Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of aero-engine whole-machine testing, and specifically relates to a pressure stabilization device for the reference end of a barometer. Background Technology

[0002] During the overall test of an aero-engine, it is necessary to measure gas pressures such as atmospheric pressure, total pressure, and static pressure. The accuracy of the measurement directly affects the calculation and analysis of engine performance parameters. An atmospheric pressure sensor is used to measure the ambient atmospheric pressure, and a barometer is used to measure the total pressure and static pressure. The atmospheric pressure sensor is installed in the test room, and the barometer is installed in the test room or test workshop depending on the specific situation. When the overall test is carried out, the atmospheric pressure in the test room and the atmospheric pressure in the test workshop will change with the engine status. This may lead to the following problems: (1) The atmospheric pressure measurement value in the test room changes with the engine test status, affecting the accuracy of the ambient atmospheric pressure measurement. The atmospheric pressure measurement value is related to the engine test status and the room sealing. During the test, the atmospheric pressure measurement value changes with the engine status, such as Figure 1 As shown. (2) The pressure at the reference end of the barometer changes with the engine test conditions, affecting the accuracy of the engine pressure parameter measurement. (3) When the measured total pressure and static pressure are converted from gauge pressure to absolute pressure, the accuracy of the inlet air flow calculation is affected by the atmospheric pressure measurement value.

[0003] To avoid inconsistencies in environmental pressure between the test chamber and proving ground due to engine conditions, some test benches currently install atmospheric pressure sensors near the barometer in the test chamber. This aims to keep the atmospheric pressure and the reference pressure of the barometer as consistent as possible, reducing errors in total pressure and static pressure measurements. However, this method cannot solve the problem of inconsistencies between atmospheric pressure and the reference pressure when the atmospheric pressure sensor and the barometer are not in the same room. It also cannot address the issue of atmospheric pressure and the reference pressure of the barometer changing with engine test conditions, affecting the accuracy of atmospheric pressure, total pressure, and static pressure parameter measurements.

[0004] Therefore, it is desirable to have a technical solution to overcome or at least mitigate one of the aforementioned defects of the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0029] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 2 This application will be described in further detail.

[0030] This application provides a pressure stabilization device for the reference end of a barometer, including a pressure stabilizing box 1 and a pressure stabilizing plate 4 disposed inside the pressure stabilizing box 1.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the pressure stabilizing box 1 has a sealed box structure with a lid on top. Three adapters are installed on the lid: a first adapter 11, a second adapter 12, and a third adapter 13. The first end of the first adapter 11 is connected to the atmospheric pressure sensor 2 via a first air pipe, and the second end of the first adapter 11 communicates with the interior of the pressure stabilizing box 1. The first end of the second adapter 12 is connected to the reference end of the barometer 3 via a second air pipe, and the second end of the second adapter 12 communicates with the interior of the pressure stabilizing box 1. The first end of the third adapter 13 communicates with the external environment via a third air pipe, and the second end of the third adapter 13 communicates with the interior of the pressure stabilizing box 1 via a fourth air pipe. A pressure stabilizing plate 4 is installed inside the pressure stabilizing box 1, dividing the internal space of the pressure stabilizing box 1 into multiple interconnected local spaces. In this embodiment, preferably, the third adapter 13 is located at the center of the lid, with the first adapter 11 and the second adapter 12 located on either side of the third adapter 13.

[0032] The pressure stabilization device for the reference end of the barometer in this application uses a pressure stabilizing box 1 as a sealed container with good sealing performance, which can keep the atmospheric pressure stable and consistent with the reference end pressure of the barometer 3. The atmospheric pressure sensor 2 is used to measure the ambient atmospheric pressure, and the barometer 3 is used to measure the engine air pressure parameters. The atmospheric pressure sensor 2, the barometer 3 and the atmospheric environment are connected through multiple adapters and air pipes. By fixing the end of the third air pipe away from the third adapter 13 inside the weather station 5, the outdoor end of the pressure stabilizing box is connected to the atmospheric environment.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the pressure stabilizing plate 4 is a porous solid plate with multiple micro-holes of 5mm diameter evenly distributed on it. Multiple pressure stabilizing plates 4 are arranged along the axial direction of the pressure stabilizing box 1, and each pressure stabilizing plate 4 is installed on the inner side wall of the pressure stabilizing box 1. Adjacent pressure stabilizing plates 4 are arranged opposite each other. The multiple pressure stabilizing plates 4 can divide the internal space of the pressure stabilizing box 1 into multiple interconnected local spaces, forming an S-shaped flow channel between them. Each pressure stabilizing plate 4 has a through hole. The end of the fourth gas pipe away from the third adapter 13 passes through the through hole on the multiple pressure stabilizing plates 4 and is accommodated in the local space away from the box cover, thereby connecting the outlet end of the fourth gas pipe to the local space at the bottom.

[0034] In one embodiment of this application, the pressure stabilizing plate 4 includes a first pressure stabilizing plate and a second pressure stabilizing plate disposed opposite to each other. Both the first and second pressure stabilizing plates have through holes. The first pressure stabilizing plate is located at the halfway point of the axial direction of the pressure stabilizing box 1, and the second pressure stabilizing plate is located near the box cover and at the quarter-way point of the axial direction of the pressure stabilizing box 1, thereby dividing the internal space of the pressure stabilizing box 1 into three interconnected local spaces. The end of the fourth air pipe away from the third adapter 13 passes through the through holes on the first and second pressure stabilizing plates and is accommodated in the local space away from the box cover. It is understood that the arrangement of the pressure stabilizing plate 4 in this application is not limited to the above embodiment. In practical applications, the arrangement of the pressure stabilizing plate 4 can be implemented according to the specific dimensions of the pressure stabilizing box 1.

[0035] Advantageously, in this embodiment, the bottom of the voltage regulator box 1 is also covered with multiple voltage stabilizing balls, the diameter of which is approximately 15mm.

[0036] The pressure stabilization device at the reference end of the barometer in this application addresses the issue that changes in cross-section or local obstruction of airflow can alter the direction or velocity of localized airflow, causing collisions or vortices between air particles and resulting in localized energy loss. Outdoor ambient air is introduced into the pressure stabilizing box 1 via a pipe. The pipe inlet is fixed within the weather station 5 on the test platform. After the outside airflow enters the pressure stabilizing box 1 through the pipe, the cross-section of the airflow changes. The airflow then encounters obstruction from the pressure stabilizing ball and plate 4 within the pressure stabilizing box 1, resulting in localized energy loss and achieving the goal of stabilizing atmospheric pressure. Connecting the atmospheric pressure sensor 2 and the reference end of the pressure measuring instrument 3 to the pressure stabilizing box 1 stabilizes both atmospheric pressure and the pressure at the reference end of the pressure measuring instrument 3, eliminating the influence of engine status changes on atmospheric pressure measurement and reference end pressure, and reducing measurement errors for low-pressure parameters such as total pressure and static pressure.

[0037] The pressure stabilization device at the reference end of the barometer in this application eliminates the error in measuring ambient atmospheric pressure caused by changes in engine status during the whole-machine test, which leads to changes in ambient atmospheric pressure; it also eliminates the influence of the whole-machine test on the reference end pressure of the barometer, making the ambient atmospheric pressure and the reference end pressure of the barometer consistent, eliminating the error in the absolute pressure calculation value, and improving the accuracy of the calculation of parameters such as inlet air flow; it has a simple structure, is easy to implement, and has a low cost.

[0038] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
