Abstract

PURPOSE:To always maintain a mixing ratio of hydraulic gas properly by measuring the wavelength characteristic of absorption scattering by means of radiation of laser beam to the operation gas, and mixing lacking gas until both wavelength characteristics coincide with each other as the result of comparing it with the wavelength characteristic in the case when the plural kinds of gas are mixed together to create mixed the operation gas. CONSTITUTION:Respective gases from a helium gas cylinder 8a, a xenon gas cylinder 8b are mixed together in a mixing container 9 to be used as operation gas of a sealed cycle composed of a solar beat receiving part 1, a turbine 2, a recovered heat exchanger 3, a cooling device 4, a compression device 5, a gear box 6, and a generator 7. In this case, a laser oscillator 12 and a light receiving part 13 are set in the outlet of the compressor 5 where pressure of the operation gas becomes maximum. Bright lines generated when laser beam is radiated in the mixing gas is divided in a plural number of frequency bands by means of a diffraction, and the pattern of signal intensity in each frequency band is compared with pattern information of a proper mixing ratio stored in a memory 15, so as to calculate a valve opening and a timing in a signal calculation unit 14. Thereafter, operation gas supply valves 10a, 10b are opened by means of the valve control unit 16 so as to supplement helium or xenon.

As a working gas for the cycle, helium has large specific heat and specific enthalpy, and if there is a sufficient heating source, it is a gas that can easily extract work through a turbine. However, because the molecular weight is small, it does not put a load on the compressor and the cycle cannot be completed. Therefore, this helium is mixed with xenon, which has a large molecular weight, and a compressor performs sufficient compression to form a cycle. The fact that both helium and xenon are inert gases that are difficult to react with is also an important factor as working gases for closed cycles.

As mentioned above, since helium and xenon each have different properties, their properties as a mixed gas are affected by the mixing ratio. If there is a large amount of helium, it will be thermally advantageous, but it will not be able to be compressed completely, and conversely, the amount of work that can be extracted will decrease. Therefore, in order to obtain a constant output or control the output, it is essential to control the mixing ratio.

In this embodiment, laser light is used to measure the mixing ratio of working gases. Generally, when light hits a substance, some of it is transmitted, and the rest is absorbed or scattered. Light absorption and scattering are phenomena that occur due to the interaction between light and substances, and by measuring the wavelength characteristics of the intensity of light absorption and scattering, the properties of the irradiated substance can be determined. As a bright line light source for measuring the wavelength characteristics, ■ Strong directivity allows measurements even in places where the interior is hard to reach.

The emission line caused by the laser beam appears more clearly as the pressure increases, so in this example, we take advantage of this fact and place the laser oscillator a and the light receiving part ( Diffraction grating, light receiving sensor, etc.) θJ is installed.

Compare it with the pattern information of the appropriate mixture ratio that you have prepared, and set the valve opening degree and timing as a signal/Ji.
