Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steam oven technology, specifically a steam oven water vapor separator testing device. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, given the global shortage of energy resources, in order to better promote the rational and full utilization of energy in my country, the government has introduced relevant policies and energy efficiency standards, increased supervision and inspection of energy conservation efforts, and encouraged enterprises to adopt new energy sources and energy-saving technologies and equipment.

[0003] Steam generators and steam-generating steam ovens are widely used in daily life. The thermal efficiency test refers to the test of the ratio of the effective output energy of a steam generator to the input energy to verify its combustion conditions and thermal efficiency. The energy efficiency level is determined by the thermal efficiency data obtained from the test.

[0004] Currently, the method for testing thermal efficiency typically calculates the evaporation rate by measuring the amount of water added to the steam generator per unit time after the steam generator has started producing steam normally. However, during the thermal efficiency test, the moisture entrained in the steam introduces errors into the calculation, affecting the accuracy of the results and leading to an inaccurate final energy efficiency rating. Therefore, it is necessary to separate the moisture entrained in the steam during the thermal efficiency test of the steam generator.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a test device for a steam separator in a steam oven. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a steam separator testing device for steam ovens, which solves the problem that existing devices cannot eliminate the moisture entrained in the steam, causing errors in test calculations, affecting the accuracy of thermal efficiency calculation results, and leading to inaccurate judgment of the final energy efficiency level.

The gas system includes a gas valve, a gas pressure regulator, a gas flow meter, a gas thermometer, and a gas pressure gauge. The water inlet system includes an inlet thermometer, a water valve, a booster pump, a water container, and an electronic scale. The water vapor separation system includes a water vapor separator, a drain valve, and a steam outlet thermometer.

[0008] Preferably, one end of the gas valve is a gas inlet, and the other end is connected to a gas pressure regulator. One end of the gas pressure regulator is connected to the gas valve, and the other end is connected to a gas flow meter. The gas valve is used to control the flow of gas, and the gas pressure regulator adjusts the higher gas inlet pressure to a set lower gas outlet pressure. As the gas consumption changes and the inlet pressure fluctuates, it automatically maintains the outlet pressure value within a certain range for use by the tested equipment such as the steam oven.

[0009] Preferably, the gas flow meter is connected in series in the gas inlet connecting the gas pressure regulator and the steam oven. A gas thermometer is installed before the gas inlet of the steam oven, and the gas pressure gauge is installed in the pipeline between the gas flow meter and the gas inlet of the steam oven. The gas flow meter is used to measure the gas flow rate entering the steam oven through the gas pressure regulator, the gas thermometer is used to measure the gas temperature, and the gas pressure gauge is used to measure the gas pressure passing through the gas flow meter to the steam oven.

[0010] Preferably, the steam oven is the device being tested. The gas inlet of the steam oven is connected to the gas flow meter of the gas system, the water inlet of the steam oven is connected to the water valve of the water inlet system, and the steam outlet of the steam oven is connected to the inlet of the water-vapor separation system. A steam outlet thermometer is installed on the steam outlet of the steam oven. The steam oven is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0011] Preferably, one end of the water valve is connected to the water inlet of the steamer, and the other end is connected to the booster pump. One end of the booster pump is connected to the water container, and the other end is connected to the water valve. The water container is used to hold water. The water container is placed on an electronic scale. The booster pump continuously draws water from the water container at a pressure of 0.4 MPa to replenish the water inlet of the steamer. The electronic scale is used to measure the water consumption and the weight of the condensate.

[0012] Preferably, the water-vapor separator has a steam inlet, a steam outlet, and a condensate outlet. The steam inlet is connected to the steam outlet of the steam chamber. The condensate after water-vapor separation is discharged through the condensate outlet, which is equipped with a drain valve.

[0013] This invention provides a testing device for a steam separator in a steam oven. It has the following advantages:

[0014] This steam oven water vapor separator testing device, through the setup of a gas system, a water inlet system, a steam oven under test, and a water vapor separation system, drains the condensate by opening the valve at the condensate outlet, weighs the water released from the condensate outlet with an electronic scale, and records its weight. This facilitates the separation of moisture from the steam, solving the problem that existing devices cannot eliminate moisture entrained in the steam, which causes errors in test calculations, affects the accuracy of thermal efficiency calculation results, and leads to inaccurate judgment of the final energy efficiency level.
