TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of tobacco process detection, in particular to a cut tobacco mass flow belt scale calibration device and calibration method. BACKGROUND
[0002] During the operation of the belt scale, the zero point and the range of the belt scale will drift to different degrees due to various factors. For example, the belt scale will be affected by the adhesion of the material, the change of the belt tension or the deviation of the belt, and the shortening or elongation of the belt caused by the change of the temperature. In order to ensure the accuracy of the belt scale, the belt scale needs to be calibrated regularly.
[0003] For cut tobacco, according to the requirements of the State Tobacco Monopoly Bureau for the cigarette process specification, the calibration method of the electronic belt scale is divided into two types: one is the simulation load method, and the other is the real material passing method. The simulation load method is to place the standard weights with known weights uniformly on the weighing section of the electronic belt scale, and record the cumulative display value of the electronic belt scale after the weights flow uniformly through the electronic belt scale. The average value is calculated by repeating the measurement. The test requires P s ≥ 50 kg. The calculation formula is: In the formula, δ ds is the measurement accuracy of the electronic belt scale (%), P s is the cumulative weight of the placed weights (kg), and C s is the cumulative weight displayed by the electronic belt scale (kg). The real material passing method is to use a certain weight of tobacco material (more than 50 kg) to pass through the electronic belt scale or collect all the material at the outlet after weighing, and compare the cumulative value of the electronic belt scale. The average value is calculated by repeating the measurement. In theory, the above two calibration methods both use the principle of incremental superposition, but the properties of the superimposed materials are different.
[0004] For the simulation load method, a series of operations need to be performed by the on-site operator, such as placing the standard weights, recovering the standard weights, and calculating the average value. At the same time, the placement process inevitably introduces errors caused by human factors. For example, the lifting action of the standard weights will affect the scale frame of the auxiliary belt scale and cause errors. Therefore, the simulation load method requires a certain amount of manpower, and the on-site operator may also introduce certain errors during the operation. The real material passing method is more complicated to operate, and it is necessary to first weigh the tobacco material involved in the calibration, which is very laborious to move and weigh. In addition, the properties of the cut tobacco material (cut tobacco structure, moisture content) will change during the passing process, which is not conducive to the repeated use of the cut tobacco material. In addition, the introduction of the static hopper scale measurement error of the weighing hopper also increases the calibration error of the real material passing method.
[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to develop a kind of additional standard weight or material physical object, can improve the tobacco flow belt scale calibration convenience, calibration time is short, the human consumption is small, the result is reliable and the operator human factor interference is small tobacco mass flow belt scale calibration device and calibration method.

