Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of non-contact temperature measurement, and particularly to a method and apparatus for measuring temperature fields. Background Technology
[0002] Engines are complex thermomechanical machines involving multiple disciplines such as aerodynamics, thermodynamics, mechanics, and materials science. Engine blades are prone to failure and premature degradation in extreme environments, making engine blade testing and diagnostic technology a key technology for ensuring the success of engine development. Temperature is a crucial physical quantity in engine operation monitoring; accurate measurement of the surface temperature of engine blades plays a vital role in assessing their operating status and service life, and ensuring engine safety.
[0003] Engine target blade temperature measurement technologies mainly include two categories: contact and non-contact. Thermocouples are the most basic contact temperature measurement technology. However, traditional thermocouple temperature measurement methods have long response times, making them unsuitable for transient temperature measurements. Furthermore, they can damage the target blade structure and affect the target temperature field distribution. Thin-film temperature sensors (CN201811300429.7) are gradually replacing thermocouples for transient temperature measurement of target blades. The shortcomings of contact temperature measurement technology include weak anti-interference capabilities, intrusive measurement, low spatial and temporal resolution, thermocouple aging, and difficulties in signal lead connections. Compared to contact temperature measurement technology, thermal radiation temperature measurement technology achieves non-contact temperature measurement based on the target's self-heating radiation intensity. It features non-interference, a wide temperature measurement range, and convenient signal transmission. Thermal radiation temperature measurement technology overcomes the shortcomings of traditional contact temperature measurement, measuring surface temperature without contact with the object being measured. However, there are still challenges in measuring the temperature of turbine rotor blades: interference from gas radiation in the test environment; unknown high-temperature emissivity of the blade surface; and the target blade rotation speed exceeding 10,000 rpm. Measuring the radiation temperature field of high-speed blades places stringent requirements on sensors. To prevent motion blur in dynamic blade thermal radiation images, the exposure time for acquiring a single frame of thermal radiation image needs to be less than 500 ns. Within the temperature range of 200–800℃, existing radiation temperature measurement devices, such as infrared thermometers, cannot achieve effective measurement.
[0004] Therefore, in view of the requirements for measuring the temperature field of engine turbine rotor blades under test environment and the limitations of existing technology applications, it is urgent to develop non-contact temperature measurement devices and methods for engine turbine rotor blades. These devices and methods can solve key problems such as gas interference, unknown emissivity, and temperature field measurement of blades with speeds greater than 10,000 rpm in test environment, so as to achieve high-precision measurement of engine turbine rotor blade temperature in test environment.

[0141] Where D is the imaging accuracy of the CCD imaging sensor, ω is the rotational speed of the target, W is the height of the target, and R is the radius of the impeller.
[0142] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the imaging recognition accuracy of the CCD imaging sensor 22 is expressed as follows:
[0143] D = L / (N * 5) (8)
[0144] Where L is the width of the target being detected, and N is the number of effective pixels corresponding to the width of the target being detected on the CCD imaging sensor.
[0145] The following are specific embodiments, and in conjunction with Figure 2 This invention describes a method for measuring the temperature field of rotating blades fixed on an impeller using the temperature field measuring device provided in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the impeller is an engine impeller with an optical window. The first beam splitter 113 and the second beam splitter 114 in the fluorescence unit 11 form an integrated beam splitter structure with three optical interfaces. The first interface is mounted to the engine's optical window via a flange, the second interface is connected to the imaging module 2, and the third interface 3 is connected to the beam expanding and homogenizing mechanism 112. The beam expanding and homogenizing mechanism 112 is connected to the laser 111 in the laser unit 11 via a flange.
[0146] In use Figure 2 When using the temperature measuring device in the system, the specific steps are as follows:
[0147] First, determine the measurement bandwidth of fluorescence radiation of the target leaf (i.e., the gating integration time of image intensifier 21).
[0148] Assuming the target blade's rotational speed is ω = 12000 rpm, the height of a single blade is W = 44 mm, the impeller radius is R = 275 mm, and the number of target blades is N = 100, then the blade's linear velocity is V = 2*π*ω*(W+R) / 60 (m / s) ≈ 400 m / s. The CCD imaging sensor 22 has a spatial resolution of D = 0.1 mm for the object-side blade, and the minimum imaging accuracy is α (m), typically α = D / 5 = 0.02 mm. Therefore, the maximum integration time (i.e., exposure time) of the image intensifier 21 is Δt = α / V = 50 ns, which is the measurement time bandwidth of the target blade's fluorescence radiation. Meeting this condition allows for the effective measurement of blades rotating at 12000 rpm.
[0149] Figure 3 This is a timing diagram of the temperature field measurement device provided in the embodiment of the present invention performing sampling.
[0150] To better understand the process of the embodiments of the present invention, the first sampling period for the first fluorescence signal and the second fluorescence signal, and the second sampling period for the third fluorescence signal and the fourth fluorescence signal, can use the same sampling period (i.e., as shown in the figure). Figure 3 (As shown in part a) for illustration. Figure 3 As shown in section a, this can be viewed as multiple sampling periods, where the high level represents the sampling time and the low level represents the non-sampling time. The sampling time of each sampling period is the exposure time of the CCD imaging sensor 22, which is also the imaging time of one frame of image.
[0151] The temperature field measurement of the target blade using the aforementioned temperature field measuring device includes two scenarios, which will be explained in detail below.
