Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ultra-low temperature pressure sensor pressure calibration, in particular to an ultra-low temperature liquid intrusion pressure sensor calibration system and a pressure sensor. Background Art
[0002] As the primary instrument for measuring pressure, pressure sensors play a vital role in inspection or testing. When using a pressure-inducing tube to measure cryogenic liquid pressure, ambient temperature pressure sensors suffer from a significant drawback, such as response lag and an inability to obtain high-frequency pressure pulsation values.
[0003] With the development of aerospace, aviation, industrial transportation, and other fields, the use of cryogenic fuels such as liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen is becoming increasingly widespread. These low-temperature environments place higher demands on pressure measurement. Cryogenic pressure sensors play a vital role in these fields, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the systems. This is especially true in spacecraft cryogenic propulsion and refueling systems, where the harsh test conditions and operating environment determine the importance of high-precision measurement of cryogenic pressure parameters.
[0004] Ultra-low temperature liquid intrusive pressure sensors can directly contact and measure the working fluid being measured, and can obtain accurate cryogenic propellant pipeline pressure parameters in real time, achieving high-precision measurement of cryogenic propellant pressure. They have become a key measurement component for improving the performance of propellant filling measurement and control systems, and are highly favored by researchers in the field of aerospace liquid hydrogen / liquid oxygen engine measurement and control.
[0005] Under low temperature conditions, the thermal expansion and contraction of the pressure-sensitive element material of the pressure sensor, the influence of the internal structure and the manufacturing process will cause the sensor to have zero drift and sensitivity temperature drift. For the pressure sensor, if the calibration temperature and the operating temperature are different, a certain additional error will be generated, affecting its working performance.
[0006] At present, there are roughly two types of calibration devices for low-temperature pressure sensors at home and abroad. One is a calibration device under room temperature conditions. However, since the measurement error of low-temperature pressure sensors can reach 10% due to the influence of temperature performance, it cannot more accurately display the actual effect of low-temperature pressure measurement. It is often used to calibrate industrial low-temperature pressure sensors with low error requirements.
[0007] The other is a device that performs calibration at low temperatures. However, the working principle of this calibration device is to cool the introduced gas through heat conduction to achieve a low-temperature environment, and to change the pressure of the introduced gas for pressure calibration. However, this calibration method cannot accurately simulate the actual test environment of the cryogenic liquid intrusive cryogenic sensor. In addition, the introduced gas almost always uses helium with a low boiling point, which is different from the actual measured liquid working fluid.
[0008] Currently, the development of ultra-low temperature liquid intrusive pressure sensors is still in its infancy. There are no public reports or detailed descriptions of the relevant ultra-low temperature liquid intrusive calibration platform. It basically focuses on using gas pressure to perform sensor calibration tests at low temperatures, rather than directly performing liquid intrusive testing and calibration. This has limitations, does not conform to the ultra-low temperature liquid intrusive working fluid measurement status, and cannot meet mission requirements.
[0009] When performing calibration measurements on the calibration device of the ultra-low temperature liquid intrusion pressure sensor, it is necessary to ensure that the sensitive diaphragm of the sensor is in full contact with the cryogenic liquid, fully consider the accuracy of pressurization, overcome factors such as the influence of the liquid temperature gradient on the measurement, and at the same time avoid the influence of the relative pressure output of the gas-liquid mixture as much as possible. Only in this way can the ultra-low temperature liquid intrusion pressure sensor be calibrated more accurately.
[0010] In the prior art, the utility model patent with the patent publication number CN115389099A discloses a pressure sensor calibration device, in which the insulation cylinder is formed with a first interlayer cavity, and the first interlayer cavity is filled with a liquid low-temperature medium. When the liquid low-temperature medium reaches the set liquid level, a low-temperature environment can be created in the cylinder cavity of the insulation cylinder, and the test core is surrounded by the low-temperature environment. The ambient temperature created by the insulation cylinder is more stable, and the pressure sensor can be calibrated in a low-temperature environment. However, this method forms the low-temperature temperature of the test by heat conduction, and there is no direct contact with the low-temperature liquid working medium of the test. The calibration test is performed using gas pressure, which does not meet the requirements of liquid invasive testing.
