Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of research on multi-field coupling effects in a grain pile ecosystem, and particularly to a graphical detection system and method for multi-field coupling in a granary based on NMR. Background Art
[0002] The grain in a granary during storage is a complex multi-field coupling ecosystem. This system consists of biological factors and abiotic factors. The biological factors include grains, microorganisms (such as fungi, bacteria, etc.), stored-grain pests (such as insects, mites, etc.), animals (such as rodents, birds, etc.), etc., which constitute the biological field in the grain pile; the abiotic factors include temperature, moisture, relative humidity, gas composition, micro-airflow, etc., which constitute the physical field in the grain pile. There are numerous complex interactions and connections among these fields, such as the influence of temperature on the respiration of grains, on the growth and reproduction of stored-grain pests, on stored-grain microorganisms, and on the change of stored-grain quality, etc., jointly determining the stability of the grain pile ecosystem.
[0003] Among the numerous factors in the grain pile ecosystem, temperature, moisture, and humidity are key factors affecting the storage stability of the grain pile. The difference in the temperature distribution of the grain pile will cause the migration of grain moisture, resulting in the flow of micro-airflow in the pores of the grain pile, causing the moisture to transfer from the high-temperature area to the low-temperature area; and the humidity to transfer from the low-temperature area to the high-temperature area. Local accumulations of temperature, moisture, and humidity are formed inside the grain pile, inducing grain mildew, heating, and pest infestation, posing a major threat to the safety of stored grains. Therefore, mastering the real-time state changes of the temperature field, moisture field, and humidity field in the grain pile and using the multi-field coupling theory to predict and analyze their state change laws are of great significance for realizing safe grain storage.
[0004] Currently, numerical simulation methods and in-situ experimental methods are mainly used to detect the multi-field coupling effects in the grain pile. The numerical simulation method detects the change laws of the fields in the grain pile by establishing two-dimensional or three-dimensional mathematical models and using simulation analysis software such as CFD and COMSOL for numerical simulation. This type of technology often relies on idealized mathematical models, makes assumptions and simplifications for some grain pile parameters, and requires a lot of time to adjust the parameters, unable to achieve real-time and accurate detection, and cannot be better applied in practice. The in-situ experimental method mostly focuses on the detection of the temperature and humidity fields in the grain pile, detecting the changes in temperature and humidity in the grain pile through temperature and humidity sensors. This type of technology has a long data sampling period, is time-consuming and laborious, and the temperature and humidity sensors are easily affected by external environmental factors and interference signals, making it difficult to ensure the accuracy of the detection results. In addition, the existing grain pile multi-field coupling detection technologies also cannot achieve real and accurate detection of the grain pile moisture field, resulting in the change of the grain pile moisture field under multi-field coupling still being in the "black box" stage. Therefore, there is an urgent need to invent a grain pile multi-field coupling detection system that can precisely detect the three parameters of temperature, humidity, and moisture in the grain pile, providing a new technical means for the research of multi-field coupling effects in the grain pile.

[0104] Example
[0105] In this example, two types of corn with different moisture contents are loaded inside the grain bin simulation device A. The height of the grain pile is 120 mm and the diameter is 140 mm.

The moisture content of the remaining corn is 18.78% (w.b.). Place the grain bin simulation device A in an incubator at a temperature of 30 °C to simulate the multi-field coupling effect caused by the relatively high local moisture content in the grain pile during the actual grain storage process.
