Description

Non-contact metal material conductivity measurement method and system
Technical Field
The disclosure relates to the technical field of conductivity measurement methods, and in particular relates to a non-contact metal conductivity measurement method and system.
Background
Most of the traditional metal conductivity measurement adopts a method of applying current signals at two ends of a conductor, measuring voltage signals at the two ends and calculating conductor resistance by using ohm's law. Since the resistance is related to the length and cross-sectional area of the conductor in addition to the material conductivity, the conductivity of the conductor needs to be calculated based on the size of the conductor and the boundary conditions of the applied current signal. The disadvantage of this calculation and measurement method is that it depends on the dimensions of the conductor and that it is necessary to pass a current signal through the conductor, which is a contact measurement. The measurement accuracy of the method is greatly influenced by the electrode contact mode and the magnitude of the conductivity of the conductor, and particularly under the condition that the conductivity of the measured conductor is very high, the voltage signals generated by the applied current signals at two ends of the conductor are very weak, so that the measurement error is large.
The eddy current detection is a nondestructive detection technology based on the electromagnetic induction principle, and compared with the traditional metal conductivity measurement method analyzed in the prior art, although the current application mode is different between the eddy current detection and the metal conductivity measurement method, the detection of the eddy current in the conductor is also influenced by factors such as the electrode contact mode, and the detection process is extremely inconvenient and still belongs to contact measurement. The method has the biggest defects of complex circuit, multiple interference factors of measurement results, easy parameter drift, frequent calibration and incapability of realizing automatic and continuous measurement of the conductivity. Meanwhile, the coil is used as an intermediate physical link to convert the magnetic field signal affected by the eddy current into a voltage signal, namely the voltage signal contains other non-useful signals except the conductivity of the measured material. This entails a lot of unnecessary disturbances and is influenced by the frequency and magnitude of the excitation current. Therefore, the accurate non-contact measurement of the conductivity of the metal material can be really realized only by completely removing the constraint of the detection coil. On the other hand, if the relationship between the eddy magnetic field and the metal conductivity is established, and the relationship is established by an experimental method, a very large sample database must be established, and the requirements on an experimental device are very high. If the accurate mathematical relation expression of the electromagnetic principle equation and the electromagnetic principle equation is established, very complicated mathematical derivation and calculation are involved.

Example 1:
referring to the specification and the accompanying fig. 1, a non-contact type metallic material conductivity measurement method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, which may include the following steps:
s101: measuring eddy magnetic field delta B corresponding to tested metal piece0(z) whereinThe measuring system is of an axisymmetric structure and comprises an excitation probe and a tested metal piece;
s102: establishing a relational expression of the eddy magnetic field and the conductivity of the tested metal piece;
s103: and acquiring the conductivity of the tested metal piece according to the relation between the eddy magnetic field and the conductivity of the tested metal piece measured by the measuring system.

In an alternative embodiment, the corresponding measuring probe is placed separately in the spatial region and ensures that there is no metallic material around, when the output value of the magnetic field sensor, i.e. the source field B0(z)。
S302: in the measuring process, a measuring probe is placed on the surface of a tested metal piece, and the output value of the magnetic field sensor at the moment is recorded;
in particular, in practical measurements, the magnetic field sensor obtains a spatial magnetic induction value, i.e. the source field B0(z) and eddy magnetic field Δ B0(z) when the magnetic field sensor output is the sum of the source field and the eddy current magnetic field, B (z).
From this, the previously obtained source field B is subtracted from the measurement record B (z)0(z) an eddy magnetic field DeltaB corresponding to the metal material can be obtained0(z)。
In an alternative embodiment, the source field B0(z) in addition to being influenced by the excitation coil parameters, the source field values at different locations are different. Thus, assuming that the magnetic field measurement position is unchanged, i.e. the magnetic field sensor is fixed at a relatively unchanged position of the excitation coil, the source field B is for the same type of excitation probe0(z) is unchanged. And for axial eddy magnetic field Δ B0(z), in addition to being influenced by spatial position, is also related to the metal conductivity of the metallic article being tested.

y=-0.01375098369612x2+0.24014968145481x+0.11463161109536
wherein y in the expression represents the strength value of the axial eddy magnetic field and has the unit of 10-3T, x is the conductivity value of the tested metal piece and has the unit of 107S/m;
And by adopting a polynomial root function roots, the conductivity of the tested metal piece can be obtained according to the measured eddy magnetic field.

