[0026] The following disclosure provides many different implementations or examples for carrying out different structures of this application. To simplify the disclosure of this application, the components and arrangements of specific examples are described below. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to limit this application.

[0027] Injection rate determines combustion efficiency, output power, etc. Measuring injection rate can calibrate the parameters of injectors and injection systems, making it easier to improve injectors and injection systems.

[0028] However, since the measuring device cannot guarantee that the fluid inside it is in a stable state, it is difficult to collect various parameters about the jet rate, and the measurement results have large errors.

[0029] Specifically, liquefied gases are easily vaporized at normal temperature and pressure, causing the liquid to partially vaporize after being ejected by the spraying component. This results in fluctuations in parameters related to the spraying rate, such as density and flow rate, making it difficult to calculate the spraying rate or leading to large errors.

[0030] To address the aforementioned technical problem of large injection rate errors, the first embodiment of this application provides an injection rate measuring device. (See [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 1The jet rate measuring device is used to test the jet rate of the jet assembly 10 installed thereon. The jet rate measuring device includes a memory 100 and a measuring component 200. The memory 100 can be connected to the jet assembly 10, and the outlet of the memory 100 can be connected to the inlet of the jet assembly 10. The measuring component 200 can connect the outlet of the jet assembly 10 and the inlet of the memory 100. The measuring component 200 includes a metering module 210, a back pressure valve 220, and a pressure sensor 230. The metering module 210 can be connected to the jet assembly 10, and the inlet of the metering module 210 can be connected to the outlet of the jet assembly 10. The inlet of the back pressure valve 220 is connected to the outlet of the metering module 210. The back pressure valve 220 is connected to the memory 100, and the outlet of the back pressure valve 220 can be connected to the inlet of the memory 100. The pressure sensor 230 can be connected to the outlet of the jet assembly 10.

[0031] The injection assembly 10 can be a liquefied gas injector.

[0032] In some embodiments, the storage 100 is a liquefied gas pressure vessel, that is, the liquefied gas is in a liquid state within the storage 100.

[0033] Specifically, when liquefied gas is injected by the injection assembly 10 into the metering module 210, transient pressure fluctuations are generated within the measuring assembly 200. The pressure sensor 230 can collect this fluctuation signal and transmit it to the control assembly for calculation of the injection rate. Further, the fluctuation signal collected by the pressure sensor 230 at a first sampling rate is p(t) Pa, the cross-sectional area of ​​the coil in the metering module 210 is A m², the speed of sound of the fluid (i.e., liquefied gas) is am / s, the density of the fluid (i.e., liquefied gas) is ρ kg / m³, and the injection rate is q = Ap(t) / aρ.

[0034] In some embodiments, the back pressure valve 220 is used to control the back pressure of the liquefied gas ejected by the injection assembly 10 in the measuring assembly 200, so that the back pressure of the liquefied gas at the temperature in the measuring assembly 200 can be greater than the vaporization pressure of the liquefied gas, so that the liquefied gas ejected by the injection assembly 10 remains in a liquid state in the measuring assembly 200.

[0035] In some embodiments, the injection rate measuring device further includes multiple pipelines for connecting the various components within the injection rate measuring device. In some embodiments, the memory 100 is connected to the injection assembly 10 via pipelines; the injection assembly 10 is connected to the metering module 210 via pipelines; the metering module 210 is connected to the back pressure valve 220 via pipelines; and the back pressure valve 220 is connected to the memory 100 via pipelines.

[0036] In the above embodiment, by providing a back pressure valve 220 within the measuring component 200, the liquefied gas can be maintained in a liquid state within the measuring component 200. Firstly, keeping the liquefied gas in a liquid state ensures that its density ρ remains constant. Therefore, during the calculation of the injection rate, it is not necessary to consider the impact of density ρ changes due to the phase change of the liquefied gas, which facilitates the calculation and improves the accuracy of the injection rate calculation results. Secondly, since liquid liquefied gas has a higher density than gaseous liquefied gas and is less compressible, transient pressure fluctuations generated within the measuring component 200 are more easily captured by the pressure sensor 230. This results in smaller measurement errors and more accurate measurement results for the injection rate measuring device.

