Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of heater testing technology, specifically relating to a heater comprehensive performance testing platform. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the automotive industry and continuous technological advancements, the stability and efficiency of automotive fuel heaters, as crucial auxiliary equipment for vehicles in cold regions, are receiving increasing attention. Fuel heaters preheat the vehicle's cooling system in cold environments, ensuring the engine can quickly reach normal operating temperature, thereby improving starting efficiency, reducing fuel consumption, and enhancing passenger comfort. However, with increasing market demand and technological innovation, the performance requirements for fuel heaters are becoming increasingly stringent, posing greater challenges to the accuracy, comprehensiveness, and automation of testing equipment.

[0003] Traditional testing methods for fuel-fired heaters mostly rely on testing a single parameter, such as measuring only the heater's heat output or fuel consumption. While simple and easy to implement, this method cannot comprehensively reflect the heater's overall performance. In practical applications, the performance of a fuel-fired heater depends not only on its heating efficiency and fuel economy but also on multiple parameters such as the water pump's flow rate, head, pump power consumption, and inlet and outlet water temperatures. Therefore, relying solely on the test results of a single parameter makes it difficult to accurately assess the heater's overall performance and provides insufficient data support for product quality control and performance optimization. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a comprehensive performance testing platform for heaters, thereby solving the problem that most existing testing devices are limited to testing a single parameter, lack systematic and comprehensive testing methods, and are difficult to comprehensively and accurately evaluate the overall performance of heaters.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a heater comprehensive performance testing platform, including a control cabinet, on which hardware equipment for a control system is installed, and an integrated water tank is also installed on the control cabinet. The integrated water tank is connected to a water circuit system, which includes an inlet pipe and a return pipe. One end of the inlet pipe and the return pipe is connected to the integrated water tank. An inlet valve and a outlet valve are installed on the inlet pipe. The control system is electrically connected to a data acquisition system, which includes an outlet water temperature sensor, a return water temperature sensor, a flow meter, and a pressure sensor.

[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This testing platform integrates multiple modules such as a control system, an integrated water tank, a water circuit system, and a data acquisition system. It can simulate the actual working environment of the heater on the vehicle. After connecting the heater's oil circuit, water circuit, and electrical circuit, it can measure and analyze key parameters such as the heater's heat output, thermal efficiency, fuel consumption, water pump flow rate, water pump head, pump group power consumption, inlet water temperature, and outlet water temperature in real time, thereby realizing comprehensive and multi-angle testing of the heater's performance.

[0007] In order to fully and automatically detect key parameters in the heating process and perform accurate calculations;

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the hardware of the control system consists of a pressure display, a power distribution box, a controller, a transmitter and a display. The outlet water temperature sensor and the return water temperature sensor are respectively installed on the inlet water pipe and the return water pipe, and the flow meter and the pressure sensor are both installed on the return water pipe.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this improvement are: the data acquisition system can monitor and provide feedback on the water pump flow rate, water pump head, inlet water temperature, and outlet water temperature in real time, and after processing and calculation by the control system, the information on the heater's heat output, thermal efficiency, and pump unit power consumption can be obtained.

[0010] In order to effectively adjust the heat transfer efficiency of the heater during the test;

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: a return water valve and a head regulating valve are installed on the return water pipe.

[0012] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that by changing the size of valve 46, the pump head can be changed, thereby changing the heat transfer efficiency of the water in the heater.

[0013] To ensure effective circulation of water in the integrated water tank;

[0014] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: one end of the water inlet pipe is connected to the bottom of the integrated water tank, and one end of the water return pipe is connected to the top side of the integrated water tank.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this improvement are: water can be introduced at a low level and discharged at a high level in the integrated water tank, thereby improving the system stability of the water system, reducing the water hammer effect, and facilitating the drainage and venting of the pipeline.

[0016] To facilitate the discharge of water from the integrated water tank;

[0017] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the water inlet pipe is a three-way pipe structure, and the water inlet valve and the water outlet valve are respectively installed at both ends of the water inlet pipe.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this improvement are: the three-way water inlet pipe, combined with the use of two valves, allows for convenient water circulation and quick and easy discharge of water from the integrated water tank.

