Problems solved by technology

This method has the following disadvantages: (1) It takes a long time for the metal melt to establish equilibrium with the gas chamber, resulting in a low response speed of the sensor; (2) The material used to establish the gas chamber in the sensor is mostly ceramic cover or fiber material. Water is easy to adhere to the surface of the material. During the measurement process, the water reacts with the metal melt to produce a large amount of hydrogen, which affects the accuracy of the measurement results; (3) During multiple measurements, the metal and metal oxides attached to the probe surface are easy to block the gas. room, resulting in slower establishment of equilibrium, reduced response speed, and even affects measurement accuracy

Abstract

The invention provides a sensor for measuring the content of hydrogen in a metal melt and a measuring method. The sensor structurally comprises a solid-state proton conductor element, a reference electrode, a quasi-to-be-detected electrode, a reference substance, a communicating pipe and an insulating ceramic adhesive. The measuring method comprises the following steps: (1) inserting a sensor and a corrosion-resistant electrode into a metal melt, ensuring that a solid-state proton conductor element is completely immersed into the metal melt and a quasi-to-be-detected electrode and the metal melt are in direct contact, wherein the contact surface is a to-be-detected electrode; (2) connecting a potentiometer, a reference electrode conductor or a metal gas-guide pipe and a corrosion-resistant electrode and measuring the potential difference between a reference electrode and the to-be-detected electrode; (3) calculating the hydrogen content S of the metal melt according to the measured potential difference, the temperature of the metal melt, and the saturated solubility of hydrogen in the metal melt. According to the sensor, the proton conductor element can be in direct contact with the metal melt, the atmosphere of balance between the reference substance and hydrogen in the metal melt can be quickly built, the measurement speed is higher, the measurement result is more accurate and the sensor is simpler by simplification.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hydrogen measuring sensor technology, in particular to a sensor and a measuring method for measuring hydrogen content in molten metal. Background technique [0002] In general, hydrogen is a harmful element in metal materials, which can cause defects such as hydrogen embrittlement, porosity, and pinholes in metal materials. Timely measurement of hydrogen content in metals, and proper dehydrogenation treatment after information feedback can avoid various hydrogen-induced defects in metal materials.
