[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0034] The response time method for temperature sensors provided in this application embodiment can be applied to, for example... Figure 1 The temperature sensor response time evaluation system shown. Among them, Figure 1 The temperature sensor response time evaluation system shown includes a controller 102, a water supply circuit 104, a steam generator 108, a first steam pipe 110, a first electromagnetic switch 112, a second steam pipe 114, and a second electromagnetic switch 118. A heating tube 106 is fixed in the cavity of the steam generator 108. A temperature sensor 120 is built into the sleeve of the second steam pipe 114, and the temperature sensor 120 is connected to a response time measuring instrument 116. One end of the steam generator 108 is connected to the water supply circuit 104, and the other end of the steam generator 108 is connected to one end of the first electromagnetic switch 112 through the first steam pipe 110. The other end of the first electromagnetic switch 112 is connected to the second electromagnetic switch 118 through the second steam pipe 114.

[0035] The water supply circuit 104 can be a circuit that supplies water to the steam generator 108. The steam generator 108 is a device used to generate steam medium. A heating tube 106 is provided in the cavity of the steam generator 108. The heating tube 106 can be a heating element with adjustable power. The heating element can be a PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) heating element, a rare earth thick film heating element, or a metal heating tube, etc. The water in contact with the heating element is heated and boiled by heating, and finally steam medium is obtained.

[0036] The first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 can be electromagnetic switches with fast opening characteristics, such as being able to start in less than 1 second, thereby realizing the transient impact of the steam medium through the linkage of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118.

[0037] In one embodiment, the temperature sensor 120 is parallel to the cross-section of the second steam pipe 114 and located at the axis of symmetry of the cross-section. According to the size interface requirements of the second steam pipe 114, the temperature sensor 120 is installed at a suitable depth in the second steam pipe 114 to measure the response time under the steam medium.

[0038] In one embodiment, the response time measuring instrument 116 can acquire the step response signal generated by the temperature sensor 120 when subjected to a transient impact, generate a step response curve, and feed the step response curve back to the controller 102. The response time measuring instrument 116 is a multi-channel data logger, so the response time measuring instrument 116 can acquire signals from various temperature sensors and realize the acquisition and export of step response signals from various temperature sensors.

[0039] In one embodiment, the controller 102 can be an electronic device independent of the response time evaluation system, or it can be an electronic device integrated with the response time evaluation system. In this embodiment, the controller 102 can be a control motherboard, on which a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and an MCU (Micro Control Unit) can be installed.

[0040] In one embodiment, the response time evaluation system also includes a flow meter 202. The flow meter can be positioned anywhere within the response time evaluation system, as long as it can monitor the flow rate of the steam medium flowing through the first steam pipe 110 and the second steam pipe 114. Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the flow meter 202 is disposed between the steam generator 108 and the first electromagnetic switch 112 to monitor the flow rate of the steam medium when it flows in the first steam pipe 110 and the second steam pipe 114, thereby determining the flow rate.

[0041] In one embodiment, the controller 102 selects the actual operating condition to be evaluated; after water in the water supply circuit 104 enters the steam generator, the controller controls the heating tube 106 to heat the water in the steam generator 108 to generate steam medium; if the generated steam medium meets the preset actual operating condition conditions corresponding to the actual operating condition, the controller controls the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to work together according to their respective target opening degrees so that the steam medium is output to the temperature sensor 120; the controller acquires the step response curve generated by the temperature sensor 120 when subjected to the transient impact of the steam medium, which is connected to the instrument feedback; based on the step response curve, the controller evaluates the response time of the temperature sensor 120 under the actual operating condition to be evaluated.

[0042] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, a method for evaluating the response time of a temperature sensor is provided, which can be applied to... Figure 1 Taking controller 102 as an example, the following steps are included:

[0043] Step S302: Select the actual working condition to be evaluated.

[0044] The actual operating condition to be evaluated can refer to the actual operating condition during the actual operation of a nuclear power plant. By selecting the actual operating condition to be evaluated, the controller 102 can conduct a response time evaluation, thereby specifically evaluating the response time of the temperature sensor 120 under the actual operating condition.

[0045] Specifically, different operating conditions correspond to different environmental parameters. For example, for actual operating condition A, the corresponding environmental parameters can be a temperature of 140°C, a pressure of 4 MPa, and a flow rate of 33 m / s. For actual operating condition B, the corresponding environmental parameters can be a temperature of 200°C, a pressure of 7 MPa, and a flow rate of 53 m / s. Therefore, by selecting the operating condition to be evaluated, the controller 102 can subsequently control the steam generator 108 to produce a steam medium that matches the environmental parameters, thereby simulating the real flow field conditions and improving the accuracy of response time evaluation.

[0046] Step S304: After the water in the water supply circuit enters the steam generator, the heating tube is controlled to heat the water in the steam generator to generate steam medium.

[0047] In this embodiment, after determining that water has flowed into the steam generator 108, the controller 102 controls the heating tube 106 to heat the water in the steam generator 108 to generate steam. Specifically, when water from the water supply circuit 104 flows into the steam generator 108, controlling the heating tube 106 to heat the water in the steam generator 108 to generate steam includes: when the water level flowing into the steam generator 108 reaches a preset water level, controlling the heating tube 106 to heat the water in the steam generator 108 to generate steam. The preset water level is determined by the flow rate under actual operating conditions.

[0048] The preset water level is a pre-defined water level that the water in the steam generator 108 should reach. When determining the preset water level, the controller 102 can obtain the actual flow rate and then determine the preset water level that matches the flow rate. The preset water level will vary depending on the actual operating conditions.

[0049] Specifically, when the controller 102 determines that the water level in the steam generator 108 has reached the preset water level, it will control the heating tube 106 to heat the water in the steam generator 108, so that the steam generator 108 can generate steam.

[0050] Step S306: If the generated steam medium meets the preset actual operating conditions corresponding to the actual operating conditions, then control the first electromagnetic switch and the second electromagnetic switch to work together according to their respective target opening degrees so that the steam medium is output to the temperature sensor.

[0051] Among them, the preset actual working conditions refer to the conditions set according to the working environment parameters corresponding to the actual working conditions to be evaluated. The target opening degree refers to the opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 when they are turned on. The target opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 can be consistent or different. The specific target opening degree can be adaptively adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0052] In one embodiment, the preset actual operating conditions include preset temperature conditions and preset pressure conditions, and further include: determining whether the temperature of the generated steam medium meets the preset temperature conditions and whether the pressure of the steam medium meets the preset pressure conditions; if both are met, then it is determined that the generated steam medium meets the preset actual operating conditions.

[0053] The preset operating conditions include preset temperature conditions and preset pressure conditions. When the controller 102 determines that the temperature of the steam medium meets the preset temperature conditions and the pressure of the steam medium meets the preset pressure conditions, the controller 102 can control the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to work together according to their respective target opening degrees so that the steam medium is output to the temperature sensor 120.

[0054] Specifically, the preset actual operating conditions can refer to whether the temperature of the steam medium reaches 160° and whether the pressure reaches 7 MPa. When the controller 102 determines that the current temperature of the steam medium reaches 160° and the pressure reaches 7 MPa, the controller 102 can control the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to work together according to their respective target opening degrees so that the steam medium can be output to the temperature sensor 120 in a transient impact manner.

[0055] In the above embodiments, the controller 102 determines whether to output steam medium to the temperature sensor 120 according to the preset actual operating conditions corresponding to the actual operating conditions, which can make the subsequent obtained step response curve match the actual operating conditions and effectively improve the evaluation accuracy.

[0056] Step S308: Obtain the step response curve generated by the temperature sensor fed back by the response time connection instrument when subjected to transient impact of steam medium.

[0057] Since the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 have the characteristic of fast opening, when the controller 102 controls the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to link together according to their respective target opening degrees, the temperature sensor 120 will be subjected to the transient impact of the steam medium. Therefore, the response time connection instrument 116 can generate a step response curve based on the step response signal generated by the temperature sensor 120 when it receives the transient impact of the steam medium, and finally feed the step response curve back to the controller 102.

[0058] Step S310: Based on the step response curve, evaluate the response time of the temperature sensor 120 under the actual operating conditions to be evaluated.

[0059] After receiving the step response curve, the controller 102 can evaluate the response time of the temperature sensor 120 under actual working conditions based on the step response curve.

[0060] For details, please refer to Figure 4The figure shows a schematic diagram of the step response curve of the temperature sensor 120. The controller 102 can use the characteristic point (such as 10% of the step amplitude) in the transient curve of the temperature sensor 120 itself as the starting temperature point, and the time taken for the temperature to rise from the starting temperature point to 63.2% of the temperature step value at the ending temperature point as the response time of the temperature sensor 120.

