Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without any inventive step based on the embodiments of the present invention, are within the scope of the present invention.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the fatigue life of the bearing steel is predicted according to the uniformity of the bearing steel by adopting a mode of representing the distribution uniformity of the inclusion of the high-quality bearing steel. Furthermore, the uniformity of the inclusions in the bearing steel with the same steel grade is compared, and the performance of the bearing steel with different heats in the aspect of fatigue life can be predicted.
As shown in fig. 1, a method for predicting fatigue life of bearing steel according to an embodiment of the present invention mainly includes:
and S101, obtaining at least one group of metallographic samples from the end face of the bearing steel, and grinding and polishing the metallographic surface of the metallographic samples.
When sampling from the bearing steel, samples (i.e., metallographic samples) are taken from the end face of the bearing steel, and one or more sets of metallographic samples can be taken for each bearing steel.
In a preferred embodiment, the metallographic sample is a cube. In the embodiment of the invention, the surface of the end face of the bearing steel on the metallographic sample is called a metallographic surface. Before the metallographic sample is detected, the metallographic surface needs to be polished.
In the embodiment of the present invention, step S101 may be implemented by: sampling the end face center of the bearing steel to obtain at least one group of metallographic samples; coarse grinding the metallographic surface by using 180-mesh abrasive paper, and fine grinding the metallographic surface by sequentially using 300-mesh, 600-mesh, 1000-mesh, 1500-mesh and 2000-mesh abrasive paper; polishing the metallographic surface without a polishing agent; washing and lightly polishing the metallographic sample by using deionized water; and (3) drying the metallographic sample by using a blower, and covering the metallographic surface with a cleaning adhesive tape.
For polishing the gold phase surface, firstly, 180-mesh abrasive paper is used for rough grinding, the surface is polished to ensure the smoothness of the gold phase surface, then 300-mesh, 600-mesh, 1000-mesh, 1500-mesh and 2000-mesh abrasive paper is used for fine grinding in sequence, and the last scratch is guaranteed to be polished off in the fine grinding process.
For polishing of the gold phase surface, polishing without a polishing agent was used in order to prevent the polishing agent from affecting the detection result. Polishing without polishing agent means: polishing the metallographic surface without using a polishing agent; or, a polishing agent is used for rough polishing, and finally, a piece of polishing cloth needs to be replaced to finely polish the metallographic surface.
It should be noted that the time of each stage of polishing is not too long.
And (4) washing the polished metallographic sample by using deionized water, and quickly performing light polishing on a polishing machine replaced with clean polishing cloth. The light sample of weathering with the hair-dryer after polishing is accomplished, and the purpose is got rid of the water stain of gluing on the metallography, prevents that the metallographic surface from oxidizing, influences the testing result. And finally, covering the metallographic surface with a clean adhesive tape to protect the metallographic surface.
And S102, placing the metallographic samples in a full-automatic inclusion analyzer for inclusion detection to obtain detection result data of each group of metallographic samples.
The detection result data of the embodiment of the invention may include the number of inclusions and coordinate information of each inclusion. The full-automatic inclusion Analyzer (ASPEX) is a product of a scanning electron microscope-energy spectrometer system and is also a steel inclusion analyzer with the highest analysis speed.
In the embodiment of the present invention, before step S102, the following steps may be implemented: setting the detection area and the size range of the inclusions.
The detection area may be set according to actual conditions. The size range of inclusions means the size of inclusions to be detected, and the size range of inclusions can be determined according to the steel grade.
In the embodiment of the present invention, step S102 may be implemented by: respectively placing each group of metallographic samples in a full-automatic inclusion analyzer, tearing off a cleaning adhesive tape, blowing and wiping a metallographic surface by using compressed air, and closing a cabin door of the full-automatic inclusion analyzer; based on the detection area and the size range of the inclusions, the full-automatic inclusion analyzer detects the inclusions in each group of metallographic samples and generates detection result data of each group of metallographic samples.
