Ezimbonini ezifana nokwelashwa kwamanzi amdaka kamasipala, izimayini, kanye nokucubungula amakhemikhali, ukukala ukugeleza koketshezi oluyinkimbinkimbi—kungakhathaliseki ukuthi indle igcwele udoti noma udaka lwamaminerali oluqothulayo—kudinga amathuluzi aklanyelwe lezi zimo ezinzima. Phakathi kwama-flowmeter e-ultrasonic, ubuchwepheshe obubili obuvelele buvelele: amamodeli e-Doppler kanye nesikhathi sokuthutha. Ngenkathi womabili ethembele kumaza omsindo ukuze alinganiswe, izimiso zawo eziyinhloko, amandla, kanye nemikhawulo kuhluka kakhulu, okwenza (ukukhetha) kubaluleke kakhulu ekusebenzeni okuthembekile ekusetshenzisweni kwamanzi amdaka kanye nodaka. Ukuqonda lokhu kungafani kuqinisekisa ukuthi opharetha bagwema ukungalingani okubizayo, banciphise isikhathi sokungasebenzi, futhi balondoloze idatha enembile yokuhambisana nokusebenza kahle.
Izimiso Zokusebenza Eziyinhloko: Isisekelo Somehluko
Umehluko oyinhloko phakathi kwama-Doppler nama-flowmeter e-transit-time usekutheni asebenzisana kanjani noketshezi olulinganiswayo—ikakhulukazi mayelana nezinhlayiya ezilengayo noma amabhamuza, atholakala yonke indawo emanzini angcolile nasemadakeni.
Ama-flowmeter e-Doppler asebenzisa umphumela we-Doppler, into lapho imvamisa yamagagasi omsindo ishintsha khona lapho ibonakalisa izinto ezihambayo. Nansi indlela esebenza ngayo: I-transducer ebambekayo efakwe ngaphandle kwepayipi ikhipha amagagasi e-ultrasonic avame kakhulu (0.5-5 MHz) odongeni lwepayipi iye oketshezini. Lawa magagasi agxuma ezinhlayiyeni ezilengayo, amabhamuza, noma ukuxokozela emfudlaneni; izinhlayiya ezihambayo zishintsha imvamisa yamagagasi abonisiwe (ukucindezela amagagasi uma izinhlayiya zihambela ku-transducer, ziwalule uma zihamba). Iprosesa yesignali yemitha ibala lokhu kushintsha kwamagagasi, bese isebenzisa ububanzi bepayipi kanye nezakhiwo zamagagasi ukuze ithole izinga lokugeleza. Okubaluleke kakhulu, amamodeli e-Doppler adinga izinhlayiya noma amabhamuza ukuze asebenze—azikwazi ukukala uketshezi oluhlanzekile, olungenazinhlayiya.
Ama-flowmeter esikhathi sokuthutha, ngokuphambene, alinganisa isikhathi esithathwa amagagasi e-ultrasonic ukuhamba ngoketshezi ngokwalo, hhayi izinhlayiya eziveziwe. Asebenzisa ama-transducer amabili (elinye elingaphezulu komfula, elinye elingezansi komfula) afakwe epayipini. Isignali ihamba isuka ku-transducer engenhla komfula iye kwelengezansi komfula, ihamba nokugeleza koketshezi (kunciphisa isikhathi sokuhamba), kanti elinye isignali lihamba lisuka kwelengezansi komfula liye kwelengenhla, lisebenza ngokumelene nokugeleza (ukwandisa isikhathi sokuhamba). Imitha ibala umehluko wesikhathi phakathi kwalezi zibonakaliso ezimbili; lo mehluko ulingana ngqo nesivinini soketshezi, esibe sesiguqulwa sibe yisilinganiso sokugeleza. Ngokungafani namamodeli e-Doppler, amamitha esikhathi sokuthutha athembele kuketshezi ukuze adlulise amagagasi omsindo—asebenza kahle kakhulu ngoketshezi oluhlanzekile, olufana futhi alwa nokugxila okuphezulu kwezinhlayiya okuhlakaza noma okumunca izimpawu.
Ukuhambisana Koketshezi: Isici Sokwakheka Noma Ukuphuka Kwamanzi Angcolile Nama-slurries
Ekusetshenzisweni kwamanzi amdaka kanye nodaka, ukwakheka koketshezi kuyisici esibaluleke kakhulu ekukhetheni phakathi kwalezi zindlela zobuchwepheshe ezimbili.
