Problems solved by technology

If the parameter setting is not good, resulting in divergent oscillation or constant amplitude oscillation of the system, the center frequency of the magnet ω 0 (ω 0 =γB 0 , where γ is the magnetic spin ratio, hydrogen proton 1 The H magnetic gyration ratio is 42.56MHz / T) will also change continuously with the oscillation of the magnet temperature, which will affect the quality of the image
[0006] In order to improve the thermal stability of permanent magnets, this problem is usually solved by configuring the constant temperature control system of permanent magnets. In the prior art, AC heating is used. Although the permanent magnets can be guaranteed to work at a constant temperature, AC When heated, its alternating current generates an electromagnetic field, which also affects the magnetic resonance system. At the same time, because the controlled object is a permanent magnet with a weight of about 13 tons or 20 tons, the lag time is long, and the conventional self-tuning method cannot be used. Obtain the control parameter K of PID in the constant temperature control system p ,T i and T d range

Embodiment 1

[0029] The present invention is designed to improve the thermal stability of the permanent magnetic field in the permanent magnetic resonance imaging system. The automatic control of its constant temperature is realized by a closed-loop method. The working principle is shown in Figure 1. The target set value r(t) decreases To measure the value y(t), get the deviation e(t), the deviation e(t) is the input quantity of the PID process regulator, and the control quantity u(t) of the PID process regulator is shown in formula (1):

[0030] u(t)=K p [e(t)+1 / T i ∫e(t)dt+T d ×de(t) / dt] (1)

[0031] Among them: K p is the proportional coefficient;

[0032] T i is the integral time constant;

[0033] T d is the differential time constant;

[0034] Choose the appropriate K p ,T i and T d The control quantity u(t) of the regulator controls the duty cycle of the solid state relay, thereby controlling the output power of the electric heating body, so that the control p...

Embodiment 2

[0068] The difference from Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, K in process S3-5 p , T i , T d The setting parameters are respectively 10, 100 seconds, and 100 seconds. After testing, the system has a shorter response time and better stability. After testing, the offset of the magnet center frequency of the first type of permanent magnetic resonance imaging system was reduced from the original ±1500Hz to ±700Hz; the offset of the magnet center frequency of the second type of permanent magnetic resonance imaging system Reduced from the original ±2200Hz to ±1100Hz.

[0069] In actual shimming, if the magnetic field strength value within the range of +Z6~+Z1 (relative physical position calibration in the magnetic field action area, there are thirteen areas from -Z6 to +Z6) is greater than the center frequency value of the magnet, then Increase the Mr value of the first temperature controller TC1 of the upper pole head; if the magnetic field strength value within the range...
