Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of pipe testing, and in particular to a comparative testing device, a testing method and an evaluation method for thermal conductivity of floor heating pipes. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing application of floor radiant heating in the field of home heating, people's performance requirements for floor heating pipes are also getting higher and higher. However, the thermal conductivity of ordinary pipes such as PERT and PPR is relatively low. When used in the heating field, it will affect the heat dissipation rate of floor heating pipes. Therefore, the thermal conductivity of floor heating pipes has gradually become an important evaluation indicator of floor heating pipe products, and it is also a quality item that floor heating pipe manufacturers need to focus on controlling during the production process. However, due to the diverse production processes of floor heating pipes, different manufacturers, different raw materials, different formulas, and different equipment produce floor heating pipes with varying thermal conductivity. Therefore, it is necessary to establish effective inspection and analysis methods for the quality control of the thermal conductivity of floor heating pipes in order to effectively regulate the market and ensure the quality stability of the thermal conductivity of floor heating pipe products.
[0003] At present, the quality inspection method for the thermal conductivity of floor heating pipes can evaluate the thermal conductivity of floor heating pipes by measuring the thermal conductivity coefficient of floor heating pipes. However, the equipment for measuring the thermal conductivity coefficient is expensive and the operation is complicated. In addition, when comparing the thermal conductivity of multiple floor heating pipe samples, the thermal conductivity coefficient of each pipe sample must be tested separately before comparative evaluation. There are problems such as long comparative test cycle, low test efficiency and high test cost. In addition, this detection method requires first preparing samples of the raw materials of the floor heating pipes and then comparing and evaluating the quality of the thermal conductivity by measuring the thermal conductivity coefficient. The quality of the thermal conductivity cannot be directly compared and evaluated by preparing samples of the floor heating pipes. The sample preparation is complicated, the comparison is not intuitive, the quality inspection evaluation method is cumbersome, and the comparison of the thermal conductivity of multi-layer composite pipes of different materials is limited. Therefore, the current detection method for the thermal conductivity of floor heating pipes still has some shortcomings, and also restricts the company's rapid inspection, quality evaluation and improvement of the quality assurance capabilities of the product during the production process of floor heating pipes, affecting the quality stability of the thermal conductivity of floor heating pipe products.

After completing the recording of the initial temperature T1, end temperature T and time t of the liquid in the tube, take out the tube and click the reset button to clear the data display and reset the temperature display timer to wait for a new test.
[0024] The circuit board is also provided with a memory and a communication unit, which are electrically connected to the microprocessor through wires respectively. The memory is used to store the signals processed by the microprocessor. The records in the memory can be retrieved through the input keyboard and displayed on the display. The communication unit can connect and send the signals processed by the microprocessor to external devices.
[0025] A power supply is also provided in the housing. The power supply is a lithium battery. The power supply is connected to the microprocessor and provides power to each unit on the circuit board through the microprocessor.
[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the cover 2 is provided with sealing grooves 23 and 24 near the two workstation openings. After the test pipe 6 passes through the workstation openings and enters the constant temperature water tank 1, the sealing end cap 7 on the upper end of the test pipe 6 tightly fits into the sealing grooves.

Step 5: When the sealing end cap on the upper end of the pipe to be tested triggers the left and right contacts, the timing module starts timing; Step 6: As time goes by, the constant temperature water outside the pipe continuously transfers heat to the liquid inside the pipe, causing the temperature of the liquid inside the pipe to continue to rise. When the temperature of the liquid inside the pipe reaches the preset temperature T, the timing module stops timing and records the time t, which is the time taken for the liquid in the pipe to go from the initial temperature T1 to the end temperature T, and displays it on the time display; Step 7: Use the temperature measurement and display timer corresponding to station 1 to record the time t1 taken by the liquid in the pipe at station 1 from the initial temperature T1 to the final temperature T.