[0037] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The injection rate measuring device also includes a booster assembly 300, the inlet of which is connected to the outlet of the memory 100. The booster assembly 300 can be connected to the injection assembly 10, and the outlet of the booster assembly 300 can be connected to the inlet of the injection assembly 10.

[0038] The pressurization component 300 can pressurize the liquefied gas that is about to flow to the injection component 10.

[0039] In the above embodiments, by setting a pressurization component 300 between the memory 100 and the injection component 10 to provide the injection component 10 with high-pressure fluid that meets the requirements, the pressure during injection can be stabilized, the influence of fluid pressure fluctuations caused by other factors on the measurement results can be reduced, the injection process can be made uniform each time, the measurement results can be more accurate, and the measurement difficulty can be reduced.

[0040] In addition, since the fluid is in the loop when the jet rate testing device is working, the pressure in the loop can be kept stable by setting up a pressurization device, thereby reducing the impact of pressure fluctuations in the loop on the signal acquisition of the pressure sensor 230.

[0041] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The measuring component 200 also includes a mass flow meter 240, which is connected to the outlet of the metering module 210 and the inlet of the back pressure valve 220.

[0042] Among them, the mass flow meter 240 is used to collect the average mass flow rate of liquefied gas in the measuring component 200, that is, the average flow rate over a certain period of time, and transmit it to the control component.

[0043] In the above embodiments, the mass flow meter 240 is configured to collect the average mass flow rate within the measurement component 200 when the pressure sensor 230 collects transient pressure fluctuations, thus complementing each other. Specifically, the control component can compare the integral value of the injection rate calculated from the average mass flow rate and the transient pressure fluctuation p(t), establish a correction coefficient, compensate for the deviation of a single metering method, and make the injection rate output by the control component more accurate. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the control component has an alarm mechanism. When abnormal conditions such as pipeline leakage or pressure wave interference occur, the signal collected by the pressure sensor 230 becomes abnormal, causing the deviation between the injection rate calculated by the control component and the average mass flow rate collected by the mass flow meter 240 to exceed a preset threshold. The control component can determine whether the measurement and calculation process is reliable through consistency verification and trigger an alarm.

[0044] In some embodiments, the jet rate measuring device further includes a collecting component 400 and a first switching component 500. The first switching component 500 has a first outlet 510 and a second outlet 520. The inlet of the first switching component 500 is connected to the outlet of the back pressure valve 220, the first outlet 510 is connected to the inlet of the memory 100, and the second outlet 520 is connected to the collecting component 400. The first switching component 500 is used to connect the outlet of the back pressure valve 220 and the inlet of the memory 100; or, it connects the outlet of the back pressure valve 220 and the collecting component 400.

[0045] In some embodiments, the collection component 400 is a waste liquid collection tank.

[0046] In some embodiments, the first switching component 500 is a reversing valve, used to connect one of the first outlet 510 and the second outlet 520 to the inlet of the first switching component 500, that is, to connect one of the inlet of the control memory 100 and the collection component 400 to the back pressure valve 220.

[0047] In some embodiments, the first switching assembly 500 includes two ball valves connected in parallel, the inlets of which are respectively connected to the outlet of the back pressure valve 220, and the outlets of the two ball valves are a first outlet 510 and a second outlet 520, respectively.

[0048] In the above embodiment, by setting up the collection component 400 and the first switching component 500, the fluid in the pipeline can be discharged from the second outlet 520 to the collection component 400, so as to facilitate the discharge of gas in the pipeline when inerting, purging and injecting liquid into the pipeline.

[0049] Specifically, during inerting, the outlet of the back pressure valve 220 is connected to the collection assembly 400 so that the inert gas can flow from the outlet of the back pressure valve 220 to the collection assembly 400 and exit the pipeline, thus preventing the gas from being introduced into the storage 100. During liquid injection, the outlet of the back pressure valve 220 is connected to the collection assembly 400 so that some of the liquefied gas can flow to the collection assembly 400 through the outlet of the back pressure valve 220, thereby venting the gas in the pipeline. During purging, the outlet of the back pressure valve 220 is connected to the collection assembly 400 to blow the purged fluid in the pipeline toward the collection assembly 400, thereby preventing the gas and fluid in the pipeline from being introduced into the memory 100.