[0152] When the target blade can reach the test area once within the sampling time (10ms) of each frame of the CCD imaging sensor 22, the specific sampling process is as follows:
[0153] like Figure 3 As shown in section b, the timing sequence of the acquisition of the first and second fluorescence signals is illustrated. Figure 3 Part b includes multiple first sampling cycles. Taking one first sampling cycle as an example, at time t0, the target blade rotates to the test area, and the position trigger sends a signal. At this time, the timing control unit 31 sends a timing signal to turn on the pulsed laser and emit the first laser pulse. At the same time, the timing control unit 31 sends a timing signal to control the imaging module 2 to start acquiring the first and second fluorescence signals generated by the target blade. The gating integration time (Δt) of the image intensifier 21 in each first sampling cycle is the actual acquisition time of each fluorescence signal.
[0154] Since the target leaf only reaches the test area once during the sampling time of each image frame, meaning the target leaf emits only the first and second fluorescence signals once, the imaging module 2 obtains one first image based on the first fluorescence signal and one second image based on the second fluorescence signal image during the acquisition time of each image frame. The gating integration time of the image intensifier 21 is set to Δt = 50 ns, meaning the actual acquisition time for each fluorescence signal is Δt = 50 ns. Following this procedure, the target leaf rotates for multiple cycles, and the CCD imaging sensor 22 can obtain M = 100 first images and M = 100 second images. The fluorescence intensities of the M first and second images are summed to obtain the steady-state fluorescence intensity measurement values for fluorescence signals at different wavelengths, thereby enhancing the signal intensity.
[0155] like Figure 3 As shown in section c, the acquisition timing of the third and fourth fluorescence signals is illustrated. Figure 3Part b includes multiple second sampling periods, corresponding to the first sampling period. For each second sampling period, at time t0, the target blade reaches the test area, the position trigger sends a signal, and at this time, the timing control unit 31 sends a timing signal to turn on the pulsed laser, emitting a second laser pulse. At time t1, after one pulse width ends, the imaging module 2 begins to acquire the third and fourth fluorescence signals generated by the target blade. Similarly, since the target blade only reaches the test area once, the imaging module 2 can only acquire the third and fourth fluorescence signals once within the acquisition time of each frame. Within one sampling period, one frame of the third image is obtained using one acquired third fluorescence signal, and one frame of the fourth image is obtained using one acquired fourth fluorescence signal. The gating integration time of the image intensifier 21 is set to Δt = 50 ns, meaning the actual acquisition time for each fluorescence signal is Δt = 50 ns. Following this procedure, the target blade 1 rotates for multiple cycles, and the image-enhanced CCD sensor 2 acquires M=100 frames of the third image and M frames of the fourth image. The fluorescence intensity of the M frames of the third and fourth images is summed to obtain the attenuation intensity measurement value of the fluorescence signal at different wavelengths.
[0156] When the target blade can reach the test area multiple times within the sampling time of each frame, the specific sampling process is as follows:
[0157] The modulation frequency of the measurement pulsed laser is set to 1kHz. During each frame acquisition time (i.e., 10ms) of the CCD imaging sensor 22, the target blade can reach the test area multiple times.
[0158] like Figure 3 As shown in section d, the timing sequence of the acquisition of the first and second fluorescence signals is illustrated. Figure 3 The middle part (d) includes multiple first sampling periods. In each first sampling period, the target blade reaches the test area multiple times, triggering a position trigger. At this moment, the timing control unit 31 sends a timing signal to activate the pulsed laser, emitting a first laser pulse. Since the target blade only reaches the test area multiple times, the pulsed laser can emit N=10 first laser pulses within the sampling time of one sampling period. This results in N=10 first fluorescence signals and second fluorescence signals. The imaging module uses the 10 acquired first fluorescence signals to obtain one first image frame, and uses the 10 acquired second fluorescence signals to obtain one second image frame. Thus, N=10 cumulative measurements of steady-state fluorescence intensity are achieved within the acquisition time of each image frame. The gating integration time of the image intensifier 21 is set to Δt=50ns each time a pulsed laser is emitted.
[0159] like Figure 3 As shown in section e, the acquisition timing of the third and fourth fluorescence signals is illustrated. Figure 3Part e includes multiple second sampling periods, corresponding to the previous sampling periods. For each second sampling period, the target blade reaches the test area multiple times, triggering a position trigger. At this moment, the timing control unit 31 sends a timing signal to activate the pulsed laser, emitting a second laser pulse. Since the target blade only reaches the test area multiple times, the pulsed laser can emit N=10 second laser pulses within one sampling period. This results in N=10 third and fourth fluorescence signals. Imaging module 2 uses the 10 third fluorescence signals acquired within one sampling period to obtain one third image frame, and uses the 10 fourth fluorescence signals acquired within one sampling period to obtain one fourth image frame. Thus, N=10 cumulative measurements of fluorescence attenuation intensity are achieved within each image frame acquisition time. The gating integration time of image intensifier 21 is set to Δt=50ns each time a pulsed laser is emitted.
[0160] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the acquisition of the first fluorescence signal, the second fluorescence signal, the third fluorescence signal, and the fourth fluorescence signal are two processes. It is understood that, if the equipment allows, the two processes can also be completed in one process.
[0161] Finally, the temperature field of the target blade is solved by combining the fluorescence intensity ratio method and the lifetime method, i.e., by using formulas (1)-(5). This step is achieved by calculation unit 32.
[0162] The above is the basic principle of the temperature solution method that combines fluorescence intensity ratio and lifetime method.
[0163] The above specific embodiments further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of the present invention. It should be understood that the above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