Therefore, the magnetic vector potential a obtained by the formula (1-2) is expressed as the series and form of the feature function.
In an alternative embodiment, the air space used between the exciting coil and the metal piece to be tested is the function Y1Diverge, thus Bi0. Considering that the electrical conductivity of the air domain is 0, the magnetic vector potential (k ═ 0) in this domain has the following form:

Specifically, according to the mathematical expression of the acquired metal conductivity and the axial eddy current field, the numerical value of the axial eddy current field under typical common metal conditions is solved through calculation, and since the eddy current field obtained through solving is in a complex form, modulo operation needs to be performed.

Based on the numerical values obtained by the calculation, a least square fitting is utilized to obtain a relation curve of the axial eddy current magnetic field and the conductivity, as shown in a graph 6 in the attached drawing of the specification, the abscissa of the graph 6 is the conductivity of the metal material and has a unit of 107S/m, and the ordinate is the axial eddy current magnetic field value and has a unit of 10-3T.
Through curve fitting, the following relational expression of the axial eddy magnetic field and the conductivity is established:
y=-0.01375098369612x2+0.24014968145481x+0.11463161109536
in the expression, y represents the strength value of the axial eddy magnetic field and has the unit of 10-3T, x is the conductivity value of the metal piece to be tested and has the unit of 107S/m。
In an optional embodiment, a polynomial root function roots in Matlab software is adopted, and the conductivity value of the tested metal piece can be obtained according to the measured eddy current magnetic field. Because of the quadratic polynomial fitting, the roots function usually has two roots, and a smaller value is generally taken as the conductivity value of the tested metal piece.
By way of example, the accuracy of the conductivity obtained by the above measurement method was verified using metallic chromium as an example. The conductivity of metallic chromium is 3.8X 107S/m, where the calculated value of the formula (1-11) is used as the actually measured eddy magnetic field value, moduloHas a size of 0.82921410671475 × 10-3And T. According to the eddy magnetic field value, combining the established relation expression of the axial eddy magnetic field and the conductivity and the root function, calculating to obtain the material conductivity corresponding to the time being 13.65991957035989 multiplied by 107S/m and 3.80426239376905X 107And (5) S/m. Taking a small rule according to the equation root, the material conductivity should be 3.80426239376905 × 107And (5) S/m. Therefore, the metal conductivity error obtained by the method is 0.11%, and the method completely meets the requirement of measurement accuracy.
In an alternative embodiment, a temperature sensor is arranged in the test system for compensating the effect of temperature on the conductivity of the material. Since the metal conductivity is significantly affected by the temperature, and the material conductivity is usually measured at a temperature of 20 ℃, a temperature sensor needs to be arranged in the measuring system to compensate the effect of the temperature on the material conductivity if the conductivity of the tested metal piece is to be accurately evaluated.
The invention can also be applied to the occasion that the material of the metal is judged, the conductivity is an inherent attribute of the metal, and the material of the tested metal piece can be determined by a method of a lookup table according to the measured conductivity value. Of course, the conductivity of a certain metal material should be in a range and not be considered to be a fixed value. Therefore, the range of conductivity for each metal material should be predetermined.
In this embodiment, the eddy magnetic field Δ B corresponding to the tested metal piece is measured0(z) and establishing a relation between the eddy magnetic field and the conductivity of the metal piece to be tested to obtain the conductivity, and finding out from the acquisition process of the conductivity that the invention also has the advantages that equivalent comparison is not needed, and the difference between the metal piece to be tested and the standard block is identified to realize measurement. Therefore, the method is a more convenient and non-contact direct measurement method.
