Description

Double-frequency excitation circular eddy current probe and method for detecting thick-wall deep crack defects
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of nondestructive testing, relates to an eddy current probe for industrial detection of defects, and particularly relates to a double-frequency excitation circular eddy current probe and method for detecting thick-wall deep-crack defects.
Background
The eddy current detection is one of conventional nondestructive detection technology, and is an electromagnetic detection method for detecting defects and testing performance of materials and components according to electromagnetic performance changes of the materials based on an electromagnetic induction principle, wherein the basic principle is based on the theory of electromagnetism. The eddy current detection method has the advantages of non-contact, high detection speed and shallow crack quantification, and is an effective method for quantitatively and nondestructively evaluating structural surface and near-surface defects. The eddy current online detection technology is widely applied to manufacturing of large-scale, heavy-duty and special equipment and aerospace key parts in industry, so that the crack detection technology is important to guaranteeing equipment operation safety, assessing equipment service life, reducing equipment maintenance cost and the like.
At present, conventional eddy current detection adopts an eddy current probe with single frequency to detect defects which basically stay near the surface layer, and the identification capability of deeper defects and deep defects in equipment parts is limited because of obvious skin effect. Although the detection effect on deep cracks can be improved to a certain extent by means of measures such as optimizing the structural parameters of the probe, reducing the excitation frequency and the like, other problems exist at the same time: if low-frequency excitation is adopted, although the penetration depth of eddy current can be increased, and the capability of the probe for detecting deep defects can be improved, the problems of low probe resolution, low signal to noise ratio, low detection speed and signal amplitude, and the like caused by the speed effect of the probe and the difficulty in resolution of detection signals can be caused. Even though sensitivity can be improved by adopting a manner of an interferometer (SQUID), a giant magneto resistance sensor (GMR), a magneto-sensitive element such as a hall element, a magnetic circuit shield, and the like, the problem of too low detection speed is not solved well all the time, and thus cannot be applied to a large-area high-speed detection occasion.
Therefore, the research is suitable for the eddy current detection probe for high-speed detection of large-area thick-wall deep-crack defects, and has important significance and prospect in the aspects of ensuring the safe operation of equipment, evaluating the service life of the equipment, reducing the maintenance cost of the equipment and the like.

Further, the detection coil is completely sleeved on the detection coil mounting upright post, and the top end face of the detection coil is kept in the same plane with the top end face of the detection coil mounting upright post so as to keep the fixed relative position relation of the detection coil in the detection process.

Further, the exciting coil and the detecting coil are wound by enamelled wires.
Based on the scheme, the invention adopts another technical scheme that: the method for detecting the thick-wall deep crack defect by using the double-frequency excitation circular eddy current probe is characterized by comprising the following steps of:
s1, continuously introducing steady-state sinusoidal excitation currents with different frequencies and sizes into two groups of excitation coils through a synchronous alternating-current power supply, wherein the sinusoidal excitation currents generate a vortex field in a metal flat test piece;
s2, C scanning is carried out on the surface of the test piece by the detection probe assembly through the scanning control console, the vortex field at the defect is disturbed by the defect, and defect information is fed back to the detection coil through the disturbance magnetic field;

