Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of temperature and humidity regulation in scientific research experiments, and more specifically, to a device and method for controlling temperature and humidity in a closed cavity. Background Art
[0002] High-voltage electrical equipment includes transformers, circuit breakers, gas-insulated switchgear (GIS), etc. When a high-voltage electrical equipment fails, it is difficult to detect the internal fault due to its complex internal structure and the darkroom environment of high voltage and high pressure. At present, industrial endoscopes play an increasingly important role in the detection of high-voltage electrical equipment with their advantages of non-destructive detection and intuitive observation.
[0003] Industrial endoscopes are precision instruments, and their working environment has an important impact on the accuracy and reliability of the test results. Industrial endoscopes generally work in an environment with a relative humidity of 5% to 95%. An overly humid environment may cause equipment corrosion and short circuits, while an overly dry environment may cause electrostatic interference. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct experiments to study the detection performance of industrial endoscopes under different humidity conditions, in order to lay the foundation for optimizing endoscope design and developing industrial endoscopes with better detection performance. Therefore, it is particularly important to provide a stable humidity control device for scientific research experiments related to endoscope performance testing.
[0004] The humidity control device in the prior art has an intelligent temperature and humidity controller, which can automatically detect the temperature and humidity values in the environment and automatically adjust according to the set rules, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of the equipment. However, there are also some problems.
[0005] The patent with the authorization announcement number CN204438389U provides a temperature and humidity control device for a confined space, which can maintain constant air temperature and humidity in the confined space, and can also realize the exchange of internal and external air. It is particularly suitable for artificial incubators for plants, and can also be used in other confined spaces. However, it only adjusts the temperature and humidity through ventilation ducts, and the adjustment efficiency is low. It takes a long time to reach the required temperature and humidity; and it is only applicable to confined spaces with air as the experimental gas. When other gases are needed as experimental gases, this patent is not applicable.
[0006] The patent application with application publication number CN116908079A provides a test box with comprehensive temperature and humidity control, which includes a temperature and humidity test box, which is equipped with a faucet, three water storage containers for water supply, a water supply pipe, a water storage tank and a water supply assembly; this application tests the aging time of the raw tape in the actual use environment by controlling the temperature and humidity test box to simulate the summer and winter environment. However, the test box can only use air as the test gas.
[0007] When using an industrial endoscope to detect faults inside high-voltage electrical equipment, you may encounter a variety of different working atmospheres, such as air, nitrogen, sulfur hexafluoride, etc. These atmospheres have a certain impact on the performance and usage of the endoscope. Therefore, inventing a temperature and humidity control device in a closed cavity so that it can use air as the experimental gas and other gases as the experimental gas to perform performance testing on the industrial endoscope has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.
