By narration to a following specific embodiment, can have a better understanding to the present invention, present embodiment is a unrestricted example.
Fig. 1 detects possible sewing for a kind of being used for of the present invention to the heat interchanger that constitutes steam superheater, and determines total figure of the equipment of possible leak volume;
Fig. 2 is the total figure that a certain amount of helium is injected the device of heat interchanger high pressure and low tension loop.
The embodiments of the invention that will narrate are mainly used in the leak detection of the heat interchanger 10 of type shown in Figure 1, and this heat interchanger comprises the housing 12 that is filled with low-pressure fluid (treating superheated vapor).High-pressure fluid circuit (the overheated steam of using) comprises the U-shaped tube bank 14 that contacts with low-pressure fluid.The low-pressure fluid that is made of saturated vapour 16 enters housing and flows out by one or more outlets by entering the mouth.Shown in the figure two outlets 18.
Overheatedly comprise entry conductor 19, distributor box 20, tube bank 14 and EXPORT CARTON 22 with steam-return line.
The pressure of pipe in 14 for example is 55 crust, and is more much bigger than the pressure in the housing 12, therefore may take place from overheated with steam to treating sewing of superheated vapor.
Leak test plant of the present invention can be for comprising the device of a certain amount of helium of temporary transient storage, the device of the overheated inlet of the rapid steam in jection of helium that this is a certain amount of, the sampling of steam to be analyzed and treating apparatus and mensuration diagnostic aid.These devices will be narrated one by one.
Temporary transient storage can have structure shown in Figure 1 with injection device 24, and these devices can make the helium of a certain amount of known volume and pressure, with the inert gas that is generally nitrogen, injects conduit 19.
Injection must be carried out rapidly.In practice, helium " plug " and its a certain amount of inertia vector gas of promotion must enter entry conductor 19 in less than 10 seconds time, and this time is generally 3 to 10 seconds.The volume injected of helium depends on desired detection limit.In practice, usually the injection rate IR of helium is equivalent under normal temperature and pressure conditions 10 liters volume.
Above-mentioned storage and injection device also can be used to provide correction.But this way has shortcoming.In fact, preferably provide correction (for example be not 10 standard liters, but 0.5 standard liter) by injecting less than the helium of measuring consumption.In addition, be injected under the lower pressure and carry out.Illustrated in figures 1 and 2 is a kind of way preferably, and it provides independent means for correcting 34, forms with the similar structure of injection device by one, is connected with low-pressure fluid loop (treating superheated vapor).Under situation shown in Figure 1, a plurality of superheated vapor outlets are arranged, means for correcting 34 is connected with each outlet 18 by pipe 36, manages 36 orthicons 26 equally, and stop valve 38 and 40 are housed, and check (non-return) valve 42.
When equipment was necessary for movable type, the pipe 26 that is provided and 36 was not directly to be connected with heat interchanger, but is connected with heat interchanger by the flexible pipe that can bear desired injection pressure.
Temporary transient storage shown in Figure 2 and injection device 24 comprise a correction volume, for example are made of a simple bend pipe 44, and the quick-action valve of pneumatic or motorized adjustment is equipped with at the two ends of bend pipe.Volume 44 among Fig. 2 is equipped with drop valve 28, advances helium with upper reaches valve 50 with advance nitrogen with upper reaches valve 52.Check (non-return) valve 54 can prevent to reflux to injection device.Source of the gas can be made of nitrogen and helium steel cylinder 56,58, and reduction valve is housed respectively on the bottle, and pressure is reduced to certain numerical value, for example when the pressure of superheated vapor is 55 crust, pressure is reduced to 65 crust.In general, the pressure of reduction valve output must equal the pressure loss that overheated force value with steam adds generation when injecting.Correction volume 44 is equipped with tensimeter 60, and the signal of representing its internal pressure is provided.
The pressure of nitrogen source of the gas preferably is chosen in slightly higher than the pressure of helium source of the gas, in order to avoid gas produces uncontrolled mixing.At last, volume 44 is equipped with bleed valve 62.
Means for correcting 34 shown in Figure 2 comprises and storage and the corresponding parts of injection device.Therefore, these parts add that with identical cross reference number symbol a represents.The order of magnitude of volume 44a is generally 1/10th of volume 44, for example is not 1 liter, but 100(centimetre)
3The pipe that the impulse type injection can be provided all is housed in all instances, and this requires the flow velocity of about 30 standards liter/second usually. Device 24 and 34 can shared helium and the source of the gas of nitrogen, is equipped with this moment to be used for the stop valve 61 of spacer assembly 24 and 34.
