Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of groundwater level measurement, and in particular relates to a method and a device for measuring water level in a deep well. Background Art
[0002] As an important water resource, groundwater can be assessed to provide data for rational exploitation, monitor water level changes, and formulate water resource protection strategies. At the same time, it can understand the stability of geological structures and prevent geological disasters such as ground subsidence. Water resource detection can also determine the appropriate irrigation machine and water volume to improve the utilization efficiency of water resources. Therefore, its water level monitoring is of great significance to water resource management, geological research, environmental protection and other fields. Accurately measuring groundwater levels is crucial to understanding the dynamic changes of groundwater resources, rational development and utilization, and preventing related geological disasters.
[0003] At present, there are two main measurement technologies. One is the traditional measurement method, such as the steel ruler water level meter method and the clock method. The traditional measurement method is mainly used in small groundwater monitoring wells. It is simple to operate and low in cost, but the measurement results are not accurate enough and cannot be used for large and complex groundwater detection. The other is automatic detection technology, which is mainly used in large groundwater monitoring networks. It can monitor in real time, automatically monitor, and has high data accuracy, such as pressure water level measurement and acoustic water level measurement.
[0004] The basic principle of ultrasonic level measurement is that it consists of an ultrasonic transducer (probe), an electronic processing unit and a display unit. When working, the ultrasonic transducer emits an ultrasonic wave of a certain frequency, which propagates in the liquid and is reflected when it encounters the liquid surface. The reflected wave is received by the same transducer and converted into an electrical signal. By measuring the time required for the ultrasonic wave to be emitted and received (i.e., the transit time), combined with the propagation speed of the ultrasonic wave in the liquid, the propagation distance of the ultrasonic wave can be calculated, and then the distance from the liquid surface to the transducer can be determined, thereby obtaining the liquid level height.
[0005] However, the main problem in the practical application of sonic (ultrasonic) water level measurement is that the time required to measure the ultrasonic wave from emission to reception (i.e., transit time) is uncertain due to the complex measurement environment, narrow wellhead, many debris in the well, water quality and other environmental factors. The time to transmit the ultrasonic wave and the time to receive the ultrasonic wave affect the accuracy of transit time monitoring, and thus affect the accuracy of the entire water level measurement. For example, Chinese patent CN202011551013.X discloses an ultrasonic ranging sensor, which discloses in detail a measurement method processor for correcting the ultrasonic velocity according to the temperature value, comparing the time difference between the ultrasonic echo envelope and the transmission wave envelope, and calculating the position of the liquid level. The specific calculation of the position of the liquid level is D=V×Δt, 2, wherein D is the distance from the liquid surface to the transducer, Δt is the time difference between the echo envelope and the front edge of the transmission wave envelope, and the time Δt determines the first time the acoustic wave collector receives the acoustic wave signal and the second time the acoustic wave signal is received as the measurement time. However, in actual monitoring, due to the influence of the complex environment in the well, the time detection has errors, and it is difficult to determine whether the received signal is the signal at the time of transmission.
[0006] Currently, there are few reports on accurately determining the transit time and improving the accuracy of water level monitoring. Summary of the invention
[0007] To solve the above problems, the purpose of the present invention is to improve the accuracy of water level monitoring and provide a method and device for measuring water level in a deep well with high reliability, high monitoring accuracy, low cost, strong versatility and easy use.

Step 4: Data monitoring: each time a sound wave signal is emitted, the water level depth is recorded and measured. , and displayed on the microprocessor.
[0010] In the method of the present invention, a timing module is provided in the microprocessor to record the time difference between the two sound wave receivers receiving the sound wave signal emitted by the sound wave transmitter. t, the microprocessor is equipped with a CPU processing module, which calculates the water depth according to the formula algorithm. The microprocessor processes signals quickly, responds quickly, and measures quickly and accurately. The timing accuracy of the timing module meets the measurement accuracy requirements, the computing speed and accuracy of the CPU processing module can quickly and accurately calculate the distance, and the display of the display module is clear and intuitive, making it easy to read the measurement results.
[0011] Furthermore, in step 1, a sound wave transmitter is set on the water surface to transmit sound wave signals upward, and two sound wave receivers are set on the well surface and on the same horizontal plane, one of which is set in the air to receive sound wave signals in the air, and the other is set on the well wall to receive sound wave signals on the well wall; the sound wave transmitter and the sound wave receiver signals are connected to a microprocessor.

