[0078] The pre-embedded mounting seat 4 can adopt various structure forms, and the structure with an arc-shaped insertion groove is preferred. Specifically, the pre-embedded mounting seat 4 comprises a bottom plate surface 5, an outer arc surface 6 and an arc-shaped insertion groove 7, and the bottom plate surface 5, the outer arc surface 6 and the arc-shaped insertion groove 7 are fixed as a whole and can be processed by casting or welding.

Taking a set of open channel flow measuring device provided with three flow measuring units as an example, the three flow measuring units are respectively denoted as a first flow measuring unit 8, a second flow measuring unit 9 and a third flow measuring unit 10. Therefore, two strip-shaped notches 3 are arranged on the inner wall of one side of the water channel side wall 1 at a certain interval, one of the two strip-shaped notches 3 is installed with the first flow measuring unit 8, and the other strip-shaped notch 3 is installed with the second flow measuring unit 9.

The third flow measuring unit 10 is correspondingly arranged with the first flow measuring unit 8 and the second flow measuring unit 9.
[0080] The arc-shaped insertion slot 7 is provided with strip-shaped notches distributed along the length direction, that is, the side of the arc-shaped insertion slot 7 close to the ditch water body is provided as an open surface, the arc-shaped sensor shell 11 is installed in the arc-shaped insertion slot 7, and the stability after fixing is good. The radius of the circular arc of the arc-shaped insertion slot 7 is the same as the radius of the outer circular arc of the arc-shaped sensor shell 11, and the arc-shaped sensor shell 11 can rotate by a certain angle after being installed in the arc-shaped insertion slot 7, so as to adjust the orientation of the sensor.
[0081] The arc-shaped sensor shell 11 is a long strip-shaped cavity structure with one end open, the inside of the arc-shaped sensor shell 11 is provided as a sensor installation cavity 12 for installing the sensor. A plurality of sensor detection holes 14 are formed in the outer wall of the arc-shaped sensor shell 11 corresponding to the open surface of the arc-shaped insertion slot 7, a plurality of sensor clamping fixing grooves 15 are arranged on the inner wall of the arc-shaped sensor shell 11, a flow measuring sensor 16 is fixed on the sensor clamping fixing groove 15, the flow measuring sensor 16 adopts an ultrasonic transducer, a radar flow measuring sensor or other sensors, and the detection end of the flow measuring sensor 16 is located in the sensor detection hole 14.

[0083] The method of the present application will be described in detail in combination with the specific embodiments as follows:
[0084] Taking three flow measuring units as an example, first, connect the three flow measuring units, check the waterproof sealing condition, and establish an electrical connection between the flow measuring units and the controller on the bank of the water channel. Then, sequentially insert and install the flow measuring units in the pre-buried mounting seat, adjust the angle of the flow measuring unit according to the detection requirements of the flow sensor, and meet the two-way shooting requirements of multiple flow measuring units. Then, the distance parameter L of the equipment is measured in the air without flowing water between the flow measuring units on both banks. The attitude difference of the measuring points is obtained through the attitude sensor integrated in the flow measuring unit, and the specific 3D coordinate position of the flow sensor for different depth detection signals or detection wave transceivers is calculated through 3D attitude analysis, and the accurate distance between the flow sensors of each measuring point in the flow measuring unit is further obtained. Since the flow velocity of each layer of the open channel is quite different, then the flow velocity Vi of each water layer is obtained by layer-by-layer measurement, i∈M, from top to bottom.
[0085] In order to eliminate the influence of ultrasonic wave velocity c on the measurement result of the to-be-measured fluid velocity v, the sound velocity elimination algorithm is used to weaken the influence of sound velocity in measurement, avoid the serious influence of sound velocity in the presence of silt, and effectively prevent the measurement error from being too large. The sound velocity elimination algorithm is as follows:
[0086] When the ultrasonic wave is incident from the probe A, the ultrasonic wave is received at the probe B, and the following relationship exists:
[0087]
[0088] When the ultrasonic wave is incident from the probe B, the ultrasonic wave is received at the probe A, and the following relationship exists:
[0089]
[0090] Subtracting the above two formulas gives:
[0091]
[0092] It can be seen that the expression of the flow velocity v no longer contains the ultrasonic wave velocity c, so as to avoid the interference of the change of the ultrasonic wave velocity c caused by the influence of temperature on the measurement result, greatly improve the accuracy of the related ultrasonic wave measurement data, and ensure the measurement accuracy.
[0093] In addition, the calculation formula of the sound velocity can be expressed by the sound pressure, that is, the sound pressure (p) 2 = sound intensity (I) x medium density (p) x sound velocity (C). Wherein, the sound intensity unit is W / m 2 , the density unit is kg / m 3 , and the sound velocity is m / s;
[0094] Adaptive filter sound velocity elimination algorithm: according to the statistical characteristics of the input signal automatically adjust the parameters of the filter. In flow measurement, the adaptive filter algorithm can be used to filter out the noise signal caused by the change of sound velocity or interference frequency component, improve the accuracy of flow signal.
[0095] First, take the first layer of the rectangular pipe of the measurement section as an example. In a group of ultrasonic transducers, the first ultrasonic transducer emits sound waves reflected to the second ultrasonic transducer through the reflection plane, and the transmission time t of the sound wave along the gas flow direction is collected ab ; The second ultrasonic transducer emits sound waves reflected to the first ultrasonic transducer through the reflection plane, and the transmission time t of the sound wave against the gas flow direction is collected. Then list the relationship between the propagation time and the flow velocity v, and eliminate the sound velocity c after association to get the formula of the flow velocity v as follows:
[0096]
[0097] Where l is the distance from the ultrasonic transducer to the reflection point, and a is the angle between the ultrasonic propagation direction and the horizontal direction. Finally, according to the above method, the flow velocities Vi of the multiple layers of rectangular pipes are measured, and the estimated value of the average flow velocity of the pipe is obtained by using the mathematical function relationship. Multiply the flow area A of the measurement section, and the final flow Q can be obtained. The formula is: Q=VA, where k is less than or equal to the number of layers of the rectangular pipe.
[0098] Finally, the area of the water layer Si=f(L,K,P) is calculated through the distance K of the flow sensor on the split type measuring device and the attitude quaternion data P (w,x,y,z) of the transceiver equipment. According to the sampling interval ΔT and the total measurement time T, the relatively accurate cumulative flow Q can be calculated.
[0099] The average flow velocity at any time is:
[0100]
[0101] The average flow at any time is: ;
[0102] Since the total sampling number is:
[0103]
[0104] Therefore, the total flow is:
[0105]
[0106] Considering that there is a large integral error in rectangular integration, the formula can be modified as:
[0107]
[0108] The application maximizes the flow velocity detection precision, reduces the influence of main factors such as machinery and time delay on the flow velocity measurement, and significantly improves the measurement precision by building an ultrasonic cross-section flow velocity measurement model and a flow measurement noise reduction model and placing a flow velocity-area water measurement intelligent algorithm.
[0109] The above is a further detailed description of the application made in combination with the specific embodiments, and cannot be considered as limiting the specific embodiments of the application to these descriptions. Simple modifications and replacements made by those skilled in the art without departing from the concept of the application should be considered as belonging to the protection scope of the application.
