The first temperature sensor 13, the first pressure sensor 12, the second temperature sensor 34, and the second pressure sensor 35 are connected by an air pipe to form a closed-loop air circuit. The air pipe is provided with a three-way valve 4 and a valve 5.

The first temperature sensor 13, the first pressure sensor 12, and the aviation socket 22 are all electrically connected to the data acquisition device 11. The main body of the test box is an existing structure, and the air pressure and temperature in the test box can be adjusted.

[0025] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 2 to 4 The aviation socket 22 includes a signal aviation socket and a power aviation socket. The signal aviation socket is used for wiring to transmit electrical signals. The electrical signals include control signals and acquisition signals. The power aviation socket is used for wiring to transmit current. The number of the signal aviation socket and the power aviation socket are both 2.

[0026] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 A computer 15 and a power supply 14 for supplying power to the equipment components are installed in the test bench 1 . The computer 15 is electrically connected to the data acquisition device 11 and the aviation socket 22 .

[0027] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The number of the air nozzles 21 is 3, and they are an air inlet nozzle, an air outlet nozzle and an air venting nozzle respectively.

[0028] For specific use, see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The valve 5 of the air pipe part located in the test bench 1 is connected to the air release nozzle for releasing air, and the valve 5 of the air pipe part located in the test box 2 is connected to the external air source.

[0029] In this embodiment, the connection flange 2 and the test box 3 are detachably connected, and the detachable connection method includes but is not limited to screw and pin connection. Preferably, the connection flange 2 and the test box 3 are connected with hexagon socket screws.

[0030] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1The air storage tank 32 is provided with a third temperature sensor and a third pressure sensor, and the third temperature sensor and the third pressure sensor are electrically connected to the aviation socket 22 .

[0031] Working process of this utility model:

[0032] During the operation of the ultrasonic flowmeter environmental experiment equipment with adjustable ambient temperature and pressure, the air pipe connects the test bench 1, the air nozzle 21 of the connecting flange 2, and the components in the test box 3 to form a loop, so that the gas in the pipeline is isolated from the outside world. The flow of gas in the pipeline is realized by the air pump 33. If it is necessary to introduce gas into the pipeline, it is necessary to open the external air source and the valve 5 of the air pipe located in the test box 3 to allow the gas to enter; if the gas in the pipeline is to be released, it is necessary to open the valve 5 of the air pipe located in the test bench 1 to discharge the gas; during normal testing, the two valves are closed to ensure the air tightness of the pipeline. This design can not only ensure that the test gas does not leak, but also recycle the gas to reduce the test cost. At the same time, the two valves can be used to easily increase or decrease the gas in the pipeline to make the test simpler.

[0033] During the test, the first temperature sensor 13, the first pressure sensor 12, the second temperature sensor 34, and the second pressure sensor 35 connected to the air pipe perform real-time detection of the gas pressure and temperature in the pipe, and the third temperature sensor and the third pressure sensor connected to the gas tank 32 perform real-time detection of the pressure and temperature in the tank. Each temperature sensor and pressure sensor transmits the detected value to the data collector 11 through the wiring harness, and the data collector 11 transmits the collected detection value to the computer 15. The flow information of the flow meter 31 is transmitted to the computer 15. The test staff can observe the data of the entire equipment through the computer 15 and control the flow of the gas in the pipeline. The computer 15 sends the set flow information to the data collector 11, and the data collector 11 sends a control signal to the air pump 33. After the air pump 33 works, the gas in the gas tank 32 flows to the flow meter 31 along the air pipe, so that the gas flow to the flow meter 31 reaches the preset value. At the same time, the data collector 11 collects the speed information of the air pump 33 and sends it to the computer. The speed and working time of the air pump 33 will affect the gas flow to the flow meter.

[0034] In order to ensure that the gas flow generated by the air pump 33 is uniform and stable in the pipeline, a gas storage tank 32 is set in the test box 3. There are 3 temperature sensors and pressure sensors in the entire pipeline to achieve multi-point monitoring and reduce measurement errors.

[0035] The above embodiments are intended to illustrate the present invention, not to limit the present invention. Any solution that is a simple transformation of the present invention falls within the protection scope of the present invention.
