Description
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic detection, and mainly relates to a phased array air coupling transducer and a plane stress ultrasonic measurement method thereof.
Background
In the process of manufacturing materials, the workpiece may be unevenly deformed mechanically, by temperature change or phase change due to the influence of the processing environment, and the deformation of the materials is uneven, so that residual stress is generated. The existence of residual stress can influence the strength and other mechanical properties of the workpiece, and can cause the defects of deformation, cracking and the like of the workpiece in the use process; defects ultimately affect the condition of the workpiece, such as accuracy and service life. Therefore, providing a theoretical basis for strength analysis and processing deformation prediction, and evaluating the residual stress and state of a workpiece has become an important point of current manufacturing research.
The measurement of residual stress belongs to the field of research of inverse problems, and the magnitude and direction of the residual stress are reversed by outputting strain or equivalent displacement. Currently, measurement techniques can be divided into two categories according to the test principle. One class includes destructive testing methods, such as mechanical and chemical methods; one class includes non-destructive testing methods. The principle of the destructive testing method involves releasing and measuring the workpiece stress in some way. By measuring the strain or displacement of this region, the residual stress state can be obtained according to the principles of elastomechanics. Destructive testing methods are relatively simple and generally have high test accuracy, but in some cases surface damage is unacceptable. Therefore, in order to prevent the sample from being damaged, a nondestructive testing method for measuring physical properties of the material itself using a specific type of equipment has been rapidly developed. These methods do not affect continued use of the measured workpiece, and are suitable for residual stress measurement in most cases; therefore, the nondestructive testing method is gradually becoming the development direction of the residual stress test.
The conventional plane stress measurement method mostly adopts a single-crystal-element contact type ultrasonic transducer, and because the contact type ultrasonic transducer inevitably needs to customize wedge blocks matched with the contact type ultrasonic transducer for generating different incident angles, and needs to use a couplant to ensure sufficient and effective acoustic coupling. The use of wedge blocks and couplant results in inconvenient planar stress measurement operation of the contact ultrasonic transducer, and can not be applied to automation and industrialization occasions. Meanwhile, when the single-crystal-element contact ultrasonic transducer is used for measuring, acoustic time difference information is obtained by only one propagation path in each measuring direction to obtain stress components, however, the change of the acoustic time difference caused by the stress is also ns-level due to small change of the material speed, so that the single-crystal-element contact ultrasonic transducer is very easily influenced by external noise, temperature and other external environment factors, and meanwhile, the acoustic time difference error caused by the uneven thickness of the couplant is intolerable, so that the accuracy of plane stress measurement is influenced.

the phased array air coupling transducer of this embodiment is mainly composed of N piezoelectric ceramics, a matching layer, a backing layer, a signal connection end, a wire and a housing. In order to detect the plane stress of the specific thickness of the to-be-detected piece, the center frequency of the phased array air coupling transducer needs to be determined, so that parameters such as the diameter, the thickness and the like of the piezoelectric ceramic are determined. The material and thickness of the matching layer are determined according to the best matching principle of the matching layer.
Z 1 =(Z 0 Z 2 ) 1/2
Wherein Z is 0 Acoustic impedance, Z, of piezoelectric ceramics 1 To match the acoustic impedance of the layer, Z 2 Is the acoustic impedance of air.
A positive integer n is determined, where n may be 1, 2 or 3 in balancing the structural requirements of the material with parasitics. Thickness of matching layer l 1 Is that
l 1 =(2n-1)λ 1 /4
λ 1 Is an ultrasonic wavelength.
Ultrasonic stress measurement methods are based on the effect of sonoelasticity, where the stress of a material affects the time of flight of ultrasonic waves in the material. Critical refraction longitudinal waves (LCR waves) have a higher sensitivity to stress than other types of ultrasound waves. To excite critical refraction longitudinal wave (LCR wave), snell's law and air sound velocity c are used air Determining inclination angle theta of phased array air coupling transducer during plane stress measurement by sound velocity c of material to be measured T And theta R :
In order to ensure that the sound beam has enough energy, an excitation signal is determined to be a sine pulse signal modulated by a hanning window with the center frequency of f and the period of N, the sine pulse signal passes through a low-pass filter and then is sequentially applied to an excitation phased array air coupling transducer through a signal connecting end, 1 to N piezoelectric ceramics are sequentially excited, and the N piezoelectric ceramics of the phased array air coupling transducer which receive response signals during each excitation receive LCR wave signals. And the response signal is amplified by the pre-amplifier and then is collected by the high-speed data collection board card. After the excitation is completed, acoustic time differences of the n×n propagating signals, i.e., acoustic time differences of the LCR wave and the response signal, will be obtained. The acoustic time difference T1 after the errors introduced by the external environment such as the outside and the temperature change are restrained in the measuring direction is obtained through data processing methods such as mean value processing and the like:
wherein,is the acoustic time difference of the a-th propagation path signal in the 1 st measurement direction.
As can be seen from fig. 2:
derivation of cocoa the product can be obtained by the method,
t 1 =t 2
from this, it can be seen that the required propagation time t of the N×N propagation paths 1 And t 2 Is identical, so that the stress measurement length L of N×N propagation paths 0 =L N×N . The stress sigma in the measuring direction 1 Can be derived from the acoustic time difference T1 based on the sonoelastic effect,
σ 1 =K·T1
wherein lambda and mu are Lame constants, m is Murraghan constant, and K is stress coefficient.
The first measuring direction is overlapped with the main coordinate axis and defined as 0 DEG, and the central point of the central connecting line of the transducer for receiving the exciting signal and the transducer for receiving the response signal is taken as the rotation center to rotate by two angles theta in turn 2 And theta 3 Repeating the above operations in 2 different measurement directions to obtain acoustic time differences T2 and T3 corresponding to the measurement directions, and obtaining stress sigma of 3 measurement directions by combining with the acoustic elastic effect 1 、σ 2 Sum sigma 3 . And obtaining 3 parameters of plane stress of a measuring point (a projection point of the rotation center corresponding to the to-be-measured piece) according to Morse stress theory, wherein sigma 1, sigma 2 and theta are obtained. By step-by-step scanning the phased array air coupling transducer, the plane stress measurement of the area to be measured of the piece to be measured is realized:
calculated by Morse round stress theory:
σ 1 =σ 1 cos 2 θ+σ 2 sin 2 θ
σ 2 =σ 1 cos 2 (θ 2 +θ)+σ 2 sin 2 (θ 2 +θ)
σ 3 =σ 1 cos 2 (θ 3 +θ)+σ 2 sin 2 (θ 3 +θ)
wherein sigma 1 Is the first principal stress, sigma 2 And θ is the included angle between the first principal stress and the fiber direction of the orthotropic composite material.
And 3 parameters of plane stress of a measuring point (a projection point of the rotation center corresponding to the to-be-measured piece) can be obtained through calculation, wherein the first main stress sigma 1, the second main stress sigma 2 and the included angle theta between the first main stress and the fiber direction of the orthotropic composite material. And performing step scanning on the phased array air coupling transducer, so that plane stress measurement of the to-be-measured area of the to-be-measured piece is realized.
