Description

本発明は、予め用意された希釈ガスによって希釈された、成分濃度が未知の試料ガスをガス分析計に導入し、ガス分析計による測定で得られた希釈後の試料ガスの成分濃度から、希釈前の試料ガスの正確な成分濃度を算出する方法および装置に関するものである。   The present invention introduces a sample gas whose component concentration is unknown, which is diluted with a dilution gas prepared in advance, into the gas analyzer, and dilutes it from the component concentration of the diluted sample gas obtained by measurement with the gas analyzer. The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for calculating an accurate component concentration of a previous sample gas.

内燃機関、燃料改質システムおよび燃料電池等の開発においては、それらから発生する試料ガスに含まれる各成分ガスの濃度をガス分析計を用いて検出し、それによって性能や作動状態を把握することが重要である。
この場合、ガス分析計には測定可能濃度範囲(測定レンジ)があり、試料ガスの濃度がこの測定レンジ内にあるときは、正確な測定値が得られるが、試料ガスの濃度がこの測定レンジ外にあるときは、得られる測定値は不正確なものとなることは良く知られている。
In the development of internal combustion engines, fuel reforming systems, fuel cells, etc., the concentration of each component gas contained in the sample gas generated from them is detected using a gas analyzer, thereby grasping the performance and operating state is important.
In this case, the gas analyzer has a measurable concentration range (measurement range), and when the sample gas concentration is within this measurement range, accurate measurement values can be obtained, but the sample gas concentration is within this measurement range. It is well known that when it is outside, the measurements obtained are inaccurate.

一方、試料ガスは、通常、多量の燃料成分や反応成分を含んでおり、比較的高濃度である場合が多い。そのため、試料ガスがガス分析計の測定レンジを恒常的に超える場合には、試料ガスを、例えば窒素や空気等によって希釈し、希釈後のガスをガス分析計によって測定することが多い。
また、採取可能な試料ガスの量が少量であって、ガス分析計に必要なガス流量が確保できない場合にも、ガス流量を増やすために希釈が行われることがある。
On the other hand, the sample gas usually contains a large amount of fuel components and reaction components and is often relatively high in concentration. Therefore, when the sample gas is constantly greater than the measurement range of the gas analyzer, the sample gas, for example, diluted with nitrogen or air or the like, it is often the gas after dilution is measured by the gas analyzer.
Even when the amount of sample gas that can be collected is small and the gas flow rate required for the gas analyzer cannot be secured, dilution may be performed to increase the gas flow rate.

そして、従来技術においては、試料ガスを希釈してその成分濃度を測定する形式のガス分析装置として、例えば、ガス発生源に連なる流路を流れる試料ガスの一部をサンプリングし、サンプリングした試料ガスを希釈ガスによって希釈し、希釈した試料ガスを質量流量計(マスフローメータ)によって質量流量を測定しつつガス分析計に導入し、ガス分析計によって試料ガスの希釈後の成分濃度を測定する一方、希釈後の試料ガスの質量流量と希釈ガスの質量流量との差を試料ガス流量として希釈率を算出し、この希釈率に基づいて、試料ガスの希釈後の成分濃度から試料ガスの希釈前の成分濃度を求めるようにしたものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   In the prior art, as a gas analyzer of the type that dilutes the sample gas and measures its component concentration, for example, a part of the sample gas flowing through the flow path connected to the gas generation source is sampled, and the sample gas sampled While the diluted sample gas is introduced into the gas analyzer while measuring the mass flow rate with a mass flow meter (mass flow meter), the component concentration after dilution of the sample gas is measured with the gas analyzer, The dilution rate is calculated using the difference between the mass flow rate of the sample gas after dilution and the mass flow rate of the dilution gas as the sample gas flow rate. Based on this dilution rate, the component concentration before dilution of the sample gas is calculated from the component concentration after dilution of the sample gas. There is one in which the component concentration is obtained (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

しかしながら、このガス分析装置においては、試料ガスの希釈率が大きくなって、希釈後の試料ガスの質量流量と希釈ガスの質量流量との差、すなわち、試料ガスの質量流量が小さくなると、当該試料ガスの質量流量の算出(測定)時に質量流量計の測定誤差の影響が大きくなって、その結果、希釈率の算出、さらには、試料ガスの希釈前の成分濃度の算出に誤差を生じるという問題があった。   However, in this gas analyzer, if the dilution rate of the sample gas increases and the difference between the diluted sample gas mass flow rate and the diluted gas mass flow rate, that is, the sample gas mass flow rate decreases, the sample gas The measurement error of the mass flow meter is greatly affected when calculating (measuring) the mass flow rate of the gas, resulting in an error in the calculation of the dilution rate and further the calculation of the component concentration before dilution of the sample gas was there.

