According to the air pressure difference with reference data calculating filter core both sides as relative data.
Embodiments of the invention are described in detail below in conjunction with specific example.
<Example 1>
In the present example, the pressure data for characterizing filter core efficiency is the weight data of filter core.
According to this example, the phasor measurement unit 12 as shown in figure 3, pressure measurement cell is attached most importance to.
Filter core 50 is placed in the measurement surface of weight measurement unit 12, for gathering the weight information of filter core 50.Described
When air flue is the air flue of basic horizontal, most beneficial for the placement of the weight measurement unit 12, now filter core 50 is in nature
It is lower to be located in the measuring surface of the weight measurement unit 12, and the setting of weight measurement unit 12 will not make the filtering surface of filter core
Product is adversely reduced, so as to not interfere with filter efficiency.
Weight measurement unit 12 can be resistance strain type sensor, piezoelectric transducer, piezomagnetic sensor, condenser type
Sensor or the mutual any combination of gyro gauge-type sensor or these sensors.
The computing unit, for using filter core initial weight as reference data, according to the weight data of the filter core with
And the filter core initial weight calculates the weight difference of filter core as relative data.The initial weight of the filter core can be stored in
Among one memory cell (not shown), the storage can be preset in the memory cell when equipment is dispatched from the factory, can also be with
Artificially inputted and stored by maintenance personal or user afterwards.
It is to be understood that filter core 50 has certain initial weight value in untapped state, in use for some time,
The particulate matter of a part can be adsorbed, causes weight small increase occur, the present embodiment is by detecting the increasing of filter core weight change value
Calais judges the filtering efficiency of filter core, i.e., when weight difference exceedes specific threshold, it can be understood as filter core 50 needs to change.Institute
It can be the empirical value pre-set to state specific threshold, and this empirical value can change according to actual conditions in actual applications
Become.Form or curve can be formed by lot of experimental data, interpolation method or fitting process can be used during forming curves.Shape
Into after form or curve, it is specific can reversely to derive that the data corresponding to it are used as by the minimum efficiency that can be tolerated
Threshold value.
For example, the specific threshold that can set weight difference is 1 μ g, filter core at a time increases weight relative to original state
1 μ g, i.e. weight difference are 1 μ g, are learnt by inquiring about experimental data form, and now efficiency corresponding to filter core is less than predetermined effect
Can be, it is necessary to be changed.
The graph of relation of the filtering efficiency of weight difference and filter core is as shown in figure 4, the curve map can be by fitting process
Draw.Figure 4, it is seen that this relation is similar to inversely prroportional relationship, weight difference is bigger, and the filtering efficiency of filter core 50 is got over
It is small, when this weight difference is reduced to a stable value, it can be understood as filter core 50 needs to change.
<Example 2>
In the present example, the pressure data for characterizing filter core efficiency is the barometric information along airflow direction upper filter both sides.
According to this example, as shown in figure 5, the pressure measurement cell is the first barometric surveying unit 14, mistake is arranged on
The first barometric surveying unit in path is filtered, for gathering the barometric information filtered in path.
Described device also includes being arranged on the second barometric surveying unit 16 not filtered in path, is not filtered for collection logical
Barometric information in road is supplied to the calculating single as corresponding to the reference data for having filtered the barometric information in path
Member.
The computing unit 20, for having filtered barometric information and reference data calculating filter in path according to
The air pressure difference of core both sides is as relative data.
Although in the present example, employ two barometric surveying units (14,16), one of ordinary skill in the art
It should be understood that some sensors in the prior art be present has two measuring units in itself, therefore can be only using a biography
Sensor can measures pressure difference value, but other sensors only have a measuring unit, it is therefore desirable to two similar biographies
Sensor can just measure pressure difference value, and these can be selected as needed, it is impossible to be construed as limiting the invention.
First barometric surveying unit 14 and the second barometric surveying unit 16 can be differential pressure pick-up, difference sensor or exhausted
Pressure sensor.
The graph of relation of the filtering efficiency of air pressure difference and filter core is as shown in fig. 6, the curve map can be by fitting process
Draw.From fig. 6 it can be seen that this relation is similar to inversely prroportional relationship, pressure difference value is relevant with many factors, such as air
Flowing velocity, airway diameter, air inlet pipe and outlet length of tube, gas density, the filtration coefficient etc. of filter core.It can generally recognize
For pressure differential is bigger, then the filtering efficiency of filter core is smaller, (the certain threshold when this air pressure difference is reduced to a stable value
Value), it can be understood as filter core 50 needs to change.
For example, the difference for the pressure that the first barometric surveying unit measures the both sides of filter core 50 with the second barometric surveying unit is
0.003N, learnt by inquiring about experimental data form, now corresponding filter core efficiency is less than predetermined threshold value, and filter core needs to carry out
Change.
