Detailed description of the invention
The invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and by specific embodiment, and following example are illustrative, no It is determinate, it is impossible to limit protection scope of the present invention with this.
A kind of rapid batch electric energy meter starting test device pulse alignment control module, during this control module chopped pulse separation standard Between TQTheory diagram as it is shown in figure 1,
The outfan of alternating current power supply connects power-supply controller of electric, and the outfan that power supply controls connects tested electric energy meter and supplies to tested electric energy meter Electricity, tested electric energy meter connects a pulse signal capture module, and the output of this pulse signal capture module/output port connects central authorities Controller, flows to central controller by the pulse signal captured, and, central controller sends signal control wave The work of capture module;
One outfan of central controller connects power-supply controller of electric, the work of regulation and control power-supply controller of electric;
Tested electric energy meter is also simultaneously connected with voltage sample module and current sample module, current sample module and voltage sample module Outfan be all connected to one and take advantage of the input with circuit to be transferred to take advantage of and circuit by current sample result and voltage sample result, should Taking advantage of the outfan with circuit to connect the input of reference circuit, the outfan of reference circuit connects central controller;
One output/output port of central controller connects high-speed, high precision timer, carries out data interchange;
One input connection standard source table of central controller.
Electric energy meter starting test calibrating time testing program in batches:
Being drawn by vertification regulation, the former starting time need to be about 10.9min, is designated as TQ, logical 0.005I under 220V voltageb(about For 0.025A) second pulse detected at the appointed time, then ammeter is qualified.The meter constant C of ammeter is 1200imp/KW h, the electric energy consumed between i.e. two adjacent pulses is Δ E=1/1200KW h (3000J).Due to electric current The least, the time of second pulse appearance is longer, causes detection efficiency the highest.
Imagination uses larger current by forward part energy, reaches target power consumption (1500J, 2100J, 2400J, 2700J) Afterwards, then switch to primary current (IQ=0.005Ib), to reach the purpose of minimizing time.
In theory, the method is feasible, according to previous verifying process flow, it would be desirable to calibrating 3000J energy, after improvement Only needing to detect (1500J, 900J, 600J, 300J) energy, under equal-wattage, the calibrating time is greatly shortened, and without prejudice to The theoretical basis of experiment, but simultaneously the most also need amendment calibrating article, i.e. amendment test experiments fiducial time.
Such as can make E=0.9E, E=0.1E, Im=0.1Ib
Then can pass through E1=U Im·T1, E=E1+E2=U Im·T1+U·IQ·T2And TP=T1+T2,
Calculate to obtain T1≈0.45*T2,Tp≈1.45*T2<<Tq≈10*T2
The time occurred due to first pulse of tested table has randomness, when same batch tested table quantity is more than 30, waits The time Tw probability more than 0.9Tstart is up to 0.96.T1 < TW can be realized.
By installing enumerator on standard scale, obtain the umber of pulse about Ks1 that standard scale is exported in electric energy E1 value.By making By larger current by forward part energy, when pulse approximate number Ks1 remembered by enumerator, it is achieved time timing target, switch tested Table passes through electric current IQ=0.005Ib, reaches to count purpose.Thus reach to realize reduction batch electric energy meter starting test calibrating time Tq Target with calibrating waiting time Tw.And then reach the purpose of reduction batch electric energy meter starting test calibrating time..
Concretely comprise the following steps:
(1) by installing enumerator on standard scale;
(2) the calibrating of batch electric energy meter starting test, calculates under certain value voltage U, uses larger current Im to pass through time T1, When reaching target power consumption E1, obtain the umber of pulse about Ks1 that standard scale is exported in electric energy E1 value;
(3) batch electric energy meter false actuation test calibrating, under certain value voltage U, uses larger current Im by tested table and standard scale;
(4) batch Basic Error of Energy Meter test calibrating, when rolling counters forward arrives umber of pulse Ks1, under certain value voltage U, Switch to test standard electric current IQ, until tested table sends pulse;
(5) calibrating terminates: carry out verification result judgement, it is judged that for "Yes" then off-test;Judged result is that "No" is then tested Do not terminate, then repeat step (1) to step (4) until calibrating terminate.
Ultimate principle
The accuracy test of electric energy meter generally uses relative method to carry out the accuracy test of electric energy meter, i.e. by power source to standard scale and Tested table conveying equal-wattage, is received the output pulse of standard scale and tested table by Error Calculator and calculates the relative mistake of tested table Difference.Standard scale and tested table the most nominally meter constant (umber of pulse often exported by 1kWh electric energy), think mark during measurement The meter constant K of quasi-tablesIt is actual value, and the meter constant K of tested tablemIt it is nominal value.KsMuch larger than Km.Same type electricity Can table KmOf substantially equal, therefore the biggest pulse frequency of bearing power is the highest, and interpulse period is the least.
The time occurred due to first pulse of tested table has randomness, and when same batch tested table quantity is more than 30, note waits Time is Tw.Then theory analysis shows, TwProbability more than 0.9 is up to 0.96.The most general Tw> 0.9.
The electric energy consumed between two adjacent pulses of tested table is a definite value, is designated as E.Imagination, under certain value voltage U, uses Larger current ImBy time T1, reach target power consumption E1;Afterwards under fixed value voltage U, switch to test standard electricity Stream IQ, by time T2, reach remainder power consumption E2.And remember under fixed value voltage U, reach electric energy E value, institute Need to be T by the standard time in pulse spacingQ
Then there is E=E1+E2=U Im·T1+U·IQ·T2, TP=T1+T2
Wherein, E1And ImIt is independent variable, T can be obtained by the two value1, E2And IQIt is independent variable, can by the two value Obtain T2.And then available interpulse period.Work as Im> IQTime, then there is TP< TQ, thus reach to reduce pulse spacing standard Time TQTarget.And then by controlling IQValue, can realize T1< TW
Such as make Im=20IQ, E1=0.9E, E2=0.1E.
Then can pass through E1=U Im·T1, E=E1+E2=U Im·T1+U·IQ·T2And TP=T1+T2,
Calculate to obtain T1≈0.45·T2, ≈ 1.45*T2<<TQ≈10*T2,T1< TW
Due to KsMuch larger than Km, then the pulse spacing of standard scale is understood much smaller than TQ.By installing enumerator on standard scale, Obtain the umber of pulse about K that standard scale is exported in electric energy E1 values1.By using larger current by forward part energy, work as meter Pulse approximate number K remembered by number devices1Time, switch tested table and pass through electric current, reach to count purpose.
Although disclosing embodiments of the invention and accompanying drawing for the purpose of illustration, but it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that: not Departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, various replacements, to change and modifications be all possible, therefore, and the scope of the present invention not office It is limited to embodiment and accompanying drawing disclosure of that.
