Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of gas detection, and more specifically, to a gas concentration detection method with excellent environmental adaptability. Background Art
[0002] Various types of flammable gases have been widely used in various fields. There are more and more reports of explosion accidents caused by gas leaks. For gas safety, flammable gases need to be detected in more and more scenarios. Traditional detection methods include electrochemical method, catalytic combustion method, gas-sensitive semiconductor technology, etc. Spectral absorption method based on optical absorption technology is gaining more and more attention as a new method. In particular, infrared absorption method and tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy have good development prospects with high detection sensitivity, large range and non-contact measurement.
[0003] At present, relevant institutions have disclosed relevant technical solutions for optical gas detection devices, but optical gas detection devices are easily affected by the environment. In particular, the detection device needs to be installed in a harsh environment, such as -40℃~70℃. Both the light emitter and the receiver will be affected by the temperature, causing data drift. The inversion of gas concentration will also be affected by the environment. The existing solutions are usually fitted based on empirical formulas such as linear fitting. The above methods are too simple to adapt to a wide temperature range, or a large number of segmented fittings are required. The calibration process is cumbersome and prone to errors, which is not conducive to mass production. For example, my country has a vast territory, and the air pressure in high-altitude areas is only 600hPa. Gas detection equipment produced in low-altitude areas will have serious data distortion when it reaches high-altitude areas. Summary of the invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a gas concentration detection method with excellent environmental adaptability.
[0005] The present invention provides a gas concentration detection method with excellent environmental adaptability, which is achieved through the following technical scheme. The concentration detection device includes an emission module, an absorption chamber, a receiving module and a hardware circuit; the absorption chamber is used for the flow of the gas to be measured, and the emission module is used for emitting a specific light beam, and the emitted light beam is in a divergent, collimated or convergent state; the receiving module is used for receiving the light after passing through the absorption chamber, and converting the light signal carrying the concentration information into an electrical signal; the divergent module and the receiving module are electrically connected to the hardware circuit; the hardware circuit is provided with a control unit, a light emitting driving unit, a receiving and collecting unit, a plurality of temperature collecting units and a temperature control unit.
[0006] Furthermore, the absorption chamber also includes an environmental detector, including but not limited to a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor and a pressure sensor.
[0007] Furthermore, the emission module includes an emission temperature detector and an emission temperature controller in addition to the light emitter.
[0008] Furthermore, the receiving module includes a receiving temperature detector and a receiving temperature controller in addition to the receiver.
[0009] The gas concentration detection device drives the light emitter of the light emitting module to emit a characteristic light beam through the light emitting driving unit of the hardware circuit. After the light beam passes through the absorbing gas and is absorbed by the gas to be tested, the light beam carries the absorption concentration information and reaches the receiver of the receiving module. The receiver converts the light signal carrying the concentration information into an electrical signal. The electrical signal reaches the receiving and collecting unit of the hardware circuit and is converted into a digital signal. It enters the control unit for demodulation and inversion into a concentration value.
[0010] The present invention is a gas concentration control method that can adapt to harsh environments; it includes gas concentration environment adaptation control, transmitting module temperature control, and receiving module temperature control;
[0011] The gas concentration environmental adaptation control obtains the current temperature through the environmental detector installed in the absorption gas chamber, and the temperature is converted into a digital signal by the environmental acquisition unit and then input into the control unit compensation inversion algorithm; the real-time gas temperature will be brought into the inversion algorithm to correct the absorption line intensity, absorption linear function, and gas molar volume to ensure that the concentration value is true and accurate.
[0012] The temperature control of the emission module is achieved by controlling the working temperature of the light emitter to maintain the power temperature and the emission wavelength to be stable. The current temperature of the light emitter is collected by a temperature detector, and the temperature is converted into a digital signal by a temperature collection unit and sent to the control unit. The control unit calculates the temperature read and controls the temperature controller of the emission module through the temperature control unit to adjust the temperature of the light emitter, thereby completing closed-loop control and achieving a stable light-emitting state.
[0013] The receiving module temperature control is to maintain the photoelectric conversion efficiency and reduce noise by controlling the receiver temperature. The current receiver temperature is collected by a temperature detector, and the temperature is converted into a digital signal by a temperature collection unit and sent to the control unit. The control unit calculates the read temperature and controls the temperature controller of the receiving module through the temperature control unit to adjust the temperature of the receiver, thereby completing closed-loop control and achieving a stable receiving state.
[0014] In the process of gas concentration environmental adaptation control in the control method of the present invention, the absorption process of the characteristic light beam by the gas is described by the following formula:
[0015] I(t)=I0e -S(T)φ(ν)PCL
[0016] Among them, I0 is the light intensity emitted by the transmitter, S(T) is the absorption line intensity, φ(v) is the corresponding linear absorption function, P is the current atmospheric pressure of the environment, C is the concentration of the gas to be measured, and L is the optical path length of the absorption chamber.

[0018]
[0019] Where T0 is room temperature, such as 293K, and T is the temperature obtained by the environmental detector. Q(T) is the molecular partition function, h is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light in vacuum, E″ is the molecular transition energy, and k is the Boltzmann constant.
[0020] The temperature correction relationship of the linear absorption function in the gas concentration environment adaptation control process in the control method of the present invention is as follows:
[0021]
[0022] Where γ0 is the half-width at half-height of the absorption line, and n is the temperature coefficient.
[0023] Furthermore, the molar volume of the gas to be measured
[0024]
[0025] The molar volume of air at temperature T is
[0026] V air =N A P / RT
[0027] Among them, N A is Avogadro's constant, P is the current air pressure, R is the gas constant, and T is the temperature obtained by the air temperature sensor.
[0028] Furthermore, the VOL of the gas
[0029]
[0030] Through the gas concentration environment adaptation control method, the absorption line intensity, absorption linear function, gas molar volume, etc. are corrected from the mechanism of action.
[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
