In order to ensure the normal operation of the system equipment, the working state of the pulverized coal conveying pipeline and the chimney needs to be monitored in real time. If the traditional pitot tube is used for monitoring, it is easy to cause blockage, thereby leading to inaccurate measurement or even no measurement. In addition, the fluid flow rate in the pulverized coal conveying pipeline or the chimney is low. If the traditional pitot tube is used for monitoring, the differential pressure of the total pressure and the static pressure that can be sensed is small, thereby leading to a limited flow rate range of the detected flow rate and a problem of insufficient sensitivity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] To make the purposes, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. The components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0026] Therefore, the detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings below is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present application, but only represents selected embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor based on the embodiments in the present application are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0027] In the flue application scenarios containing a large amount of particulate matters in the thermal power industry, the steel industry, the cement industry, and the like, measuring the flow velocity of the fluid in the flue is an important part, which relates to the stability and safety of the overall operation of the system equipment. The technical solutions of the embodiments are described taking the low flow velocity flue application scenario containing a large amount of particulate matters in the thermal power industry as an example, but the protection scope is not limited to the thermal power industry, and is also applicable to the low flow velocity fluid detection scenarios containing a large amount of particulate matters in other fields.

[0028] The traditional pitot tube is an S-shaped pitot tube or an L-shaped pitot tube. The total pressure detection hole of the traditional pitot tube is directly opposite the flow direction of the fluid. If there are particulate matters in the fluid, the particulate matters are easy to be directly blown into the total pressure detection hole, causing blockage, so that the measurement cannot be performed or the measurement is inaccurate. In addition, in the low flow velocity flue application scenario, for example, the flue gas flow velocity is lower than 5 m / s, the pressure difference between the total pressure and the static pressure sensed by the traditional pitot tube is small, so that the flow velocity range detected is limited. If the traditional pitot tube is forcibly applied to the detection of a lower flow velocity fluid, there will be problems such as insufficient sensitivity and large measurement error.

[0029] Based on this, the present application provides a pitot tube and a flow velocity detection system. The pitot tube has a physical anti-blocking function, can increase the flow velocity of the fluid to change the pressure at the total pressure detection hole, can sense a lower flow velocity, and can normally work in a low flow velocity flue containing a large amount of particulate matters.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 1 The flow velocity detection system includes a pitot tube 1 and a differential pressure sensor 2. The pitot tube 1 is used to transfer the total pressure and the static pressure of the flow velocity of the fluid. The differential pressure sensor 2 is used to sense the pressure difference between the total pressure and the static pressure of the flow velocity of the fluid.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 2, Figure 2 Figure 3 The pitot tube 1 includes a wind-blocking bottom plate 11, a wind-blocking side plate 12, a total pressure transfer pipe 13, and a static pressure transfer pipe 14. ​

[0032] The wind deflector side plate 12 is mounted on the wind deflector bottom plate 11 and forms a wind collecting cavity A together with the wind deflector bottom plate 11; the middle part of the wind deflector side plate 12 is provided with a total pressure detection hole 15, and the first air outlet 124 and the second air outlet 125 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the total pressure detection hole 15; the inner surface of the wind deflector side plate region where the first air outlet 124 and the second air outlet 125 are located is gradually tapered in the direction towards the first air outlet 124, the second air outlet 125 and the total pressure detection hole 15, forming a tapered structure, and the tapered structure is funnel-shaped when viewed from the angle opposite to the total pressure detection hole 15.

[0033] One end of the total pressure transmission pipe 13 is communicated with the total pressure detection hole 15, and the other end is communicated with the high-pressure end of the differential pressure sensor 2.

[0034] The static pressure transmission pipe 14 is arranged on the side of the wind deflector bottom plate 11 away from the wind deflector side plate 12, and the static pressure detection hole 16 is arranged at the end of the static pressure transmission pipe 14 close to the wind deflector bottom plate 11, and the other end is communicated with the low-pressure end of the differential pressure sensor 2. From the structure, the static pressure detection hole 16 can avoid the flow direction of the flue gas blown out from the first air outlet 124 and the second air outlet 125, so as to better sense the static pressure.

