Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sensors, and particularly to a humidity field measurement method and system. Background Art

[0002] In the field of humidity measurement, absolute humidity (AH) and relative humidity (RH) are two basic parameters for describing the water vapor content in the air. In traditional humidity measurement technologies, it mainly relies on point-type humidity sensors, such as capacitive or resistive sensors, to measure the relative humidity to reflect the environmental humidity condition. The principle of measuring humidity is based on the change of capacitance value or resistance value after the moisture-sensitive material absorbs water. However, these traditional humidity sensors have some limitations. Firstly, they are greatly affected by temperature changes and require additional temperature compensation to improve the measurement accuracy. Secondly, they can only measure the humidity value at a single point in space and cannot effectively capture the spatial heterogeneity of the humidity field caused by temperature gradients, resulting in insufficient spatial resolution of humidity detection. Thirdly, in an environment where temperature and humidity are constantly changing, the point-type sensor may not be able to reflect the humidity change in a timely and accurate manner, especially in industrial process control that requires rapid response, so its dynamic adaptability is poor. Finally, to achieve multi-point humidity detection, the existing technology needs to deploy a multi-sensor array, but there are problems such as high cost, complex installation, and difficulty in data fusion, making it difficult to achieve true humidity field reconstruction and resulting in low system integration. Therefore, the humidity sensors in the existing technology methods have the problem of being unable to accurately and efficiently measure the spatial distribution of humidity in space.

[0014] Please refer to Figure 1, as shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention application provides a humidity field measurement method, which is applied to the controller of a humidity field measurement system and is executed by an application software installed in the controller. A specific application scenario is as Figure 2 shown. The controller is respectively communicatively connected to a non-dispersive infrared module, an infrared thermal imager, and a barometric pressure sensor configured in the humidity field measurement system. The controller is a device with the functions of detecting signal acquisition, instruction transceiver, and data processing, such as an MCU chip. Then, the controller can send the humidity measurement value to an external display device through an external display device to visually display the data information; the controller can be a terminal device integrating an MCU chip and a display, such as a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a tablet computer, or a mobile phone, etc. After the controller obtains the humidity measurement value, it can directly perform visual display. As Figure 1 shown, the method includes steps S110 to S150.

[0015] S110. Construct a water vapor measurement model corresponding to the non-dispersive infrared module.

[0016] A water vapor measurement model corresponding to the non-dispersive infrared module can be constructed. The non-dispersive infrared module is configured with a reference channel sensing component and a measurement channel sensing component; the reference channel sensing component and the measurement channel sensing component respectively output a set of voltage signals. By performing digital-to-analog conversion on the voltage signal output by the reference channel sensing component, it is used as the collected reference sensing voltage, and by performing digital-to-analog conversion on the voltage signal output by the measurement channel sensing component, it is used as the collected measurement sensing voltage.

[0017] By obtaining the correspondence relationship between the humidity value, the reference sensing voltage, and the measurement sensing voltage, a water vapor measurement model is constructed. Among them, the water vapor measurement model is constructed corresponding to the non-dispersive infrared module as Figure 3 shown.

[0018] In a specific embodiment, step S110 includes sub-steps: obtaining the measurement result of the non-dispersive infrared module for measuring continuously changing water vapor concentration; setting parameters of a preset initial model according to the measurement result to obtain a corresponding water vapor measurement model.

[0019] First, the measurement result of the non-dispersive infrared module for measuring continuously changing water vapor concentration can be obtained. The measurement result includes the reference sensing voltage and the measurement sensing voltage corresponding to each water vapor concentration. By setting parameters of the initial model according to the measurement result, a corresponding water vapor measurement model can be constructed.

[0020] Specifically, according to the Beer-Lambert law, when a beam of light passes through water vapor, a part of the light energy will be absorbed by the water vapor, resulting in a decrease in the intensity of the transmitted light. Its mathematical expression can be represented by formula (1): (1); Among them, I is the transmitted light intensity, I0 is the initial light intensity, α is the water vapor absorption coefficient, c is the water vapor concentration, and L is the optical path length. It can be seen from this law that the voltage signal output by the sensing component (reference channel sensing component or measurement channel sensing component) has an exponential relationship with the concentration of the medium (water vapor). The higher the concentration, the smaller the voltage value of the voltage signal. Therefore, by measuring the magnitude of the output voltage signal, the concentration of the medium (water vapor) can be deduced.

