DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 An ultrasonic flowmeter, equipped with an ultrasonic transducer, measures flow rate by utilizing the propagation characteristics of ultrasonic waves in fluids. An ultrasonic transducer, commonly known as a "probe," converts acoustic energy into electrical signals and vice versa.

[0038] The ultrasonic flowmeter is equipped with a pair of ultrasonic transducers, which alternately transmit and receive ultrasonic waves. By measuring the propagation time of high-frequency sound pulses, the downstream sound pulses are accelerated by the airflow, while the upstream sound pulses are decelerated. The propagation time difference is related to the average axial flow velocity of the gas. Therefore, numerical calculation technology is used to calculate the average axial flow velocity and flow rate of the gas passing through the gas ultrasonic flowmeter under working conditions.

[0039] As shown in Figure 1, assuming that the ultrasonic propagation distance between the two transducers is L, the angle between the ultrasonic propagation direction and the axis is θ, and the speed of sound of the ultrasonic wave in the static gas is c0, then when the gas flow rate in the pipeline is u, the sound speeds c1 and c2 of the ultrasonic wave propagating in the forward and reverse directions along the airflow are respectively:

[0040] (1)

[0041] (2)

[0042] Sound speed difference: (3)

[0043] (4)

[0044] The above formula is the basic principle expression of the time difference method flow measurement. In the formula, t1 and t2 are the acoustic time when the ultrasonic wave propagates in the forward direction and reverse direction respectively. 、 are the acoustic delays caused by circuits, cables, and transducers during forward and reverse propagation of ultrasound, respectively. As can be seen from the above formula, the velocity difference method offers significant advantages. The measured flow velocity u is independent of the medium's acoustic velocity c0 (i.e., its composition). This is highly advantageous for practical measurements in production settings.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 The present application provides a distributed flue measurement device, comprising a first mounting plate 1, a plurality of air ducts 6 and a plurality of ultrasonic detection units 4; the first mounting plate 1 is rectangular or circular, and a plurality of first air holes are opened inside the first mounting plate 1 to form honeycomb-shaped holes; a plurality of the air ducts 6 in contact with and connected to the rear side wall of the first mounting plate 1 are arranged on the rear side of the first mounting plate 1, and each air duct 6 is arranged corresponding to one of the first air holes; each of the ultrasonic detection units 4 is respectively arranged on the inner wall of the corresponding air duct 6.

[0046] Optionally, each ultrasonic detection unit 4 is an ultrasonic flowmeter. The ultrasonic measurement of flue gas is to extend an ultrasonic flowmeter equipped with an ultrasonic transducer into the measured point of the flue through the flue sampling hole, and calculate the gas flow rate and the gas flow rate under standard conditions by measuring the sound velocity difference, pressure, temperature and humidity of the ultrasonic wave propagating in the forward and reverse directions of the airflow at the measured point. A pair of ultrasonic transducers can realize single-point measurement as a mono-channel flowmeter, and two or more can realize multi-point measurement as a multi-channel flowmeter. According to the distribution of the flue flow field, different positions can be selected for single-point or matrix distribution. All collected data are aggregated into the signal processing unit, and the flow rate of the flue gas passing through the measured cross-sectional area of ​​the entire flue is calculated by the flow integrator, and the relevant physical quantities are displayed. This system is a continuous monitoring system that continuously monitors the flue gas parameters (temperature, pressure, flow rate or flow, humidity) of a fixed source in real time.

[0047] From the measured gas flow rate in the pipeline, the instantaneous gas flow rate Q under working conditions can be obtained:

[0048] (5)

[0049] In the case of multiple points, it is necessary to combine the weight coefficient based on whether the flue is circular or square. In the formula, D is the pipe diameter, and it is converted into the instantaneous flow rate Q0 of the gas under standard working conditions:

[0050] (6)

[0051] Where P, T, and Z are the pressure, temperature, and compressibility factor of the gas under working conditions in the pipeline, respectively; P0, T0, and Z0 are the pressure, temperature, and compressibility factor of the gas under standard working conditions, respectively.

[0052] By integrating the instantaneous flow rates continuously measured on-site, the cumulative flow rate of the gas in the pipeline can be obtained. In actual applications, since the flow velocity within the pipeline cross section is not absolutely uniform and a certain flow field distribution exists, ultrasonic flowmeters fully consider the influence of this flow field distribution and make corrections for it. See Appendix A (Normative) for the output parameter calculation method.

[0053] Optionally, by real-time, continuous monitoring of the carbon dioxide concentration in fixed-source flue gas, combined with ultrasonic measurement of pipeline gas flow, pressure, temperature, and humidity, the cumulative carbon dioxide emissions are calculated internally by the integrator, forming a continuous carbon dioxide emission monitoring system, or CO2-CEMS for short. The use of ultrasonic flowmeters in multiple air ducts can meet the needs of multi-point measurement, dividing the gas flow path inside the smoke gallery or chimney into multiple effective metering areas. Using independent gas measurement flow channels for distributed metering, flow synthesis is performed through scientific mathematical models, thereby achieving accurate measurement of the overall flow rate. At the same time, the ultrasonic detection unit installed in each air duct can be easily disassembled for independent calibration and traceability, and the entire duct can also be calibrated and traced.