[0061] In the above-mentioned method for evaluating the response time of temperature sensor 120, the actual working condition to be evaluated is selected; after water in the water supply circuit 104 enters the steam generator 108, the heating tube 106 is controlled to heat the water in the steam generator 108 to generate steam medium; if the generated steam medium meets the preset actual working condition conditions corresponding to the actual working condition, the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 are controlled to work together according to their respective target opening degrees so that the steam medium is output to the temperature sensor 120; the step response curve generated by the temperature sensor 120 when subjected to the transient impact of the steam medium is obtained from the feedback of the response time connection instrument 116; based on the step response curve, the response time of the temperature sensor 120 under the actual working condition to be evaluated is evaluated. First, a steam medium matching the actual working conditions is generated. Then, the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 are linked according to their respective target opening degrees, so that the response time connection instrument 116 can obtain the step response curve generated by the temperature sensor 120 when subjected to transient impact of the steam medium, so that the temperature input is an ideal temperature step signal, thereby accurately evaluating the response time of the temperature sensor 120 under actual working conditions, and greatly improving the measurement accuracy of the response time.

[0062] In one embodiment, the response time evaluation system further includes a flow meter 202; before controlling the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to work together according to the target opening degree, the system further includes: controlling the first electromagnetic switch 112 to maintain a first preset opening degree and controlling the second electromagnetic switch 118 to maintain a second preset opening degree, and acquiring the flow parameters measured by the flow meter 202; comparing the flow parameters with a preset flow threshold to obtain a comparison result; and adjusting the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 according to the comparison result.

[0063] Among them, the flow parameter can refer to the flow velocity of the steam medium in the pipeline, and the preset flow threshold refers to the flow parameter set according to the actual working conditions. Different actual working conditions will result in different preset flow thresholds. Before the controller 102 controls the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to work together according to the target opening degree, it will first determine the target opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118.

[0064] Wherein, the first preset opening degree refers to the initial opening degree set by the controller 102 when the target opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 is determined, and the second preset opening degree refers to the initial opening degree set by the controller 102 when the target opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 is determined. The controller 102 controls the first electromagnetic switch 112 to maintain the first preset opening degree and controls the second electromagnetic switch 118 to maintain the second preset opening degree, and obtains the flow parameters at the current opening degree measured by the flow meter 202, and compares the flow parameters with the preset flow threshold to obtain the comparison result; according to the comparison result, the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 are adjusted.

[0065] For example, in some embodiments, the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 can be kept fully open (i.e., 100% opening degree), and the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 can be kept at any proportion of opening degree, thereby ensuring that the steam medium can be output at a large flow rate when it is output.

[0066] In the above embodiments, the controller 102 sets the first electromagnetic switch 112 to maintain the first preset opening degree and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to maintain the second preset opening degree, and measures the flow rate of the steam medium at the current opening degree through the flow meter 202. Thus, the controller can adjust the initial first preset opening degree and the second preset opening degree according to the preset flow rate threshold, and accurately determine the target opening degree.

[0067] In one embodiment, based on the comparison result, the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 are adjusted, including: if the comparison result is that the flow parameter is less than the flow threshold, then the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and / or the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 are increased according to a preset opening degree growth method until the flow parameter is equal to the flow threshold, and the updated first preset opening degree is used as the target opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112, and the updated second preset opening degree is used as the target opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118; if the comparison result is that the flow parameter is greater than the flow threshold, then the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and / or the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 are decreased according to a preset opening degree decrease method until the flow parameter is equal to the flow threshold, and the updated first preset opening degree is used as the target opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112, and the updated second preset opening degree is used as the target opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118.

[0068] The preset opening degree increase method refers to the method of increasing the flow parameter by controlling the opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 when the flow parameter is less than the flow threshold. Specifically, when only the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 is controlled, the preset opening degree increase method can be to control only the first electromagnetic switch 112 to adjust by a first ratio, while keeping the opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 unchanged; when only the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 is controlled, the preset opening degree increase method can be to control only the second electromagnetic switch 118 to adjust according to a second ratio, while keeping the opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 unchanged; when both the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 are controlled simultaneously, the preset opening degree increase method can be to control the first electromagnetic switch 112 to adjust according to the first ratio and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to adjust according to the second ratio. The first ratio and the second ratio can be the same or different, and the specific settings of the first ratio and the second ratio can be set according to the actual situation. In actual use, the specific adjustment method adopted by the controller 102 can also be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0069] In one embodiment of this application, from the perspective of reducing control difficulty, when the flow parameter is less than the flow threshold, the controller 102 controls the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 to remain unchanged, and the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 to increase until the flow parameter is equal to the flow threshold. Finally, the updated first preset opening degree is used as the target opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112, and the updated second preset opening degree is used as the target opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118.