Sampler (Fig. 1) comprises the sample tap 64 that is positioned in each outlet 18, and stop valve 66 is housed.Sample tap 64 must have enough distances apart from the decanting point of housing 10 and means for correcting, so that obtain homogeneity.In practice, it is just enough to be at least the distance of ten times of calibers.Sample tap is connected with treating apparatus by flow rate corresponding variable valve 68, is being used under the situation of steam superheater, and treating apparatus comprises refrigeratory 70 and gas separator 72.The flow velocity that sample tap 64 provides is wanted to guarantee desired sensitivity.In practice, 0.5 to 1 kilogram/minute flow velocity is normally gratifying.This is equivalent to about 0.5 liter/second steam.
Be used under the situation of superheater, the product that flows out refrigeratory 70 comprises water and uncondensable gas.These products all add gas separator 72.Uncondensable gas is extracted out from condenser, is sent to detecting device 74.More particularly, this detecting device can be a mass spectrometer, is connected with " respirator " 78 devices separated from the gas by conduit 76." respirator " 78 is made of very hard hard material core, for example is installed with the synthetic ruby of aperture.The diameter of aperture is very little, for example is approximately 50 microns.Filtrator preferably is equipped with at the upper reaches of fuse, in case aperture is stopped up by dust.Mass spectrometer is set up on the spectral line of the tracer gas that is generally helium.
Sequence of operation is preferably by programmable aut.eq. 80 controls that comprise a microprocessor, and it is determined the concentration of helium and therefrom derive leak volume according to the signal from detecting device and tensimeter reception.Aut.eq. 80 can link to each other with register 82.
The sensitivity that detects can be injected the recently definite of 18 amount of helium by calculating the reception amount of helium determined by integration and timing.Leak the merchant then by calculating recently determining of amount of helium of determining by integration and the amount of helium of injecting high tension loop.Leaking the ratio of discussing with detection sensitivity provides by sewing escaping gas number percent.
Have been found that can detect little of 0.1% sew that is equivalent to introduce the high tension loop air-flow.
Automatically micro processor, apparatus can be according to measuring the bore that concentration changes detecting device 74 automatically, so that increase the kinetic measurement district of helium, its exemplary is to being about 1% from 0.2ppm.
This device can have a lot of mutation.For example, carry out at the upper reaches of the housing 12 that calibration injection can be in low tension loop, shown in Fig. 1 dotted line.
Method of the present invention can be utilized said apparatus, implements in the following manner.
At first by at least one sample tap 64 will take a sample and treating apparatus couple together.Conduit will have enough bores, so that the gas flow rate that sample flow is provided guarantees desired sensitivity (is 0.5 to 1 kilogram/minute to this gas separator).The dirty temperature of refrigeratory must be lower than environment temperature in order to avoid extra condensation occurs at the upper reaches of gas separator 72.Connect injection- tube 26 and 36.
Connect finish after, can proofread and correct by helium being injected the low tension loops that the order of magnitude is generally 12 crust.
Injection operation generally comprises three phases.Under the situation of superheater, for avoiding the danger that has water to exist in the dirty pipe 36 of valve 38, preferably by managing draining to these with the way of compressed nitrogen pneumatic jack water.For this reason, nitrogen pressure is transferred to ratings (vapor pressure+pressure loss promptly for example 16 is clung to), this can be by tensimeter 60a check.Open valve 61 and 52a.Open valve 38 then possibly, so that allow nitrogen that water is ejected.If anhydrous really in the pipeline, when shut-off valve 50a, the pressure of tensimeter 60a indication equates with vapor pressure.Can isolate correction volume 44a this moment by shut-off valve 38.
Must introduce volume 44a to helium then, can imagine has two kinds of methods:
-introduce helium, the original pressure of 12 crust is changed near nitrogen gas pressure, for example 15 crust.Temporarily being stored in amount of helium among the volume 44a this moment equals pressure reduction and multiply by volume;
-or pass through valve 62a and give volume 44a exhaust, boost for this volume with helium then, make pressure change to desired pressure by atmospheric pressure.
Strict injection is by opening nitrogen source of the gas valve 52a in fact, and then opens that introduction valve 38 carries out, and two valves all throw open.This moment, nitrogen ejected nitrogen from managing 36.The injection of multiply by flow velocity is necessary for three to five times of volume, so that remove nitrogen fully.
Passing through successively then, shut-off valve 52a and 38 isolates correction volume 44a.
In practice, detect in from the whole helium clouds that may sew less than one minute.The release time of signal was less than five minutes.Comprised draining total correction time, less than ten minutes.
At last, by opening bleed valve 62a step-down, finish to proofread and correct.
Strictly speaking, all corresponding injection of once helium being injected high tension loop of each mensuration.It is higher to remove helium pressure, measures greatlyyer, so that have outside the enough sensitivity, mode of operation is identical with aforesaid way.For example, if overheated pressure with steam is 55 crust, then nitrogen pressure can be 66 crust, and helium pressure can be 65 crust.
Aut.eq. can be programme, so that periodically duplicate detection in proper order, and increases power of the test when having helium to exist.This device also can all be placed on the car and can do periodic adjustment, or detecting when sewing, can monitor its development.
