Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of material performance testing, in particular to a method for testing fatigue performance of an aluminum alloy material in a simulated high-pressure hydrogen environment.
Background
The safe and efficient hydrogen storage technology is a key link of the hydrogen energy industry chain. The most mature and widely used aluminum alloy hydrogen storage tank at present has an aluminum alloy inner container and a carbon fiber material coating the periphery of the inner container. The hydrogen storage density of the conventional 35MPa hydrogen storage tank is only 2.4 and wt percent, the hydrogen storage density of the next-generation hydrogen fuel vehicle is required to be improved to be more than 6.5 and wt percent, the corresponding hydrogen storage pressure is required to be more than 70MPa, and the whole service period is required to be subjected to repeated hydrogen charging and discharging cycles for more than ten thousand times. Under the cyclic load action of high-pressure hydrogen, local plasticity is reduced, cracks are rapidly expanded and durability is reduced easily, high-pressure hydrogen embrittlement is generated, and then the hydrogen storage tank is broken and loses efficacy, so that safety accidents are generated. Therefore, in order to ensure long-term, stable and reliable operation, special attention is paid to the fatigue performance of the aluminum alloy material under high-pressure hydrogen environment.
However, in the prior art, there are two main types of testing devices for fatigue performance of conventional materials under hydrogen atmosphere, one is to directly build up a high-pressure gas kettle, and the other is to utilize electrochemical reaction to permeate hydrogen. Patent application CN112540014a, for example, provides a fatigue test device and a method under high-pressure hydrogen atmosphere, wherein the test device comprises a fatigue test kettle, a crack length measuring mechanism, a recording mechanism, a hydrogen mechanism supply mechanism, a pressure measuring mechanism and the like.

In the literature 'influence of electrolytic hydrogen permeation and low cycle fatigue on the mechanical properties of 6061-T6Al alloy', the method of electrolytic hydrogen permeation and low cycle fatigue is adopted, and the change rule of the mechanical properties of 6061-T6Al alloy for the liner of the hydrogen storage bottle in the high-pressure hydrogen environment and the rapid hydrogen charging and discharging process is simulated and researched.
In the existing test method, the high-pressure gas kettle is relatively close to the real service condition of the material, but expensive high-pressure resistant equipment is required to be customized, the loading of hydrogen pressure above 70MPa is difficult to realize, in addition, the hydrogen is an explosive hazard source, the test hazard is high, and the popularization in a laboratory is difficult. The electrochemical reaction hydrogen permeation device is simple and convenient and is simple to operate, but the electrochemical process parameter change can only simulate the hydrogen concentration in the material, and the diffusion rate and the distribution state of hydrogen atoms under the working condition of ultrahigh hydrogen pressure above 70MPa are difficult to simulate.
Therefore, a method for testing the fatigue performance of an aluminum alloy material in a high-pressure hydrogen environment is needed, and the problem that the high-hydrogen pressure testing environment of the aluminum alloy material with the pressure of more than 70MPa is difficult to simulate in the prior art is solved.

