Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of concrete production, and in particular to a method, device, equipment and medium for controlling the bulk density of lightweight aggregate concrete production. Background Art
[0002] Bulk density refers to the mass of concrete per unit volume. In lightweight aggregate concrete, due to the use of lightweight aggregates (such as expanded perlite, foamed concrete aggregate, etc.), the bulk density of concrete is usually lower than that of traditional ordinary concrete. The bulk density directly affects the density and overall strength of concrete.
[0003] Bulk density has a direct impact on the fluidity, pumpability and workability of concrete. Too low or too high a bulk density may affect the workability of concrete. For example, too low a bulk density may make the concrete too loose, resulting in pumping difficulties or surface treatment problems; while too high a bulk density may make the concrete too viscous, increasing construction difficulties.
[0004] However, the preparation of lightweight aggregate concrete in the existing technology is difficult. Usually, it is still difficult to achieve the target bulk density after adjusting the concrete mix design parameters multiple times according to JGJ / T 12-2019 "Technical Standard for the Application of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete", and the adjustment process requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
[0005] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to deepen the understanding of the overall background technology of the present invention, and should not be regarded as acknowledging or suggesting in any form that the information constitutes the prior art already known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention
[0006] The present invention provides a method, device, equipment and medium for controlling the bulk density of lightweight aggregate concrete production, thereby effectively solving the problems in the background technology.
[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a method for controlling the bulk density of lightweight aggregate concrete production, comprising the following steps:
[0008] During the concrete mixing process, the concrete bulk density is collected;
[0009] Compare the collected bulk density value with the target bulk density value, and calculate the weight of the lightweight aggregate to be supplemented according to the difference between the collected bulk density value and the target bulk density value;
[0010] The calculated weight of light aggregate is input into the mixer for mixing. After the mixing reaches the set time, the steps of collecting the bulk density value and calculating the weight of the light aggregate to be supplemented are repeated until the collected bulk density value reaches the error range of the target bulk density value;
[0011] The final mix ratio is calculated based on the original mix ratio and the weight of the lightweight aggregate added cumulatively.
[0012] Furthermore, during the concrete mixing process, collecting the bulk density of the concrete includes:
[0013] Control the concrete to flow into the bulk density measuring cylinder to measure the bulk density value;
[0014] After measuring the bulk density value, the concrete in the bulk density measuring cylinder is input into the mixer again.
[0015] Furthermore, the calculation of the weight of the lightweight aggregate to be supplemented includes:
[0016] Determine the bulk density value that needs to be supplemented based on the difference between the collected bulk density value and the target bulk density value;
[0017] Calculate the weight of the lightweight aggregate that needs to be supplemented based on the bulk density value that needs to be supplemented, the weight of the concrete in the mixer, the collected bulk density value, and the density of the lightweight aggregate.
[0018] Further, the determination of the bulk density value that needs to be supplemented comprises the following steps:
[0019] The weight of the supplementary lightweight aggregate is calculated using the PID algorithm and the target bulk density:
[0020]
[0021] In the formula, U(t) is the bulk density that needs to be supplemented, K p , K i , K d are the proportional, integral and differential gain coefficients respectively; e(t) is the error of the current bulk density, that is, the difference between the target bulk density value and the current measured bulk density value.
[0022] Furthermore, when collecting the bulk density of concrete, the sampling is performed at a fixed sampling time interval, and the bulk density value that needs to be supplemented is:
[0023]
[0024] Wherein, u(k) is the weight of lightweight aggregate to be supplemented calculated at the kth collection, e(k) is the difference between the current bulk density and the target bulk density at the kth collection, e(k-1) is the difference between the bulk density and the target bulk density at the k-1th collection, T is the sampling time interval, e(i) is the difference between the current bulk density and the target bulk density at the ith collection, and i is 0 to k.
[0025] The present invention also includes a lightweight aggregate concrete production bulk density control device, using the above method, the device comprises:
[0026] A collection unit is used to collect the bulk density value of concrete during the concrete mixing process;
[0027] A light aggregate weight calculation unit is used to compare the collected bulk density value with the target bulk density value, and calculate the weight of the light aggregate to be supplemented according to the difference between the collected bulk density value and the target bulk density value;
[0028] The bulk density control unit is used to input the calculated weight of the light aggregate into the mixer for mixing. After the mixing reaches a set time, the steps of collecting the bulk density value and calculating the weight of the light aggregate to be supplemented are repeated until the collected bulk density value reaches the error range of the target bulk density value.
[0029] The proportion calculation unit is used to calculate the final proportion based on the original proportion and the weight of the light aggregate added cumulatively.
[0030] The present invention also includes a computer device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein when the processor executes the computer program, the method described above is implemented.
[0031] The present invention also includes a storage medium on which a computer program is stored. When the computer program is executed by a processor, the method described above is implemented.
[0032] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: during the concrete mixing process, the bulk density value of the concrete is collected in real time using a bulk density measuring device. The bulk density value represents the mass of concrete per unit volume and is an important indicator for judging the quality and mix ratio of concrete. By real-time monitoring of the bulk density and automatically adjusting the amount of lightweight aggregate added according to the target bulk density value, the bulk density of the concrete is ensured to be stable within the target range. Through continuous iterative adjustment and final mix ratio calculation, it is ensured that the produced concrete meets the design requirements, while optimizing the use of lightweight aggregate and reducing resource waste.

For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying creative work.

[0036] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the computer device of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0037] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown: A method for controlling the bulk density of lightweight aggregate concrete production, comprising the following steps:
[0039] During the concrete mixing process, the concrete bulk density is collected;
[0040] Compare the collected bulk density value with the target bulk density value, and calculate the weight of the lightweight aggregate to be supplemented according to the difference between the collected bulk density value and the target bulk density value;
[0041] The calculated weight of light aggregate is input into the mixer for mixing. After the mixing reaches the set time, the steps of collecting the bulk density value and calculating the weight of the light aggregate to be supplemented are repeated until the collected bulk density value reaches the error range of the target bulk density value;
[0042] The final mix ratio is calculated based on the original mix ratio and the weight of the lightweight aggregate added cumulatively.