[0035] The pitot tube 1 is used to detect the flow rate in the flue containing particulate matter. When in use, the opening of the wind collecting cavity A of the pitot tube 1 is directed towards the direction of the flue gas flow, the wind deflector side plate 12 of the wind collecting cavity A blocks the particulate matter in the flue gas and makes it fall, and the tapered structure of the wind collecting cavity A speeds up the flue gas and guides it to be discharged at the first air outlet 124 and the second air outlet 125. At this time, the flue gas after being speeded up enters the total pressure detection hole 15 of the pitot tube 1, flows through the total pressure transmission pipe 13 and enters the high-pressure end of the differential pressure sensor 2, so as to realize the total pressure detection of the fluid. At the same time, the static pressure detection hole 16 away from the wind deflector side plate 12 avoids the fluid interference of the air outlet and only senses the static pressure, so that the low-pressure end of the differential pressure sensor 2 senses the fluid static pressure. Finally, the fluid flow rate can be calculated according to the pressure difference between the fluid total pressure and the fluid static pressure and the calibration coefficient of the pitot tube, so as to realize the detection of the flue containing a large amount of particulate matter at a low flow rate, and the pitot tube 1 will not be blocked.

[0036] The technical scheme of the embodiment improves the structure of the traditional pitot tube 1, avoids the total pressure detection hole 15 directly facing the flow direction, makes the pitot tube 1 have a physical anti-blocking function, can improve the fluid flow rate to change the pressure at the total pressure detection hole 15, can sense a lower flow rate, and can normally work in the flue with a low flow rate and containing a large amount of particulate matter.

[0037] The ability of the flue gas flow rate to be increased is related to the calibration coefficient of the pitot tube, and the calibration coefficient of the pitot tube is related to the structural design of the pitot tube 1. In order to obtain the corresponding ability of the flue gas flow rate to be increased, in a preferred embodiment, the wind-blocking side plate 12 is formed by a plurality of surrounding plates connected to each other, the wind-blocking side plate 12 includes a first surrounding plate 121, a second surrounding plate 122 and a third surrounding plate 123 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first surrounding plate 121, the total pressure detection hole 15 is arranged on the first surrounding plate 121 and located in the central region of the first surrounding plate 121, the first exhaust port 124 is arranged on the second surrounding plate 122 and located in the central region of the second surrounding plate 122, and the second exhaust port 125 is arranged on the third surrounding plate 123 and located in the central region of the third surrounding plate 123. The included angle between the first surrounding plate 121 and the second surrounding plate 122 is greater than 90° and less than 120°, and within this angle range, the greater the included angle between the first surrounding plate 121 and the second surrounding plate 122, the stronger the ability of the flue gas flow rate to be increased, and the greater the calibration coefficient of the pitot tube; the included angle between the first surrounding plate 121 and the third surrounding plate 123 is greater than 90° and less than 120°, and within this angle range, the greater the included angle between the first surrounding plate 121 and the third surrounding plate 123, the stronger the ability of the flue gas flow rate to be increased, and the greater the calibration coefficient of the pitot tube. By adopting the structural design of the pitot tube 1, the flue gas flow rate in the wind gathering cavity A is increased by more than 2 times, and the pitot tube can be applied to the measurement of fluid flow rate below 3 m / s.

[0038] Optionally, in the case that the included angles between the first surrounding plate 121 and the second surrounding plate 122 and between the first surrounding plate 121 and the third surrounding plate 123 are determined, the smaller the aperture of the first exhaust port, the greater the calibration coefficient of the pitot tube, and the smaller the aperture of the second exhaust port, the greater the calibration coefficient of the pitot tube.

[0039] Optionally, in order to better realize the wind gathering effect and increase the total pressure that the total pressure detection hole 15 can sense, the included angle between the wind-blocking side plate 12 and the wind-blocking bottom plate 11 is greater than or equal to 90° and less than or equal to 120°.