[0022] The second object of the present application is to provide a method for calibrating a tobacco mass flow belt scale, which fills the gap of the numerical method simulation method for calibrating a tobacco mass flow belt scale, and has the advantages of not needing additional standard weights or materials, good calibration convenience of the tobacco mass flow belt scale, short calibration time, small labor consumption, reliable results, and small interference of human factors of the operator.
[0023] To achieve this object, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0024] The present application provides a method for calibrating a tobacco mass flow belt scale, comprising the following steps:
[0025] Step 1. Collection and analysis of data: Collect various basic data, including but not limited to tobacco mass flow belt scale design drawings, tobacco mass flow belt scale operation data, and historical calibration data of the traditional simulation load method; when using the data, carefully analyze and check the data, carefully investigate the problems, and eliminate possible errors and omissions.
[0026] Step 2. Preliminary determination of airflow field structure: According to the required air flow and flow rate experience value sprayed on the belt scale, combined with the airflow flow characteristics, and considering the flow loss along the way and the throttling loss, the airflow field structure is preliminarily determined. The preliminary flow field structure corresponds to the basic data of the tobacco measuring belt scale.
[0027] Step 3. Model establishment and simulation method determination: Establish a three-dimensional physical model of the airflow in the internal and external regions of the spray component; according to the simulation efficiency and the accuracy of the tobacco flow calibration, select appropriate control equation discretization methods (finite difference method, finite element method, finite volume method), turbulence mathematical model and flow field solving algorithm, and establish the CFD simulation software accordingly.
[0028] Step 4. Simulation solution: boundary constraint condition determination and calculation region discretization; iterative solution and grid independence verification; simulation result storage, analysis and flow field structure optimization reconstruction.
[0029] Step 5. Auxiliary structure design: based on the simulation results of the airflow field, design the corresponding auxiliary equipment structure, including but not limited to the whole machine support, lifting platform, lifting adjustment structure, pneumatic execution structure, actuator, spray component support rod, fixed hinge, pipe fastening ring, selection of appropriate flow balance valve, soft connection pipe and display control screen.
[0030] Step 6. Modification implementation and application. The tobacco mass flow belt scale of the production line is modified, and finally applied to the actual production process.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, Step Step2 specifically comprises the following steps:
[0032] Step Step201. Presetting the pressure of the jet gas flow acting on the belt scale. According to the flow rate of the cut tobacco material in the actual production process, the time-averaged pressure of the local area of the belt scale is determined, and the preset pressure of the jet gas flow acting on the belt scale is determined accordingly.
[0033] Step Step202. Determining the empirical value of the gas velocity at the outlet of the Laval nozzle. Assuming that there is no reverse velocity (horizontal tangential flow) after the jet gas flow acts on the belt, the empirical value of the gas velocity at the outlet of the Laval nozzle is determined according to the law of conservation of momentum and in combination with the preset pressure acting on the belt scale.
[0034] Step Step203. Preliminarily determining the gas flow field structure according to the empirical value of the gas velocity at the outlet of the Laval nozzle, in combination with the flow characteristics of the gas flow, and taking into comprehensive consideration various flow losses (friction loss coefficient, throttling loss coefficient), including but not limited to the resistance coefficient of the flow balance valve, the ventilation degree of the air distribution plate, the number of Laval nozzles, the throat area of the Laval nozzle, and other cross-sectional areas of each section along the way. The initially determined flow field structure corresponds to the basic data of the cut tobacco measuring belt scale.
[0035] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, Step Step4 specifically comprises the following steps:
[0036] Step Step401. Boundary constraint condition establishment and calculation region discretization. According to the actual boundary and the spatial influence area of the geometric body, the boundary constraint condition of the jet gas flow is determined. According to the region discretization method, the grid of each three-dimensional model section is divided by region. The calculation region includes but is not limited to the circular pipe section, the gradually expanding cavity, the air distribution plate, the free-flowing cavity, the Laval nozzle, and the transmission belt end. The size of the CFD calculation grid of the gas flow field needs to be determined by comprehensively considering the accuracy of the gas phase field, the smoothness of the time and space variation, and the consumption of the calculation. The grid density of the key regions where the flow field changes sharply (near the horizontal air distribution plate, inside the Laval nozzle) is increased to improve the numerical simulation accuracy.
[0037] Step Step402. Iterative solution and grid independence verification: numerical iterative solution and grid sensitivity analysis are performed to determine the optimal CFD grid size of the gas phase field, and the grid independence verification is realized. If the requirement is met, the next step is entered; otherwise, the calculation grid needs to be modified, and the process jumps to Step Step401.
[0038] Step 403. Simulation result storage, analysis and flow field structure optimization reconstruction: store and analyze the simulation results, determine the relationship between the device inlet pressure and the pressure value of the airflow injection on the belt scale, and finally convert it into the relationship between the device inlet pressure and the simulated value of the tobacco flow, and optimize the reconstruction of the structure of each component accordingly. If the design requirements are met, proceed to the next step; otherwise, modify the structure size of each component and jump to step Step 201.
[0039] The detection device is suitable for accurate calibration of the tobacco quality flow belt scale in the tobacco making workshop of each cigarette factory. The device can be permanently installed on the tobacco measuring belt scale and can meet the requirements of frequent calibration of the tobacco quality flow belt scale.
[0040] The beneficial effects of the present application are:
[0041] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following significant progress:
[0042] The present application provides a tobacco quality flow belt scale calibration device. Compared with traditional calibration devices, the present application does not require standard weights or physical materials, reduces labor consumption, improves the convenience of calibration, and improves the intelligent level of tobacco flow calibration. The required calibration time is shorter. In the traditional analog load method, the placement of the weight on the belt scale, the horizontal movement of the belt scale driven by the weight, and the weight recovery process are performed in sections and intervals for the overall calibration process. However, using the device of the present application, the calibration process is continuous, and the required time is shorter. In the traditional physical material passing method, the static measurement of the material occupies a large amount of time, while the present application can immediately carry out calibration work by simply placing the airflow injection component and connecting the gas source. Therefore, the calibration device of the present application is also shorter in time than the physical material passing method. The influence of human factors in the traditional calibration method is effectively overcome, and the results are more reliable.
[0043] The application also provides a method for calibrating a tobacco mass flow belt scale, which fills the blank of the numerical method simulation method for calibrating the tobacco mass flow belt scale. The method has low cost and short cycle. In the structural design stage, compared with the test method, the method does not need to build a verification test bench, does not need to purchase related experimental materials, and does not need to maintain the site, consumables and equipment. The human and material consumptions of the application are far less than those of the test method. The method only needs a few days from three-dimensional modeling to calculation result output, which is far shorter than the test method. The structural optimization process of the tobacco mass flow belt scale calibration method of the application is convenient. By using the method, the modification and optimization of the structure are very convenient. Only the corresponding parameters need to be modified, and the numerical calculation software can re-divide the grid and iteratively calculate. During this period, there is almost no additional human and material consumption. If the test method is used, the workload, cost and cycle will be greatly increased. The tobacco mass flow belt scale calibration method can obtain all parameters in the whole domain. Some process parameters are difficult to measure by the test method and have no interference on the test process (such as local airflow velocity). By using the tobacco mass flow belt scale calibration method, all parameters in the whole domain can be obtained, which provides a basis for structural optimization and makes the structural optimization process more scientific.