[0011] Patent publication number CN107941261A discloses a low-temperature test bench for sensor equipment, comprising a thermostat, an integrated tooling platform, and a preloading device. The thermostat is equipped with a liquid helium pool, and the integrated tooling platform is located within the liquid helium pool. The preloading device includes a vacuum tube, a transmission unit, and a force loading control unit. The transmission unit is located within the vacuum tube and is connected to the transmission unit. The force loading control unit is sealed to the vacuum tube, and the vacuum tube is sealed to the top opening of the thermostat via a flange. The outermost layer of the integrated tooling platform is a vacuum box, which is sealed to the vacuum tube of the preloading device. The vacuum box contains a test fixture for mounting the sensor equipment to be tested. The transmission unit in the vacuum tube is connected to the test fixture, which facilitates the measurement of the performance of low-temperature sensors under continuously changing temperatures. However, in this patent, the low-temperature pressure sensor is placed in a vacuum environment and tested as a mechanical pressure sensor, which is essentially different from a liquid-intrusive pressure sensor.

[0032] The utility model also provides a cryogenic liquid intrusion pressure sensor, which is calibrated using the above-mentioned cryogenic liquid intrusion pressure sensor calibration system.
[0033] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0034] The utility model adopts a two-layer ultra-low temperature liquid cavity to form an annular nested structure. The outer annular cavity forms a temperature control cavity, and the inner cavity is a pressure control cavity required for different pressure calibrations. Its beneficial effect is that the temperature control and the pressure control are independently controlled, avoiding the adverse effect of the temperature change with the pressure change of the ultra-low temperature invasive pressure sensor under different ultra-low temperature liquid pressure controls.
[0035] The utility model adopts vacuum insulation to insulate and isolate two layers of ultra-low temperature liquid cavities into a vacuum cavity, which has the beneficial effect of reducing heat leakage during the temperature control and pressure control process of the ultra-low temperature liquid, making it easier to test the stability of temperature and pressure.
[0036] The utility model adopts vacuum insulation to insulate the test chamber of the ultra-low temperature liquid intrusion pressure sensor, and at the same time sets a radiation cold screen to further reduce radiation heat leakage. The beneficial effect is to reduce the heat leakage of the ultra-low temperature liquid intrusion pressure sensor during ultra-low temperature liquid intrusion calibration, which is convenient for increasing the number of pressure sensor calibrations and calibration time.
[0037] The utility model adopts a test cavity bellows tube to connect the test cavity top flange and the ultra-low temperature test bench. The beneficial effect is that it can not only increase the conduction distance from the ultra-low temperature test bench to the normal temperature test cavity top flange, and reduce heat leakage from the test bench, but also can utilize the expansion and contraction of the bellows to achieve low-temperature sealing and normal-temperature sealing at the upper and lower flanges of the test cavity.
[0038] The pressure control chamber of the utility model is designed to be divided into two parts, an upper part and an lower part, which are connected by a longer neck tube. The beneficial effect is that it can form a phase separation function, avoiding the influence of gas-liquid mixing on the calibration pressure when calibrating the ultra-low temperature liquid intrusive pressure sensor at the bottom of the pressure control chamber, and at the same time greatly reducing the heat load when maintaining the temperature of the lower temperature control chamber at a fixed point.
[0039] The utility model utilizes a separately designed temperature-control chamber to provide liquid immersion cooling and temperature control only for the lower chamber. This advantageously maintains a desired temperature point for the ultra-low temperature test bench at the bottom of the lower chamber, enabling calibration testing of the pressure sensor at a fixed temperature. High-precision temperature control eliminates conventional heat conduction-based cooling and heating temperature control. By leveraging the one-to-one correspondence between the saturation temperature and saturation pressure of ultra-low temperature liquids, the temperature-control chamber controls the liquid pressure within the chamber to achieve more precise temperature regulation.
[0040] The pressure control method design of the pressure-controlling chamber of the utility model adopts a larger pressure-stabilizing chamber, and sets a standard pressure sensor and a pressure-stabilizing chamber safety valve on it. The beneficial effect is that in the process of controlling the pressure of the pressure-stabilizing chamber, the safe use and discharge of the pressure in the pressure-stabilizing chamber are ensured, and the outlet pressure of the pressure reducing valve is determined and checked to meet the calibration requirements.
[0041] The pressure control method of the pressure control chamber of the utility model also adopts a flow controller and a gas proportional valve. The beneficial effect is that the opening adjustment of the flow controller and the gas proportional valve is finely controlled to release the vaporized gas of the ultra-low temperature fluid caused by the additional heat load brought about by the gas pressurization process, thereby achieving high-precision pressurization at different pressures at low temperatures.
[0042] The utility model can not only avoid the influence of gas-liquid mixing on the output pressure, but also realize different pressure calibration tests maintained at a fixed temperature to meet the research and calibration needs of ultra-low temperature liquid intrusive pressure sensors.

