained by the electrical signals from the first and the second temperature sensing coils 123, 124, and the valve operator 160 controls mass flux flowing through the channel by operating the valve 130 and . adjusting the opening of the channel 110 according to the valve operating signal.
- a general single tube type sample flowing tube is widely used as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, but there is also used the mass flux measuring sensor having a double tube type sample flowing tube, such that an inner tube 51 is provided in parallel lengthwise, with respect to the sample flowing tube 50, at the inside of the sample flowing tube 50 so that the channel of the sample flowing tube 50 forms a circular channel 58 and a linear flux range is extended remarkably compared to the case of the single tube type sample flowing tube, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4.
- the mass flux measuring, sensor using such a double tube type is disclosed in detail in the Korean Patent Application Nos. 10-2001-81357, 10-2002-14257, 10-2002- 26202, 10-2002-79262, which have been filed by the applicant of the present invention.
- the mass flux measuring sensor of the conventional mass flux controller has such construction that the heating coil wound around the outside of the sample flowing tube, for heating the sample fluid, supplies a predetermined heat flux constantly and measures the mass flux value using the temperature difference (or resistance difference) between the upstream and the downstream of the sample flowing tube generated while the sample fluid is flowing in the inside of the sample flowing tube.
- FIG. 5 is a graph showing a change in temperature difference between the first and the second temperature sensing coils with respect to a change in mass flux m in the conventional single tube type mass flux measuring sensor. As shown from the graph of FIG. 5, linear change appears only at some region in the initial stage (within about 5 ⁇ 10sccm) , and non-linear change appears in the rest region beyond that initial stage.
- the mass flux controller detects a mass flux value of the sample fluid passing through the sample flowing tube within the linear flux range of the mass flux measuring sensor, and calculates the whole flux using the ratio of mass flux of the sample fluid to the mass flux passing through the laminar device of the channel .
- the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems of the mass flux controller using the narrow linear flux range of the conventional mass flux measuring sensor, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a mass flux controller which can constantly maintain the position of the maximum temperature and the change in the maximum temperature due to movement of the sample fluid in • the inside of the sample flowing tube, which is the most principal factor causing non-linearity in the relation of a change in temperature difference according to a change in mass flux in the mass flux measuring ' sensor, even in the case where the sample fluid is moved in the inside of the sample flowing tube, thereby remarkably increasing the linear flux range of' the mass flux measuring sensor, improving measurement accuracy and measurement precision of the mass flux controller, and accomplishing stability of the system.
- the present invention controls the supply of the power source so that the temperature (or the resistance) of the heating coil wound around the outer peripheral surface of the sample flowing tube, for heating the sample fluid, may be maintained constantly at a predetermined temperature (or resistance) by separately providing a heating coil controlling unit to a mass flux controller.
- the sample fluid at room temperature that has introduced from the upstream of the sample flowing tube is heated by absorbing a part of heat from the heating coil while passing through the vicinity of the heating coil, and the heated sample fluid moves to the downstream, emits heat to the outside, and is cooled down again. Due to such convection phenomenon by movement of the sample fluid, heat loss is generated at the heating coil, whereby the temperature of the heating coil is lowered.
- the heating coil controlling unit functions to control the power source in such a way that the temperature (or resistance) of the heating coil may be maintained constantly at a predetermined temperature (or resistance) in the case where the temperature (or resistance) of the heating coil is changed due to the convection phenomenon as descried above .
