Description

Pump pressure type coffee machine brewing kettle with pressure control function and pressure control method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a pumping pressure type coffee machine brewing kettle with a pressure control function and a pressure control method.
Background
Coffee is a beverage prepared by cooking roasted and ground coffee beans as a raw material with water. Coffee beans contain about 100 different substances including caffeine, tannic acid, oil and nitrogen compounds, and are made with various cooking utensils and methods to have different flavors.
Espresso is a method of making coffee, which is known by its origin in italy and is produced mainly by the rapid passage of water or water vapour at high temperature and pressure through coffee powder. Besides extracting water-soluble substances in the coffee powder, high-pressure water can further extract non-water-soluble substances, and lipid in the coffee powder can be completely emulsified and dissolved in water to generate special flavor.
The coffee machine mainly used for the espresso coffee method is a pump type coffee machine, which is a common device for making espresso coffee.
The basic principle of operation will now be described with reference to fig. 1; FIG. 1 shows a coffee maker housing; 2 is a water pipe; 3 is a water tank; 4 is a hot water boiler; 5 is a high-pressure water pump; 6 is a base; 7 is a hot water spray head; 8 is a brewing kettle; 9 is coffee powder; 10 is a coffee outlet. The brewing kettle 8 is a detachable component, is detached before manufacture, is filled with a certain amount of coffee powder, is pressed and flattened by a flat shovel-shaped tool, is connected with the coffee machine body through a screw joint, and is positioned right below the hot water spray nozzle 7. The hot water spray head 7 is provided with honeycomb-shaped openings so as to form uniform hot water flow conveniently. When the coffee machine is started, the hot water boiler 4 is preheated to a certain temperature, then the high-pressure water pump 5 is started, the high-pressure water pump 5 pumps cold water from the water tank 3, the cold water is heated by the hot water boiler 4 after being pressurized, hot water is sprayed into the brewing kettle 8 from the hot water spray head 7 through the water pipe 2, the high-pressure hot water flows through coffee powder in the brewing kettle, and substances such as grease, caffeine and the like in extraction flow out from the coffee outlet 10. Wherein, the pressure of the water in the brewing kettle 8 directly influences the extraction degree of the effective substances in the coffee powder, and is an important factor influencing the flavor of the espresso coffee.
According to the fluid mechanics principle, the runner system of the Italian coffee maker can be divided into a flow system consisting of a high-pressure water pump, a hot water boiler, a hot water spray nozzle, a brewing kettle and water pipes connected with the brewing kettle, wherein the high-pressure water pump provides pressure, and the hot water boiler, the hot water spray nozzle, the brewing kettle and the water pipes connected with all parts form a pipeline system, so that the runner system has self resistance characteristics and comprises two categories of on-way resistance and local resistance. The pressure in the brewing kettle is the result of the balance between the pressure provided by the high-pressure water pump and the resistance of the pipeline system, and the outlet pressure of the high-pressure water pump and the resistance of the pipeline system are not constant and have a certain functional relation with the flow.
For a high-pressure water pump, the pressure and the flow generated by the water pump have a certain functional relationship, which is called as the pressure and flow characteristics of the pump, and the formed functional curve is called as the pressure and flow curve. Taking a typical vane pump as an example for analysis, the pump outlet pressure (in meters) HT is related to the flow qvT by:
Figure BDA0002474332700000021
it can also be abbreviated as:
HT=A-BqVT(2)
in the formula
Figure BDA0002474332700000022
Wherein u2 is the tangential velocity of the fluid outlet blade, and is related to the impeller rotating speed and the impeller diameter, g is the gravity acceleration, D2 is the impeller diameter, b2 is the impeller width, beta 2y is the impeller installation angle, ctg is the symbol of the angle cotangent value, psi is the blade shape coefficient, and pi is the circumferential ratio.
g. Pi is a constant; d2, b2 and beta 2y are structural parameters of the impeller and are also constants; u2 is also constant for the same pump speed.
Therefore, as can be seen from equation (2), if a two-dimensional rectangular coordinate system is formed by taking the pressure HT as the vertical axis and the flow rate qvT as the horizontal axis, the pressure and the flow rate of the pump are a straight line with negative curvature, i.e., the pressure decreases with the increase of the flow rate and increases with the decrease of the flow rate.
For a piping system, the pipe resistance Hc is:
Figure BDA0002474332700000031
wherein Hst is the height difference from the pump outlet to the position in the pipeline system,
Figure BDA0002474332700000032
the resistance coefficient in the pipeline comprises an on-way resistance coefficient and a local resistance coefficient, the on-way resistance coefficient is mainly related to the diameter, the roughness and the length of the pipeline, the local resistance coefficient is related to resistance elements comprising various elbows such as right angles and reducing angles, a throttling orifice plate and the like, and qv is the flow of the system.
It can be seen from the above equation that the overcome pipeline resistance is a quadratic function of the flow rate, and the slope is positive, i.e. the higher the flow rate, the higher the pressure required. If a two-dimensional rectangular coordinate system is formed by taking the pressure Hc as a vertical axis and the flow qv as a horizontal axis, the relationship between the pressure and the flow required for overcoming the resistance of the pipeline as a quadratic function is a quadratic curve.
Generally, the pressure-flow curve of the pump and the resistance-flow curve of the pipe can be drawn in a coordinate system, the pressure and the flow are uniformly expressed in the coordinate system, the vertical axis is the pressure H, and the horizontal axis is the flow qv, so in the flow channel system formed by the pump and the pipe, the intersection point of the pipe and the pressure-flow characteristic curve of the pump is the working point in the pipe, corresponding to the pressure and the flow in the pipe, i.e. the pressure and the flow in the brewing kettle in this case.
