Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of low-temperature refrigeration engineering, in particular to a calibration device for a low-temperature thermocouple thermometer in a temperature range of 77-90K. Background technique [0002] In low-temperature cavitation and liquid flooding experiments, the temperature range of the experimental section is between 77 and 90K, the frequency of temperature changes is very fast, and more temperature measuring points need to be arranged. Therefore, low-temperature thermocouples are widely used in the temperature measurement of the experimental section of low-temperature cavitation and liquid flooding experiments due to their excellent dynamic response characteristics and low cost. [0003] The traditional low-temperature thermocouple calibration method uses the boiling point of liquid nitrogen under standard atmospheric pressure, the temperature point of ice-water mixture, and the boiling water point as three...

Its principle is similar to that of the article [1]. It uses the different heating power of the heating wire in the constant temperature block and the cold radiation of liquid nitrogen to balance to achieve 77 ~ 300K Different stable temperature points; this type of device is widely used, but the incubator needs to be completely immersed in liquid nitrogen, and the inside of the incubator needs to maintain a high vacuum state. When calibrating a large number of thermocouples in groups, the vacuum must be repeatedly broken state, rearrange the thermocouples to be calibrated, and the operation is complicated

The article [3] describes a simple low-temperature thermocouple calibration system and method. Its invention is to mix different proportions of liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen in a low-temperature open container to obtain multiple calibration points between 77 and 90K, and A detailed uncertainty analysis is given for the calibration results, but the design of the device is simple, and multiple low-temperature thermocouples cannot be calibrated at the same time, and liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen cannot be reused after mixing