[0056] As Figure 1As shown, the embodiment provides a tobacco mass flow belt scale calibration device, mainly comprising a pipeline fastening ring 1, a flow balance valve 2, a whole machine support 3, a soft connection pipe 4, a fixed hinge 5, a gradually expanding cavity 6, a horizontal air distribution plate 7, a free flow cavity 8, a Laval nozzle 9, a display control screen 11, a connecting line 12, an actuator 13, a lifting adjustment structure 14, a pneumatic execution structure 15, a jet component support rod 16, a lifting platform 17 and a compressed air inlet connection end 18. The whole machine support 3 is fixed above the transmission belt 10. The pipeline fastening ring 1 is wrapped with the compressed air inlet connection end 18 on the inside, and connected with the whole machine support 3 on the outside. One end of the compressed air inlet connection end 18 is connected with compressed air, and the other end is connected with the flow balance valve 2. The flow balance valve 2 is connected with the soft connection pipe 4. The lower side of the soft connection pipe 4 is connected with the gradually expanding cavity 6 through a round pipe.

The lower end of the horizontal air distribution plate 7 is connected with the free flow cavity 8, and the free flow cavity 8 is connected with the Laval nozzle 9. The lifting platform 17 is installed on one side of the whole machine support 3, and the horizontal height of the lifting platform 17 is adjusted through the lifting adjustment structure 14 on the lifting platform 17. The display control screen 11 is connected with the actuator 13 through the connecting line 12, and controls the pneumatic execution structure 15 to make the air cylinder of the pneumatic execution structure 15 contract or expand through the actuator 13.