For a flow channel system in a coffee machine, the characteristics of the high-pressure water pump are determined. In a pipeline system, the diameter, the roughness and the length of the inner wall of a water pipe are fixed, so that the on-way resistance coefficient is constant; the local resistance characteristic is mainly determined by the hot water spray head and the coffee powder in the brewing kettle, wherein the hot water spray head is provided with honeycomb-shaped openings, so that the hot water spray head is equivalent to a throttling orifice plate and is a throttling element, and larger local resistance can be caused, but the structure is certain, and the generated local resistance is also certain. In the brewing kettle, hot water flows through a plurality of layers of fine flow passages formed among coffee powder particles, and the layer number, the size and the shape of the flow passages are directly related to the quantity, the granularity and the compactness of the placed coffee powder during compaction, so that the local resistance of the coffee powder flowing through the flow passages is directly influenced.
Therefore, in summary, in the flow passage system of the coffee machine, the pressure-flow characteristic of the high-pressure water pump is constant, and the resistance characteristic of the pipe system is influenced by the coffee powder in the brewing kettle and changes with the change of the characteristic of the coffee powder. As shown in fig. 2, 1 is a flow-pressure curve of the water pump, 2 is a characteristic curve of the pipeline when the resistance coefficient is large, 3 is an intersection point of the curve 2 and the curve 1, which is the working point at this time, and correspondingly, the pressure and the flow at this time. And 4 is a pipeline characteristic curve when the resistance coefficient is small, 5 is an intersection point of the curve 3 and the curve 1, namely the working point at the moment, and correspondingly is the pressure and the flow at the moment.
If the flow channel area between the particles is reduced and the flow resistance is large due to the fine particle size and the tight pressure of the coffee powder in the brewing kettle, the characteristic curve is changed to be shown as curve 2, and the corresponding 3 points are working points. If the flow channel area between the particles is increased and the flow resistance is reduced due to the fact that the coffee powder in the brewing kettle is coarse in particle size, loose in compaction and the like, the pipeline characteristic is shown as a curve 4, and the corresponding 5 points are working points. It can be seen that the pressure at point 5 is lower than the pressure at point 4 and that the flow at point 5 is greater than the flow at point 4.
The design and manufacturing field of the existing coffee machine generally only uses the outlet pressure of a high-pressure pump as a design basis.
The pressure concept commonly used in engineering is essentially pressure intensity, and the physical meaning is the sum of vertical components of fluid molecular impact force on a unit area of a wall surface, namely:
Figure BDA0002474332700000041
where p is the pressure, A is the unit area, and F is the sum of the perpendicular components of the fluid molecular impact force. This value is the true pressure at the measured point, also known as the absolute pressure.
In actual measurement, there are two expression modes of absolute pressure and gauge pressure and two corresponding types of pressure sensors:
the sensor directly measures the stress of the environment where the sensitive element of the sensor is located, and then converts the stress into a pressure signal, and the absolute pressure of the measuring point is measured by the measuring mode;
the principle of the relative pressure sensor is explained by a mercury column type pressure gauge shown in figure 3 based on the force balance principle, wherein 1 is a U-shaped glass tube, and 2 is mercury. The right side of the U-shaped glass tube is connected with a part to be measured, and the left side of the U-shaped glass tube is communicated with the atmosphere. Then, according to the principle of force balance, when the mercury 2 in the U-shaped glass tube 1 keeps balanced, it means that the left side and the right side reach force balance, so there are:
pb+ρgh=pr
(5)
where pb is atmospheric pressure, referred to as back pressure; rho is the density of the mercury column, g is the gravity acceleration, h is the height of the mercury column, and pr is the pressure on the right side of the U-shaped glass tube, namely the absolute pressure at the point to be measured.
Let pg=ρgh
Indicating the pressure generated by the mercury column itself, and the formula can be rewritten as that generated for measuring the indication
pa=pg+pb
(6)
I.e. the absolute pressure at the measurement point is the sum of the gauge pressure and the back pressure.
In engineering applications, the pressure at a measuring point is often characterized by gauge pressure due to the low price of the relative pressure type sensor.
Through analysis, the defects and shortcomings of the prior art are mainly reflected in that:
in the prior art, only the outlet pressure of a high-pressure pump is considered, on one hand, the throttling effect of a hot water nozzle is not generated, and the outlet pressure of the high-pressure pump is different from the pressure of a brewing kettle; on the other hand, the pipeline characteristic is not considered, and when the quantity, the granularity and the compaction degree of the coffee powder are changed, the pressure in the brewing kettle is changed, so that the taste of the coffee is influenced; thirdly, when the coffee powder is too fine and compacted or the filter screen is blocked, the flow approaches zero, which causes the overhigh pressure in the brewing kettle, influences the service life of the sealing gasket between the brewing kettle and the coffee machine body, even causes the failure of the sealing gasket by directly jetting high-pressure water out of the sealing gasket, and causes the damage of the internal pipeline in serious conditions, thus causing safety accidents such as pipeline explosion, injury of people by hot water and the like;
the traditional technology adopts gauge pressure as a pressure reference without considering the influence of atmospheric pressure, and the atmospheric pressure is related to the altitude of a place where the atmospheric pressure is located and the weather, and the higher the altitude is, the lower the atmospheric pressure is; the atmospheric pressure at the same location will also vary with weather conditions. As can be seen from equation (6), even though the measured gauge pressure pg indicates no change, if pb changes, the absolute pressure at the measurement point will be different, resulting in a change in the flavor of the coffee.
In summary, the current pump type coffee machine cannot directly measure and control the absolute pressure in the brewing kettle which directly affects the quality of coffee.