以下、添付図面を参照して本発明の好ましい実施例を説明する。図1は、本発明の1実施例によるガス成分濃度算出方法のフロー図である。
図1を参照して、本発明によれば、まず、質量流量計の流量表示値をモニタリグしつつ試料ガスが供給されるとともに、試料ガスに予め用意された希釈ガスの一定質量流量が混合され、混合されたガスがガス分析計に導入されることにより、試料ガスの希釈後成分濃度がガス分析計によって測定される(図1のステップS1)。
Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a gas component concentration calculation method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, according to the present invention, first, a sample gas is supplied while monitoring a flow rate display value of a mass flow meter, and a predetermined mass flow rate of a dilution gas prepared in advance is mixed with the sample gas. Then, the mixed gas is introduced into the gas analyzer, whereby the component concentration after dilution of the sample gas is measured by the gas analyzer (step S1 in FIG. 1).

この場合、希釈ガスとしては、使用されるガス分析計によって検出されないガス、例えば、窒素ガスおよびアルゴンガス等の不活性ガスが用いられる。また、希釈ガスの供給は、例えば、質量流量調整器(マスフローコントローラ)を用いて行われる。
また、ガス分析計としては、公知の任意のガス分析計(例えば、FTIR法ガス分析計、質量分析計およびNDIR法分析計等)が使用可能であり、さらには、必要に応じて、複数のガス分析計を使用することもできる。
In this case, as the dilution gas, a gas that is not detected by the gas analyzer used, for example, an inert gas such as nitrogen gas or argon gas is used. In addition, the dilution gas is supplied using, for example, a mass flow controller (mass flow controller).
As the gas analyzer, any known gas analyzer (for example, FTIR gas analyzer, mass spectrometer, NDIR analyzer, etc.) can be used, and a plurality of gas analyzers can be used as necessary. A gas analyzer can also be used.

次に、質量流量計の流量表示値Fおよび希釈ガスの質量流量Fから希釈率αが計算され、当該希釈率αと試料ガスの希釈後成分濃度m(i=1、2、・・・、n)とから試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度M(i=1、2、・・・、n)が

Figure 0005238094
に従って算出される(図1のステップS2)。
そして、試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度M(i=1、2、・・・、n)と、試料ガスの各成分の流量補正係数CF(i=1、2、・・・、n)とから試料ガスの合成流量補正係数CFが、

に従って計算され、当該合成流量補正係数CFと、質量流量計の固有の流量補正係数CFとを用いて質量流量計の流量表示値Fが、
Figure 0005238094
に従って補正され、試料ガスの質量流量Fsampleが得られる(図1のステップS3)。 Next, a dilution rate α 0 is calculated from the flow rate display value F 0 of the mass flow meter and the dilution gas mass flow rate F 1 , and the dilution rate α 0 and the diluted component concentration mi (i = 1, 2) of the sample gas. ,..., N) and the sample gas concentration M i (i = 1, 2,..., N) before dilution of the sample gas is
Figure 0005238094
(Step S2 in FIG. 1).
Then, the component concentration M i (i = 1, 2,..., N) before dilution of the sample gas and the flow rate correction coefficient CF i (i = 1, 2,..., N) of each component of the sample gas. From the above, the sample gas synthesis flow rate correction coefficient CF is

The flow rate display value F 0 of the mass flow meter is calculated using the composite flow rate correction coefficient CF and the inherent flow rate correction coefficient CF 0 of the mass flow meter,
Figure 0005238094
Thus, the mass flow rate F sample of the sample gas is obtained (step S3 in FIG. 1).

そして、ステップS3で補正された流量表示値(=試料ガスの質量流量Fsample)と、希釈ガスの質量流量Fとから希釈率αが

Figure 0005238094
に従って計算され、当該希釈率αと、試料ガスの希釈後成分濃度m(i=1、・・・、n)とから、試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度M(i=1、・・・、n)が、

に従って算出される(図1のステップS4)。 The corrected flow rate display value in step S3 (= the mass flow rate F sample of the sample gas), the dilution ratio α from the mass flow rate F 1 Tokyo diluent gas

(Step S4 in FIG. 1).

そして、(5)式で得られた試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度Mを(2)式に代入することによって、試料ガスの合成流量補正係数CFが再計算され、当該再計算された合成流量補正係数CFと、質量流量計の固有の流量補正係数CFとから、(3)式に従って、質量流量計の流量表示値Fが再補正され、補正された試料ガスの質量流量Fsampleが得られる(図1のステップS5)。
次に、ステップS5で補正された流量表示値(=補正された試料ガスの質量流量Fsample)と、希釈ガスの質量流量Fとから、(4)式に従って希釈率αが再計算され、当該再計算された希釈率αを用いて、(5)式に従って、試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度Mが再計算される(図1のステップS6)。
Then, (5) by substituting the pre-dilution component concentration M i of the sample gas obtained in (2) in formula is recalculated synthetic flow rate correction factor CF of the sample gas, the recalculated synthesized flow From the correction coefficient CF and the flow rate correction coefficient CF 0 inherent to the mass flow meter, the flow rate display value F 0 of the mass flow meter is re-corrected according to the equation (3), and the corrected mass flow rate F sample of the sample gas is Is obtained (step S5 in FIG. 1).
Next, from the flow rate display value corrected in step S5 (= corrected sample gas mass flow rate F sample ) and the dilution gas mass flow rate F 1 , the dilution rate α is recalculated according to the equation (4), using dilution α which is the recalculated according (5), pre-dilution component concentration M i of the sample gas is recalculated (step S6 in FIG. 1).

