Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of micro-pressure measurement, and in particular to a liquid micro-pressure measurement method, device, storage medium and equipment. Background Art

[0002] The common pressure measurement methods currently used in industry and laboratories include liquid pressure gauges, elastic element pressure gauges, various pressure sensors, and piston pressure gauges for calibrating pressure gauges. Liquid pressure gauges have simple structures, are easy to manufacture, have reliable measurements, and are highly accurate. When measuring pressures in the range of 0 to 10 kPa, liquid pressure gauges are the most suitable choice.

[0003] The accuracy of the liquid pressure gauge mainly depends on the accuracy of the liquid column height reading, and is also affected by the local gravity acceleration and the change in the density of the working medium. The local gravity acceleration has little effect on the accuracy of the liquid pressure gauge and can be ignored in many cases. The change in the density of the working medium also has little effect on the accuracy of the liquid pressure gauge, and can be corrected by measuring the medium temperature. However, since the pressure of a 1 mm standard water column reaches 9.8 Pa, the reading error of the liquid column height will have a great impact on the accuracy of the liquid pressure gauge. Therefore, maximizing the accuracy of the liquid column height reading is the key to improving the accuracy of the liquid pressure gauge, especially when measuring micro-pressures in the hectopascal range.

[0004] The reading error of the liquid column height mainly includes sine error, cosine error, parallax, scale error, zero position error, etc. In order to reduce the reading error of the liquid column height and improve the measurement accuracy of the liquid pressure gauge, the existing liquid micromanometer is equipped with a spiral micrometer mechanism on the liquid pressure gauge device, and even an acoustic device or an optical device is installed to measure the change of the liquid column height of the pressure gauge. Although the introduction of these high-precision liquid column height measurement devices has improved the measurement accuracy of the liquid pressure gauge, it has also greatly complicated the pressure measurement equipment, greatly affecting the simple and easy-to-operate characteristics of the liquid pressure gauge.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0059] Embodiment 1

[0060] This embodiment provides a liquid micro-pressure measurement method, which is applicable to Figure 1 The liquid type micro-pressure measuring device shown in the figure comprises a micro-pressure measuring unit 1, wherein the micro-pressure measuring unit 1 comprises a plurality of pressure measuring tubes arranged in parallel, each of which is connected to a pressure taking hole to be measured through a corresponding pressure-leading tube. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0061] Step S101, obtaining images of the liquid columns in each pressure measuring tube.

[0062] The liquid micro-pressure measuring device of this embodiment may further include a camera 3, which is arranged facing the micro-pressure measuring unit and is used to take digital images of the liquid columns in each pressure measuring tube.

[0063] In some implementations, the liquid micro-pressure measuring device of this embodiment may further include two pressure measuring tubes 2 respectively located on the left and right sides of the micro-pressure measuring unit 1, and the two pressure measuring tubes 2 are arranged in parallel with the pressure measuring tube in the micro-pressure measuring unit 1, and are respectively connected to the two pressure holes of the liquid level adjustment box, for calculating the correction coefficient according to the pixel coordinates of the bottom vertices of the liquid surface in the two pressure measuring tubes 2 connected to the liquid level adjustment box in subsequent steps.

[0064] In some implementations, the liquid micro-pressure measuring device of this embodiment may further include a light homogenizing plate 4 and a light homogenizing lamp 5; the light homogenizing plate 4 is arranged on the side of each pressure measuring tube (including each pressure measuring tube in the micro-pressure measuring unit 1 and two pressure measuring tubes 2 arranged on the left and right sides of the micro-pressure measuring unit 1) away from the camera 3, and the light homogenizing plate 4 is used to fix each pressure measuring tube; the light homogenizing lamp 5 is arranged on the side of the light homogenizing plate 4 away from each pressure measuring tube, and is used to irradiate uniform light on the light homogenizing plate 4, so that the light homogenizing plate 4 evenly projects the light to each pressure measuring tube.

[0065] Before acquiring the images of the liquid columns in the respective pressure measuring tubes, the method may further include:

[0066] Step S100, adjusting the heights of the liquid columns in the two pressure measuring tubes connected to the liquid level adjustment box so that the heights of the liquid columns in the two pressure measuring tubes are consistent.

[0067] Since the liquid in the liquid level adjustment box is still, the heights of the liquid columns in the leftmost and rightmost pressure measuring tubes 2 are consistent, that is, the liquid levels of the liquid columns in the two pressure measuring tubes are horizontal. The purpose of this setting is to correct the errors caused by the pressure measuring tubes not being installed completely vertically and the captured images not being completely horizontal when processing the images of the liquid columns in the pressure measuring tubes.

