[0020] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, a graphite pipe permeability detection device for detecting the permeability of the graphite pipe 4, characterized in that the detection device includes a fixing part 1, a testing part 2 and a workbench 3. The fixing part 1 is installed on the workbench 3, and the fixing part 1 is used to fix the graphite pipe 4;

[0021] The fixing part 1 includes a bracket 11, a cylinder 12, an upper pressing plate 13 and a lower backing plate 14. The bracket 11 is installed on the workbench 3, the cylinder 12 is vertically installed on the bracket 11, the output end of the cylinder 12 is connected with the upper pressing plate 13, the lower backing plate 14 is installed on the workbench 3 and is arranged below the upper pressing plate 13.

Fluororubber gaskets are arranged on the contact surfaces of the upper pressing plate 13 and the lower backing plate 14 with the graphite pipe 4, and silicone grease is smeared on the surface of the fluororubber gaskets for auxiliary sealing.

[0022] The testing part 2 includes a main vacuum pipe 201. One end of the main vacuum pipe 201 passes through the workbench 3 and the lower backing plate 14 and extends into the graphite pipe 4. The other end of the main vacuum pipe 201 is connected with a vacuum valve 202. The vacuum valve 202 is connected with a vacuum pump 203 through a pipeline. A detection sub - pipe 204 and an air - breaking sub - pipe 206 are connected to the main vacuum pipe 201. The end of the detection sub - pipe 204 is connected with a vacuum gauge tube 205. An air - supplementing sub - pipe 208 is connected to the air - breaking sub - pipe 206. An air - breaking valve 207 is arranged at the end of the air - breaking sub - pipe 206. A micro - pore air - bleeding valve 209 is arranged on the air - supplementing sub - pipe 208. The end of the air - supplementing sub - pipe 208 is connected with an air - supplementing valve 210.

[0023] The vacuum valve 202, the air - breaking valve 207 and the air - supplementing valve 210 all adopt high - vacuum baffle valves.

[0024] The detection device is also provided with a detection control system. The cylinder 12, vacuum valve 202, air breaking valve 207, air supplementing valve 210, micro-hole air release valve 209, vacuum gauge 205 and vacuum pump 203 are all electrically connected to the detection control system.

[0025] The usage process of the present utility model:

[0026] The detection control system includes a manual mode and an automatic mode. Before detection, the basic parameters of the graphite pipe 4 to be detected are input into the detection control system, including the sample number, name, types of impregnants used in sample production and impregnation times, and the basic parameters of the test are set, including the inner diameter, outer diameter, length, volume, pipeline volume, ambient humidity, air pressure, vacuum degree, vacuum pumping time, static waiting time, waiting not yet time, test recording time, etc.;

[0027] During the device sealing test process, the stainless-steel pipe is placed between the upper pressing plate 13 and the lower backing plate 14. Fluororubber gaskets are provided on the upper pressing plate 13 and the lower backing plate 14, and silicone grease is applied on the fluororubber gaskets to increase the sealing performance. The cylinder 12 is used to push the upper pressing plate 13 downward to ensure no air leakage. The vacuum valve 202 is opened, and the vacuum pump 203 is started. After vacuum pumping, the vacuum valve 202 and the vacuum pump 203 are closed. After standing for a period of time, it is judged whether the device sealing degree meets the test requirements according to the rebound value of the pressure during the standing time. If the pressure change value is greater than 10 Pa, it indicates that there is a sealing problem with the device. If the pressure change value is less than 10 Pa, it indicates that the device meets the test requirements and subsequent operations can be carried out;

[0028] During the test process, the stainless-steel pipe is replaced with the graphite pipe 4 and placed between the upper pressing plate 13 and the lower backing plate 14. Fluororubber gaskets are provided on the upper pressing plate 13 and the lower backing plate 14, and silicone grease is applied on the fluororubber gaskets to increase the sealing performance. The cylinder 12 is used to push the upper pressing plate 13 downward to ensure no air leakage. The vacuum valve 202 is opened, and the vacuum pump 203 is started. After vacuum pumping, the vacuum valve 202 and the vacuum pump 203 are closed. After standing for a period of time, if the pressure does not reach 90 Pa after standing, the air supplementing valve 210 is opened, and the micro-hole air release valve 209 is used to slowly supplement air into the device to make the pressure reach about 90 Pa. The micro-hole air release valve 209 is closed, and the pressure in the graphite tube gradually rises to 100 Pa. The test time is started to be recorded, and the detection control system automatically generates a correlation curve of pressure and time until the set detection duration or the set detection pressure is reached. The permeability coefficient can be calculated according to the correlation curve of pressure and time;

[0029] The calculation formula of the permeability coefficient is:

[0030]

[0031] Where: k - permeability coefficient, mm 2 / s,

[0032] L, d i , d o - Sample length, inner diameter, outer diameter, mm,

[0033] △t - Test duration, s,

[0034] V - Inner volume of the detection device, including the inner volume of the sample and the inner volume of the pipeline, mm 3 ,

[0035] △P i - During the test period, the change value of the pressure inside the sample, Pa, △P i =P i2 - P i1 , P i1 - Pressure value at the starting time point, P i2 - Pressure value at the ending time point;

[0036] - Average pressure difference, Pa, P a - Local atmospheric pressure, - Average pressure inside the sample,

[0037] After the test is completed, open the air release valve 207, the pressure inside the device rises, and lift the upper pressing plate 13 to remove the graphite pipe 4.

[0038] For each of the preferred and optional technical means disclosed in the present utility model, except as specifically stated or when one preferred or preferably applicable technical means is a further limitation of another technical means, they can be arbitrarily combined to form several different technical solutions. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims still fall within the scope covered by the present utility model.