[0050] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The injection rate measuring device also includes an inert gas source 600 and a second switching component 700. The second switching component 700 has a first inlet 710 and a second inlet 720. The first inlet 710 is connected to the outlet of the memory 100, and the second inlet 720 is connected to the inert gas source 600. The outlet of the second switching component 700 can be connected to the inlet of the injection component 10.

[0051] Specifically, the inert gas source 600 can provide inert gas to the second inlet 720 of the second switching component 700; in some embodiments, the inert gas source 600 is a nitrogen source.

[0052] In some embodiments, the second switching component 700 is a reversing valve, used to connect one of the first inlet 710 and the second inlet 720 to the inlet of the injection component 10, that is, to connect one of the outlet of the control memory 100 and the inert gas source 600 to the inlet of the injection component 10.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first switching assembly 500 includes two ball valves connected in parallel, the outlets of which are connected to the inlet of the injection assembly 10, and the inlets of the two ball valves are a first inlet 710 and a second inlet 720, respectively.

[0054] In the above embodiment, by setting an inert gas source 600 and setting a second switching component 700, the inert gas source 600 can replace the memory 100 to connect to the pipeline, so as to inertize the pipeline.

[0055] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The injection rate measuring device also includes a third switching component 800. The inlet of the third switching component 800 is connected to the outlet of the second switching component 700. The third switching component 800 has a third outlet 810 and a fourth outlet 820. The third outlet 810 can be connected to the inlet of the injection component 10, and the fourth outlet 820 is connected to the inlet of the metering module 210.

[0056] In some embodiments, the third switching component 800 is a reversing valve, used to connect one of the third outlet 810 and the fourth outlet 820 to the inlet of the third switching component 800, that is, to connect one of the inlet of the injection component 10 and the inlet of the metering module 210 to the outlet of the second switching component 700.

[0057] In some embodiments, the third switching component 800 includes two ball valves connected in parallel, the inlets of which are respectively connected to the outlets of the second switching component 700, and the outlets of the two ball valves are respectively the third outlet 810 and the fourth outlet 820.

[0058] In the above embodiment, by setting the third switching component 800, the injection component 10 that has been installed on the injection rate measuring device can be separated, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the injection component 10 and allows the inert gas to bypass the injection component 10 during purging and inerting.

[0059] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The measuring component 200 also includes a fixing member 250, which has a third inlet 251 and a fourth inlet 252. The third inlet 251 of the fixing member 250 is connected to the outlet of the injection component 10, and the fourth inlet 252 is connected to the fourth outlet 820. The outlet of the fixing member 250 is connected to the inlet of the metering module 210.

[0060] In some embodiments, the fixing member 250 is a jetter fixing base.

[0061] In the above embodiment, the spray assembly 10 is fixed by setting the fastener 250 and connecting the outlet of the spray assembly 10 with the measuring assembly 200, thereby facilitating the assembly and disassembly of the spray assembly 10.

[0062] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The pressure sensor 230 is connected to the outlet of the fixture 250.

[0063] In the above embodiment, by connecting the pressure sensor 230 to the outlet of the fixing member 250, the fixing member 250 can also serve to fix the pressure sensor 230. Additionally, it facilitates the replacement of the pressure sensor 230.

[0064] In some embodiments, the outlet of the memory 100 can be connected to the inlet of a plurality of parallel injection components 10; the injection rate measuring device includes a plurality of measuring components 200, and the outlet of each injection component 10 and the inlet of the memory 100 are connected through a measuring component 200.

[0065] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1The jet rate measuring device also includes a housing 900, which has a receiving cavity 910. A memory 100 is disposed outside the housing 900, and a measuring component 200 is disposed in the receiving cavity 910.

[0066] In the above embodiments, by placing the measuring component 200 in the receiving cavity 910, the measuring component 200 can be kept at a relatively stable temperature, thereby reducing the fluctuation of various fluid parameters and improving the accuracy of the measurement.

[0067] In some embodiments, the metering module 210 is a long-tube metering module 210.

[0068] Specifically, the metering module 210 is the Bosch long-tube method metering module 210.

