Error analyses of filling control systems for liquid amount-given

It is of instructive significance to systematically analyze the factors that influence the precision of filling control systems for liquid amount-given. The sources of additional errors of volumetric flowmeter and Coriolis mass flowmeter were analyzed in the paper. The factors that influence the filling overshoot and lead to overshoot error were discussed in particular. Then the general system error was expressed and the main approaches to improving the filling precision were summarized. It is indicated that the filling precision of system is mainly decided by the precision of flowmeter and other instruments such as thermometer and manometer on condition that the valve is shut off in advance under low instantaneous flowrate. The influence of overshoot error on the filling precision of system is not remarkable.