Furthermore, a temperature-controlled chamber liquid inlet valve 22 is provided on the temperature-controlled chamber liquid inlet pipeline, and a temperature-controlled chamber exhaust valve 23 is provided on the temperature-controlled chamber exhaust pipeline. The temperature-controlled chamber liquid inlet valve 22 and the temperature-controlled chamber exhaust valve 23 achieve balanced inflow and outflow of ultra-cold liquid, thereby achieving pressure stability in the temperature-controlled chamber 21 and thereby achieving temperature stability within the temperature-controlled chamber 21, thereby achieving the temperature control purpose of the temperature-controlled chamber 21.
[0049] In this embodiment, the temperature control chamber 21 is in the shape of an inverted concave character, and a mounting opening is provided in the central concave portion.
[0050] In this embodiment, the pressure control chamber assembly 30 includes a pressure control chamber 31, a pressure control chamber liquid inlet pipeline, and a pressure control chamber exhaust pipeline. The pressure control chamber 31 includes an upper cavity 311, a long neck tube 312, and a lower cavity 313.

The temperature control chamber 21 and the pressure control chamber 31 are located in the vacuum insulation chamber 10, and the temperature control chamber 21 wraps the lower cavity 313, and the test chamber assembly 60 is connected to the lower cavity 313. The pressure control chamber liquid inlet pipeline and the pressure control chamber exhaust pipeline pass through the vacuum chamber flange cover 12 and are connected to the upper cavity 311. The lower cavity 313 partially protrudes from the installation port of the temperature control chamber 21 to form a test platform installation port.
[0051] In this embodiment, a pressure control chamber pressure sensor 321 and a pressure control chamber liquid inlet valve 322 are further provided on the pressure control chamber liquid inlet pipeline, and a gas proportional valve 331, a flow controller 332 and a pressure control chamber safety valve 333 are sequentially provided on the pressure control chamber exhaust pipeline.
[0052] In this embodiment, the pressure control chamber 31 is designed to be connected by a longer neck tube in the middle of the upper and lower chambers, and the lower chamber 313 is connected to the ultra-low temperature test bench 62 through a low-temperature seal. This connection can achieve low-temperature and high-pressure sealing of ultra-low temperature liquid.
[0053] In this embodiment, the pressure-control gas assembly 40 includes a pressure-control gas inlet pipe 41, a pressure-stabilizing chamber 42, a high-pressure helium cylinder 43, a pressure-reducing valve 44, a pressure-stabilizing chamber safety valve 45, and a pressure-stabilizing chamber pressure sensor 46. The two ends of the pressure-control gas inlet pipe 41 connect the pressure-stabilizing chamber 42 and the upper chamber 311, respectively. The outlet of the high-pressure helium cylinder 43 connects to the pressure-stabilizing chamber 42. The pressure-reducing valve 44 is located in the pipeline connecting the high-pressure helium cylinder 43 and the pressure-stabilizing chamber 42. The pressure-reducing valve 44 and the pressure-stabilizing chamber safety valve 45 are connected to the pressure-stabilizing chamber 42.
[0054] In this embodiment, the outlet of the high-pressure helium cylinder 43 is connected to the pressure reducing valve 44 and then to the pressure stabilizing chamber 42 via a gas pipeline. The outlet of the pressure stabilizing chamber 42 is connected to the pressure-controlled air inlet pipeline 41, which is connected to the upper chamber 311 via the vacuum chamber flange cover 12, thus forming a pressure air inlet pipeline. The gas proportional valve 331 and the flow controller 332 are also connected to the upper chamber 311 via the vacuum chamber flange cover 12. In this way, a pressure exhaust pipeline can be formed by setting the flow controller 332 of the pressure air inlet pipeline and adjusting the opening of the gas proportional valve 331. Through the comprehensive adjustment of the air intake of the pressure-controlled air inlet pipeline and the exhaust of the pressure exhaust pipeline, the pressure in the pressure-controlled chamber 31 is stabilized. The pressure-controlled chamber liquid inlet valve 322 is used to replenish the ultra-cold liquid in the pressure-controlled chamber 31, and the pressure-controlled chamber safety valve 333 is used to ensure the strength and safety of the pressure-controlled chamber 31.
[0055] In this embodiment, the standard differential pressure gauge 50 is connected to the upper cavity 311. The standard differential pressure gauge 50 and the pressure control cavity pressure sensor 321 respectively test the gas pressure and liquid pressure of the gas space in the upper cavity 311, and the sum of the two is used as the calibration comparison pressure.
[0056] In this embodiment, the test chamber assembly 60 includes a test chamber bellows 61, a cryogenic test platform 62, a test chamber top flange 63, a test chamber radiation shield hanging rod 64, a test chamber radiation shield 65, and a test chamber evacuation valve 66. A test installation port is provided at the bottom of the vacuum chamber outer tube 11, and the cryogenic test platform 62 is secured to the test platform installation port via a detachable sealing flange at the test installation port.
