Problems solved by technology

[0008] By evaluating the sound intensity in the ultrasonic range only, it cannot be determined exactly whether the condensate drain is just draining or has steam breakthrough due to damage
In this case, no clear determination of the status of the work will be drawn

Embodiment Construction

[0059] figure 1 Shown is flow sensor 1 with vibrating body 9 and base body 5 , which is designed in the form of a ring. The vibrating body 9 is designed here in the form of a rod and has a first region 2 and a second region 3 . An opening 10 is provided in the base body 5 , in which opening the vibrating body 9 is arranged. The basic body 5 has an opening 4 with a predetermined flow cross section. The first region 2 of the vibrating body 9 protrudes into the opening 4 . Alternatively, the vibrating body 9 can be designed such that the first region adjoins the flow cross section for the medium, ie is arranged adjacent to the flow cross section and thus at least partially contacts the flow surface. A medium, such as a multiphase flow, such as steam and condensate, flows through the predetermined cross section 4 . The second region 3 protrudes from the base body 5 above the opening 10 .

Abstract

The invention relates to a flow sensor and a method for monitoring a condensate drain (20), comprising the following steps: a) providing a flow sensor (1) for measuring flow properties in a pipe and / or fitting conducting a medium, b) detecting a vibratory behavior by means of a vibration transducer (112) at a measurement point (8) provided on the flow sensor (1), c) electronically evaluating the vibratory behavior of a vibrating body (9), wherein vibrations of a first region (2) of the vibrating body (9) that is provided at least partially in a or adjacent to the flow of the medium and of a second region (3) of the vibrating body (9) provided outside the flow are recorded at the measurement point (8).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for monitoring a condensate drain, a flow sensor for detecting the flow properties of a pipe and / or a fitting carrying a medium, in particular a condensate drain, and a method for monitoring at least A monitoring device for the condensate drain. Background technique [0002] Condensate drains are commonly used in facilities in the chemical industry, the pharmaceutical industry and the energy technology industry to drain condensate formed in steam lines or vessels or molding processes from the facility. In this case, the draining of the condensate must take place at a certain point in time in order to prevent a so-called water surge and for efficient energy use. This water impingement occurs when steam is introduced into or occurs in a liquid having a lower temperature. Furthermore, the condensate drain should prevent the escape of steam in the absence of condensate. [0003] In such installations, wear phenomena, co...