[0054] Alternatively, taking the measurement of chimneys or smoke corridors as an example, for each ultrasonic detection unit probe, the optional power supply is an external power supply of 9~24VDC, which can be powered by a 3.6V battery. Among the measurable gas medium parameters, the operating temperature range can be -30°C to +80°C, the SO2 concentration can be limited to 35g / m3, the measurable flow rate is limited to 0.2m / s~30m / s, the humidity environment is limited to less than <98%RH, and the ambient pressure is limited to 75kPa∽150kPa. The optional communication method for the ultrasonic detection unit probe can be selected from RS485, 4G, 5G, Bluetooth, WIFI, Ethernet, etc.

[0055] The general performance of the ultrasonic testing unit probe can at least meet the following requirements:

[0056] Resolution: 0.01 m / s;

[0057] Sampling interval: ≤1s;

[0058] Sound velocity deviation: ±0.5%.

[0059] For example, when measuring gas flow paths, prioritize representative sampling points. Prioritize easily accessible sampling locations. Prioritize convenient sampling locations. Prioritize safe and reliable sampling locations. Comply with relevant standard requirements for sampling points. Where permitted, strive to align with standard requirements. If inconsistencies exist or the locations of testing points cannot be changed, consider increasing the number of testing points.

[0060] Optionally, during the process of fixing the portable single-channel fluid measurement system, the air duct of the ultrasonic detection unit is arranged parallel to the gas flow direction of the chimney, so that the ultrasonic detection unit can accurately detect the gas flow at a preset angle.

[0061] For example, when the flow field is ideally uniform, single-point measurement and multi-point measurement have little effect on the error, but multi-point measurement can provide higher reliability. In the case of an uneven flow field, multi-point measurement can more accurately restore the flow field conditions of the gas flow channel in the flue than single-point measurement. Multi-point measurement is based on the distribution of the flue flow field, and different positions are selected for multi-point or matrix distribution, that is, two or more flow meters are installed to achieve multi-point measurement (also called multi-channel flow meters), and all collected data are summarized in the signal processing unit. The flow rate of the flue gas passing through the measured cross-sectional area is calculated by the flow integrator, and the relevant physical quantities are displayed. Optionally, if in the gas flow channel measurement of the flue, each measurement point can output the flow velocity separately, this is the advantage of the ultrasonic measurement module. In measuring the cross section of a gas flow channel, assuming the velocities at different measurement points are V1, V2, ..., Vn, the general case is (V1 + V2 + ... + Vn) / n = Vs, where Vs is the average velocity across the flue cross section, S is the cross-sectional area at the average velocity, and the operating cumulative quantity Qg = Vs * S. Qg is the operating instantaneous quantity, and Qb is the standard instantaneous quantity (Pb is 1 atmosphere, Tb is the standard condition at 20°C). The actual measured temperature is T1, and the pressure is P1. According to the gas state equation, Qb = P1 * Tb * Qg / (Pb * T1), and the standard cumulative quantity = Qb * time. The standard cumulative quantity can be accumulated by adding together the standard instantaneous quantities every second. Because each measurement point can be independent, the measured flow rate can be one or multiple, and each can be independently verified and calibrated.

[0062] Optionally, when calculating relevant physical quantities using the flow rates measured at different measurement points, the total flow rate of the gas flow channel cross section may be calculated using a mathematical average value (V1+V2+...+Vn) / n=Vs.

[0063] For example, during the sampling and detection of the chimney gas flow channel, the sampling position is preferably avoided in places that are dangerous for the detection personnel to operate. The sampling position is preferably selected in the vertical pipe section of the chimney, which can avoid the flue elbows and parts where the cross-section changes sharply. The sampling position is preferably set at a distance of not less than 6 times the diameter in the downstream direction of the elbow, valve, and reducer and not less than 3 times the diameter in the upstream direction of the above components (i.e. 3 times above and 6 times below). For a rectangular flue, its equivalent diameter D=2AB / (A+B). Where A and B are the side lengths. For gaseous pollutants, due to the relatively uniform mixing, the sampling position may not be restricted by the above regulations, but it is preferred to avoid the eddy current area. If the exhaust flow is measured at the same time, the sampling position can still be selected as above.

[0064] For example, for a circular flue, the flue can be divided into an appropriate number of honeycomb detection surfaces of similar area. When measuring with limited measurement points, each measurement point can be selected at the intersection of the centerline of each ring with equal area and two perpendicular diameter lines. One of the diameter lines is preferably located within the plane with the greatest expected concentration variation. For example, if the measurement point is behind an elbow, the diameter line is preferably located within the plane of the elbow. For flues that meet the requirements, only measurement points on the diameter line with the greatest expected concentration variation can be selected. For small flues with a diameter less than 0.3m and a relatively uniform and symmetrical flow velocity distribution that meets the requirements, the center of the flue can be used as the measurement point.

