Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for the detection of mechanical stress states, in particular of internal stresses and load stresses (compressive stress or tensile stress), in a solid body which absorbs energy (light, electromagnetic radiation, etc.).
- the principle of the measuring method is based on the fact that a solid during periodic or pulsed irradiation with high-energy radiation also heats up periodically in accordance with the modulation frequency or pulse sequence of the excitation source at the irradiated locations due to the absorption of the radiation energy, and the heat generated from the location of the irradiation spreading out as a thermal wave in the solid.
- the properties of this thermal wave with regard to amplitude and phase relationship between the excitation and response signals depend on the properties of the solid. Amplitude and phase signals are therefore suitable measurands for describing the thermal properties of a solid.
- a solid If a solid is subjected to high-energy, intensity-modulated radiation, heat is generated at the location of the radiation absorption and the heating spreads out as a periodically varying temperature in the form of a thermal wave in the solid.
- the heat expansion and the resulting temperature distribution is physically described by the heat diffusion equation with location-dependent thermal properties (thermal conductivity, density, heat capacity) of the solid. It follows from this equation that the depth of penetration of the damped and highly dispersive thermal wave penetrating into the solid has a strong dependence on the modulation frequency of the exciting radiation.
- both the amplitude and the phase of the thermal response signal to the excitation frequency contain information about the material property and its change, whereby it should be noted that the thermal properties, in particular the thermal diffusivity and thermal effusivity (which again in a different way from thermal conductivity, density and heat capacity), depending on the microscopic properties of the material, such as. B. the voltage states.
- the amplitude contains information on the absorption coefficient and the thermal characteristics of the body being examined. It depends on the optical, thermal and geometric properties of the sample surface.
- the phase relationship between the excitation and the thermal response signal contains information about the propagation behavior of the thermal wave in the solid and is thus influenced by material properties which influence the diffusion of the heat, that is to say the thermal diffusivity. Since the propagation behavior of the signal in the solid also depends on the modulation frequency of the excitation source, information from different depths and surrounding distances from the excitation location can also be received by the response signal by changing the modulation frequency.
- the thermal characteristics in particular the thermal diffusivity, change at different locations. Since the thermal diffusivity or the thermal parameters are in turn dependent on the microscopic state of the material, the material state can also be inferred from this, the depth profile of the thermal properties being correlated with the course of stress states in the interior of the material.
- response-dependent frequency signals are obtained from the same distances due to the spherical propagation of a wave, which correspond to a spherical surface, but which lie in different depth ranges of the solid.
- This can be partial be undesirable since only one response signal from a certain depth is required in each case, in particular since residual stresses are also often depth-dependent.
- it is advantageous to provide a large excitation surface relative to the measurement surface of the response signal and / or the depth of penetration of the signal into the solid body, the measurement surface being in each case sufficiently spaced from the edges of the excitation surface. This ensures that the response signal is almost one-dimensional and changes in the signal are only depth-dependent.
- the diffusion equation at the measurement site also becomes one-dimensional and mathematical models can be used to reconstruct the only depth-dependent thermal parameters from the frequency profile of the thermal signals (amplitude and phase).
- the surface of a solid is excited on an excitation surface A with an intensity-modulated, energy-carrying radiation with a modulation frequency f, whereby any radiation can be used.
- An intensity-modulated laser in the visible to ultraviolet range is preferably used here, but simple light, high-energy X-ray radiation or other electromagnetic radiation, high-energy electron radiation or other particle radiation can also be used.
- the energy response of the solid body with respect to intensity and / or phase shift to the modulation frequency is measured, the heat response (according to the Planck 1 see steel law) preferably being included here
- An infrared sensitive detector is measured.
- Other detection methods such as photothermal beam deflection, interferometry, thermal reflection, beam deflection in reflection, can also be used if the geometric conditions at the measuring location allow this.
- This measurement is carried out for a multiplicity of different modulation frequencies f x at the same measuring location and a comparison of the intensity and / or phase profile between a standard solid of the same material or another location of the specimen and the specimen to be examined is made via the frequencies f x performed.
- This comparison preferably consists in a simple subtraction (phase signal) or quotient formation (amplitude signal) of the values of the corresponding excitation frequency, as a result of which a so-called contrast curve is obtained.
- a change in the thermal properties up to a depth predetermined by the modulation frequency and thus the presence of a tension state of the sample body at the location to be examined can be concluded.
