It is intended to operate in the range from -50 ℃to 0 ℃. The air flows through a saturator controlled by a regulated flow meter. The reference dew/frost -point temperature was measured by standard platinum resistance thermometer (SPRT) connected to a resistance bridge. A comparative study between the saturator temperature of the new generator measured by SPRT and the dew/frost-point temperature of a calibrated chilled-mirror hygrometer was conducted. It helped to determine the uncertainty of saturator; this uncertainty was found to be between ±0.06℃ to -4- 0.15℃ at confidence limit of 95%.Several experiments were carried out in the mentioned range. Obtained results gave the confidence that NIS generator could be used as a primary humid air generator.展开更多

Adew point condensation image observation system was built to improve the responsespeed of dew point detector under different measuring conditions. The basic mechanismof dew drop condensation growth was studied and the influence of various factors on thedew drop growth rate were analyzed. And the accuracy of the influence results wasverified based on the improved Hough transform circle detection. The results show thatthe growth rate of dew droplets is affected by ambient temperature, dew pointtemperature, mirror temperature and air velocity. The observed variation of the averageradius of dew droplets is consistent with the theoretical calculations. The maximumradius error is less than 4 μm, the initial error is larger, and the error oscillates in themiddle and late stages of condensation. The establishment of condensation mechanism ishelpful to solve the problem in fast determination of dew point temperature under thecold start of dew point meter, and to improve the response speed.展开更多
