Introduction

According to Gin's law of thermal effect, there is a definite mathematical relationship between heating power P, temperature difference △ T (TRH-TRMG) and mass flow rate Q. P/△ T=K1+K2 f (Q) K3 K1, K2, K3 are constants related to the physical properties of the gas. The unique temperature difference measurement method of the thermal gas mass flowmeter overcomes the disadvantage that the thermal gas mass flowmeter based on the principle of constant temperature difference can not be measured due to the large zero drift caused by water, oil, and impurities in the gas when measuring the gas flow. It can also be used to measure the mass flow of wet gas, such as underground gas drainage, air supply, and real-time detection of air volume (speed) in the exhaust system.

Working principle

The thermal flowmeter is a flow instrument designed based on the principle of thermal diffusion That is when the fluid flows through the heating object, the amount of heat loss of the heating object is proportional to the flow rate of the fluid The sensors of this series of flowmeters have two standard levels RTDs, one is used as a heat source and the other is used to measure the fluid temperature. When the fluid flows, the temperature difference between the two is linear with the flow, and then the relationship is converted into the linear output of the measured flow signal through the microelectronic control technology.

Classification

The thermal gas mass flowmeter can be divided into the plug-in type and pipe section type according to the installation mode.
Plugin
The plug-in sensor can be installed and maintained online. The installation process is to first weld the base with an external thread on the outer wall of the pipe, install a 1-inch stainless steel ball valve on the base, then use a special tool to drill a hole with a diameter of 22mm in the pipe, remove the special tool after drilling, and finally install the sensor on the valve and insert the sensor into the center of the pipe (the insertion position of the sensor has been determined when leaving the factory). Applicable pipe diameter of plug-in sensor: DN80 ～ 6000mm.
Pipe segment type
When the pipe segment thermal gas mass flowmeter leaves the factory, it has been equipped with a process pipe with the same inner diameter as the on-site pipe. The flange connection or threaded connection is adopted for connection with the on-site pipeline. The flange standard complies with the national standard GB/T9119-2000. Applicable pipe diameter of pipe segment sensor: DN15~2000mm.
The sensor is made of stainless steel, and the pipe is made of carbon steel or stainless steel.