Ama-flowmeter e-Doppler asebenza kahle kakhulu ngoketshezi “olungcolile”—uhlobo olutholakala emanzini angcolile kanye nezinhlelo zodaka. Amanzi angcolile kamasipala, isibonelo, aqukethe udoti wemvelo, utshani, kanye nama-bubble omoya; ama-slurry ezimayini athwala izinhlayiya ezirhabaxa njengelahle, i-limestone, noma i-ore yensimbi; kanye nama-slurry ezimboni (isb., ekucubungulweni kokudla noma ekukhiqizweni kwamakhemikhali) angafaka izinto eziqinile njenge-catalyst fines noma i-pulp. Lezi zinhlayiya zisebenza “njengezibonisi” zamagagasi e-ultrasonic e-Doppler meter, okuqinisekisa isignali enamandla nesebenzisekayo. Ngisho nama-slurry aqinile kakhulu (isb., i-cement paste noma izingxube zomanyolo) azinankinga kangako, njengoba ukwakheka kwe-meter okungangenisi umswakama kugwema ukuthintana noketshezi—okususa ukuvaleka noma ukuguguleka kwezinto eziqinile ezirhabaxa.
Nokho, ama-flowmeter esikhathi sokuthutha ayalwa noketshezi olugcwele izinhlayiya. Izinto eziqinile ezilengisiwe zihlakaza amagagasi e-ultrasonic, zenze buthaka noma ziphazamise isignali phakathi kwama-transducer amabili. Emanzini angcolile anokuqukethwe okuphezulu kwemfucumfucu, lokhu kungaholela ekufundweni okungaguquki noma ekulahlekelweni okuphelele kwesignali. Kuma-slurries anokugcwala okuqinile okungaphezu kuka-1-2% (ngomthamo), amamitha esikhathi sokuthutha avame ukwehluleka ukugcina ukunemba, njengoba izinhlayiya zivimba indlela yomsindo. Zifaneleka kangcono emifudlaneni yamanzi angcolile “ahlanzekile”—njengokungcola okulungisiwe ngezinto eziqinile ezincane—noma izinqubo lapho uketshezi luhlungwa ngaphambi kokulinganiswa. Kuma-dructure aluhlaza noma ukusetshenziswa kwe-slurry esindayo, amamodeli esikhathi sokuthutha abeka engcupheni ukulinganiswa noma ukushintshwa njalo ngenxa yokuphazamiseka kwesignali.
Ukunemba, Ukufakwa, kanye Nokugcinwa: Ukushintshana Okusebenzayo
Ngale kokuhambisana koketshezi, izinto ezicatshangelwayo ezinjengokunemba, ukulula kokufakwa, kanye nezidingo zokunakekelwa zihlukanisa ubuchwepheshe obubili ezimweni zokusetshenziswa kwamanzi amdaka kanye nodaka.
Ukunemba
Ama-flowmeter e-Doppler ngokuvamile anikeza amabanga okunemba angu-±1–3% wokufundwa koketshezi olugcwele izinhlayiya—okwanele ukusetshenziswa kwamanzi angcolile amaningi kanye ne-slurry, lapho ukudluliselwa okuqondile kokugcinwa (isb., ukukhokhisa uphethiloli) kungavamile njengokuqapha inqubo. Ukunemba kwawo kuhlala kuzinzile ngisho nangama-concentration e-particle aguquguqukayo (inqobo nje uma umkhawulo omncane ongu-~10 ppm uhlangatshezwa) kanye namazinga okugeleza aphansi (phansi ku-0.1 m/s), okwenza kube kuhle kakhulu ukuqapha ama-slurry ahamba kancane emipayipini yezimayini noma eziteshini zamanzi angcolile ahamba kancane.
Ama-flowmeter esikhathi sokuthutha anikeza ukunemba okuphezulu (± 0.5–1% kokufundwa) kodwa kuphela emanzini ahlanzekile. Emanzini angcolile noma emanzini amdaka, ukunemba kwawo konakala ngokushesha ngokuqukethwe kwezinhlayiya okwandayo. Isibonelo, emanzini angcolile angavuthiwe ane-5% yezinto eziqinile, isilinganiso samaphutha semitha yesikhathi sokuthutha singafinyelela ku-± 5% noma ngaphezulu—akwamukeleki ezinqubweni eziqhutshwa ukuthobela imithetho njengokuqapha ukukhishwa kwamanzi angcolile.