[0057] The structure, installation mode, working principle and working process of the tobacco mass flow belt scale calibration device of the present application are further described as follows:
[0058] As Figures 1-2As shown, in this embodiment, the whole machine support 3 is fixed above the conveying belt 10. The compressed air will flow through the compressed air inlet connecting end 18, the flow balance valve 2, the flexible connecting pipe 4, the gradual expansion cavity 6, the horizontal air distribution plate 7, the free flow cavity 8 and the Laval nozzle 9 in sequence, and finally be sprayed on the conveying belt 10. The inside of the pipe fastening ring 1 is wrapped with the compressed air inlet connecting end 18, and the outside is connected with the whole machine support 3, which is used to fix the compressed air inlet connecting end 18. One end of the compressed air inlet connecting end 18 is connected with the compressed air, and the other end is connected with the flow balance valve 2. The flow balance valve 2 at the lower side of the compressed air inlet connecting end 18 is used for adjusting the flow of the compressed air. The flow balance valve 2 is connected with the flexible connecting pipe 4, which provides displacement compensation for the free extension and retraction of the air flow spraying components (including the fixed hinge 5, the gradual expansion cavity 6, the horizontal air distribution plate 7, the free flow cavity 8 and the Laval nozzle 9), reduces and absorbs the vibration and noise of the pipe system, and to some extent protects the normal operation of the system. A circular pipe with the same diameter as the compressed air inlet end 18 is connected at the lower side of the flexible connecting pipe 4. After the air flow passes through the flow balance valve 2, the flexible connecting pipe 4 and the circular pipe, it enters the gradual expansion cavity 6. The horizontal air distribution plate 7 is arranged at the tail end of the gradual expansion cavity 6, which is used to adjust the flow of the air flow again and improve the uniformity of the flow, and to weaken the flow boundary layer effect. Then, the air flow enters the free flow cavity 8. Finally, the air flow enters the Laval nozzle 9 and is sprayed on the conveying belt 10.
[0059] Further, the lifting platform 17 is installed on one side of the whole machine support 3, which is used to connect and support the pneumatic execution structure 15, the actuator 13 and the spraying component support rod 16. The horizontal height of the lifting platform 17 is adjusted through the lifting adjustment structure 14. The display control screen 11 is connected with the actuator 13 through the connecting line 12, and controls the pneumatic execution structure 15 through the actuator 13, so that the air cylinder of the pneumatic execution structure 15 contracts or expands, and the arrangement and folding of the air flow spraying components (including the fixed hinge 5, the gradual expansion cavity 6, the air distribution plate, the free flow cavity 8 and the Laval nozzle 9) are realized. The air flow spraying components and the lifting platform 17 are connected with the pneumatic execution structure 15 through the fixed hinge 5 respectively. The spraying component support rod 16 and the air flow spraying components are connected through the fixed hinge 5.
[0060] As an alternative technical solution, as shown in FIG. 2, the compressed air inlet connecting end 18 is connected with the flow balance valve 2 through the flexible connecting pipe 4, and the flexible connecting pipe 4 is connected with the gradual expansion cavity 6 through the fixed hinge 5. The gradual expansion cavity 6 is connected with the horizontal air distribution plate 7 through the free flow cavity 8, and the horizontal air distribution plate 7 is connected with the Laval nozzle 9 through the fixed hinge 5. The Laval nozzle 9 is connected with the conveying belt 10 through the spraying component support rod 16. Figures 1-2 As an alternative technical solution, as shown in FIG. 2, the compressed air inlet connecting end 18 is connected with the flow balance valve 2 through the flexible connecting pipe 4, and the flexible connecting pipe 4 is connected with the gradual expansion cavity 6 through the fixed hinge 5. The gradual expansion cavity 6 is connected with the horizontal air distribution plate 7 through the free flow cavity 8, and the horizontal air distribution plate 7 is connected with the Laval nozzle 9 through the fixed hinge 5. The Laval nozzle 9 is connected with the conveying belt 10 through the spraying component support rod 16.
[0061] Figures 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, the flow balancing valve 2 is a pneumatic regulating valve to ensure the food safety requirements of the tobacco used as a smoking food. The flow accuracy of the flow balancing valve 2 is within 5%.
[0062] As an optional technical solution, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, the expanding cavity 6 is a regular square truncated pyramid (trapezoidal truncated pyramid) structure. The upper and lower bases are squares, with the side length of the upper base greater than the outer diameter of the connecting circular tube; the side length of the lower base is 1.5 times greater than the side length of the upper base, to achieve a gradual widening of the airflow. The height of the square truncated pyramid is not less than the side length of the upper base, to reduce airflow pulsation and ensure sufficient flow development.
[0063] As an optional technical solution, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, the horizontal air distribution plate 7 is a geometric structure with uniformly spaced circular holes on a horizontal plate. The ventilation rate of the horizontal air distribution plate 7 is not less than 50% to ensure that the throttling loss of the air distribution plate is within a reasonable range. The radius of the circular holes is not greater than 8mm, and the number of holes is set according to the ventilation rate.
[0064] As an optional technical solution, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, the free-flow cavity 8 is a hollow cuboid structure, and its height is not less than the height of the gradually expanding cavity 6 to ensure the full development of compressed air flow.
[0065] As an optional technical solution, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, the front half of the Laval nozzle 9 narrows towards the center, forming a narrow throat, and then expands outwards towards the bottom of the nozzle. Gas in the pipe flows into the front half of the nozzle under high pressure, passes through the narrow throat, and escapes from the rear half. The airflow undergoes isentropic expansion within the Laval nozzle 9.

The preliminary airflow field structure corresponds to the basic data of the belt scale for tobacco measurement.
[0074] Step 3. Model Establishment and Simulation Method Determination: Establish a three-dimensional physical model of the airflow inside and outside the injection component; based on simulation efficiency and tobacco flow rate calibration accuracy, select an appropriate control equation discretization method (finite difference method, finite element method, finite volume method), turbulence mathematical model, and flow field solution algorithm, and establish the CFD simulation software accordingly.
[0075] Step 4. Simulation solution: boundary constraint condition establishment and calculation region discretization; iterative solution and grid independence verification; simulation result storage, analysis and flow field structure optimization reconstruction.

