[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 .

[0034] Some embodiments of the present application disclose a dew point meter calibration device, comprising a humidity generator, a calibration tube 12 and a detection tube 11.

[0035] The humidity generator is used to prepare humidity of different humidity, the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11 are communicated with the humidity generator, and the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11 are connected in parallel. A standard dew point meter 13 is arranged on the calibration tube 12, and a dew point meter to be calibrated 14 is arranged on the detection tube 11.

[0036] As shown in Figure 1 , the calibration tube 12 is further provided with a first temperature regulator, a first pressure gauge and a first pressure adjusting member 19, the first temperature regulator is used to adjust the humidity temperature of the calibration tube 12, the first pressure adjusting member 19 is used to adjust the humidity pressure of the calibration tube 12, and the first pressure gauge is used to measure the humidity pressure of the calibration tube 12;

[0037] The detection tube 11 is also equipped with a second temperature regulator, a second pressure gauge 16, and a second pressure regulator. The second temperature regulator is used to regulate the moisture temperature of the detection tube 11, the second pressure regulator is used to regulate the moisture pressure of the detection tube 11, and the second pressure gauge 16 is used to measure the moisture pressure of the calibration tube 12.

[0038] The dew point meter calibration device disclosed in this application adjusts the humidity of the air through a humidity generator, adjusts the humidity temperature and pressure of the calibration tube 12 through a first temperature regulator and a first pressure regulator 19, and adjusts the humidity temperature and pressure of the detection tube 11 through a second temperature regulator and a second pressure regulator, respectively. This allows the humidity temperature and pressure of the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11 of the dew point meter calibration device to be adjustable, and the humidity temperature and pressure of the calibration tube and the detection tube can be adjusted separately. This ensures that the adjustment range of the humidity temperature and pressure can cover the humidity, humidity temperature, and humidity pressure requirements for dew point meter calibration of high-temperature gas-cooled reactors.

[0039] The dew point meter calibration device disclosed in this embodiment can calibrate the dew point meter under normal temperature and pressure conditions, or it can calibrate the dew point meter under set temperature and set pressure conditions.

[0040] The calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11 are connected to the same humidity generator, and the humidity of the air in the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11 is the same. During calibration, the first pressure regulator 19 adjusts the humidity pressure of the calibration tube 12, and the second pressure regulator adjusts the humidity pressure of the detection tube 11, until the humidity pressures measured by the first pressure gauge and the second pressure gauge 16 are equal. At the same time, the humidity temperatures of the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11 are adjusted by the first temperature regulator and the second temperature regulator, respectively, until the humidity temperatures of the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11 are equal. At this time, the dew point meter 14 to be calibrated can be calibrated.

[0041] This application provides temperature regulators and pressure regulators on both the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11. The moisture temperature and pressure of the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11 can be adjusted separately, improving the flexibility of variable control and thus further expanding the calibration range of the dew point meter. At the same time, it reduces the influence of external environment on the moisture temperature and pressure of the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11, improving the reliability of the calibration results.

[0042] The dew point meter calibration device disclosed in this application can calibrate the dew point meter 14 to be calibrated under different pressure, temperature and humidity conditions, making up for the shortcomings of metrology departments and existing standard humidity generating devices in that they cannot test, calibrate and calibrate humidity sensing elements such as dew point meters under actual engineering operation conditions.

Under low pressure, the humidity generator uses compressed air, high-purity nitrogen or helium as dry gas source, and under high pressure, the humidity generator uses high-purity nitrogen or helium as dry gas source.

[0044] Preferably, the first pressure gauge is arranged on the calibration tube 12 and located downstream of the communication position of the calibration tube 12 and the detection tube 11, for directly detecting the humidity pressure of the calibration tube 12.

[0045] As shown in Figure 1 , a third pressure gauge 18 is arranged upstream of the communication position of the detection tube 11 and the calibration tube 12, and the third pressure gauge 18 measures the pressure of the humidity gas discharged by the humidity generator.

[0046] The third pressure gauge 18 can detect the dew point meter calibration device, and judge whether the dew point meter calibration device leaks. If the difference between the humidity pressure measured by the third pressure gauge 18 and the sum of the pressures of the first pressure gauge and the second pressure gauge 16 exceeds the error range, it is determined that the dew point meter calibration device leaks.

[0047] The installation sequence of the first temperature regulator, the first pressure regulating member 19 and the first pressure gauge on the calibration tube 12 is selected by a person skilled in the art according to actual needs, and preferably, the first pressure gauge is arranged near the standard dew point meter 13, and the first temperature regulator and the first pressure regulating member 19 are located upstream of the first pressure gauge and the positions can be interchanged.

[0051] As shown in Figure 1 , the dew point meter to be calibrated 14 is located upstream of the second pressure gauge 16, and the dew point meter to be calibrated 14 is located between the first pressure reducing valve 15 and the second back pressure valve 17.

[0052] Preferably, the second temperature regulator is located between the first pressure reducing valve 15 and the dew point meter 14 to be calibrated.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, the second temperature regulator is a second heater, preferably, the second heater is a heating tape.

[0057] The gas inlet end of the second-stage dilution pipe 9 is in communication with the gas outlet end of the gas supply pipe 1 and in parallel with the saturated humidity pipe 3, the second-stage dilution pipe 9 is provided with a second-stage gas inlet flow controller 10, the second-stage gas inlet flow controller 10 is used to control the flow of dry gas supplied to the second-stage dilution pipe 9 through the gas supply pipe, the pipe segment of the second-stage dilution pipe 9 downstream of the second-stage gas inlet flow controller 10 is in communication with the gas outlet end of the first-stage dilution pipe 6, that is, the communication position of the second-stage dilution pipe 9 and the first-stage dilution pipe 6 is downstream of the second-stage gas inlet flow controller 10, the second-stage dilution pipe 9 is used to perform second-stage dilution on the first-stage dilution humidity, and the gas outlet end of the second-stage dilution pipe 9 is in communication with the calibration pipe 12 and the detection pipe 11.
