Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for the acoustic coupling of ultrasonic clamp-on fürflußmessköpfen on pipelines high temperature (above 150 0 C).
- the determination of the flow of liquid and gaseous media is in industry and measurement of far-reaching importance.
- Ultrasonic clamp-on systems such as described in DE 41 14 233 C2, work completely free of interference.
- the two ultrasonic measuring heads are strapped onto the pipe wall from the outside and thus have no direct contact with the measuring medium and do not influence the flow.
- the angle between sound propagation direction and flow direction of the measuring medium is determined by the law of refraction and the angle of incidence and the speed of sound of the measuring head.
- the transitions between the different materials of the measuring head, the pipe wall and the measuring medium are parallel to each other.
- Sin S 1 is the same size according to the law of refraction in all involved media i.
- the measured flow velocity is therefore the quotient
- the measuring heads are in the aforementioned ultrasonic clamp-on
- the measuring head adopts the media or pipe temperature due to the direct heat transfer between pipe wall and measuring head.
- OE 41 24 692 A1 a special measuring head for use on hot objects is described, which is characterized by the use of temperature-resistant materials.
- the measuring head is also heated accordingly.
- the associated high thermal stress leads to premature aging and inoperability of the measuring heads, e.g. by depolarizing the piezoceramics commonly used as sound transducers. Even the mentioned measuring heads for hot objects are not permanently able to cope with this strain.
- the high-temperature probe proposed in US6047602 uses a special waveguide construction for transmitting the Ultrasonic energy in the measuring tube. Shear waves are excited in the waveguide and the pipe wall.
- the invention has for its object to provide an acoustic coupling
- FIG. 1 Illustration of the coupling plate between measuring tube and clamp-on measuring head
- Fig. 2 representation of the temperature profile in the coupling plate.
- a specially designed coupling plate 2 is inserted between the pipe wall 3 and measuring head 1.
- the coupling plate consists of an acoustically low-damping material, which has a low heat conduction, preferably stainless steel.
- the thickness is much smaller than the other dimensions of the plate, preferably between 2 and 7 mm.
- the effective for the heat transfer between the pipe wall 3 and coupling plate 2 and between the coupling plate 2 and measuring head 1 small areas 4 and 5 allow only a small heat flow. The heat energy removed from the tube therefore remains low.
- the large side surfaces of the coupling plate carry the majority of the heat fed into the plate. Therefore, a significantly lower temperature than at the pipe coupling surface 4, which assumes the temperature of the pipe wall, is established at the measuring head coupling surface 5.
- the height of the coupling plate determines the temperature difference between pipe and measuring head coupling surface.
- the temperature difference between the coupling surfaces leads to a temperature profile within the coupling plate. Due to the small thickness, the temperature is approximately the same in all plate depths. The temperature change within the coupling plate is linked to a speed change of sound. The running in the coupling plate sound path 6 is therefore curved. The quotient effective for flow measurement
- sin S 1 are only slightly influenced along the entire sound beam path in the coupling plate.
- the temperature difference between pipe wall and sensor coupling surface to be realized determines the height of the coupling plate and the length of the trapezoidal continuation. If the temperature difference to be achieved is low (70 ° C.), the trapezoidal continuation can be omitted.