and S5, displaying the defect signal of the test piece on an oscilloscope in real time, finding out the defect, and calculating the actual depth of the defect through a calibration curve of a standard test piece.
Further, a gap distance s= (1.4-2) ×r between the two groups of excitation coils o ,R o Is the outer radius of the excitation coil; the gap distance between the exciting coils plays an important role in the overall size of the probe and the detection performance of the probe, directly influences the detection result of deep cracks, and can effectively improve the crack detection of the probe by keeping a proper distanceThe depth is detected. The invention preferably adopts two larger circular eddy current coils as excitation elements, one smaller circular eddy current coil is used as a detection signal acquisition element, the detection coil is positioned at the midpoint of the central connecting line of the two circular excitation coils, and the analysis test proves that the space between the two circular excitation coils is S= (1.4-2) x R o With this distance range, detection of depth defects can be achieved.
Further, in the two groups of exciting coils, the exciting coil on the higher frequency side is matched with smaller exciting current, the exciting coil on the lower frequency side is matched with larger exciting current, and the current in each exciting coil is kept to be 0.5-0.7 times of the exciting frequency fed into the exciting coil. The configuration of the probe mainly includes the configuration of the excitation current magnitude and the excitation frequency in the excitation coils, the configuration of the gap between the excitation coils, and the like. The distribution of the excitation current levels in the two excitation coils directly influences the level of the eddy current depth. The density of eddy current generated by exciting coil current on the surface of the test piece is limited by two factors, namely exciting frequency and exciting current. The eddy current density generated on the surface of the test piece by different excitation frequencies and different excitation currents is different, and the skin effect on the surface of the test piece can be effectively reduced by adjusting the excitation frequencies and the excitation current proportion at the same time to enable the excitation frequencies and the excitation current proportion to reach proper values. The high current can generate larger eddy current density, the excitation coil at the higher frequency is matched with smaller excitation current, and the excitation coil at the lower frequency is matched with larger excitation current.
The principle of the invention is as follows:
firstly, continuously introducing steady-state sinusoidal excitation currents with different frequencies and sizes into two groups of excitation coils, wherein the sinusoidal excitation currents can generate alternating magnetic fields on the surface and the inside of a test piece, alternating eddy currents can be induced in the test piece and the surface of the test piece by the changed magnetic fields, the eddy currents can be disturbed by defects in the test piece, a secondary magnetic field induced by the eddy currents and detection signals can be picked up by a circular detection line circle, and whether the current position has defects or not is judged by processing the detection signals and comparing the detection signals with detection signals of a defect-free test piece; if the defect exists, the actual depth of the defect can be deduced by continuing to pass through the calibration curve of the standard test piece.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. the invention adopts the circular eddy current coil insensitive to the direction as the excitation and detection element, and solves the problems that the eddy current generated by the rectangular excitation coil is sensitive to the crack direction and the crack defect parallel to the eddy current flow direction is not easy to detect in the actual detection process, thereby effectively avoiding the occurrence of crack omission detection.
2. The double-coil excitation probe adopts a sine double-frequency alternating current excitation mode, attenuation degrees of eddy currents generated by different frequencies in a test piece are different, and by setting proper excitation parameters, opposite eddy currents which can be mutually offset are generated at a certain point on the surface of the tested piece, so that the density of the eddy currents in the surface of the test piece is weakened, the density of the eddy currents in the deep part of the material is relatively increased, the detection signal of deep cracks is relatively increased, the signal-to-noise ratio of the detection signal is increased, the influence of the eddy current skin effect on the surface of the test piece on deep crack defect detection is effectively reduced, the penetration depth of the eddy currents and the detection capability of the probe on the deep cracks are improved, and the penetration depth of the double-frequency excitation probe can reach more than 1.6 times when single-frequency excitation is performed on the basis of the density of the surface eddy currents.
3. The gap distance S between the double excitation coils is closely related to the size of the probe and the detection performance of the probe, the gap distance S directly influences the detection result of deep cracks, and the detection depth of the probe on the cracks can be effectively improved by keeping a proper distance. Experiments show that the gap distance of the double probes is set as S= (1.4-2) x R in the invention o The depth of the detectable crack defect can reach about 21 mm.
4. The double-frequency excitation circular eddy current probe has high detection efficiency, and can avoid the problems of low resolution, reduced sensitivity, low detection speed and the like of the probe.
5. The double-frequency excitation circular eddy current probe solves the following problems in the prior art: the problem that the eddy current skin effect on the surface of the test piece influences the deep crack defect detection; the problem that the internal defect cannot be detected due to the fact that the internal detection signal of the test piece is too small; the eddy penetration depth is small, and the eddy probe has low capability of detecting deep cracks.