And (3) after the metallographic samples are processed, carrying out inclusion detection on the metallographic samples by using ASPEX, thereby obtaining the number of inclusions in each group of metallographic samples and the coordinate information of each inclusion.
And S103, calculating the average inclusion distance of each group of metallographic samples based on the coordinate information.
According to the coordinate information of all inclusions in the detection result data, the average value of the distance between any two inclusions in each group of metallographic samples, namely the average inclusion distance, can be calculated. The coordinate information of the embodiment of the present invention may include an abscissa positive value and an ordinate positive value, wherein the abscissa positive value (X _ ABS) represents a coordinate value of the abscissa axis, the ordinate positive value (Y _ ABS) represents a coordinate value of the ordinate axis, and X _ ABS and Y _ ABS are positive values.
In the embodiment of the present invention, step S103 may be implemented by: reading all coordinate information from the detection result data; writing the coordinate information of all inclusions of each group of metallographic samples into the same data table; reading coordinate information in the data table by using a Python program, respectively calculating straight line distances between each inclusion and all adjacent inclusions, and selecting the minimum straight line distance from the straight line distances as an individual distance between the inclusion and the nearest inclusion; and calculating the average inclusion distance of each group of metallographic samples according to the individual distance.
For the average inclusion distance of each group of metallographic samples, Python (computer programming language) can be used for writing a program for calculation, namely, coordinate information of all inclusions of each group of metallographic samples is written into a data table; reading the coordinate information of each inclusion from the data table by using a Python program, and calculating the individual distance between each inclusion and the nearest inclusion; the average inclusion spacing of each group of metallographic samples can be calculated according to the individual distances. It should be noted that only coordinate information of all inclusions of a set of metallographic samples is recorded in each data table. The nearest inclusion is an inclusion closest to the currently calculated inclusion, that is, the nearest inclusion is relative to an inclusion.
In practical applications, when calculating the individual distance between an inclusion and the nearest inclusion, the linear distances between the inclusion and all the inclusions adjacent to the inclusion are calculated, and then the minimum value (i.e. the minimum linear distance) is selected from the linear distances, where the minimum value is the individual distance between the inclusion and the nearest inclusion, and the inclusion corresponding to the minimum value is the nearest inclusion of the inclusion.
As a preferred embodiment, the code of the Python program includes:
# load library
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
# read data
df = pd.read _ excel (r 'C: \ Users \ cff \ Desktop \ coordinate. xlsx')
X = df['x'].values
Y = df['y'].values
# minimization
MINDIS = []
for i in range(len(df)):
Dis = []
for j in range(len(df)):
if j != i:
dis = np.sqrt((X[i]-X[j])**2 + (Y[i]-Y[j])**2)
Dis.append(round(dis,5))
mindis = min(Dis)
MINDIS.append(mindis)
# collation, output
df['mindis'] = MINDIS
To _ excel ('derived result. xlsx', index = None)
And step S104, calculating the uniformity of the bearing steel according to the average inclusion distance and the ideal inclusion distance.
Wherein the uniformity is related to the fatigue life, so the uniformity can be used to predict the fatigue life of the bearing steel, and the closer the value of the uniformity is to 1, the longer the fatigue life of the bearing steel.
In the embodiment of the present invention, step S104 may be implemented by: calculating the ideal inclusion distance by using an ideal distance formula; calculating the uniformity of the bearing steel according to a uniformity formula; the length of the fatigue life of the bearing steel is predicted based on the uniformity.
Wherein the ideal spacing formula is

The uniformity formula is

It should be noted that the fatigue life predicted by the embodiment of the present invention is not a quantification of the bearing steel life, but a rough estimation of the fatigue life of the bearing steel, and the fatigue life grade can be classified based on the uniformity in the application. In addition to predicting the fatigue life of the bearing steel, the embodiments of the present invention may also comparatively analyze the fatigue life performance of different bearing steels, for example, calculate the uniformity of two bearing steels, and analyze the fatigue life performance of the two bearing steels based on the uniformity of the two bearing steels.
