Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of air pressure testing devices, specifically to a device for testing the saturated vapor pressure of a substance. Background Technology
[0002] Saturated vapor pressure is the pressure at which a liquid or solid reaches a state of phase equilibrium with its vapor, and it is one of the fundamental properties of matter. According to the Claber-Paassens-Klauber-Krauthammer equation, in a vacuum-sealed container with a constant temperature, the rates at which vapor molecules condense towards the liquid surface and the rates at which liquid molecules escape from the surface are equal, meaning a dynamic equilibrium is established between the liquid and the vapor. The vapor pressure at this point is the saturated vapor pressure of the substance at that temperature.
[0003] The methods for determining saturated vapor pressure vary depending on the substance and conditions. Commonly used methods include static methods, dynamic methods, saturated gas flow methods, Knudsen gap permeation methods, Reid methods, three-stage expansion methods, and gas chromatography.
[0004] The static method is a commonly used approach that involves placing the analyte in a closed system and directly measuring its saturated vapor pressure at different temperatures. It is the most basic method for measuring vapor pressure, directly measuring the vapor pressure in equilibrium with a liquid or solid phase. However, factors such as air inclusions in the system, temperature fluctuations, or system leaks can lead to pressure instability, preventing the vapor pressure from reaching saturation, resulting in inaccurate pressure gauge readings and making accurate measurements impossible. Therefore, the accuracy of the vapor pressure value cannot be guaranteed.
[0005] Therefore, saturated vapor pressure testing experiments must be conducted in a vacuum-sealed system to ensure constant pressure and temperature. Before the experiment, the experimental system needs to be pressure tested to ensure its airtightness. The system needs to be vacuumed to avoid interference from air on the system temperature. Furthermore, the system temperature should be strictly controlled during the experiment. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the problem that current devices for testing saturated vapor pressure cannot control the temperature of the system while ensuring airtightness;

A first heating plate is provided on the inner surface of the main body of the device, a second heating plate is provided inside the top cover, and heating wires are wound around the outside of the test container.
[0009] The top cover is equipped with a four-way pipe, with end a connected to the test container, end b connected to the pressure sensor, end c connected to the vacuum pump, and end d connected to the temperature sensor.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the test container includes a connecting pipe and a test pool that are fixedly connected at the top and bottom.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, a valve is installed at the c-end of the four-way pipe to control the vacuum pump.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the b-end of the four-way pipe is provided with a piston fitting to buffer the internal pressure.