[0021] For water vapor detection, its absorption spectrum is as Figure 4 shown, and there are main absorption peaks in the range of 2.5 μm to 2.9 μm in the near-infrared band. Based on this principle, the technical method of this application constructs a non-dispersive infrared module based on dual-channel differential infrared humidity detection, and its structure is as Figure 3 shown. After the light emitted by the infrared light source is absorbed by water vapor, it reaches the two sensing components of the non-dispersive infrared module respectively; among them, the measurement channel sensing component selects a filter with a central wavelength of 2.7 μm, which matches the absorption spectrum of water vapor molecules; the reference channel sensing component uses a filter with a central wavelength of 3.95 μm to effectively avoid the water vapor absorption peak. During the humidity measurement process, the light intensity received by the reference channel sensing component is mainly used to compensate for the influence of non-absorption factors such as light source intensity change and optical path loss on the measurement result. By comparing the two groups of induced voltages detected by the dual channels, the volume concentration c of water vapor can be accurately analyzed.

[0022] For the reference channel sensing component, its output reference induced voltage U ref ∝I ref , I ref is the light intensity received by the reference channel sensing component; for the measurement channel sensing component, its output measurement induced voltage U mea ∝I mea , I mea is the light intensity received by the measurement channel sensing component. Combining the above formula (1), the relationship formula for the reference channel can be obtained as shown in formula (2), and the relationship formula for the measurement channel is as shown in formula (3): (2); (3); Among them, U ref is the reference induced voltage, U mea is the measurement induced voltage, K ref and K mae respectively represent the transmission efficiencies of the reference channel and the measurement channel, α ref represents the absorption coefficient of the reference channel, and this value is zero here, α meaIt represents the absorption coefficient of the measurement channel, L is the optical path length (the straight-line distance between the infrared light source and the sensing component), and c is the volume concentration of water vapor.

[0023] By simplifying the above formulas (2) and (3), formula (4) can be obtained: (4); By further transforming formula (4), formula (5) can be obtained: (5); It can be seen from formula (5) that the volume concentration c of the gas is not affected by the strength of the light source power. Then, when the parameter values in formula (5) are not determined, it can be used as the initial model, where L is a fixed value, and c, U ref and U mea are all variables, and α mea , K ref and K mae are unknown parameters. Then, the specific values of the unknown parameters in the above formula can be obtained through analysis and fitting of the reference induction voltage and the measured induction voltage corresponding to each water vapor concentration. After setting the numerical values of the parameters in the initial model, the water vapor measurement model can be obtained.

[0024] S120. Calibrate the output voltage collected by the thermal imager based on the temperature change to obtain the corresponding temperature field matrix.

[0025] Furthermore, the output voltage obtained by the thermal imager for temperature detection can be obtained based on the temperature change. Then, each temperature value corresponds to a set of output voltage values of the thermal imager. Based on the corresponding relationship between the true temperature value and the output voltage value of the thermal imager, the output voltage is calibrated to construct the corresponding temperature field matrix.

[0026] In a specific embodiment, step S120 includes sub-steps: calibrating the output voltage according to the true temperature value to obtain temperature calibration information; performing spatial grid sampling on the output voltage according to the temperature calibration information to construct a discrete temperature field matrix.

[0027] Specifically, the output voltage can be calibrated according to the true temperature value, that is, a one-to-one correspondence between the output voltage and the true temperature value is established. Specifically, a high-precision blackbody radiation source can be used to perform multi-point temperature calibration on the infrared thermal imager; thus, temperature calibration information is obtained. The acquisition of this temperature calibration information is also to establish a conversion model between the output voltage of the thermal imager and the true temperature, so as to ensure that the temperature measurement error within the test range is controlled within ±0.5°C.

[0028] Based on the temperature calibration information obtained from calibration, the output voltage of the thermal imager is re-sampled spatially in a grid pattern. By performing a spatially gridded sampling of the output voltage according to the temperature calibration information, a discrete temperature field matrix T(x, y) (unit: °C) can be constructed to accurately represent the temperature distribution. Then, after determining the corresponding coordinates (x1, y1) of a point in space on the grid and the voltage value of that grid, the temperature value corresponding to the grid coordinates (x1, y1) can be analytically obtained from the temperature field matrix, denoted as T(x1, y1) (unit: °C).

[0029] S130. Measure the detection signal and the air pressure signal according to the water vapor measurement model to obtain the corresponding current actual water vapor partial pressure.

[0030] The obtained detection signal and air pressure signal can be measured according to the above water vapor measurement model to determine the current actual water vapor partial pressure. Among them, the detection signal is the signal collected by the non-dispersive infrared module, and the air pressure signal is the signal collected by the air pressure sensor.

