Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for checking a gas mixture sensor and ionization sensor with regard to their error-free function in a fuel gas-operated heater.
  • the state of the art is also combustion control according to the so-called SCOT method, in which the amount of air supplied to the burner of the heater is controlled in accordance with the burner output.
  • a flame signal measurement is carried out using an ionization sensor and the gas-air mixture is regulated to a target ionization measurement value stored in a characteristic curve.
  • the disadvantage of the SCOT process is that at low burner outputs the flame signal drops sharply and the control therefore becomes unreliable.
  • the applicant is also responsible for a method for controlling a gas mixture formed from a gas and a fuel gas in a fuel gas-operated heater, in which the gas mixture is generated by providing and mixing a quantity of gas via a first actuator and a quantity of fuel gas via a second actuator.
  • a microthermal gas mixture sensor which detects at least one material property of the gas mixture, is exposed to the gas mixture and continuously transmits a sensor signal that is dependent on the respective gas mixture to a control unit.
  • the control device compares the detected sensor signal with a target value of the sensor signal and controls at least one of the first and second actuators if the detected sensor signal deviates from the target value of the sensor signal.
  • the gas mixture is adjusted by increasing or reducing the amount of gas and/or increasing or decreasing the amount of fuel gas until the setpoint of the sensor signal is reached.
  • the material property of the gas mixture detected by the microthermal gas mixture sensor is preferably the thermal conductivity, the thermal conductivity or the speed of sound of the gas mixture. However, several of these material properties can also be recorded, so that a more precise assignment of the majority of the properties to the gas mixture is possible.
  • the microthermal gas mixture sensor is designed as a gas mass sensor, which detects both the gas mixture mass supplied to the burner of the heater and other material physical properties.
  • calorimetric microsensors known from the prior art are used for this purpose, which, in addition to the thermal conductivity, also measure the thermal conductivity of the gas mixture.
  • Another possibility is at least one gas mass sensor based on the functional principle of ultrasonic measurement to determine the gas mixture mass and the specific speed of sound that is present depending on the gas mixture.
  • the setpoint of the sensor signal is also adjusted by the control unit depending on a composition of the gas or the fuel gas. If the composition of the fuel gas changes (e.g. from propane to butane), the measured properties of the gas mixture change. In addition, other compositions of fuel gas also require different amounts of air for optimal combustion. A new mixing ratio between gas and fuel gas is therefore also required.
  • control unit changes the first actuator of the gas quantity or the second actuator of the fuel gas quantity until the desired result is achieved.
  • the original setpoint is replaced by the new measured sensor signal for further mixture control.
  • the calibration process is carried out by controlling the ionization current of a flame signal from a burner of the heater until an ionization setpoint is reached.
  • stoichiometric combustion of the burner of the heater is first set.
  • the flame signal from the burner of the heater and thus a corresponding ionization current are detected via an ionization probe.
  • the ionization current is maximum.
  • an ionization setpoint is calculated using a laboratory-determined percentage and stored as a future ionization current setpoint that must be achieved during the desired combustion. Subsequently, only the amount of gas is reduced by a predetermined factor in order to operate the burner with the desired gas mixture at the predetermined ionization setpoint.
  • the at least one material property becomes of the gas mixture is measured using the gas mixture sensor and stored as a new setpoint of the sensor signal in the control unit.
  • the new setpoint is used for further control and replaces the previous setpoint.
  • the gas is preferably air
  • the fuel gas is preferably liquid gas or natural gas.
  • the object of the present invention is to check the measured sensor values of the gas mixture sensor and the ionization sensor for plausibility, i.e. with regard to their error-free function, in order to be able to detect errors in the control process.
  • a method for checking a gas mixture sensor and ionization sensor with regard to their error-free function in a fuel gas-operated heater in which a gas mixture is generated by providing and mixing a quantity of gas via a first actuator and a quantity of fuel gas via a second actuator.
  • the gas mixture sensor is positioned in the gas mixture to detect a material property of the gas mixture and continuously transmits a sensor signal that is dependent on the respective gas mixture to a control device.
  • a flame signal is detected on a burner of the heater via the ionization sensor, an ionization signal is determined from this and transmitted to the control unit.
