[0089] No, return to step b. Specific implementation method three

[0091] The following is a specific implementation of the simulation comparison of different control strategies for the dual heating rods of the fan of the on-chip high-temperature aging test socket of the present invention.

[0092] In this specific embodiment, the control method for the dual-heating rod fan of the on-chip high-temperature aging test socket has the following parameters: the temperature sampling period is 0.02s. Within a temperature sampling period of 0.02s, the fan operation can reduce the test environment temperature by 0.1°C, the radiator can reduce the test environment temperature by 0.02°C, and the heating rod full-load heating can increase the test environment temperature by 0.5°C; the test environment target temperature is set to 150°C, and the current temperature of the test environment is collected as 20°C (room temperature);

[0093] The following three control strategies are executed respectively and sampled for 100s;

[0094] Strategy 1: One heating rod is heated at full load, and the other heating rod is heated at a duty cycle of T t / T d PWM waveform controls heating;

[0095] Strategy 2: Both heating rods are heated at full capacity;

[0096] Strategy 3: Both heating rods have a duty cycle of T t / T d PWM waveform controls heating;

[0097] Temperature control results are as follows Figure 3 As shown, from Figure 3 It can be seen that all three control strategies can make the test environment temperature reach 150°C and maintain it near this temperature. In terms of heating time, strategy three takes the longest time, and strategy two takes the shortest time, indicating that the heating rod adopts full-load heating mode, which is conducive to rapid temperature rise.

[0098] In order to compare the accuracy of strategy 1 and strategy 2, Figure 3 A partial zoom display is performed, that is, the test environment temperature is stable at the target temperature of 150°C from 80s to 100s, as shown in the figure. Figure 4 As shown, from Figure 4 It can be seen that the maximum absolute error of strategy 1 is slightly smaller than that of strategy 2, that is, strategy 1 has higher temperature control accuracy;

[0099] In order to compare the accuracy of strategy 2 and strategy 3, we also Figure 3 A partial zoom display is performed, that is, the test environment temperature is stable at the target temperature of 150°C from 60s to 100s, as shown in the figure. Figure 5 As shown, from Figure 5 It can be seen that the maximum absolute error of strategy 1 is slightly smaller than that of strategy 3, and the error change frequency of strategy 1 is higher, which means that strategy 1 not only has higher temperature control accuracy but also faster response;

[0100] In summary, both heating rods have a duty cycle of T t / T d The PWM waveform control heating has no advantages in terms of rapid heating or control accuracy. If rapid heating is required, strategy 1 is selected, that is, one heating rod is heated at full load and the other heating rod is heated at a duty cycle of T. t / T d The PWM waveform controls the heating; if precise control is required, select strategy 2, that is, both heating rods are heated at full load.

[0101] The above conclusions are simulated using Matlab R2014a program. The simulation interface is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, and the Matlab program is as follows:
