US 2010/0161249 A1 · METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TRANSFERRING A LIQUID HAVING A GAS INCLUSION AT LEAST AT TIMES AND FOR DETERMINING THE AMOUNT OF LIQUID TRANSFERRED

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for transferring a liquid having a gas inclusion at least at times and for determining the amount of liquid transferred, in which the liquid is conveyed through a line, a degree of filling measurement is carried out in the line, a flow measurement is carried out in the line and a calculation, in particular multiplication, is performed on the result of the degree of filling measurement and the result of the flow measurement, whereby a conveyed amount value is obtained. It is thereby provided that the conveyed amount value, which is obtained by performing a calculation on the result of the degree of filling measurement and the result of the flow measurement, is corrected with a value which takes into consideration a dissolution of the gas inclusion in the liquid, whereby a corrected conveyed amount value is obtained, and the corrected conveyed amount value is used as a measure for the liquid amount transferred. The invention further relates to a device for transferring a liquid and for determining the amount of liquid transferred, whereby said device can be designed in particular to implement the method according to the invention.

Dependent claims

A method for transferring a liquid having a gas inclusion at least at times, in particular fuel, and for determining the amount of liquid transferred, in which

the liquid is conveyed through a line,
a degree of filling measurement is carried out in the line,
a flow measurement is carried out in the line, and
the result of the degree of filling measurement is entered into a calculation, particularly multiplication, with the result of the flow measurement, whereby a conveyed amount value is obtained,
wherein the conveyed amount value, which is obtained by performing a calculation on the result of the degree of filling measurement and the result of the flow measurement, is corrected with a value which takes into consideration a dissolution of the gas inclusion in the liquid, whereby a corrected conveyed amount value is obtained, and
the corrected conveyed amount value is used as a measure for the amount of liquid transferred.

A device for transferring a liquid having a gas inclusion at least at times, in particular fuel, and for determining the amount of liquid transferred, in particular for implementing the method according to one of the preceding claims, with

a line for conveying the liquid,
a degree of filling measuring unit arranged on the line,
a flow measuring unit arranged on the line,
a pressure measuring unit arranged on the line, and
a computing unit which is in signal connection with the degree of filling measuring unit and the flow measuring unit and which is adapted to perform a calculation on measurement results of the degree of filling measuring unit and measurement results of the flow measuring unit, whereby a conveyed amount value is obtained,
wherein the computing unit is adapted so that the conveyed amount value, which is obtained by the performance of a calculation on the measurement results of the degree of filling measuring unit and the measurement results of the flow measuring unit, is corrected with a value, in particular a pressure-dependent value, which takes into account a dissolution of the gas inclusion in the liquid, whereby a corrected conveyed amount value is obtained, and
the computing unit is adapted so that the corrected conveyed amount value is output as a measure for the liquid amount transferred.