[0077] Step 6. Modification implementation and application. The production line tobacco quality flow belt scale is modified and finally applied to the actual production process.
[0078] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, step Step 2 specifically includes the following steps:
[0079] Step 201. Preset the pressure of the injection air flow acting on the belt scale. According to the flow of tobacco material in the actual production process, the time-averaged pressure of the local area of the belt scale is determined, and the preset pressure of the injection air flow acting on the belt scale is determined accordingly.
[0080] Step 202. Determine the empirical value of the gas velocity at the outlet of the Laval nozzle 9. Assuming that the injection air flow acts on the belt without reverse speed (horizontal tangential flow), according to the law of conservation of momentum and combining the preset pressure acting on the belt scale, the empirical value of the gas velocity at the outlet of the Laval nozzle 9 is determined.
[0081] Step 203. According to the empirical value of the gas velocity at the outlet of the Laval nozzle 9, combined with the flow characteristics of the air flow, and taking into account various flow losses (friction loss coefficient, throttling loss coefficient), the flow field structure is preliminarily determined, including but not limited to the resistance coefficient of the flow balance valve 2, the ventilation degree of the air distribution plate, the number of Laval nozzles 9, the throat area of the Laval nozzle 9 and other cross-sectional areas along the way.

The calculation region includes but is not limited to the circular pipe section, the gradually expanding cavity 6, the air distribution plate, the free flow cavity 8, the Laval nozzle 9 and the transmission belt 10 end. The size of the gas flow field CFD calculation grid needs to be determined by comprehensively considering the accuracy of the gas phase field, the smoothness of the time and space variation and the consumption of the calculation. The grid density of the key regions such as the place where the flow field changes sharply (near the horizontal air distribution plate 7, inside the Laval nozzle 9) is improved to improve the numerical simulation accuracy.

[0087] Taking the calibration of the tobacco mass flow belt scale in the tobacco making workshop of a cigarette factory as an example. The three-dimensional numerical simulation process of the tobacco mass flow belt scale calibration based on CFD provided by the application comprises:
[0088] Step 1. Collection and analysis of data: collect basic data, and carefully analyze and check the data.

[0090] Step 202. Assume that the jet gas acts on the belt without reverse speed (horizontal tangential flow), and according to the momentum conservation law and the preset pressure acting on the belt scale, the empirical value of the gas velocity at the outlet of the Laval nozzle 9 is determined to be 150 m / s.
[0091] Step 203. Preliminary determination of air flow field structure: According to the required air flow rate and flow rate experience value sprayed on the belt scale, combined with the flow characteristics of the air flow, and taking into account the flow loss along the way, the preliminary determination of the air flow field is as follows:

[0096] (5) The radius of the circular hole of the horizontal air distribution plate 7 is 8 mm, the number of holes is 100, and the holes are evenly distributed along the plate surface. The air distribution plate has a ventilation degree of 50%.
[0097] (6) The free flow cavity 8 has a height of 200 mm.
[0098] (7) The number of Laval nozzles 9 is 4, which is symmetric about the axis of the main flow direction of the air flow in the circular tube and is centrally symmetric.
[0099] (8) The cross-sectional radius of the Laval nozzle 9 at the inlet is 20 mm, the cross-sectional radius of the throat is 10 mm, and the cross-sectional radius of the outlet is 25 mm. The length of the narrow-throat cross-section of the Laval nozzle 9 from the inlet cross-section is 100 mm, and the length of the narrow-throat cross-section of the Laval nozzle 9 from the outlet cross-section is 300 mm. The distance between the outlet of the Laval nozzle 9 and the belt is 35 mm.
[0100] (9) The resistance coefficient of the flow balance valve 2 is 0.05.
[0101] Step 3.

The total number of grids is 67.73 million, there are 145.67 million faces and 19.18 million nodes. The minimum grid volume is 6.04 x 10 -10 m 3 , and the maximum grid volume is 8.73 x 10 -7 m 3 .
[0103] Step 402. Iterative solution and grid independence verification: numerical iterative solution and grid sensitivity analysis are performed to determine the best CFD grid size of the gas phase field and to realize the grid independence verification. The size of the CFD calculation grid of the gas flow field needs to be determined by considering the accuracy of the gas phase field, the smoothness of the time and space variation, and the calculation cost. In the simulation, three different sizes of CFD grids are tested, and finally it is found that the calculation domain containing 67.73 million CFD unit cells achieves the best balance between precision and calculation cost.
