Large-scale storage tank bottom corrosion detection system and detection method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to corrode pick-up unit, particularly relate to a kind of large-scale storage tank bottom corrosion detection system and detection method thereof based on acoustic emission.
Background technology
Along with the change of China's energy structure with to the continuous increase of energy demand, oil, the ratio of rock gas in China's energy demand strengthen year by year.Not only storage tank quantity surge, and oil tank design in recent years and construction also develop towards the direction that maximizes.At present, the volume of separate unit storage tank is generally all at 5~15 ten thousand steres in the base, and 10 ten thousand stere storage tanks have become the primary structure that China's oil chemical industry crude oil storage tank is built.Storage tank maximizes and has lot of advantages, but the large-scale storage tank volume is big, distribution is concentrated, and is used for storing inflammable, explosive, poisonous medium more, in case take place to leak or explosion accident, tend to cause catastrophic consequence and serious environmental to pollute, bring massive losses and harm to society.
The storage tank accident is mainly by bottom corrosion with leak and to cause, because the seriousness of its destruction, countries in the world all must be regularly detected the corrosion and the leakage situation of storage tank bottom with the substantive requirements of form of law.In China, according to the requirement of " dangerous material chemical safety management rules " issued by the State Council, must carry out periodic inspection, but the at present concrete time limit and inspection rule also there is not clear and definite requirement to the Hazardous Chemical Substances storage tank; SY/T 592 standard codes, newly-built storage tank detect the availability for the first time and are not more than 10 years, and later round of visits is 5~7 years.For ensureing storage tank safety, developed multiple detection method at present storage tank bottom has been detected, jar baselap sound wave thickness measurement technology, jar end eddy detection technology, Magnetic Flux Leakage Inspecting technology and acoustic emission detection.Wherein first three plants detection technique all needs clear earlier jar, and the staff enters into jar and detects then, cost height so not only, and all can cause harmful effect to staff's physical and mental health.And acoustic emission detection is a kind of online test method, can under situation about not stopping production, assess storage tank bottom, to prolong the sense cycle of " good jar ", the environmental pollution that reduces and avoid causing because of clear jar, make the user obtain direct and potential economic benefit, also can in time find and keep in repair " bad jar " simultaneously, avoid its accidents caused loss that causes.In the acoustic emission detection process, must use Acoustic radiating instrument, present employed Acoustic radiating instrument carries out basic detection principle that bottom corrosion detects as shown in Figure 1, a plurality of calibrate AE sensors 2 are uniformly distributed in the tank skin outside surface of storage tank 1, and the signal that calibrate AE sensor 2 received is transferred to Acoustic radiating instrument 4 by lead 3 again after prime amplifier (among the figure for sensor built-in before put) amplifies.The detection method of this Acoustic radiating instrument is a kind of concentrated acquisition method, promptly on an Acoustic radiating instrument a plurality of passages is arranged, and all calibrate AE sensors all are wired to each passage.
But this Acoustic radiating instrument has following deficiency for the acoustic emission detection of large-scale storage tank: 1, some conductor length need reach rice up to a hundred, and acoustic emission signal is a kind of feeble signal, and decay easily after long Distance Transmission reduces signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio); 2, the lead of growing distance strengthens signal disturbed possibility in transmission course; 3,, in layout and recovery sensor process, bring inconvenience for the staff who implements to detect because lead is very long, and its volume and quality are all very big.4, appliance requires adopts cable power supply, in large-scale oil depot, must carry out setting up of cable in strict accordance with regulation and can use, and has reduced the efficient of detecting operation, and needs to drop into certain man power and material.