[0057] In this embodiment, the test cavity bellows tube 61 is connected to the inner recess of the temperature control cavity 21 through a test installation port, and the test cavity top flange 63 is detachably connected to the other end of the test cavity bellows tube 61. The inner recess of the temperature control cavity 21, the test cavity bellows tube 61, the ultra-low temperature test bench 62 and the test cavity top flange 63 enclose and form a test cavity 67. The pressure sensor to be calibrated is installed on the ultra-low temperature test bench 62. The test end of the pressure sensor A to be calibrated, that is, the test port, is located in the lower cavity 313. The non-test end, that is, the data line connection end of the pressure sensor A, is located in the test cavity 67. The lower cavity 313 is filled with ultra-low temperature liquid. The test end of the pressure sensor to be calibrated is in direct contact with the ultra-low temperature liquid, forming an ultra-low temperature liquid intrusion pressure test. In addition, during calibration, multiple ultra-low temperature liquid intrusion pressure sensors can be calibrated simultaneously.
[0058] In this embodiment, a test chamber radiation shield hanging rod 64 is fixedly connected to the test chamber top flange 63. Multiple test chamber radiation shields 65 are fixed to the test chamber top flange 63. The test chamber top flange 63 and the test chamber radiation shields 65 are located within a test chamber 67. Furthermore, a pipeline containing a test chamber evacuation valve 66 passes through the test chamber top flange 63 and communicates with the test chamber 67.
[0059] In this embodiment, test chamber 67 is evacuated via test chamber evacuation valve 66, achieving a vacuum insulation effect after the pressure sensor to be calibrated is installed within test chamber 67. Multiple test chamber radiation shields 65 are secured to test chamber top flange 63 via test chamber radiation shield hanging rods 64. This reduces radiation heat leakage from the pressure sensor to be calibrated within test chamber 67. The test chamber radiation shield hanging rods 64 are typically made of a non-metallic material with low thermal conductivity. The test chamber radiation shields 65 are constructed of 0.5 mm thick stainless steel sheets with a mirror finish to reduce radiation heat leakage from the ultra-low temperature test bench 62.
[0060] In this embodiment, the lower cavity 313 is immersed in the low-temperature fluid in the temperature-controlled cavity 21, so that the temperature of the lower cavity 313 including the ultra-low temperature test bench 62 is completely consistent with the temperature of the temperature-controlled cavity 21, thereby ensuring the constancy of the test temperature of the invasive pressure sensor and not being affected by changes in its test pressure.
[0061] See also Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, during use, the test chamber top flange 63 is opened, the ultra-low temperature test bench 62 is exposed to the atmosphere, and the pressure sensor to be calibrated is mounted on the ultra-low temperature test bench 62. After the pressure sensor to be calibrated is installed, the test chamber top flange 63, on which the test chamber radiation shield 65 is mounted, is sealed and mounted, and the test chamber 67 is evacuated via the test chamber evacuation valve 66. After the test chamber 67 is evacuated, the vacuum insulation chamber 10 is evacuated via the vacuum chamber evacuation valve 13. After the vacuum insulation chamber 10 is evacuated, ultra-cold liquid is added to the temperature control chamber 21 via the temperature control chamber liquid inlet valve 22. The temperature control chamber exhaust valve 23 is opened to ensure that the pressure in the temperature control chamber 21 reaches the saturation pressure at the desired test temperature, thereby achieving the desired test temperature within the temperature control chamber 21. Simultaneously, after the vacuum insulation chamber 10 is evacuated, ultra-cold liquid is injected into the pressure control chamber 31, and the temperature control chamber 21 is evacuated. When the ultra-cold liquid level reaches the bottom of the upper chamber 311, the injection of ultra-cold liquid is stopped. Specifically, after the vacuum insulation chamber 10 is evacuated, the flow controller 332 and the gas proportional valve 331 are adjusted to the fully open position, the pressure control chamber liquid inlet valve 322 is opened, and the ultra-cold liquid is added to the pressure control chamber 31. After the pressure control chamber 31 is filled with ultra-cold liquid, the pressure control chamber liquid inlet valve 322 is closed, and then the high-pressure helium cylinder 43 is opened. The pressure reducing valve 44 is adjusted to reduce the pressure to the required test pressure. Through the intake of gas through the pressure control inlet pipe 41 and the valve opening of the flow controller 332 and the gas proportional valve 331, an inlet and outlet gas balance is established, thereby achieving the target pressure control in the pressure control chamber 31 and meeting the test conditions of the ultra-cold liquid invasive pressure sensor.
