The Research on Red Light Ranging Float Pneumoelectric Conversion Technology

This document explains how to transform an ordinary float-type pneumatic measuring instrument by adding a right lights sensor on it. Then we design a suitable float for it through the theoretical calculation and the simulation with Fluent. At last, the research do a series of experiments and by the experiments, its nonlinear error is less than the ordinary float-type pneumatic measuring instrument. So the whole instrument is feasible. The final purpose of designing the float-type pneumatic measuring instrument based on the red lights sensor is to measure the overlap of the valve core & sleeve of the slide valve.