Detailed Description
It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and features of the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail with reference to examples.
In order to solve the technical problem that the high hydrogen pressure test environment of the aluminum alloy material with the pressure of more than 70MPa is difficult to simulate, the application provides a method for testing the fatigue performance of the aluminum alloy material in the high-pressure hydrogen simulation environment, which comprises the following steps:
s1: under the temperature T and the humidity phi, carrying out pulling-direction loading-unloading-loading repeated cyclic test on the aluminum alloy material at the loading frequency f and the loading S until the aluminum alloy material is broken, wherein the temperature T is 20-35 ℃, the humidity phi is 40-97% RH, the loading frequency f is 0.05-0.2 Hz, and the loading S is 100-200 MPa;
s2: the fatigue performance of the aluminum alloy material in the simulated high-pressure hydrogen environment is obtained, wherein the fatigue performance is expressed as the number of times of the aluminum alloy material breaking under the load S in the simulated high-pressure hydrogen environment, and the simulated hydrogen pressure P in the simulated high-pressure hydrogen environment is obtained H2 70-170 MPa.
The method simulates the actual high-hydrogen pressure working condition by high-pressure hydrogen generated by hydrolysis reaction on the fresh surface when the aluminum alloy material is pulled to the loading-unloading-loading repeated circulation in the wet air.
According to the application, when the aluminum alloy is pulled to the loading-unloading-loading repeated circulation in the wet air, the oxide layer on the surface of the aluminum alloy is gradually broken due to plastic deformation, the leaked fresh surface activity is very high, the aluminum alloy is extremely easy to react with surrounding water vapor, high-pressure hydrogen is generated, and the hydrogen partial pressure can change along with the change of the ambient temperature and the humidity. According to the Gibbs free energy of the aluminum alloy hydrolysis reaction and a steam wet enthalpy diagram, a quantitative relation model between the ambient temperature, the humidity and the hydrogen partial pressure generated by the hydrolysis reaction can be established, and further the fatigue performance of the material under the corresponding hydrogen pressure can be evaluated by testing the fatigue life of the material under the specific temperature and humidity conditions.
The application establishes the simulated hydrogen pressure (P) based on the theoretical basis and a large number of experiments H2 ) Empirical model of the calculation relationship with the test humidity (phi) and temperature (T), namely: p (P) H2 =k.phi.exp (25.5-5202.6/T) ×exp (35923.4/T). Wherein K is an empirical constant of 2.628 x 10 -48 The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the Wherein T is given in Kelvin (K). In practical application, the unit of the value of T can be converted from K to the temperature. The empirical model lays a foundation for selecting proper humidity and temperature conditions for target simulated hydrogen pressure.
Based on the above experience model, the application discovers that the high hydrogen pressure environment of 70-170 MPa can be simulated for the aluminum alloy material in the pull-loading-unloading-loading repeated cycle experiment by setting the humidity to 40% -97% RH in the environment (20 ℃ -35 ℃) close to the room temperature. The difficulty of the simulation test of the high-hydrogen pressure environment is greatly reduced.
Further, the corresponding hydrogen pressure P can be obtained by changing the ambient temperature T and the humidity phi of the test sample H2 Fatigue properties of the lower material. The fatigue performance of the aluminum alloy material in the simulated high-hydrogen pressure environment can be effectively evaluated through the pulling-loading-unloading-loading cycle times of the material during fracture. Proved by experiments, the method can be used for measuring the simulated hydrogen pressure P H2 The fatigue performance of the aluminum alloy material in a high-hydrogen pressure environment of 70-170 MPa.
In order to verify the reliability of the simulated high-hydrogen pressure environment obtained by the empirical model, an aluminum alloy material is placed under the set temperature and humidity conditions (20-35 ℃ and 40-97% RH) for pulling loading-unloading-loading repeated cycle experiments, the obtained cycle times at break are compared with the fatigue performance of the same alloy material in the actual high-hydrogen pressure environment, the fact that the cycle times at break of the alloy in the simulated high-hydrogen pressure environment are identical with the alloy fatigue performance of the aluminum alloy material in the actual high-hydrogen pressure environment of 70-170 MPa is confirmed, and the empirical model can truly obtain the high-hydrogen pressure environment of 70-170 MPa.
The method creatively proposes that the pulling loading-unloading-loading repeated cyclic treatment is carried out on the aluminum alloy material by adjusting and controlling the temperature and humidity conditions in a laboratory environment, so that the high-hydrogen pressure environment of 70-170 MPa can be conveniently and safely simulated, and the fatigue performance of the aluminum alloy material in the high-pressure hydrogen environment can be effectively measured. The application ingeniously utilizes the following findings: the aluminum alloy material is repeatedly exposed to fresh surfaces by pulling to load-unload-load under a specific humidity environment and undergoes hydrolysis, thereby generating high-pressure hydrogen. According to the Gibbs free energy and the steam wet enthalpy diagram of the aluminum alloy hydrolysis reaction, a calculation relation experience model between temperature, humidity and corresponding pressure is obtained through a large number of experimental verification, and based on the experience model, the temperature and humidity conditions which are safer and more suitable for laboratory operation are selected, so that the fatigue performance of the aluminum alloy material under the simulated high-hydrogen pressure environment of 70-170 MPa is measured.
In the method, the temperature is controlled to be 20-35 ℃, and the humidity is controlled to be 40-97% RH, so that a 70-170 MPa simulated high-hydrogen pressure environment can be realized. Preferably, the temperature can be controlled to 25-30 ℃ and the humidity can be controlled to be in the range of 40-66% RH, more preferably 40-60% RH, which are easy to realize by conventional materials laboratories and have higher safety. The application has the remarkable advantages that the experimental risk of simulating the high-hydrogen pressure environment can be greatly reduced, and the convenience of laboratory operation is greatly improved.
In the method, the fresh surface of the aluminum alloy is required to be hydrolyzed in a humidity environment to obtain a simulated high-pressure hydrogen environment, and the fatigue loading frequency is set to be below 0.2Hz, particularly 0.05-0.2 Hz, so that enough time is ensured to be hydrolyzed, and the condition of the high-pressure hydrogen environment is achieved.

In addition, hydrogen is an explosive hazard source, so that the test hazard is high, and the hydrogen is difficult to popularize in a laboratory; the method for simulating and researching the fatigue performance of the electrolytic hydrogen permeation device in the high-pressure hydrogen environment by utilizing the electrochemical hydrogen charging reaction is simple and convenient, and is simple to operate, but only the hydrogen concentration in the material can be simulated by changing electrochemical technological parameters, so that the diffusion rate and the distribution state of hydrogen atoms under the working condition of ultrahigh hydrogen pressure above 70MPa are difficult to simulate, and the difference exists between the diffusion rate and the distribution state and the actual service state of the hydrogen storage tank.