[0031] Specifically, the detection signal includes a reference induction voltage and a corresponding measurement induction voltage. Substituting the two voltage values in the detection signal into the water vapor measurement model corresponding to formula (5), the volume concentration c of water vapor can be analytically obtained. Further determine the current actual water vapor partial pressure e = c × p, that is, multiply the volume concentration c of water vapor by the air pressure value p in the air pressure signal, so as to measure the current actual water vapor partial pressure e. The real-time air pressure p under the current environment is measured by the air pressure sensor, so as to correct the volume concentration c of water vapor and improve the accuracy of humidity measurement.

[0032] S140. Analyze the temperature signal according to the temperature field matrix to obtain the corresponding current temperature information.

[0033] Furthermore, the temperature signal obtained can be analyzed by the temperature field matrix constructed through the above steps. Among them, the temperature signal is the voltage signal obtained by the thermal imager detecting the temperatures of multiple grids in the regional space. The current temperature information obtained by the analysis includes the temperature values of each grid. The temperature field matrix can analyze the voltage signal of each grid separately to obtain a corresponding temperature value. Then, by analyzing the voltage signals of each grid through the temperature field matrix respectively, the current temperature information can be obtained. The current temperature information can be specifically expressed as T(x i ,y j ), where i is the horizontal identifier of the grid, i ∈ N and i is an integer, N is the total number of horizontal grids; j is the vertical identifier of the grid, j ∈ M and j is an integer, M is the total number of vertical grids.

[0034] S150. Calculate the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to a preset humidity calculation rule to obtain a corresponding humidity measurement value.

[0035] Calculate the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to the humidity calculation rule to obtain a humidity measurement value. The humidity measurement value includes the humidity value corresponding to each grid, so the humidity measurement value can reflect the humidity spatial distribution in the space.

[0036] In a specific embodiment, the humidity measurement value includes an absolute humidity value and / or a relative humidity value. Step S150 includes sub-steps: calculating the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to the absolute humidity calculation formula in the humidity calculation rule to obtain a corresponding absolute humidity value; calculating the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to the relative humidity calculation formula in the humidity calculation rule to obtain a corresponding relative humidity value.

[0037] Specifically, the humidity measurement value can include an absolute humidity value or a relative humidity value, and the humidity measurement value can also include both an absolute humidity value and a relative humidity value at the same time. The absolute humidity value can be obtained by calculating the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to the absolute humidity calculation formula in the humidity calculation rule. The absolute humidity value includes the absolute humidity values of each grid. The relative humidity value can be obtained by calculating the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to the relative humidity calculation formula in the humidity calculation rule. The relative humidity value includes the relative humidity values of each grid.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, calculating the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to the absolute humidity calculation formula in the humidity calculation rule to obtain a corresponding absolute humidity value includes: combining the current actual water vapor partial pressure with the temperature values of each grid in the current temperature information to obtain corresponding combined information; sequentially inputting the combined information into the absolute humidity calculation formula to calculate the absolute humidity value corresponding to each combined information.

[0039] Specifically, the current actual water vapor partial pressure can be combined with the temperature values of each grid in the current temperature information respectively. Then a set of combined information includes the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the temperature value of one grid. The obtained combined information is sequentially input into the absolute humidity calculation formula, and the absolute humidity calculation formula is shown in formula (6): (6); AH(x,y) is the absolute humidity value of the grid coordinates (x,y), M ω is the molar mass of water vapor, R is the universal gas constant, M ωBoth and R are fixed values, e is the current actual water vapor partial pressure, and T(x, y) is the temperature value at the grid coordinates (x, y).

[0040] In a specific embodiment, calculating the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to the relative humidity calculation formula in the humidity calculation rule to obtain the corresponding relative humidity value includes: calculating the temperature values of each grid in the current temperature information respectively through the saturated water vapor pressure calculation formula in the relative humidity calculation formula to obtain the saturated water vapor pressure values of each grid; analyzing the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the saturated water vapor pressure values of each grid through the analytical calculation formula in the relative humidity calculation formula to obtain the relative humidity values corresponding to each grid.

[0041] Further calculate the temperature values of each grid in the current temperature information respectively according to the saturated water vapor pressure calculation formula in the humidity calculation formula, so as to obtain the saturated water vapor pressure values of each grid. The saturated water vapor pressure calculation formula is shown in formula (7): (7); e s (T) is the saturated water vapor pressure value of the grid, and T(x, y) is the temperature value at the grid coordinates (x, y).

