The invention relates to the technical field of
metal processing and manufacturing, and discloses a
metal melt
surface tension measuring and calculating method. According to the method, the length 2a, the height h and the bottom length 2l of the
metal ball are calculated by recognizing the coordinates of the end points of the
molten metal ball. Firstly, end point coordinates of a metal ball are obtained through an image recognition technology; then, relevant geometric parameters of the small balls are calculated; and then, calculating the
surface tension of the metal melt according to a known
physical model by utilizing the geometric parameters. Compared with a traditional
surface tension measuring method, the method has the advantages that complex
ellipse fitting is not needed, the
contact angle does not need to be solved, and therefore the calculation process is simplified. In addition, the method provided by the invention has the advantages of higher identification precision, strong anti-interference capability and shorter calculation steps, and occupies less memory space after
programming is realized. The method not only improves the measurement efficiency, but also reduces the requirement on hardware equipment.