さらに、ステップS6で再計算された試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度と、当該再計算前の試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度との差が計算され(図1のステップS7)、当該差が予め決定された閾値と比較される(図1のステップS8)。この閾値は、算出される試料ガスの成分濃度値の望まれた精度に応じて決定される。
そして、当該差が予め決定した閾値よりも小さいときは、ステップS6で再計算された試料ガスの成分濃度を試料ガスの正確な成分濃度として処理が終了される(図1のステップS9)が、当該差が閾値に等しいかまたはそれよりも大きいときは、ステップS6で再計算された試料ガスの成分濃度を用いて、再度、ステップS5〜S8が順次実行される。
Further, the difference between the pre-dilution component concentration of the sample gas recalculated in step S6 and the pre-dilution component concentration of the sample gas before the re-calculation is calculated (step S7 in FIG. 1), and the difference is determined in advance. (Step S8 in FIG. 1). This threshold is determined according to the desired accuracy of the calculated component concentration of the sample gas.
When the difference is smaller than a predetermined threshold value, the processing is terminated with the component concentration of the sample gas recalculated in step S6 as the accurate component concentration of the sample gas (step S9 in FIG. 1). When the difference is equal to or larger than the threshold value, steps S5 to S8 are sequentially executed again using the component concentration of the sample gas recalculated in step S6.

こうして、本発明は、質量流量計を用いて複数ガスの混合ガスの質量流量を測定する場合、当該質量流量計の表示流量が、当該混合ガスの成分濃度、各成分の流量補正係数、並びに当該質量流量計の固有の流量補正係数とを用いて補正される点、および、ガス分析計によって測定されるのはあくまでも試料ガスの希釈後の成分濃度である点に鑑み、質量流量計による試料ガスの希釈前の質量流量の測定値と、希釈ガスの質量流量と、ガス分析計による試料ガスの希釈後の成分濃度の測定値と、試料ガスの各成分の流量補正係数および質量流量計の固有の流量補正係数とを用い、反復計算法に従って、質量流量計の測定値、および当該質量流量計の測定値から得られる希釈率、および当該希釈率から得られる試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度を、所定の精度が得られるまで繰り返し補正し、それによって、試料ガスの正確な成分濃度を算出するようにしている。
それ故、本発明によれば、試料ガスの希釈率の変動の如何にかかわらず、常に、試料ガスの正確な成分濃度が得られる。
Thus, in the present invention, when the mass flow rate of a mixed gas of a plurality of gases is measured using a mass flow meter, the display flow rate of the mass flow meter includes the component concentration of the mixed gas, the flow rate correction coefficient of each component, and the In view of the point that is corrected using the inherent flow rate correction coefficient of the mass flow meter, and that the gas analyzer measures only the component concentration after dilution of the sample gas, the sample gas from the mass flow meter Of the mass flow rate before dilution of the sample gas, the mass flow rate of the dilution gas, the measured value of the component concentration after dilution of the sample gas by the gas analyzer, the flow rate correction coefficient of each component of the sample gas, and the mass flow meter specific In accordance with an iterative calculation method, the dilution rate obtained from the measurement value of the mass flow meter, the dilution rate obtained from the measurement value of the mass flow meter, and the pre-dilution component concentration of the sample gas obtained from the dilution rate, Predetermined Repeatedly corrected to an accuracy is obtained, thereby being possible to calculate an accurate component concentration of the sample gas.
Therefore, according to the present invention, an accurate component concentration of the sample gas can always be obtained regardless of variations in the dilution rate of the sample gas.