[0068] Step S102, obtaining the liquid surface pixel coordinate information of the liquid column in each pressure measuring tube in the image, wherein the liquid surface pixel coordinate information includes the pixel coordinates of the boundaries on both sides of the liquid surface and the pixel coordinates of the vertex at the bottom of the liquid surface.

[0069] In some implementations, obtaining pixel coordinate information of the liquid level of each liquid column in each pressure measuring tube in the image may further include:

[0070] Step S102a, reading the pixel coordinates of the boundaries on both sides of the liquid surface of each liquid column in each pressure measuring tube in the image;

[0071] Step S102b: obtaining the pixel coordinates of the vertex at the bottom of the liquid surface based on the pixel coordinates of the boundaries on both sides of the liquid surface.

[0072] The pressure change at the pressure tapping hole or the pressure difference between the pressure tapping holes can be obtained by processing the digital image of the liquid column in the pressure measuring tube. A typical liquid column image is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the leftmost and rightmost pressure measuring tubes are represented by Tube-L and Tube-R respectively. These two pressure measuring tubes are connected to the liquid level adjustment box. The micro-pressure measurement unit 1 includes 4 pressure measuring tubes, namely the 4 pressure measuring tubes in the middle of the figure, represented by Tube-1 to Tube-4 respectively. These 4 pressure measuring tubes are connected to 4 pressure tapping holes through pressure tapping tubes. Figure 3 It can be seen that the liquid column image clearly shows the height of the liquid column in the pressure measuring tube, and the black meniscus at the top of the liquid column is the projection of the liquid surface.

[0073] After obtaining the digital image of the liquid column, it is necessary to read the pixel coordinates of the liquid surface of each liquid column. It is necessary to read the pixel coordinates of the left boundary, right boundary and bottom vertex of the liquid surface of each liquid column. Taking the liquid column of Tube-L pressure tube as an example, first read the pixel coordinates of the left boundary (L lx , L ly ) and the right boundary pixel coordinates (L rx , L ry ), and then obtain the horizontal pixel coordinate L of the vertex at the bottom of the liquid surface bx =(L lx +L rx ) / 2, with the horizontal axis being L bxThe vertical pixel coordinate L of the bottom vertex of the meniscus projected by the liquid surface is located on the vertical line by The same method is used to read out the liquid level pixel coordinates of the Tube-R pressure tube and other pressure tube liquid columns in the micro-pressure measurement unit 1. The liquid level pixel coordinates of the Tube-R pressure tube liquid column are represented by R, and the liquid level pixel coordinates of the pressure tube liquid columns connected to the pressure holes are represented by S1 to S4, which will not be repeated here.

[0074] Since the surface tension of the liquid column will cause the liquid column surface to rise, which will bring errors to the micro-pressure measurement, it is necessary to correct the height of the liquid column surface caused by the surface tension of the liquid column surface. The projection image of the liquid column surface in the pressure measuring tube on the image is a meniscus, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, d is the inner diameter of the pressure tube, h is the height of the meniscus, θ is the contact angle between the liquid column surface and the inner wall of the pressure tube, and H0 is the height of the liquid column surface caused by the surface tension of the liquid surface. The surface tension of the liquid surface is corrected by the three pixel coordinates of the liquid surface (S 1x , S ly )、(S rx , S ry )、(S bx , S by ) calculates H0 and then realizes error correction when calculating the pressure difference at the pressure tapping holes connected to different pressure measuring tubes.

[0075] Step S103: Calculate the height of the liquid surface caused by the liquid surface tension based on the liquid surface pixel coordinate information.

[0076] In some implementations, calculating the height of the liquid surface caused by the surface tension of the liquid surface based on the liquid surface pixel coordinate information may further include:

[0077] Step S103a, using a first calculation formula to calculate the height of the liquid level caused by the surface tension of the liquid surface, wherein the first calculation formula represents the relationship between the height of the liquid level caused by the surface tension of the liquid surface, the contact angle formed between the liquid surface and the inner wall of the pressure measuring tube, and the inner diameter of the pressure measuring tube.

[0078] In some implementations, the first calculation formula is:

[0079]

[0080] Among them, H o It represents the height of the liquid level caused by the surface tension of the liquid surface, d represents the inner diameter of the pressure measuring tube, θ represents the contact angle formed by the liquid surface and the inner wall of the pressure measuring tube, and B represents the Bond number.