Ukufakwa
Zombili lezi zobuchwepheshe zisebenzisa imiklamo ye-clamp-on (engangenisi), okuyinzuzo enkulu yezinhlelo zamanzi amdaka kanye ne-slurry—akudingeki ukusika amapayipi, ukushisela, noma ukuvala, okunciphisa isikhathi sokufaka kusukela ezinsukwini (zamamitha angaphakathi) kuya emahoreni. Kodwa-ke, ama-flowmeter e-Doppler anemikhawulo embalwa yokufaka: asebenza ngezinto eziningi zamapayipi (insimbi, i-PVC, ukhonkolo) kanye nobukhulu, njengoba isignali yawo idinga ukufinyelela nokubonisa izinhlayiya kuphela. Abekezelela nezimo zamapayipi ezingaguquki (isb., ukugqwala okuncane noma ukukala), okuvamile kumapayipi amanzi amdaka.
Ama-flowmeter esikhathi sokuhamba adinga ukufakwa okunembe kakhudlwana: izindonga zamapayipi kumele zibe bushelelezi futhi zifane ukuze kugwenywe ukuphambuka kwesignali, futhi ibanga phakathi kwama-transducer (elibalwe ngokusekelwe kububanzi bepayipi nezinto ezisetshenziswayo) kumele libe liqondile. Ukukhula noma ukugqwala ngaphakathi kwamapayipi kungavimba amaza omsindo, okuphoqa ukuhlanzwa njalo—ukukhathazeka okwengeziwe ezinhlelweni zamanzi amdaka lapho amapayipi evame ukwakheka khona.
Ukulungiswa
Ama-flowmeter e-Doppler anezidingo ezincane zokulungisa amanzi angcolile kanye nokusetshenziswa kodaka. Njengoba kungekho zingxenye zangaphakathi noma izingxenye ezimanzi, akukho bungozi bokuvimbeka, ukugqwala, noma ukuguguleka okuvela ezintweni eziqinile ezirhabaxa. Ukuhlolwa okuvamile (isb., ukuqinisekisa ukuhambisana kwe-transducer noma ukuhlanza izindawo zangaphandle) kwanele ukuzigcina zisebenza, ngezikhawu zokulinganisa zeminyaka eyi-1-2.
Ama-flowmeter esikhathi sokuhamba adinga ukulungiswa okwengeziwe ezindaweni ezingcolile zoketshezi. Nakuba ukwakheka kwawo kokubopha kugwema ukuthintana ngqo koketshezi, ukuphazamiseka kwesignali okuvela ezinhlayiyeni kuvame ukudinga ukulinganiswa kabusha njalo (ngezinye izikhathi njalo ezinyangeni ezi-6) ukuze kugcinwe ukunemba. Ezimweni ezimbi kakhulu, abaqhubi bangadinga ukuhlanza ingaphakathi lamapayipi ukuze basuse usayizi noma imfucuza— inqubo ethatha isikhathi eside ephazamisa ukuhamba komsebenzi, ikakhulukazi ezitshalweni ezinkulu zokuhlanza amanzi amdaka.
Isiphetho: Ukukhetha Ithuluzi Elifanele Lomsebenzi
Ngokusebenzisa amanzi angcolile kanye ne-slurry, ukukhetha phakathi kwe-Doppler kanye ne-transit-time flowmeters kuncike ekuhlanzekeni koketshezi kanye nezinto eziza kuqala ekusebenzeni. Ama-Doppler flowmeters ayisinqumo esicacile samanzi angcolile angavuthiwe, ama-slurry ezimayini, nanoma yiluphi uketshezi olunezinhlayiya noma amabhamuza abalulekile: ukuthembela kwawo ekubonisweni kwezinhlayiya kuqinisekisa ukufundwa okuthembekile, kuyilapho ukwakheka kwawo okungangenisi kunciphisa ukulungiswa kanye nesikhathi sokungasebenzi. Ahweba ngokunemba okuphansi kancane ukuze athole ukuqina okungenakuqhathaniswa ezimweni ezinzima—afanelekela ukuqapha inqubo, ukuthobela imithetho, kanye nokulandelela ukusebenza kahle.
Ama-flowmeter esikhathi sokuhamba, ngokuphambene, angcono agcinelwe amanzi angcolile ahlanzekile noma ahlungiwe kancane (isb., ukungcola okuhlanziwe) lapho ukunemba okuphezulu kubalulekile khona futhi ukuphazamiseka kwezinhlayiya kuncane. Ukuwasebenzisa emanzini angcolile angavuthiwe noma ama-slurry asindayo kuyingozi yamaphutha avamile, ukulungiswa okubizayo, kanye nokubambezeleka kokusebenza.
Ekugcineni, ukukhetha i-ultrasonic flowmeter efanele akukhona nje ubuchwepheshe—kumayelana nokufanisa amandla e-meter nezinselele eziyingqayizivele zoketshezi. Emhlabeni “ongcolile” wamanzi angcolile kanye ne-slurry, ama-Doppler flowmeter avelele njengesisombululo esiwusizo nesinokwethenjelwa kakhulu.