[0019] In order to accurately detect the fuel consumption of the heater;

[0020] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the control system is electrically connected to an electronic scale, on which an oil tank for a heater is placed.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this improvement are: the electronic scale can monitor the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank, and the fuel consumption can be calculated and processed by the control system.

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The description in this part is only exemplary and explanatory, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention in any way.

[0029] Example 1:

[0030] like Figure 1As shown in Figure 4: A heater comprehensive performance testing platform includes a control cabinet 1, on which the hardware of a control system 2 is installed. An integrated water tank 3 is also installed on the control cabinet 1, and the integrated water tank 3 is connected to a water system 4. The water system 4 includes an inlet pipe 41 and a return pipe 42, one end of which is connected to the integrated water tank 3. An inlet valve 43 and a outlet valve 45 are installed on the inlet pipe 41. The control system 2 is electrically connected to a data acquisition system 5, which includes an outlet water temperature sensor 51, a return water temperature sensor 52, a flow meter 53, and a pressure sensor 54. This testing platform integrates… The control system 2, integrating multiple modules including the water tank 3, water circuit system 4, and data acquisition system 5, can simulate the actual working environment of the heater in a vehicle. After connecting to the heater's oil circuit, water circuit, and electrical circuit, it performs real-time measurement and analysis of key parameters such as the heater's heat output, thermal efficiency, fuel consumption, water pump flow rate, water pump head, pump power consumption, inlet water temperature, and outlet water temperature, achieving comprehensive and multi-dimensional testing of the heater's performance. The hardware of the control system 2 consists of a pressure display 21, a power distribution box 22, a controller 23, a transmitter 24, and a display 25. The outlet water temperature sensor 51 and the return water temperature sensor 52 are respectively installed... The flow meter 53 and pressure sensor 54 are both installed on the return water pipe 42, on the inlet pipe 41 and the return water pipe 42. The data acquisition system 5 can monitor and provide feedback on the water pump flow rate, water pump head, inlet water temperature, and outlet water temperature in real time. After processing and calculation by the control system 2, the heat output, thermal efficiency, and power consumption of the heater are obtained. The return water pipe 42 is equipped with a return water valve 44 and a head regulating valve 46. By changing the valve size of 46, the water pump head can be changed, thereby changing the heat transfer efficiency of the water in the heater. One end of the inlet pipe 41 is connected to the bottom of the integrated water tank 3, and one end of the return water pipe 42 is connected to the top side of the integrated water tank 3. The integrated water tank 3 can achieve low inlet and high outlet, thereby improving the system stability of the water system 4, reducing the water hammer effect, and facilitating the drainage and venting of the pipeline. The inlet pipe 41 is a three-way pipe structure. The inlet valve 43 and the outlet valve 45 are respectively installed at both ends of the inlet pipe 41. The three-way design of the inlet pipe 41, together with the use of the two valves, can facilitate water circulation and quickly and easily discharge the water in the integrated water tank 3. The control system 2 is electrically connected to an electronic scale. The heater's oil tank is placed on the electronic scale. The electronic scale can monitor the remaining fuel in the oil tank and calculate the fuel consumption through the control system 2.

[0031] The working principle of this technical solution is as follows: The water circuit, oil circuit, and electrical circuit of the fuel heater are connected to simulate its actual working state on a vehicle. The fuel tank is placed on an electronic scale to record fuel consumption. After the detection begins, the water in the integrated water tank 3 is pumped and heated by the heating pot of the fuel heater. It circulates in the inlet pipe 41, integrated water tank 3, and return pipe 42. During the water circulation process, the pump head is adjusted by the head regulating valve 46 to adjust the heat transfer efficiency of the fuel heater. The data acquisition system 5 uses the outlet water temperature sensor 51, return water temperature sensor 52, flow meter 53, and pressure sensor 54 to capture real-time data on the heater's operation, such as pump flow rate, water circuit pressure, and inlet and outlet water temperatures. This data, along with the electronic scale, monitors fuel consumption. These data are transmitted to the control system 2 via the transmitter 24. The system's built-in analysis software automatically processes the data, calculates key performance indicators such as the heater's calorific value, thermal efficiency, pump flow rate, pump head, and pump power consumption, and displays them in real-time on the display 25 for easy monitoring and recording by operators.