[0081] B=ρgd 2 / 4σ, σ represents the surface tension coefficient of the liquid surface in the air, and ρ represents the density of the liquid at the current measurement temperature.

[0082] The contact angle θ can be calculated using the following formula:

[0083]

[0084] Where h = f[S by -(S ly +S ry ) / 2].

[0085] f is the ratio of pixel coordinates to length coordinates, m / pixel:

[0086]

[0087] Where D is the outer diameter of the pressure measuring tube, m.

[0088] Step S104: Calculate the pressure difference at the pressure holes to which different pressure measuring tubes are connected based on the height.

[0089] In the case where the liquid micro-pressure measuring device includes two pressure measuring tubes respectively located on both sides of the micro-pressure measuring unit, the two pressure measuring tubes are arranged in parallel with the pressure measuring tube in the micro-pressure measuring unit and are respectively connected to two pressure taking holes of the liquid level adjustment box, and the pressure difference at the pressure taking holes connected to different pressure measuring tubes is calculated based on the height, including:

[0090] Step S104a, calculating the pressure difference at the pressure holes connected to different pressure measuring tubes based on the height and the correction coefficient; wherein the correction coefficient is calculated based on the pixel coordinates of the bottom vertices of the liquid surface in the two pressure measuring tubes connected to the liquid level adjustment box.

[0091] In some implementations, calculating the pressure difference at the pressure tapping holes to which different pressure measuring tubes are connected based on the height and the correction coefficient may include:

[0092] Use the second calculation formula to calculate the pressure difference at the pressure holes where the two pressure measuring tubes are connected:

[0093] Calculate Figure 3 The pressure difference between Tube-1 and Tube-2 is ΔP 1,2 For example, the second calculation formula is as follows:

[0094] ΔP 1,2 =ρg(H1-H2)

[0096] H1=(l v -S1 by +(S1 bx -L bx )k)fH 0,1

[0097] H2=(l v -S2 by +(S2 bx -L bx )k)fH 0,2

[0098] Among them, l v represents the total number of vertical pixels of the liquid column image, k represents the correction coefficient, H 0,1 and H 0,2 Represents two pressure measuring tubes ( Figure 3 The height of the liquid column in Tube-1 and Tube-2) caused by the surface tension of the liquid column;

[0099] k=((R by +H 0,r )-(L by +H 0,l )) / (R bx -L bx )

[0100] Among them, (R bx , R by ) represents the pixel coordinates of the rightmost pressure gauge, (L bx , L by ) represents the pixel coordinates of the leftmost pressure gauge, H 0,r and H 0,1 They respectively represent the height of the liquid column in the rightmost pressure tube and the leftmost pressure tube caused by the surface tension of the liquid column.

[0101] The micro-pressure measurement method of this embodiment is used to measure the pressure difference of four pressure holes with the same pressure. The height position and shape position of the pressure measuring liquid column can be accurately determined to 0.02mm. At the same time, based on the shape of the liquid surface formed by the liquid column in the air during pressure measurement, the pressure measurement error caused by the surface tension of the pressure measuring liquid column is corrected, ensuring that the measurement error does not exceed 0.5Pa when measuring the pressure difference in the range of 0 to 300Pa.

[0138] Embodiment 5

[0139] This embodiment provides a liquid micro-pressure measuring device, such as Figure 1 As shown, including:

[0140] The micro-pressure measuring unit 1 comprises a plurality of pressure measuring tubes arranged in parallel, each of which is connected to a pressure-taking hole to be measured through a correspondingly arranged pressure-guiding tube;

[0141] The camera 3 is arranged facing the micro-pressure measuring unit 1 and is used to take images of the liquid columns in each pressure measuring tube;

[0142] And the electronic device provided by the aforementioned embodiment.

[0143] In some implementations, the liquid micro-pressure measuring device further includes:

[0144] Two pressure measuring tubes 2 are respectively located on both sides of the micro-pressure measuring unit 1. The two pressure measuring tubes 2 are arranged in parallel with the pressure measuring tube in the micro-pressure measuring unit 1 and are respectively connected to two pressure taking holes of a liquid level adjustment box containing liquid. The purpose of the arrangement of the two pressure measuring tubes 2 is to calculate the correction coefficient according to the pixel coordinates of the bottom vertices of the liquid surface in the two pressure measuring tubes 2 connected to the liquid level adjustment box in the subsequent steps, so as to correct the error caused by the pressure measuring tubes not being installed completely vertically and / or the image being taken not being completely horizontal when processing the image taken by the camera 3.