[0042] Further analyze the saturated water vapor pressure value and the current actual water vapor partial pressure obtained in the above steps through the analytical calculation formula in the relative humidity calculation formula, so as to obtain the relative humidity value of each grid. The analytical calculation formula is shown in formula (8): (8); RH(x, y) is the relative humidity value at the grid coordinates (x, y), e s (T) is the saturated water vapor pressure value of the grid, and e is the current actual water vapor partial pressure.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, after step S150, the method further includes the steps of: normalizing the humidity measurement value to map and obtain the normalized value corresponding to each humidity value in the humidity measurement value; mapping each normalized value respectively according to the color mapping model to obtain the color value corresponding to each normalized value; performing pixel filling on the color values of each humidity value according to the grid position corresponding to each humidity value in the humidity measurement value to generate a humidity spatial distribution image.

[0044] Further, the humidity measurement values can be normalized to obtain the normalized values of each humidity value, and the numerical range of the normalized values is [0, 1]. According to the color mapping model (such as the rainbow color scale mapping function), the normalized values are mapped to the corresponding color values. For example, the normalized value is correspondingly mapped to an RGB color value. Since the absolute humidity value includes the humidity values of each grid, the color values of each humidity value can be pixel-filled according to the grid positions of the humidity values in the absolute humidity value, so as to obtain a humidity image matrix corresponding to the absolute humidity value. The humidity image matrix can also visually present the spatial distribution of humidity in the form of a pseudo-color map. Similarly, according to the grid positions of the humidity values in the relative humidity value, the color values of each humidity value are pixel-filled, and a humidity image matrix corresponding to the relative humidity value can be obtained. Taking the obtained humidity image matrix as the corresponding humidity spatial distribution image, the humidity spatial distribution image includes one or two humidity image matrices. The humidity spatial distribution image can be sent to an external display device for display, or directly displayed on a display configured in the controller.

[0045] In the humidity field measurement method disclosed in the above embodiments, the method includes: constructing a water vapor measurement model corresponding to the non-dispersive infrared module; calibrating the output voltage collected by the thermal imager based on the temperature change and temperature calibration information to obtain the corresponding temperature field matrix; measuring the detection signal and the air pressure signal according to the water vapor measurement model to obtain the corresponding current actual water vapor partial pressure; analyzing the temperature signal according to the temperature field matrix to obtain the corresponding current temperature information; calculating the current actual water vapor partial pressure and the current temperature information according to the preset humidity calculation rule to obtain the corresponding humidity measurement value. By processing the signals collected by each module, the above method can detect the humidity measurement value including the regional humidity field distribution, improving the adaptability and reliability of humidity measurement; in the case of large regional space temperature changes, it can obtain accurate humidity measurement data reflecting the humidity spatial distribution in the space.

[0046] An embodiment of the present invention also provides a humidity field measurement system, and any embodiment of the foregoing humidity field measurement method is applied in the controller of the humidity field measurement system. Specifically, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 .

The barometric pressure sensor is electrically connected to yet another signal transmission end of the controller. A reference channel induction component and a measurement channel induction component are configured in the non-dispersive infrared module. The reference channel induction component and the measurement channel induction component respectively output induction signals and combine them into the detection signal collected by the non-dispersive infrared module.

[0048] Among them, the non-dispersive infrared module is as Figure 3 shown. The non-dispersive infrared module consists of a gas chamber, an infrared light source, a reference channel induction component, and a measurement channel induction component. The infrared light source and the induction component are respectively arranged on both sides of the gas chamber. When water vapor enters the gas chamber, the reference channel induction component can sense the light beam emitted by the infrared light source and passing through the water vapor, and the measurement channel induction component can also sense the light beam emitted by the infrared light source and passing through the water vapor. The thermal imager can adopt a thermopile array, and the thermopile array includes N×M grids, and each grid can measure the temperature independently.

[0049] In a more specific embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the first signal sampling circuit includes a first preamplification circuit and a first signal conversion circuit. The input end of the first preamplification circuit is connected to the non-dispersive infrared module, and the output end is connected to the input end of the first signal conversion circuit. The output end of the first signal conversion circuit is connected to the controller. Among them, the second signal sampling circuit includes a second preamplification circuit and a second signal conversion circuit. The input end of the second preamplification circuit is connected to the thermal imager, and the output end is connected to the input end of the second signal conversion circuit. The output end of the second signal conversion circuit is connected to the controller.

[0050] The first preamplification circuit is used to amplify the analog signal, and the first signal conversion circuit is used to convert the amplified analog signal into a digital signal. The functions of the second preamplification circuit and the second signal conversion circuit are similar.