また、上記一連のステップを、予め決定された時間間隔で連続的に繰り返し実行することによって、濃度変化のある試料ガスの成分濃度を連続的に測定することができる。
なお、本発明では、上述のように、反復計算法に従って、質量流量計の流量表示値(測定値)、希釈率および試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度を、所定の精度が得られるまで繰り返し補正し、それによって、試料ガスの正確な成分濃度を算出しており、よって、上記反復計算の過程では、試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度の精度の上昇とともに、質量流量計の流量表示値の精度も上昇する。したがって、試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度の代わりに、質量流量計の流量表示値に着目し、反復計算において、補正後の流量表示値と補正前の流量表示値の差が所定の閾値より小さくなった時点での試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度を試料ガスの正確な成分濃度とすることもできる。
Moreover, the component concentration of the sample gas having a concentration change can be continuously measured by repeatedly executing the above series of steps continuously at predetermined time intervals.
In the present invention, as described above, according to the iterative calculation method, the flow rate display value (measurement value) of the mass flow meter, the dilution rate, and the concentration of the sample gas before dilution are repeatedly corrected until a predetermined accuracy is obtained. Therefore, the accurate component concentration of the sample gas is calculated. Therefore, in the above iterative calculation process, the accuracy of the flow rate display value of the mass flowmeter increases as the accuracy of the concentration of the sample gas before dilution increases. To do. Therefore, paying attention to the flow rate display value of the mass flow meter instead of the pre-dilution component concentration of the sample gas, the iterative calculation makes the difference between the corrected flow rate display value and the uncorrected flow rate display value smaller than a predetermined threshold value. It is also possible to set the component concentration of the sample gas before dilution at the time when the sample gas is in an accurate component concentration.

次に、上記反復計算によって、試料ガスの希釈前成分濃度が次第にその正確な値に収れんしていく過程を調べるべく、コンピュータによるシミュレーションを行った。
今、組成が、
・成分1:7vol%(流量補正係数=0.8)
・成分2:12vol%流量補正係数=0.55)
・成分3:23vol%(流量補正係数=0.3
・窒素:58vol%(流量補正係数=1.0)
である試料ガスの流量12L/minを供給しつつ、流量50L/minの希釈ガス(窒素)で希釈し、希釈後の試料ガスをガス分析計に導入して成分濃度を測定する場合を考える。
Next, a computer simulation was performed to examine the process in which the concentration of the pre-dilution component of the sample gas gradually converged to the correct value by the above iterative calculation.
Now the composition is
-Component 1: 7 vol% (flow rate correction coefficient = 0.8)
-Component 2: 12 vol% flow rate correction coefficient = 0.55)
-Component 3: 23 vol% (flow rate correction coefficient = 0.3 )
-Nitrogen: 58 vol% (flow rate correction coefficient = 1.0)
Consider a case where the sample gas is supplied with a flow rate of 12 L / min, diluted with a dilution gas (nitrogen) at a flow rate of 50 L / min, and the diluted sample gas is introduced into a gas analyzer to measure the component concentration.

この場合、試料ガスの希釈後の成分濃度は、それぞれ、
・成分1:1.355vol%
・成分2:2.323vol%
・成分3:4.452vol%
となり、この試料ガスの合成流量補正係数は、上記(2)式に従って、0.605と計算される。
In this case, the component concentrations after dilution of the sample gas are respectively
・ Ingredient 1: 1.355 vol%
-Component 2: 2.323 vol%
Ingredient 3: 4.452 vol%
Thus, the synthesis flow rate correction coefficient of this sample gas is calculated as 0.605 according to the above equation (2).

一方、この試料ガスの質量流量を、窒素を基準に校正された質量流量計(質量流量計の固有の流量補正係数=1.0)を用いて測定したとすれば、質量流量計の流量表示値は、19.82L/minとなる。
そして、この流量表示値(19.82L/min)と、上で計算された希釈後の成分濃度とから、試料ガスの希釈前の成分濃度が、上記(5)式に従って、
・成分1:4.771vol%
・成分2:8.179vol%
・成分3:15.677vol%
と計算され、前提とされた成分濃度から誤差を生じている。
On the other hand, if the mass flow rate of the sample gas is measured using a mass flow meter calibrated with reference to nitrogen (specific flow correction coefficient of the mass flow meter = 1.0), the flow rate of the mass flow meter is displayed. The value is 19.82 L / min.
Then, from this flow rate display value (19.82 L / min) and the component concentration after dilution calculated above, the component concentration before dilution of the sample gas is determined according to the above equation (5).
Ingredient 1: 4.771 vol%
Ingredient 2: 8.179 vol%
Ingredient 3: 15.677 vol%
An error is generated from the assumed component concentration.

そこで、この試料ガスの成分濃度、および質量流量計の流量表示値19.82L/minから出発して、上記ステップS1〜S9を順次実行すれば、次の表1に示すような結果が得られた。表1から、5回の反復計算により、算出された成分濃度の値が、前提とされた成分濃度に対して0.1%の誤差範囲内に収れんしていることがわかる。   Therefore, starting from the sample gas component concentration and the mass flow meter's flow rate display value of 19.82 L / min, the above-described steps S1 to S9 can be executed sequentially to obtain the results shown in Table 1 below. It was. From Table 1, it can be seen that the calculated component concentration value is within an error range of 0.1% with respect to the assumed component concentration by five iterations.