[0145] In some implementations, the liquid micro-pressure measuring device further includes:

[0146] A light homogenizing plate 4 is arranged on a side of each pressure measuring tube (including each pressure measuring tube in the micro-pressure measuring unit 1 and two pressure measuring tubes 2 arranged on the left and right sides of the micro-pressure measuring unit 1) away from the camera 3, and is used to fix each pressure measuring tube;

[0147] The light homogenizing lamp 5 is arranged on a side of the light homogenizing plate 4 away from each pressure measuring tube, and is used to irradiate uniform light on the light homogenizing plate 4 so that the light homogenizing plate 4 evenly projects the light to each pressure measuring tube.

[0148] In some application examples, the camera 3 can be a high-resolution camera, the homogenizing plate 4 can be a frosted plexiglass plate, the homogenizing lamp 5 can be an LED homogenizing lamp group, and each pressure measuring tube can be an plexiglass tube, but the specific implementation of the homogenizing plate 4 and the homogenizing lamp 5 in this embodiment is not limited to a single one.

[0149] The liquid pressure gauge in the related art is composed of a pressure measuring tube and a scale for measuring the height of the liquid column in the pressure measuring tube, while the liquid micro-pressure measuring device used in this embodiment realizes liquid micro-pressure measurement based on images. It does not need to use a scale to measure the height of the liquid column, but adds a high-resolution camera 3, a homogenizing lamp 5 and a homogenizing plate 4. The pressure measuring tube can be fixed on the surface of the homogenizing plate 4, and the lower end of the pressure measuring tube is connected to one end of the pressure-leading tube, and the other end of the pressure-leading tube is connected to the pressure-taking hole. The liquid at the pressure-taking hole enters the pressure measuring tube through the pressure-leading tube. The homogenizing lamp 5 irradiates uniform light onto the homogenizing plate 4, and the light is further evenly transmitted through the homogenizing plate 4. The light transmitted from the homogenizing plate 4 passes through each pressure measuring tube, and the image of each pressure measuring tube and the liquid column in the pressure measuring tube is projected into the camera 3, which is photographed by the camera 3 to form a digital image. The number of pressure measuring tubes in the micro-pressure measuring unit 1 is determined according to the number of pressure holes to be measured. Each pressure hole requires a pressure measuring tube. A pressure measuring tube 2 is arranged on the leftmost and rightmost sides of the micro-pressure measuring unit 1, respectively. The leftmost and rightmost pressure measuring tubes 2 are not connected to the pressure holes to be measured, but are connected to the pressure holes of the liquid level adjustment box containing a certain volume of liquid. Since the liquid in the liquid level adjustment box is stationary, the heights of the liquid columns in the leftmost and rightmost pressure measuring tubes 2 are the same, that is, the liquid levels of the liquid columns in the two pressure measuring tubes are horizontal. The purpose of such a setting is to correct the errors caused by the pressure measuring tubes not being installed completely vertically and the captured images not being completely horizontal when processing the captured images of the liquid columns in the pressure measuring tubes.

[0150] When using the liquid micro-pressure measuring device of the present embodiment to perform liquid micro-pressure measurement, first turn on the uniform light lamp 5, connect one end of the pressure-guiding tube to the pressure-taking hole to be measured, and the other end to the pressure-gauging tube, and at the same time connect the leftmost pressure-gauging tube and the rightmost pressure-gauging tube 2 fixed on the uniform light plate 4 to the liquid level adjustment box, then remove the bubbles in the pressure-guiding tube, and adjust the height of the liquid level adjustment box so that the height of the liquid column in the leftmost and rightmost pressure-gauging tubes is basically the same as the height of the liquid column in other pressure-gauging tubes. Then adjust the pan / tilt of the camera 3 bracket to the horizontal level, and face the lens of the camera 3 to each pressure-gauging tube, the height of the lens is basically the same as the height of the liquid column in the pressure-gauging tube, and then adjust the focal length of the camera 3 to obtain a clear pressure-gauging tube image. When the working condition to be measured is stable, press the shutter button of the camera 3 to obtain the image of the pressure-gauging tube and its liquid column under the measuring working condition. When the working condition needs to be changed, repeat the previous step and readjust the camera 3. When the working condition changes and causes a significant change in the height of the liquid column in the pressure measuring tube, the height of the camera and the height of the liquid level adjustment box should be adjusted synchronously to make the lens height of camera 3, the height of the liquid column in the leftmost and rightmost pressure measuring tubes fixed on the homogenizing plate 4, and the height of the liquid column in other pressure measuring tubes basically consistent.