The propagation time of the ultrasonic wave in the well is used to determine the water level, and the microprocessor is used to process the signal and calculate the water depth.
[0012] Note: The distance between the acoustic wave receiver A and the acoustic wave receiver B is fixed and known, and the distance is short. Compared with the length L of the water level, the distance can be ignored.

The timing accuracy of the timing module meets the measurement accuracy requirements, the computing speed and accuracy of the CPU processing module can quickly and accurately calculate the distance, and the display of the display module is clear and intuitive, making it easy to read the measurement results.
[0015] Furthermore, the acoustic wave transmitter comprises an acoustic wave transmitting component, a driving circuit, a transmitting antenna, and a shell. The acoustic wave transmitting component and the driving circuit are arranged in the shell. The transmitting antenna is arranged at the top of the shell. The output end of the driving circuit is connected to the input end of the acoustic wave transmitting component, and the output end of the acoustic wave transmitting component is connected to the transmitting antenna. A floating board is arranged at the bottom of the shell. The floating board is arranged on the water surface. First, the output end of the driving circuit is connected to the input end of the acoustic wave transmitter. The electrical signal generated by the driving circuit is directly transmitted to the acoustic wave transmitter through wires or circuit wiring. The stability of the connection and good electrical contact must be ensured to avoid signal loss and interference. For example, a suitable plug, socket or welding method is used for connection. Then, the output end of the acoustic wave transmitter is connected to the transmitting antenna, and a suitable coupling element can be arranged between the two to achieve efficient electromagnetic coupling connection. The shell is waterproof, and the connection between the shell and the antenna needs to strengthen waterproofness.
[0016] Furthermore, two timers are set in the microprocessor, including timer A and timer B. When the sound wave transmitter transmits a sound wave, the two timers start timing. When the sound wave receiver A receives the sound wave signal, timer A stops timing and records the time as t1; when the sound wave receiver B receives the sound wave signal, timer B stops timing and records the time as t2.

[0018] Furthermore, the sound wave signal emitted by the sound wave transmitter is a pulse signal of a specific frequency and wavelength. The preferred frequency of the ultrasonic wave is about 40kHz. The frequency of the emitted sound wave signal is specific and easy to record.
[0019] The present invention provides a method for measuring water level in a deep well, aiming to provide the industry with innovative and practical technical solutions, which have the advantages of high reliability, high monitoring accuracy, low cost, strong versatility, and easy use. Compared with the prior art method of calculating water depth by using the refraction of a mirror, the accuracy is improved, which is mainly reflected in that, affected by the environment in the well, there are many refraction surfaces, and there are several refraction surfaces on the well wall, which leads to the need for continuous optimization of the measurement results, a large workload, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and high cost. At the same time, the time of emitting an ultrasonic wave and the time of receiving the ultrasonic wave are uncertain, and the equipment and method used in this patent can effectively solve this problem.

[0020] The monitoring accuracy is high. The measurement method adopts a new design concept to improve the detection accuracy. Since the emission time of the same ultrasonic wave is consistent, it is easy to monitor. The time when different receivers receive the same ultrasonic wave signal is also easy to monitor. Compared with the method in the prior art, the time detection error is small, so the detection result is highly accurate.
[0021] Low cost. Acoustic wave measurement mainly relies on acoustic wave transmitters and receivers. The manufacturing process of these components is relatively mature. The equipment is mature and stable, with low energy consumption and little damage, which reduces the frequency of equipment replacement and has a relatively low cost.
[0022] The device of the present invention has strong versatility and can be applied to deep wells of various types and depths, thereby reducing the cost of additional development or purchase of special equipment to adapt to different environments.
[0023] It is easy to use, adopts automatic monitoring, and the system runs automatically. There is no need for manual timing operation of measuring equipment, which greatly reduces the burden of manpower and can be intelligentized. For example, the water level threshold is set in the microprocessor. When the water level exceeds or falls below the set value, an alarm signal is automatically issued to remind relevant personnel to take timely measures. In flood control work, when the water level reaches the warning value, the system automatically sends an alarm to the flood control command center so that rescue can be organized in time.

Example
[0034] The water level is measured using the device of Example 1. The following steps are included: Step 1: The acoustic wave transmitter transmits an acoustic wave signal from the water surface to the wellhead. According to the actual application site, a lower frequency of 20-40kHz is generally selected. The acoustic wave signal propagated by the air and the acoustic wave signal propagated by the well wall are received on the same horizontal plane of the wellhead, and the received time difference is recorded as t;
[0035] Step 2: Based on the time difference t, the propagation speed of sound waves in the air is v1, the propagation speed of sound waves in the well wall is v2, the water depth is calculated, Depth by Formula Knowable