[0070] The preset opening reduction method refers to a method that reduces the flow parameter by controlling the opening of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 when the flow parameter exceeds the flow threshold. Specifically, when only the first preset opening of the first electromagnetic switch 112 is controlled, the preset opening reduction method can be to control the first electromagnetic switch 112 to adjust by a first ratio while keeping the opening of the second electromagnetic switch 118 unchanged. When only the second preset opening of the second electromagnetic switch 118 is controlled, the preset opening reduction method can be to control the second electromagnetic switch 118 to adjust by a second ratio while keeping the opening of the first electromagnetic switch 112 unchanged. When both the first preset opening of the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second preset opening of the second electromagnetic switch 118 are controlled simultaneously, the preset opening reduction method can be to control the first electromagnetic switch 112 to adjust by a first ratio and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to adjust by a second ratio. The first and second ratios can be the same or different, and their specific settings can be configured according to actual conditions. In actual use, the specific adjustment method adopted by the controller 102 can also be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0071] Similarly, from the perspective of reducing control difficulty, in one embodiment, when the flow parameter is greater than the flow threshold, the controller 102 can control the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 to remain unchanged, and the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 to decrease until the flow parameter is equal to the flow threshold. The updated first preset opening degree is used as the target opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112, and the updated second preset opening degree is used as the target opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118.

[0072] In the above embodiments, the controller 102 updates the flow parameters by adjusting the first preset opening degree and the second preset opening degree. Since only one of the first electromagnetic switches 112 needs to be adjusted each time, the control difficulty can be effectively reduced, and the final target opening degree matches the flow rate under actual operating conditions, thereby improving the evaluation accuracy. Of course, in some embodiments, when the flow parameters are not equal to the flow threshold, the second preset opening degree of the second electromagnetic switch 118 can be kept unchanged, and the flow parameters can be adjusted only by adjusting the first preset opening degree of the first electromagnetic switch 112 to make the flow parameters equal to the flow threshold. This will not be elaborated further here.

[0073] In one embodiment, controlling the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to be linked according to their respective target opening degrees so that the steam medium is output to the temperature sensor 120 includes: controlling the first electromagnetic switch 112 to open according to the corresponding target opening degree and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to open according to the corresponding target opening degree so that the steam medium is output to the temperature sensor 120 according to the steam flow rate corresponding to the actual working condition to be evaluated.

[0074] The controller 102 controls the first electromagnetic switch 112 to open according to the corresponding target opening degree, and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to open according to the corresponding target opening degree, so that the steam medium can be output to the temperature sensor 120 according to the steam flow rate corresponding to the actual working condition to be evaluated. Since the flow rate of the steam is precisely controlled, the evaluation accuracy can be effectively improved.

[0075] To illustrate the response time evaluation process of temperature sensor 120, the following are the complete steps of a response time evaluation method for temperature sensor 120 in one embodiment:

[0076] First, the controller 102 selects the actual operating condition to be evaluated and performs a response time evaluation, which allows the response time of the temperature sensor 120 under actual operating conditions to be evaluated.

[0077] When the controller 102 determines that the water level in the steam generator 108 has reached the preset water level, it will control the heating tube 106 to heat the water in the steam generator 108, so that the steam generator 108 can generate steam. When determining the preset water level, the controller 102 can obtain the flow rate under the actual working conditions, and then determine the preset water level that matches the flow rate. The preset water level will vary depending on the actual working conditions.

[0078] When the controller 102 determines that the temperature of the steam medium meets the preset temperature regulation and the pressure of the steam medium meets the preset pressure condition, the controller 102 can control the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to work together according to their respective target opening degrees so that the steam medium is output to the temperature sensor 120. The target opening degree is matched with the flow rate under actual working conditions.

[0079] Because the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 have the characteristic of fast opening, when the controller 102 controls the first electromagnetic switch 112 and the second electromagnetic switch 118 to link together according to their respective target opening degrees, the temperature sensor 120 will be subjected to the transient impact of the steam medium. Therefore, the response time connection instrument 116 can generate a step response curve based on the step response curve generated by the temperature sensor 120 when it receives the transient impact of the steam medium, and finally feed the step response curve back to the controller 102.

[0080] After receiving the step response curve, the controller 102 can evaluate the response time of the temperature sensor 120 under actual operating conditions based on the step response curve.

[0081] It should be understood that although the steps in the flowcharts of the embodiments described above are shown sequentially according to the arrows, these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless explicitly stated herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders. Moreover, at least some steps in the flowcharts of the embodiments described above may include multiple steps or multiple stages.