[0043] During the concrete mixing process, the bulk density of concrete is collected in real time using bulk density measuring equipment. This bulk density represents the mass of concrete per unit volume and is an important indicator for judging the quality and mix ratio of concrete. By real-time monitoring of the bulk density and automatically adjusting the amount of lightweight aggregate added according to the target bulk density value, the bulk density of concrete is ensured to be stable within the target range. Through continuous iterative adjustments and final mix ratio calculations, the produced concrete is ensured to meet the design requirements, while the use of lightweight aggregate is optimized and resource waste is reduced.
[0044] In this embodiment, during the concrete mixing process, the bulk density of the concrete is collected, including:
[0045] Control the concrete to flow into the bulk density measuring cylinder to measure the bulk density value;
[0046] After measuring the bulk density value, the concrete in the bulk density measuring cylinder is input into the mixer again.
[0047] During the concrete mixing process, the control system adjusts the inflow of concrete so that the concrete flows into the bulk density measuring cylinder (such as a 1L standard bulk density measuring cylinder) for bulk density measurement. Once the bulk density value measurement is completed, the concrete in the bulk density measuring cylinder needs to be re-input into the mixer to ensure the accuracy of the calculation. After the bulk density measurement result is fed back to the central control system, the system will calculate the amount of lightweight aggregate that needs to be added based on the difference between the target bulk density value and the current bulk density value, and continue with subsequent feeding and mixing operations until the bulk density value reaches within the error range of the target value.
[0048] The weight of lightweight aggregate to be supplemented is calculated as follows:
[0049] Determine the bulk density value that needs to be supplemented based on the difference between the collected bulk density value and the target bulk density value;
[0050] Calculate the weight of the lightweight aggregate that needs to be supplemented based on the bulk density value that needs to be supplemented, the weight of the concrete in the mixer, the collected bulk density value, and the density of the lightweight aggregate.
[0051] As a preferred embodiment of the above, determining the bulk density value to be supplemented includes the following steps:
[0052] The weight of the supplementary lightweight aggregate is calculated using the PID algorithm and the target bulk density:
[0053]
[0054] In the formula, U(t) is the bulk density that needs to be supplemented, K p , K i , K d are the proportional, integral and differential gain coefficients respectively; e(t) is the error of the current bulk density, that is, the difference between the target bulk density value and the current measured bulk density value.
[0055] PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller is a feedback control algorithm widely used in automated control systems. It automatically adjusts the behavior of the controlled object by adjusting the proportional, integral and differential coefficients. In the control of the bulk density of lightweight aggregate concrete, PID control can effectively correct the deviation of the concrete bulk density to ensure that it reaches the set target value. The bulk density control method based on PID can achieve high-precision and automated bulk density control in lightweight aggregate concrete production. Through real-time feedback and dynamic correction, PID control not only improves production efficiency, but also ensures that the quality of the final concrete product meets the design standards. The implementation of this method will greatly optimize the production process, reduce raw material waste, and improve product performance and consistency.
[0056] In this embodiment, when collecting the bulk density value of concrete, the sampling is performed at a fixed sampling time interval, and the bulk density value that needs to be supplemented is:
[0057]
[0058] Wherein, u(k) is the weight of lightweight aggregate to be supplemented calculated at the kth collection, e(k) is the difference between the current bulk density and the target bulk density at the kth collection, e(k-1) is the difference between the bulk density and the target bulk density at the k-1th collection, T is the sampling time interval, e(i) is the difference between the current bulk density and the target bulk density at the i-th collection, and i is 0 to k.
[0059] When the acquisition of bulk density values is discrete rather than continuous real-time data, we need to make appropriate adjustments to the PID controller to adapt it to the characteristics of discrete data. Usually, for discrete time control systems, we use a discrete PID controller, which changes the PID control formula to a form suitable for discrete time steps. The discrete PID control method can effectively control the bulk density in lightweight aggregate concrete production, even if the data is collected discretely. By dynamically adjusting the amount of lightweight aggregate added, PID control can ensure that the bulk density accurately reaches the target value and maintain the stability of the production process.
[0060] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also includes a lightweight aggregate concrete production bulk density control device, using the above method, the device includes:
[0061] A collection unit is used to collect the bulk density value of concrete during the concrete mixing process;
[0062] A light aggregate weight calculation unit is used to compare the collected bulk density value with the target bulk density value, and calculate the weight of the light aggregate to be supplemented according to the difference between the collected bulk density value and the target bulk density value;
[0063] The bulk density control unit is used to input the calculated weight of the light aggregate into the mixer for mixing. After the mixing reaches a set time, the steps of collecting the bulk density value and calculating the weight of the light aggregate to be supplemented are repeated until the collected bulk density value reaches the error range of the target bulk density value.
[0064] The proportion calculation unit is used to calculate the final proportion based on the original proportion and the weight of the light aggregate added cumulatively.
[0065] During the concrete mixing process, the bulk density of concrete is collected in real time using bulk density measuring equipment. This bulk density represents the mass of concrete per unit volume and is an important indicator for judging the quality and mix ratio of concrete. By real-time monitoring of the bulk density and automatically adjusting the amount of lightweight aggregate added according to the target bulk density value, the bulk density of concrete is ensured to be stable within the target range. Through continuous iterative adjustments and final mix ratio calculations, the produced concrete is ensured to meet the design requirements, while the use of lightweight aggregate is optimized and resource waste is reduced.