[0040] Optionally, the wind-blocking side plate 12 further includes an auxiliary surrounding plate 126 connected to the second surrounding plate 122 and the third surrounding plate 123, the auxiliary surrounding plate 126 can be formed by a plurality of surrounding plates spliced with each other or be a circular arc-shaped surrounding plate. The auxiliary surrounding plate 126, the second surrounding plate 122, the third surrounding plate 123 and the first surrounding plate 121 form the wind gathering cavity A, and the shape of the wind-blocking bottom plate 11 is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the wind gathering cavity A.

[0041] In other embodiments, the second surrounding plate 122, the third surrounding plate 123 and the auxiliary surrounding plate 126 can all be arc-shaped, the inner surfaces of the second surrounding plate 122 and the third surrounding plate 123 gradually shrink in the direction towards the first exhaust port 124, the second exhaust port 125 and the total pressure detection hole 15, forming a closing structure to realize the wind gathering effect.

[0042] Using the improved pitot tube 1, the fluid direction can be changed to avoid the particulate matter in the flue gas from entering the total pressure detection hole 15, and the corresponding multiple of the wind speed can be increased, so that the pitot tube 1 can be applied to lower flow rate flue gas detection. Compared with the traditional pitot tube 1, the lower limit of the wind speed measurement of the improved pitot tube 1 can reach 3 m / s, and the lower limit of the flow rate measurement is increased by 40%.

[0043] In order to remove the blockage on the total pressure transmission pipe 13 pipeline, further improve the anti-blocking ability of the flow rate detection system and the detection accuracy, the flow rate detection system is also provided with a back blowing assembly, that is, the total pressure detection pipeline and the static pressure detection pipeline are purged by the back blowing gas source to avoid dust accumulation.

[0044] As shown in Figure 3 In the specific structure design, the back blowing assembly includes a first switching valve 31, a total pressure back blowing pipe 32 and a back blowing gas source; the first switching valve 31 has a first air port 311, a second air port 312 and a third air port 313, and the first switching valve 31 can be actuated to make the first air port 311 communicate with one of the second air port 312 or the third air port 313; the total pressure transmission pipe 13 communicates with the first air port 311, one end of the total pressure back blowing pipe 32 communicates with the second air port 312, and the high pressure end of the differential pressure sensor 2 communicates with the third air port 313; the other end of the total pressure back blowing pipe 32 communicates with the back blowing gas source.

[0045] In the application process, when the total pressure is measured by the differential pressure sensor 2, the first switching valve 31 is actuated to make the first air port 311 communicate with the third air port 313; when the total pressure transmission pipeline is purged by the back blowing gas source, the first switching valve 31 is actuated to make the first air port 311 communicate with the second air port 312, so that the back blowing gas source reaches the second air port 312 of the first switching valve 31 through the total pressure back blowing pipe 32, and then flows out from the first air port 311 to blow to the wind collecting cavity A of the pitot tube 1 through the total pressure transmission pipe 13.

[0046] Optionally, in order to realize the purging of the static pressure detection pipeline and further improve the anti-blocking ability of the flow rate detection system and the detection accuracy, the back blowing assembly further includes a second switching valve 34 and a static pressure back blowing pipe 35; the second switching valve 34 has a fourth air port 341, a fifth air port 342 and a sixth air port 343, and the second switching valve 34 can be actuated to make the fourth air port 341 communicate with one of the fifth air port 342 or the sixth air port 343; the static pressure transmission pipe 14 communicates with the fourth air port 341, one end of the static pressure back blowing pipe 35 communicates with the fifth air port 342, and the low pressure end of the differential pressure sensor 2 communicates with the sixth air port 343; the other end of the static pressure back blowing pipe 35 communicates with the back blowing gas source.

[0047] During application, when the static pressure is measured by the differential pressure sensor 2, the second switching valve 34 is activated, connecting the fourth vent 341 with the sixth vent 343. When the static pressure transmission pipe 14 is purged by the backflush air source, the second switching valve 34 is activated, connecting the fourth vent 341 with the fifth vent 342. In this way, the backflush air source reaches the fifth vent 342 of the second switching valve 34 through the static pressure backflush pipe 35, and then flows out from the fourth vent 341, passing through the static pressure transmission pipe 14 and blowing into the air-gathering chamber A of the Pitot tube 1.

