[0039] Working principle;

[0040] Firstly, the water temperature and the initial pumping speed of the peristaltic pump 203 and the conveying pump 403 are set through the touch screen 300;

[0041] At the same time, the circulating conveying assembly starts to work, the DSP controller 303 controls the electric heating rod 402 to work, the water in the water tank 406 is quickly heated, when the water temperature reaches the predetermined initial temperature, the conveying pump 403 installed on the other side of the water tank 406 draws out the hot water, which is conveyed to the bottom center of the tank body 100 through the conveying pipe 404, the aeration disc 405 at the end of the conveying pipe 404 uniformly disperses the hot water into the tank body 100, so that the hot water forms a strong convection circulation in the tank body 100 from bottom to top, the heat of the hot water is fully utilized to heat the liquid material and the environment in the tank body 100, and the temperature controller 302 collects the data of the first temperature sensor 304 and the second sensor and transmits it to the DSP controller 303, so as to heat the water in the tank body 100 at constant temperature;

[0043] The flowmeter 301 at the large end of the reducer pipe 201 connected to the other end of the hollow pipe 202 and penetrating upward through the tank 100 monitors the flow rate of the material in real time and feeds back the flow rate signal to the DSP controller 303, and the DSP controller 303 compares and analyzes the measured flow rate with the preset flow rate, and if the flow rate deviation is found, the speed of the peristaltic pump 203 is immediately adjusted to ensure that the liquid material flows stably in the hollow pipe 202 at the accurately set flow rate, and the liquid level meter 500 can accurately measure the liquid level height of the liquid material in the hollow pipe 202 and timely transmit the liquid level signal to the DSP controller 303, and the DSP controller 303 judges whether the material supply condition and the gasification process are normal according to the liquid level information, and once the liquid level abnormality is detected, the running state of the peristaltic pump 203 is immediately adjusted, such as increasing or reducing the material conveying speed.
