- the gas chamber 7 is configured such that the gas g flows in a predetermined direction 250 therein.
- the pump electrode 30 is located upstream of the predetermined direction 250, while the monitor electrode 40 and the sensor electrode 50 are located downstream of the predetermined direction 250. Further, the monitor electrode 40 and the sensor electrode 50 are arranged in parallel in the predetermined direction 250, whereby the concentration of the predetermined gas component (NOx) of the gas g having oxygen is measured by the pump cell 3. Is an error in the difference between the output of the monitor cell 4 indicating the residual oxygen concentration of the gas g after the adjustment of the gas g and the output of the sensor cell 5 indicating the oxygen concentration corresponding to the sum of the concentration of the predetermined gas component (NOx) and the residual oxygen concentration.
- the measurement accuracy of the predetermined gas component (NOx) concentration can be improved.
- the pump cell 3 since the pump cell 3 has a larger amount of oxygen ions flowing than the monitor cell 4 and the sensor cell 5, it is desirable that the pump cell 3 has a higher temperature than the monitor cell 4 and the sensor cell 5. Therefore, in this example, as is clear from FIG. 4, the heat generation center of the heater 6 is biased toward the pump cell 3 side. Thereby, the temperature of the pump cell 3 is made slightly higher than the temperatures of the monitor cell 4 and the sensor cell 5. Note that the heat generation center of the heater 6 is the highest temperature portion of the heat distribution generated from the heater 6.
- the temperature variation of the pump cell 3, the monitor cell 4, and the sensor cell 5 can be reduced, the power consumption of the heater 6 can be reduced, and the gas sensor 1 that can be miniaturized can be provided.
- FIG. 5 shows a gas sensor 1 according to the second embodiment.
- the gas sensor 1 has a plurality of solid electrolyte bodies 2.
- the gas sensor 1 includes two solid electrolyte bodies 2 (2a, 2b).
- the pump cell 3 is comprised using one solid electrolyte body 2a
- the monitor cell 4 and the sensor cell 5 are comprised using the other solid electrolyte body 2b.
- a distance Da between one solid electrolyte body 2a and the heater 6 and a distance Db between the other solid electrolyte body 2b and the heater 6 in the Z direction are equal to each other.
- the distance Da is the shortest distance between the main surface 22a of the solid electrolyte body 2a and the main surface 90 of the insulating layer 61 facing the main surface 22a.
- the distance Db is the distance of the solid electrolyte body 2b. This is the shortest distance between the main surface 22 b and the main surface 90 of the insulating layer 61.
- An insulating member 29 is interposed between the solid electrolyte bodies 2a and 2b.
- a pump cell 3 having a relatively large flowing current and a monitor cell 4 and a sensor cell 5 having a relatively small flowing current are constituted by independent solid electrolyte bodies 2a and 2b. . For this reason, a part of the current flowing through the pump cell 3 becomes a noise current, and the trouble flowing through the monitor cell 4 and the sensor cell 5 is minimized. This improves the accuracy of measuring the concentration of the predetermined gas component.
- FIG. 6 shows a gas sensor 1 according to the third embodiment.
- the gas sensor 1 differs from the first embodiment in the position of the heater 6. That is, a gas chamber 7 is provided between the heater 6 and the solid electrolyte body 2. The heater 6 faces the solid electrolyte body 2 through the gas chamber 7.
- Example 1 As those of the first embodiment. 6, the same reference numerals as those used in the first embodiment denote the same components as those in the first embodiment unless otherwise specified.
- Example 1 Here, by using the gas sensor of Example 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the thickness d of the solid electrolyte body 2 and the distance of the shortest distance L2 between the pump electrode 30 and the sensor electrode 50 are variously changed, and this shortest distance L2 The relationship between the ratio (L2 / d) of the thickness d and the NOx gas concentration detection accuracy of the gas sensor was examined.
- the ratio (L2 / d) of the shortest distance L2 between the thickness d of the solid electrolyte body 2 and the pump electrode 30 and the sensor electrode 50 is set to 3 or more. It can be seen that the output error can be greatly reduced to 2.5% or less. Further, if the ratio (L2 / d) is 3 or more, the output error can be reduced.
- the ratio (L2 / d) is 3 or more, the output error can be reduced.
- the monitor cell 4 and the sensor cell 5, 7 The following is preferable.