  • a corresponding ionization signal from the ionization sensor is assigned to the respective sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor.
  • the amount of gas or the amount of fuel gas is temporarily changed in a predefined manipulated variable of the first or second actuator, so that the composition of the gas mixture changes.
  • the change in the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor and the ionization signal resulting from the mixture change of the ionization sensor was measured and compared with each other. From the result of the comparison of the respective changes in the sensor values, deviations from target values can be recognized and conclusions can be drawn about a faulty function of the gas mixture sensor or the ionization sensor.
  • the amount of fuel gas is temporarily changed in a predefined manipulated variable of the first or second actuator, which can be controlled more precisely than the amount of gas, which is usually provided as air via a fan.
  • the gas mixture sensor is functioning incorrectly. If, on the other hand, when the gas mixture is changed, only the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor delivers adjusted signals as expected, without the corresponding adjustment being detectable in the ionization signal of the ionization sensor, there is a faulty function of the ionization sensor, for example the ionization electrode positioned in the burner of the heater. Depending on which of the two sensors delivers an incorrect result, the heater control process can only be carried out via the other sensor until appropriate maintenance has been carried out.
  • the absolute magnitude of the deviation of the ionization signal of the ionization sensor or the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor can also be detected and compared with variables determined or precalculated in the laboratory in order to determine a degree of deviation of the signals from a target value.
  • the method according to the invention is preferably used continuously during mixture control and the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor is regularly compared or checked for plausibility with the ionization signal of the ionization sensor.
  • a further development of the method provides that, in order to check the gas mixture sensor and the ionization sensor, the amount of gas or the amount of fuel gas is changed cyclically in several steps in predefined manipulated variables of the first or second actuator and the resulting change in the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor and the ionization signal of the ionization sensor in several of the operating points resulting from the steps are measured and compared with each other.
  • the calibration process described above by the ionization current control is used in an advantageous embodiment of the method to determine a preliminary assignment of several signal values of the gas mixture sensor and ionization sensor in the different operating points.
  • the calibration process is preferably carried out repeatedly, so that sensor signals of the gas mixture sensor corresponding to several different ionization signals are assigned.
  • the connection between the ionization signal and the sensor signal at the various operating points results in a target characteristic curve in an ionization signal-sensor signal diagram, which is stored in the control unit.
  • At least one tolerance corridor is preferably provided around the target characteristic curve, which characterizes operation outside the normal, so that if the characteristic curve deviates too much from the target characteristic curve, either the mixture control can be calibrated or the heater can even be switched off if necessary.
  • a further development of the method is characterized in that an additional gas sensor and/or a fuel gas sensor for detecting at least one of the material property of the gas or the fuel gas is used.
  • the material property of the gas is measured via the gas sensor and the material property of the fuel gas is measured via the fuel gas sensor, whereby it is advantageous that the respective end points are determined from the signals from the gas sensor and fuel gas sensor the sensor characteristic curve of the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor can be determined.
  • the first end point is determined by pure fuel gas, the second end point by pure gas, especially air.
  • an expected course of the sensor characteristic curve of the gas mixture sensor when changing the amount of fuel gas or gas amount for carrying out the method according to the invention can be predetermined from measurements determined in the laboratory with the comparison of the change in the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor and the ionization signal of the ionization sensor.
  • the characteristic curve and thus the operating points expected on the characteristic can be calculated in advance, so that a target sensor signal is determined for each of the operating points resulting from the steps.
  • one embodiment of the method provides that only one additional sensor, ie only the gas sensor or only the fuel gas sensor, is added. This is more cost-effective. At the same time, it offers the advantageous possibility of determining at least one end point of the sensor characteristic curve of the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor, from which the step-by-step change, for example in the amount of fuel gas, can be predicted more precisely. In addition, taking into account the end point of the sensor characteristic curve, just one step of changing, for example, the amount of fuel gas can be sufficient to detect the deviations in the sensor signal of the gas mixture sensor.
  • the gas mixture sensor, the gas sensor and/or the fuel gas sensor are provided redundantly.
  • Each of the redundantly provided gas mixture sensors, gas sensors and/or fuel gas sensors conveniently supplies its own signal to the control unit, which is checked for plausibility and therefore the sensors are checked for error-free function.