[0065] For example, for rectangular or square flues, the flue cross-section can be divided into an appropriate number of equal-sized blocks, with the center of each block serving as the measurement point. The number of blocks can be selected based on pre-set requirements. For flue cross-sectional areas less than 0.1 m², with a relatively uniform and symmetrical flow velocity distribution that meets the requirements, the center of the cross-section can be used as the measurement point.

[0066] For example, in order to ensure the quality of daily operation, each flow meter can be calibrated, maintained and verified regularly to ensure that the flow meter's measurement accuracy is maintained for a long time. A single flow meter can be maintained and calibrated by disassembly, assembly and verification. Optionally, for regular calibration, the flow meter equipment used for online continuous monitoring is zero-point calibrated at least once a year to ensure that the zero-point drift does not exceed ±1%. Optionally, for regular maintenance, it is to regularly check whether the inner cavity of the online flow meter and the ultrasonic transducer end have dirt deposits, wear or other damage that may affect the performance of the flow meter. Optionally, for regular verification, the flow meter equipment used for online continuous monitoring is calibrated at least once a month to ensure that its flow accuracy does not exceed ±1%. For example, the portable ultrasonic flow meter equipment used for reference experiments is sent to the national metrology administration for inspection at least once a year to ensure that its accuracy error meets national standards.

[0067] Batch calibration can be a regular calibration for multi-point flowmeters. For example, if there are multiple measurement points on the same chimney, a full-cycle batch calibration can be established based on the time gradient of the installation.

[0068] For example, when used in a circular gas flow channel such as a chimney, the first mounting plate 1 is designed as a whole to accommodate the circular gas flow channel of the chimney. Optionally, when installing the chimney, the circular distributed flue measurement device can be placed on the top of the chimney for ease of installation. By adding a measuring cap to the chimney, the installation and construction difficulty of the distributed flue measurement device is reduced, and subsequent verification, traceability, and inspection and calibration are also facilitated.

[0069] For example, when applied to a rectangular gas flow channel such as a chimney, the first mounting plate 1 is designed as a whole to be rectangular to adapt to the rectangular gas flow channel of the chimney.

The meshing connection between the worm 24 and the worm wheel 23 can drive the worm wheel 23 to rotate during the rotation of the worm 24, thereby realizing the driving of the rotating rod 21, so as to drive the corresponding first driving mechanism to work.

[0077] See also Figure 2 A clamping rod 26 is fixedly connected to one side of the second connecting plate 16 close to the third mounting plate 3. A mounting groove is provided at the other end of the clamping rod 26. A ball 27 is rotatably provided inside the mounting groove. By utilizing the two clamping rods 26, the friction between the ends of the clamping rods 26 and the inner wall of the smoke gallery can be reduced after the ends of the two clamping rods 26 are in contact and engaged with the inner wall of the smoke gallery, thereby facilitating the continued driving of the clamping rods 26 to move.

[0078] See also Figure 2 The upper surface of the third mounting plate 3 is fixedly connected with a sealing ring 28. The sealing ring 28 can effectively ensure the sealing effect between the third mounting plate 3 and the smoke gallery to prevent smoke from drifting.

[0079] See also Figure 2 and Figure 5 One end of the worm 24 passes through the corresponding second fixed plate 25 and is fixedly connected to the knob 29. By using the provided knob 29, the worm 24 can be driven to rotate during the process of rotating the knob 29, thereby realizing the driving of the third driving mechanism.

[0080] In summary, when the distributed flue measuring device is in use, the first mounting plate 1 and the second mounting plate 2 are inserted into the interior of the flue from the side wall of the flue, and the knob 29 is rotated. During the rotation of the knob 29, the worm 24 is driven to rotate, and during the rotation of the worm 24, the two worm gears 23 are driven to rotate. During the rotation of the two worm gears 23, the corresponding rotating rods 21 are driven to rotate respectively. During the rotation of the two rotating rods 21, the corresponding second bevel gears 22 are driven to rotate respectively. During the rotation of the two second bevel gears 22, the corresponding first bevel gears 14 are driven to rotate respectively. During the rotation of each first bevel gear 14, The corresponding internal threaded sleeve 13 is driven away from the corresponding first fixed plate 11, and during the movement of the internal threaded sleeve 13, the first connecting plate 15 and the second connecting plate 16 are driven close to the third mounting plate 3 through the sliding connection between the second strip opening and the rod wall of the L-shaped rod 19. In the process of the second connecting plate 16 approaching the third mounting plate, the corresponding clamping rod 26 can be driven to move, so that the ball 27 at the end of the clamping rod 26 can be clamped and fixed to the smoke gallery through cooperation with the third mounting plate 3, thereby ensuring the stability of the entire device and the sealing effect at the smoke gallery opening, and ensuring the normal progress of the measurement process.