Abstract
Description
前記ガスが導入されるガス室と、
基準ガスが導入される基準ガス室と、
酸素イオン伝導性を有し、前記ガス室と前記基準ガス室との間に配置され、前記ガス室に面する第1の主面と、前記基準ガス室に面する第2の主面を有する一つの板状の固体電解質体と、
前記固体電解質体の第1主面に形成された複数の電極と、
前記固体電解質体の第2主面に形成された基準電極と、
前記固体電解質体の第1主面に形成された前記電極の一つであり、前記基準電極と前記固体電解質体の一部とともに、前記ガス中の酸素濃度を調整するポンプセルを構成するポンプ電極と、
前記固体電解質体の第1主面に形成された前記電極の一つであり、前記基準電極と前記固体電解質体の一部とともに、前記ポンプセルによって酸素の濃度を調整した後における前記ガス中の所定ガス成分の濃度に応じた信号を出力するセンサセルを構成するセンサ電極と、
前記ガス室又は前記基準ガス室を介して前記固体電解質体に対向配置されており、前記固体電解質体を加熱する所定の厚みを有する板状のヒータと、を有し、
前記ポンプ電極と前記センサ電極との最短距離の、前記固体電解質体の厚みに対する比率が3以上であるガスセンサである。
実施例1のガスセンサ1について、図1~図4を用いて説明する。ガスセンサ1は、酸素を含むガスgに含まれる所定のガス成分の濃度を測定するために用いられる。図1に示すごとく、ガスセンサ1は、ガス室7と、基準ガス室8と、板状の固体電解質体2(2p,2m,2s)と、ポンプ電極30と、モニタ電極40と、センサ電極50と、基準電極80と、所定の厚みを有する板状のヒータ6とを備える。ガス室7には酸素を含むガスgが導入され、基準ガス室8には基準ガスが導入される。
また、ガス室7は、ヒータ6の厚み方向(すなわちZ方向)に沿った所定の厚みと、所定の幅を有する単一の空間により形成さる。このガス室7の厚みは、少なくとも、固体電解質体2の主面21のポンプ電極30が形成された部分から主面21のモニタ電極40およびセンサ電極50が形成された部分まで一定となっている。ガス室7の幅は、ガス室7内でのガスの流れ方向250と厚み方向に直交する方向、すなわち、図2のY方向に沿った第1スペーサ11の内側壁間の間隔であり、すくなくとも、主面21のポンプ電極30が形成された部分から主面21のモニタ電極40およびセンサ電極50が形成された部分まで一定となっている。すなわち、ガス室7内における、ポンプ電極30からモニタ電極40及びセンサ電極50までの間には、絞り部や隔壁のように、ガス室7のZ方向寸法またはY方向寸法を狭くする物が存在しない。これにより、ガス室7内において、ガスgが、ポンプ電極30から、モニタ電極40及びセンサ電極50へ拡散律速することなく流れるようになる。
図5に、実施例2にかかるガスセンサ1を示す。ガスセンサ1は、複数の固体電解質体2を有している。具体的には、ガスセンサ1は、2つの固体電解質体2(2a,2b)を備える。そして、一方の固体電解質体2aを用いてポンプセル3を構成し、他方の固体電解質体2bを用いてモニタセル4及びセンサセル5を構成する。Z方向における、一方の固体電解質体2aとヒータ6との距離Daと、他方の固体電解質体2bとヒータ6との距離Dbとは、互いに等しい。正確には、距離Daは、固体電解質体2aの主面22aと、この主面22aに対面する絶縁層61の主面90との間の最短距離であり、距離Dbは、固体電解質体2bの主面22bと、絶縁層61の主面90の間の最短距離である。
図6に、実施例3にかかるガスセンサ1を示す。ガスセンサ1は、ヒータ6の位置において実施例1と異なる。すなわち、ヒータ6と固体電解質体2との間に、ガス室7が設けられている。そして、ヒータ6は、ガス室7を介して固体電解質体2に対向する。
(実験例1)
ここで、図1~3に示す実施例1のガスセンサを用いて、固体電解質体2の厚みdとポンプ電極30とセンサ電極50との最短距離L2の距離を種々変更して、この最短距離L2と厚みdとの比率(L2/d)の値とガスセンサのNOxガスの濃度検出精度の関係を調べた。