[0069] Accordingly, this application also provides a method for measuring injection rate; please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 The device employs a jet rate measuring device as described in any of the above embodiments, comprising a connected memory 100, a jet assembly 10, a pressure sensor 230, a metering module 210, and a back pressure valve 220, forming a loop; the back pressure valve 220 is adjusted so that the back pressure at the outlet of the metering module 210 is greater than a first pressure, the first pressure being the vaporization pressure of the liquid; the jet assembly 10 is activated so that the liquid can be sprayed toward the metering module 210; the pressure sensor 230 acquires the signal of transient pressure fluctuation at a first sampling rate and transmits it to the control component.

[0070] The liquid is the liquid sprayed by the spraying component 10.

[0071] Among them, the forming circuit, namely the back pressure valve 220, is connected to the memory 100.

[0072] Specifically, the first sampling rate is the frequency at which the pressure sensor 230 samples. In some embodiments, the first sampling rate can be one of or a range between any two of the following: 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 3 kHz, 4 kHz, 5 kHz, 6 kHz, 7 kHz, 8 kHz, 9 kHz, 10 kHz, 11 kHz, 12 kHz, 13 kHz, 14 kHz, 15 kHz, 16 kHz, 17 kHz, 18 kHz, 19 kHz, and 20 kHz.

[0073] In the above embodiments, firstly, by connecting the memory 100, the injection assembly 10, the pressure sensor 230, the metering module 210, and the back pressure valve 220 to form a circuit, the fluid in the memory 100 can be supplied to the injection assembly 10, and the fluid ejected by the injection assembly 10 can be recovered. Secondly, the back pressure valve 220 is adjusted so that the back pressure at the outlet of the metering module 210 is greater than a first pressure, so that the liquefied gas ejected by the injection assembly 10 remains in a liquid state, facilitating the acquisition of various parameters of the liquefied gas. The back pressure being greater than the first pressure is under the same temperature conditions; that is, the first back pressure is the pressure at which the liquefied gas vaporizes when it is at the temperature within the measuring assembly 200.

[0074] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 It also includes activating a pressurization device to pressurize the liquid flowing out of the storage 100 to a second pressure before delivering it to the injection assembly 10.

[0075] The second pressure is the pressure required by the injection assembly 10.

[0076] In the above embodiments, by activating the pressurization device to provide the injection assembly 10 with high-pressure fluid that meets the requirements, the pressure during injection can be stabilized, reducing the impact of fluid pressure fluctuations caused by other factors on the measurement results, making each injection process uniform, the measurement results more accurate, and the measurement difficulty lower.

[0077] In addition, since the fluid is in the loop when the jet rate testing device is working, the pressure in the loop can be kept stable by setting up a pressurization device, thereby reducing the impact of pressure fluctuations in the loop on the signal acquisition of the pressure sensor 230.

[0078] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 This allows the mass flow meter 240 to collect the average mass flow rate at the outlet of the metering module 210 at a second sampling rate and transmit it to the control component.

[0079] Specifically, the second sampling rate is the sampling frequency of the mass flow meter 240. In some embodiments, the second sampling rate can be one of or a range between any two of the following: 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 3 kHz, 4 kHz, 5 kHz, 6 kHz, 7 kHz, 8 kHz, 9 kHz, 10 kHz, 11 kHz, 12 kHz, 13 kHz, 14 kHz, 15 kHz, 16 kHz, 17 kHz, 18 kHz, 19 kHz, and 20 kHz.

[0080] In the above embodiments, a mass flow meter 240 is used to collect the average mass flow rate to complement the transient pressure fluctuations collected by the pressure sensor 230. Specifically, the control component can compare the integral value of the injection rate calculated from the average mass flow rate and the transient pressure fluctuation p(t), establish a correction coefficient, compensate for the deviation of a single metering method, and make the injection rate output by the control component more accurate. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the control component has an alarm mechanism. When abnormal conditions such as pipeline leakage or pressure wave interference occur, the signal collected by the pressure sensor 230 is abnormal, which may cause the deviation between the injection rate calculated by the control component and the average mass flow rate collected by the mass flow meter 240 to exceed a preset threshold. The control component can determine whether the measurement and calculation process is reliable through consistency verification and trigger an alarm.