[0048] Optionally, the backflush air source includes a backflush compressed air tank 331 and an air compressor 332. The air compressor 332 is connected to the backflush compressed air tank 331, and the backflush compressed air tank 331 is connected to the other end of the total pressure backflush pipe 32. The air compressor 332 can improve the power of the backflush air source and achieve a better purging effect.

[0049] The technical solution of this embodiment improves the structure of the traditional Pitot tube, avoiding direct alignment of the total pressure detection port with the incoming flow direction. This gives the Pitot tube a physical anti-clogging function and increases the fluid velocity, thereby changing the pressure at the total pressure detection port. It can sense even lower flow velocities and operate normally in low-velocity flues containing a large amount of particulate matter. Compared to the traditional Pitot tube, the improved Pitot tube achieves a wind speed measurement lower limit of 3 m / s, and a flow velocity measurement lower limit improved by 40%.

[0050] Furthermore, the flow rate detection system can also purge the detection pipeline through the backflushing component to prevent dust from accumulating on the Pitot tube and the detection pipeline, thereby better achieving the anti-clogging function and improving the detection accuracy of low fluid flow rates.

[0051] Based on the flow velocity detection system provided in the above embodiments, this application also provides a flue gas velocity detection method.

[0052] The method for detecting flue gas velocity includes the following steps:

[0053] S1: Obtain the calibration coefficient of the Pitot tube, which is obtained through wind tunnel testing;

[0054] S2: Insert the Pitot tube into the flue, so that the opening of the air-gathering chamber faces the direction of flue gas inflow, and the bottom plate of the wind deflector is perpendicular to the direction of flue gas inflow.

[0055] S3: Obtain the pressure difference between the total pressure detection port and the static pressure detection port of the Pitot tube sensed by the differential pressure sensor;

[0056] S4: The flue gas velocity is calculated based on the Pitot tube calibration coefficient and the pressure difference.

[0057] Where V is the fluid velocity, k is the Pitot tube calibration coefficient, ρ is the fluid density, and P全压 P is the total pressure measured by the total pressure detection port 静压 P is the static pressure measured by the static pressure detection port.

[0058] When the smoke flow rate is measured using the pitot tube of the above embodiment, according to the Bernoulli equation of ideal incompressible gas, the sum of the kinetic energy, potential energy and pressure energy of unit fluid is a constant, which can be expressed by formula one: Wherein, p is the fluid density; g is the acceleration of gravity; P is the pressure energy of the fluid; V is the fluid velocity; C is the total energy of unit fluid. In the case of constant gravitational potential energy, the sum of the kinetic energy and pressure energy of the fluid is also a constant, and the height difference of the pitot tube during measurement can be ignored, which meets the condition of constant gravitational potential energy.

[0059] The total pressure measured by the total pressure detection port is P 全压 , the static pressure measured by the static pressure detection port is P 静压 , and formula two is obtained according to the Bernoulli equation:

[0060] The calibration coefficient of the improved pitot tube is k, and the specific value is obtained by wind tunnel test. The calibration coefficient k of the pitot tube is brought into formula two, and formula three is obtained by transformation: Thus, the smoke flow rate is calculated.

[0061] The technical scheme of the embodiment, when the improved pitot tube and the flow rate detection system are used to measure the fluid flow rate of the flue gas pipeline or chimney of the thermal power industry, the smoke is blown to the wind collecting cavity of the pitot tube, the wind blocking side plate of the wind collecting cavity blocks the smoke and the particulate matters therein, avoids the smoke directly blowing to the total pressure detection hole, and avoids the free falling of the particulate matters. After the smoke flow direction is changed, the smoke is blown out from the exhaust port. At the same time, due to the converging structure of the wind collecting cavity, the wind speed is increased, the fluid pressure entering the total pressure detection port is increased, so that the pitot tube can be applied to the detection of lower fluid flow rate.

[0062] Further, the flow rate detection system can also blow the detection pipeline through the back blowing assembly to avoid the accumulation of smoke dust on the pitot tube and the detection pipeline, so as to better realize the anti-blocking function and improve the detection accuracy of the fluid flow rate.
