The present invention is described in further detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the method flow diagram of an embodiment of reminding cleaning of electric heater method provided by the invention.
Fig. 2 is the composition structure chart of an embodiment of reminding cleaning of electric heater device provided by the invention.
The specific embodiment
With reference to figure 1, this figure is the method flow diagram of an embodiment of reminding cleaning of electric heater method provided by the invention; As shown in the figure, particularly, the process that present embodiment is finished a clean prompting is as follows:
Heat to liquid with a constant power, in the process of heating,, and calculate its actual mean temperature variable quantity with the temperature of a time interval measurement liquid in container of presetting;
A described actual average temperature variation and a preset reference value are compared, as if reaching or, then sending clean prompting greater than this a reference value.
During specific implementation, described a reference value can be preset in several ways, and its principle is the ratio thermal characteristics according to material, and promptly under the same terms, different material absorbs identical heat, and its variations in temperature is according to the difference of its specific heat and difference.Therefore, can select a kind of liquid for use, as a comparison with the benchmark object that detects, and default suitable impurity content limit value, as 5%, with under certain conditions, the mean temperature changing value when liquid impurity content reaches this default limit value is as a reference value.
Perhaps, with under certain conditions, the mean temperature changing value of neat liquid and a default temperature allowance sum are as a reference value.
Because in all substances, specific heat of water is maximum, for 1cal/g ℃, also conveniently obtain equally, therefore, adopt water as detecting and comparison other.
During specific implementation, for accurately measuring water temperature, temperature sensor preferably directly contacts with water, and in this case, water temperature is within 40 ℃~70 ℃ scopes the time, its variations in temperature is comparatively average, with the described default time interval is to be 10 seconds example, when detecting temperature and reach 40 ℃, and the opening entry variations in temperature, until to 70 ℃ of end, calculate water temperature in 40 ℃~70 ℃ scopes per 10 second temperature-averaging variable quantity △ T1;
According to the ratio thermal characteristics of liquid, because the specific heat ratio of pure water is bigger, so when heated water was free from foreign meter, the mean change amount in 10 seconds of water temperature was little; And when containing impurity in the water,, cause the mean change quantitative change of water temperature in 10 seconds big because its specific heat diminishes;
During specific implementation, the mean temperature variable quantity that pure water should reach can calculate by specific heat formula Q=cm △ T1 in theory, but in fact, this numerical value also can be subjected to the influence of factors such as the structure of heating vessel and size, therefore, preferably by recording the pure water mean temperature variable quantity in 10 seconds with the experiment under the condition, and this mean temperature variable quantity is deposited in the control device, as preset reference value.
For example, having recorded the mean temperature variable quantity in 10 seconds of pure water by experiment is 5.47 ℃; And under the same conditions, when the impurity concentration in the water reached 5%, the mean change amount that records water temperature per 10 seconds by experiment was 6.52; Therefore, can be directly reaching the mean change amount in 5% o'clock water temperature per 10 second with described impurity concentration is 6.52 ℃; Perhaps be 5.47 ℃ and add a suitable allowance with the mean temperature variable quantity in 10 seconds of pure water, as 1 ℃, 6.47 ℃; It is arbitrary as preset reference value to select it.
Thereby, when then only needing to judge that water temperature is in 40 ℃~70 ℃ scopes, whether the mean change amount in its 10 second meets or exceeds 6.52 ℃ (6.47 ℃), if meet or exceed 6.52 ℃ (6.47 ℃), then can point out the user to have cleaned by caution means such as the flicker LED lamp or the buzzers that pipes to heating vessel.
Perhaps, heating appliances in the market, coffee pot particularly, owing to reasons such as structures, it generally is the temperature of coming indirect detection water by the temperature that detects heater strip, in this case, when detected temperature range is between 103~107 ℃, its variations in temperature is more even, so can select this scope to detect, is to be 3 seconds example with the described default time interval, when detecting temperature and reach 103 ℃, the opening entry variations in temperature, until to 107 ℃ of end, and calculate water temperature in 103~107 ℃ of scopes per 3 second temperature-averaging variable quantity △ T1;
It is same as above that it detects principle, record under the pure water situation through experiment, the temperature of temperature sensor per 3 second variable quantity be 0.9 ℃; And reach in impurity concentration under 5% the situation, the temperature of temperature sensor per 3 second variable quantity be 3.6 ℃, therefore, can be directly reaching the mean change amount in 5% o'clock water temperature per 3 second with described impurity concentration is 3.6 ℃; Perhaps be 0.9 ℃ and add a suitable allowance with the mean temperature variable quantity in 3 seconds of pure water, as 2 ℃, 2.9 ℃; Select its arbitrary value as preset reference value.
Thereby, only need to judge when detected water temperature is in 103 ℃~107 ℃ scope, whether the mean change amount in 3 seconds of water temperature meets or exceeds 3.6 ℃ of a reference values (or 2.9 ℃), if meet or exceed 3.6 ℃ (or 2.9 ℃), then can point out the user to have cleaned by caution means such as the flicker LED lamp or the buzzers that pipes to heating vessel.
