Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of space environment simulation technology, specifically relating to an aerosol-cloud interaction verification experimental chamber system and simulation method. Background Technology

[0002] Environmental and climate change are major challenges facing human society today. Understanding the physical and chemical processes of the Earth's atmosphere and their interactions with solid and liquid aerosols, and exploring the formation and transformation mechanisms of atmospheric composite pollution and its interaction with meteorological factors, are fundamental to studying the ecological, health, and climate effects of air pollution, and to developing methods for predicting and forecasting regional severe weather and sudden environmental events. Currently, there are three main methods for monitoring clouds / aerosols: ground-based monitoring, airborne monitoring, and satellite monitoring. Relevant details are described in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN101769831B, entitled "A Collection Device for Fog and Automatically Sorted Aerosols and Its Application Method," and Chinese Patent Publication No. CN106556559A, entitled "A Monitoring Method, Device, and System for Clouds / Aerosols." However, ground-based monitoring methods can only obtain cloud / aerosol data at single points, making it difficult to acquire information on large-scale, vertically distributed clouds. Airborne monitoring can use lidar, but it cannot measure the temporal changes of clouds / aerosols over a fixed area, and its operating time is limited by adverse weather and air traffic control. Satellite monitoring targets large-scale global data, but its resolution is poor, and its orbital limitations prevent continuous monitoring of fixed points. Therefore, establishing an experimental chamber system for verifying the interaction between aerosols and clouds / fog, and artificially simulating the aerosol and cloud / fog environment to provide an effective spatial environment for research on the interaction between aerosols and clouds / fog, is particularly important. Currently, there are no design precedents for such experimental chamber systems in the industry; therefore, how to develop an experimental chamber system for verifying the interaction between aerosols and clouds / fog, so as to realize the artificial simulation and control of the aerosol and cloud / fog environment, and thus conduct multiphase atmospheric (photo)chemical research such as aerosol and cloud chemistry, has become a pressing technical challenge to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Preferably, it also includes a high-temperature cleaning step, specifically including:

[0032] S5-1.

The refrigerant pump 26 and the second three-way valve TWV2 are connected to the pipeline between the low-temperature brine unit and the low-temperature refrigerant storage tank 27. The low-temperature refrigerant storage tank 27 is connected to both the return pipeline and the inlet pipeline.

[0060] The first three-way valve TWV1 and the second three-way valve TWV2 need to be bypassed, that is, the side outlets should be arranged according to... Figure 1 The connection shown is used to achieve energy saving through recirculation and to reduce the system's cooling or heating input.

[0061] Based on the above, the present invention also includes an electronic control component, which automatically collects the corresponding signals of each sensor group according to the system process, and then turns on / off or adjusts the actions of each actuator; at the same time, it is also used to upload the system's operating status and various parameters to the host computer.

[0062] When working, refer to Figure 2As shown, the sensor group includes a first temperature and humidity sensor HT1, a second temperature and humidity sensor HT2, and a pressure sensor P1 arranged sequentially along the axial direction of the experimental chamber 10.

The repressurization assembly 50 includes at least one automatic air valve and one manual air valve, which will not be described in detail here.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the actual workflow of this invention is as follows:

[0065] A simulation method for an experimental chamber system for verifying the interaction between aerosols and clouds includes the following steps:

[0066] S1. Low-temperature environment simulation steps:
