Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of material research, and in particular relates to a non-contact high-temperature melt basic physical property measuring device. Background Art
[0002] High-temperature melt basic physical property measurement technology is of great significance in the fields of basic material research and nuclear power safety research. In addition, in the production technology fields of steel, metallurgy, petrochemicals, etc., high-temperature melt basic physical property measurement technology can also play a role in determining the physical properties of molten steel and measuring the viscosity change of blast furnace slag.
[0003] The viscosity coefficient of high-temperature fluid is usually measured using the principle of rotation method, and the viscosity of the fluid is determined by measuring the viscous torque of the fluid acting on the rotor or the rotation speed of the rotor. The existing viscometer based on the principle of rotation method mainly includes a testing device and a heating device: the testing device is connected to the rotor, and a crucible is set in the heating device, and the fluid is carried in the crucible. When one or both of the fluid and the rotor immersed therein rotate, the rotor will be affected by the viscous torque of the fluid and change the original speed and torque, so that the viscosity of the fluid can be directly measured by the viscometer (see CN201285366Y, CN201540238Y, CN101685058A). The existing surface tension coefficient can be measured by the cylinder pulling method, and the density parameter can be measured by the Archimedean method (CN105716997).
[0004] The existing rotational viscometer has certain limitations in the hanging wire or torque method measuring device. For example, the hanging wire assembly process is complicated, and the hanging wire position is difficult to coincide with the motor axis, making it difficult to accurately control, resulting in large errors; for example, when the heating device and the test device are close, the temperature range is limited, generally only to about 300°C; for example, when the temperature measurement range is between 100-1000°C, the heating device and the test device are far apart. In order to avoid collision between the rotor and the crucible wall during the test, a large distance must be kept between the rotor and the crucible, thereby limiting the lower limit of the viscosity test (see CN105300842A). The existing pulling tube method for measuring surface tension and the Archimedes method for measuring density both involve certain parts of the device in contact with the high-temperature melt, which is easy to be contaminated and melted (CN105716997). At the same time, temperature monitoring generally uses contact measurement methods such as thermocouples, and it is difficult for temperature-sensitive elements to withstand the corrosion of high temperatures or salt substances for a long time.
[0005] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0030] A method for measuring basic physical properties of high temperature melt using the above device comprises the following steps:
[0031] 1) Sample suspension: Open the inert gas valve of the adjustable temperature inert gas suspension system in the temperature control and suspension system, adjust the gas flow controller to 2-3L / min, run the gas temperature control program to heat the inert gas to above 500°C, use the fixed-point negative pressure delivery system to place the spherical sample 2-3cm above the nozzle to keep it basically balanced in the vertical direction, and start the three-axis acoustic stabilization suspension system in the temperature control and suspension system to keep the spherical sample stable in three-dimensional space;
[0032] 2) Sample temperature control and heating: Turn on the power supply of the laser heating system and the cooling system of the supporting equipment in the temperature control and suspension system, adjust the distance between the two sets of converging lenses and the sample so that the diameter of the laser spot projected onto the surface of the spherical sample is 3-6mm, run the laser power control input card program, heat and melt the sample according to the predetermined program, and keep it at the temperature to be measured;
[0033] 3) Excitation loading: During the sample density measurement process, no excitation loading is required; during the surface tension measurement process, one pair of transducers in the three-axis acoustic stable suspension system is controlled, and a series of sine waves are loaded on the basis of the original stable suspension control waveform, and the frequency scanning range, frequency step, scanning speed and amplitude value are set (such as setting the frequency scanning range to 100-300Hz, the frequency step to 1Hz, and the dwell time at each frequency to 2s) to make the sample surface stimulated to oscillate until resonance occurs and reaches the maximum amplitude; during the viscosity coefficient measurement process, the sample surface is excited to resonate as above, and the excitation signal loading is stopped after 10-20s, so that the sample surface is damped and vibrated until it recovers stability;
[0034] 4) Measurements by various sensors: During the experiment, the temperature measurement system continuously monitors the temperature data of the sample in real time and provides feedback signals to the laser heating system. The high-speed camera continuously records the contour changes of the sample in real time. The melt movement and morphology optical measurement system continuously monitors the position of the sample in real time and records the changes in the surface contour and compares them with the high-speed camera data.
[0035] Furthermore, the above method for measuring the basic physical properties of high temperature melt also includes a preparation step before the measurement experiment, which is as follows:
[0036] Sample pretreatment: weigh the powders of each component of the sample according to the stoichiometric ratio, weigh the powders after uniform mixing, press them into spheres with a diameter of 4-8 mm, sinter them at a high temperature of 900-1500℃ to make the porosity of the sample reach 5-15%, weigh the spherical samples, and record the mass of each sample;
[0037] Laser power output control program compilation: edit the laser power control input card, set the initial output control parameters, process temperature control curve and corresponding duration; the laser power control input card takes effect when the laser is heating the sample. Its heating power and time make the sample heat up and melt at the expected speed. When the temperature required for the experiment is reached, this program is coupled with the pyrometer to obtain the real-time temperature of the sample, which is convenient for fine adjustment of the laser power, so that the temperature of the sample is stabilized at the set temperature;
[0038] Adjustment and setting of high-temperature imaging system: prepare a standard steel ball with a diameter of 2 mm to calibrate the pixels of the high-speed camera, adjust the relative positions of the high-speed camera, macro lens, background laser and sample to focus the image and make the spherical sample occupy 1 / 2-2 / 3 of the field of view, and set the frame rate of the high-speed camera to 800-1500 Hz.
[0039] Furthermore, the above method for measuring the basic physical properties of high temperature melt further includes a post-measurement experiment processing step, which is as follows:
[0040] Data analysis: After all experimental data are transferred to the hard disk, the photos taken are analyzed and data fitted to obtain the semi-major axis, angle and position information of the ellipse corresponding to each frame of the picture. Then, the density, surface tension and viscosity of the tested sample are obtained according to the algorithm and a database is compiled;
[0041] Sample post-processing: After the experiment, samples are stored centrally. If toxic or hazardous substances are present, they must be packaged separately and labeled with warnings. If national controlled materials are involved, they must be weighed after the experiment, and detailed records must be kept for standardized storage.
[0042] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0043] 1. The high-temperature melt basic physical property measuring device of the present invention can measure physical quantities such as high-temperature melt density, viscosity coefficient, surface tension coefficient, etc. through non-contact control and signal acquisition methods.
[0044] 2. The laser heating technology can make the measured material reach above 3000℃, with a wide measurable temperature range. The laser heating design that covers the surface of the spherical sample in opposite directions can make the sample heated more evenly;
[0045] 3. Use acoustically assisted gas suspension to suspend the sample in space to achieve the purpose of non-contact;
[0046] 4. The temperature measurement method adopts high-precision infrared two-color sensor. The overall temperature measurement range of the two ranges can be 1000-3500℃, and it can ensure an accuracy of 0.25% in the relatively low temperature section and 0.5% in the high temperature section. It has a more flexible and reliable accuracy configuration than the general single-range sensor, and it is far beyond the temperature range that can be measured by thermocouples. It is a non-contact measurement, which can effectively avoid high temperature damage to the temperature measuring element;
[0047] 5. The measurement principle is classic and clear. The surface displacement signal analysis method is used to obtain the resonance frequency of the sample when it is deformed by external excitation and the attenuation factor of deformation recovery after the excitation is removed to deduce the surface tension coefficient and viscosity coefficient of the melt sample at a certain temperature. The Young-Laplace curve of the sample under a small deformation due to gravity is obtained through image analysis, and the density of the melt sample is derived from it.
[0048] 6. The present invention has no restrictions on materials, and the heating efficiency is higher than that of conventional electric heating and electromagnetic induction heating. The non-contact measurement can well avoid interference with the sample and contamination and melting of sensitive components. The device can measure multiple physical parameters and has good integration. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