- the frequency-dependent amplitude and phase contrast functions differ characteristically in the case of existing tensile or compressive stresses, so that the ratio at different modulation frequencies is sufficient to clearly distinguish tensile and compressive stresses.
- the size is to be correlated with the level of tensile or compressive stress. It is therefore emphasized that a calibration must be carried out for each base material, since the correlation of tensile and compressive stresses with the changes in the thermal parameters is material-specific.
- a device for detecting stress states, in particular residual stresses (compressive stress or tensile stress) in an energy-absorbing solid requires the following units: a source for emitting an intensity-modulated, energy-carrying excitation radiation with a
- Modulation frequency f which irradiates an excitation surface A on the solid; a measuring device for registering the energy response of the solid (detector) with respect to intensity and / or phase shift to the modulation frequency on a measuring surface m on the solid; an electronic unit (with periodic excitation: lock-in amplifier), which determines the amplitude and phase from the modulator and detector signals; an electronic system that compares the intensity and / or phase curve between one
- the device can also be designed in such a way that the measuring area m is so much smaller than A that m lies within A, so that influences from the edge areas are negligible.
- the device according to the invention can additionally or exclusively be equipped with a measuring device for registering the mirage effect for registering the heat response of the solid.
- the measuring device can advantageously also be equipped with an infrared detector for measuring the energy response of the solid.
- an electronic system which is suitable: between the two measuring locations or specimens to calculate the contrast curve over the frequency (difference of the measured values depending on the frequency) and / or - the state of tension of the specimen at the location to be examined due to the change in contrast and
- the last-mentioned measuring devices can also be used according to the invention to carry out an automatic production control in a production process or to detect the wear condition of a tool over a longer period of time on the basis of several comparative measurements and to determine an optimized replacement time of the tool.
- this method can sweep the surface of a solid and in this way, for example, to display one or more flat images on which the course of the thermal parameters is shown at different depths, the The size and direction of the gradient can be specified in color or by gray values.
- Fig. 1 basic principle of the measuring arrangement
- Fig. 2 different variations of 4 to 4 measuring devices according to the invention.
- Fig. 1 shows the principle of the measuring arrangement.
- a relatively large excitation area A is subjected to an intensity-modulated radiation (shown here as a chopper) with a modulation frequency f.
- the radiation strikes the surface and generates thermal waves according to their modulation frequency, the wave fronts of which are shown in simplified form as dashed lines.
- the solid body emits response signals corresponding to the thermal waves, which are imaged over the measuring surface m in the form of emerging infrared radiation onto an answer detector via an optical element (shown in FIG. 1 as a lens, but also possible as a mirror) which is focused on the surface m by a lens.
- an optical element shown in FIG. 1 as a lens, but also possible as a mirror
- a suitable selection of the dimensions of A and m in the area of the measuring surface gives me an area in which the wavefronts spread linearly, so that a one-dimensional, only depth-dependent Response signal can be detected, which is to be interpreted using the diffusion equation.
- 2 shows a possible arrangement of a measuring device.
- a laser is shown as the radiation source, the light of which is modulated by a chopper, the information about the respective modulation frequency being transmitted to an electronic system via the information line II.
- the response signal is measured simultaneously via a response detector and also passed directly to the electronic system via the information line 12.
- the response detector consists of an infrared-sensitive receiver.
- the upstream imaging optical element (identified as a lens in FIG. 2) can consist of an IR-transparent lens, a combination of lenses, a mirror, a combination of mirrors or a combination of lenses and mirrors hen.
- FIG. 3 An alternative embodiment of this is shown in FIG. 3, in which, instead of detecting IR radiation, the effect of the thermal waves on the surrounding medium is measured by deflecting a laser beam due to the temperature-related change in the refractive index.
- the well-known Mirage effect is used here.
- Other (not shown here) alternative detection methods are thermal reflection, beam deflection in reflection, photothermal interferometry.
- FIGS. 4 finally shows a combination of the two principles from FIGS. 2 and 3, the measurement signals here also being forwarded via the information lines II - 13 to the electronic unit and then to the electronic system for evaluation for storage and documentation be directed.
- the electronic system itself also features via appropriate storage units, e.g. B. to compare and evaluate the previously measured measured values of standard samples with the results of the solid to be assessed or with measured values from other places on the same body according to the above-mentioned method.
- the results are transferred to a display or a printer.
