Description

Technical Field

[0024] The present invention will be further described according to the accompanying drawings:

[0025] This temperature control system is suitable for the determination of chemical stability of energetic materials such as gunpowder and nitrocellulose, and is also suitable as a methyl violet test system. Figures 1 to 7As shown, the system includes a box 1, a remote controller 2, a temperature control tank 3, a heating device 4, a refrigeration device 5, a circulation device 6, a temperature sensor 7, an overflow pipe 8, a drain pipe 9 and a drain valve 10. In the figure, the remote controller 2 is installed on the outside of the box 1 and is used to adjust the temperature of the oil in the temperature control tank 3. The remote controller 2 has a switch button and a temperature control button. The temperature control tank 3 is installed on the upper side of the inside of the box 1 and is used to hold the oil. Multiple temperature control tanks 3 can be set in the system. Independent temperature control schemes or unified temperature control schemes can be adopted between the temperature control tanks 3. The heating device 4 is installed in the heating cavity 301 at the bottom of the temperature control tank 3 and is used to heat the oil inside the temperature control tank 3; the refrigeration device 5 is installed on the lower side of the inside of the box 1 and is used to cool the oil inside the temperature control tank 3; the ring device 6 is installed on the lower side of the inside of the box 1 and is used to evenly stir the oil inside the temperature control tank 3; the temperature sensor 7 is installed on the side wall of the temperature control tank 3 and is used to detect the temperature of the oil in real time.

[0026] It should be noted that when multiple temperature-controlled tanks 3 adopt independent temperature control solutions, each temperature-controlled tank 3 needs to be equipped with an independent heating device 4, cooling device 5, circulation device 6, temperature sensor 7, overflow pipe 8, drain pipe 9, and drain valve 10. When multiple temperature-controlled tanks 3 adopt a unified temperature control solution, the multiple temperature-controlled tanks 3 are connected in series through pipelines, and only one set of heating device 4, cooling device 5, circulation device 6, temperature sensor 7, overflow pipe 8, drain pipe 9, and drain valve 10 is used.

[0027] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the inlet of the overflow pipe 8 is set at the top of the side wall of the temperature control tank 3, and the outlet of the overflow pipe 8 is set at the bottom of the box body 1. The overflow pipe 8 is used to prevent excessive oil from overflowing from the temperature control tank 3; the inlet of the drain pipe 9 is set at the bottom of the temperature control tank 3, and the outlet of the drain pipe 9 is set at the bottom of the box body 1. The drain pipe 9 is used to discharge the oil.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the temperature-controlled tank 3 is internally mounted with a metal liner 302, the bottom of which contacts the heating chamber 301. The metal liner 302 is unmodified. The heating device 4 utilizes a stainless steel enclosed electric heater and includes a first heating tube 401, a second heating tube 402, and a third heating tube 403. These three tubes are mounted side by side within the heating chamber 301.

[0029] In this embodiment, refrigeration device 5 employs air-cooling and includes a heat exchanger 501, a compressor 502, and an evaporator 503. Heat exchanger 501 is positioned at ventilation hole 103 of housing 1; compressor 502 and evaporator 503 are both positioned within housing 1, with evaporator 503 installed proximate to temperature-controlled tank 3. It should be noted that the air-cooling refrigeration solution utilizes existing technology, and this solution only specifies the placement. In specific embodiments, an air-cooling fan may be positioned on evaporator 503 for rapid cooling.

[0030] In this embodiment, the circulation device 6 includes a liquid inlet pipe 601, a liquid outlet pipe 602 and a circulation pump 603. One end of the liquid inlet pipe 601 is connected to the outlet of the circulation pump 603, and the other end of the liquid inlet pipe 601 is arranged on the upper part of the side wall of the temperature control tank 3. One end of the liquid outlet pipe 602 is arranged at the bottom of the temperature control tank 3, and the other end of the liquid outlet pipe 602 is connected to the inlet of the circulation pump 603. The oil can be evenly stirred by the circulation device 6 to ensure temperature uniformity.

Specifically, the AI-516 PID adjustment chip is adopted, wherein: the remote controller 2 includes the YUDIAN AP-14 remote communication chip, which can realize remote data transmission and remote monitoring. Specifically, the remote controller 2 can be connected to the host computer through serial communication, Bluetooth communication or ZigBee communication to realize remote control.

[0034] The specific operation steps are as follows:

[0035] 1. Correctly adjust the over-temperature protection temperature according to the working temperature.

[0036] 2. Equipment Startup: Depending on the application, connect the power supply to oil tanks 1 and 2 (operating simultaneously or individually), and close the air switch. Connect the power supply to the remote control cabinet, and press the start button for oil tanks 1 and 2 (operating simultaneously or individually) to start the equipment. (The local control buttons function the same as the remote control console buttons, which can start and stop the equipment simultaneously.)

[0037] 3. When the remote console is powered on, the local instrument cannot set the temperature. If you need to operate the instrument locally, just turn off the circuit breaker of the remote console.

[0038] 4. The interval between turning the power on and off must not be less than one minute to ensure the normal reset of electrical components; when the equipment is not used for a long time, the main power must be turned off.

[0039] 5. Do not heat or cool flammable, explosive, volatile, or corrosive items. Specifically, a test tube rack is provided in the temperature control tank, and multiple test tubes are installed on the test tube rack, in which the energetic materials to be tested are placed. For example, when testing methyl violet, after setting the temperature, use test paper to test its volatile gas.

[0040] 6. The outer surface paint layer is strictly prohibited from contacting any organic solvents (alcohol, banana oil, etc.), and can only be scrubbed with neutral detergent and water.

[0041] 7. Please clean the device regularly to avoid malfunction.

[0042] The system can achieve a temperature control range of 0°C to 150°C, a temperature control fluctuation of ±0.2°C, and a temperature control uniformity of ±0.2°C. This temperature control system can accurately and quickly measure the chemical stability of a variety of energetic materials.
