Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of calculating water flow measurement distance based on water flow orientation, and in particular to a method and system for calculating water flow velocity value and flow velocity deflection angle in a water pump flow channel. Background Art
[0002] Under ideal conditions, the water in the water flow channel in front of the water pump flows in the same direction as the central axis. However, in reality, due to the rotation of the water pump blades on the downstream side of the flow channel, the interaction between the rotating blades and the water transfers energy to lift the water from a low place to a high place, so the flow distribution in the upstream water flow channel becomes more complex and chaotic, resulting in errors in the actual theoretical calculations and the inability to truly reproduce the actual situation. How to grasp the water flow velocity and actual flow direction in the on-site flow channel is of guiding significance for the subsequent analysis and research on the operating status of the water pump, and provides a reference basis for improving the analysis of water pump efficiency. This is also not proposed in the prior art.
[0003] There is a lack of actual measurement technology for the analysis of the water flow velocity and direction in the on-site flow channel. Currently, we rely on CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation, which uses numerical solutions to the differential equations that control the flow of water fluids to obtain the discrete distribution of the flow field of water fluids in a continuous area, thereby approximately simulating the fluid flow. This technology uses a computer to do a "virtual" experiment to simulate the actual fluid flow. When using this software analysis method, some boundary conditions need to be preset. If the boundary conditions are slightly different from those on site, the simulation results will be quite different. Therefore, the flow velocity and flow direction simulated by CFD simulation can only be used as a reference and cannot be considered to be completely consistent with the actual situation. Summary of the invention

[0053] like Figure 1-5 The ultrasonic propagation time method is a method for calculating the velocity of each layer based on the forward and reverse propagation time of ultrasonic waves in the fluid. Since the velocities overlap, in order to more clearly represent the technical solution of the present invention, color distinction is used. In this embodiment, a pair of transducers A1 and A2 are arranged, and the length of the sound channel is L , the channel angle is , installed horizontally on both sides of the flow channel, is the average axial velocity on the sound channel line, is the speed of ultrasound in still water, such as Figure 1 shown.
[0054] For a pair of transducers in the same channel, the propagation time of ultrasonic waves from the downstream to the upstream transducer , the propagation time from the upstream to the downstream transducer , due to the projection of water velocity on the sound channel line The influence of the two propagation times in the same channel is different, and the ultrasonic propagation process obtains the following set of equations:
[0055] ;
[0056] Where: ——Voice tract length, m; ——Sound speed, in m / s; ——projected velocity of the acoustic channel, in m / s; ——The propagation time of ultrasound in the reverse direction, in seconds; ——The propagation time of ultrasound in the downstream direction, in seconds; ——Voice channel angle, in degrees.
[0057] Furthermore, the average axial velocity of the water flow is obtained ,
[0058] ;
[0059] Where: ——The difference between the propagation time of ultrasound in the downstream direction and the upstream direction, in seconds;
[0060] As a further improvement, the transducer channels A and B are arranged in a cross-symmetrical manner, and two axial flow velocity values are obtained by distribution. , ,like Figure 2 ,get:
[0061] ;
[0062] ;
[0063] ;
[0064] Therefore, the actual velocity component on the axis is ,
[0065] ;
[0066] in, , ——are the channel angles of transducer channels A and B, ——the deflection angle of flow direction to the axial direction; is the actual water flow rate;
[0067] The present invention utilizes cross-channels to eliminate the cross-flow effect and obtains the actual water flow rate. The above method can be used to preliminarily measure the axial velocity component, but the disadvantage is that the actual flow direction and velocity value cannot be obtained. As a creative further improvement, in order to obtain the real-time actual flow direction and velocity value, the two axial velocity values obtained are used according to the above cross-arranged sound channels. , As the judgment basis and known parameters, it is further deduced and obtained.
[0068] Furthermore, assuming that the actual water flow velocity is not parallel to the axis of the flow channel, the velocity vector is analyzed in the direction of channel A and channel B respectively. The actual water velocity Can be decomposed into axial flow velocity and the transverse velocity perpendicular to the axial direction .
[0069] First, according to the two axial flow velocity values obtained and The direction of the lateral flow velocity is determined by the size relationship between them;
[0070] Analyze the direction of channel A, assuming that there is an actual water flow velocity in the direction of channel A that is not parallel to the channel axis. , axis flow velocity Corresponding to the axis flow velocity , lateral flow velocity Corresponding to the lateral flow velocity ;
[0071] Analyze the direction of channel B, assuming that there is an actual water flow velocity in the direction of channel B that is not parallel to the channel axis. , axis flow velocity Corresponding to the axis flow velocity , lateral flow velocity Corresponding to the lateral flow velocity ;
[0072] Specifically, if , then there is no transverse flow component;
[0073] when When , there is a transverse flow component, and the transverse flow velocity is calculated according to the following two situations :
[0074] (1) , lateral flow velocity Projected flow velocity and axial flow velocity in the direction of channel A The projected flow velocity in the direction of channel A is in the opposite direction, and the lateral flow velocity is calculated according to the following formula , (see Figure 3 );
[0075] ;
[0076] ;
[0077] so, ;
[0078] (2) , lateral flow velocity Projected flow velocity and axial flow velocity in the direction of channel A The projected flow velocity in the direction of the sound channel A is in the same direction, and the lateral flow velocity is calculated according to the following formula ;
[0079] ;
[0080] ;
[0081] so, ;
[0082] when When , there is a transverse flow component, and the transverse flow component is calculated according to the following two cases ;
[0083] (1) , lateral flow velocity Projected flow velocity and axial flow velocity in the direction of channel B The projected flow velocity in the direction of channel B is in the same direction, and the lateral flow velocity is calculated according to the following formula (See Figure 4 );
[0084] ;
[0085] ;
[0086] so, ;

[0088] ;
[0089] ;
[0090] so: ;
[0091] According to the above analysis of the A and B channels, the lateral flow velocities of the two components are calculated respectively. , In theory, the two are equal, but due to the existence of measurement errors, there may be differences between the two. In order to improve accuracy, further, take the lateral flow velocity , The arithmetic mean of the lateral velocity is ; ;
[0092] Combined axial flow rate and lateral velocity , for synthesis, see Figure 5 , get the real flow velocity and the deflection angle of the flow direction to the axial direction :
[0093] ;
[0094] .
[0095] The invention is based on the time-difference ultrasonic flowmeter arranged in a cross-channel arrangement. The two axial flow velocity values measured in real time by the flowmeter are used as the basis for judgment and as known parameters. The real-time actual flow velocity and flow direction are further derived in combination with the formula of the present invention. The implementation method can be implemented using a software program without the need for human participation in the calculation.
