Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of weak magnetic signal detection technology for ferromagnetic materials, and particularly relates to a method for studying the characteristics of weak magnetic signals in ferromagnetic materials. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of modern industry, ferromagnetic materials play a significant role in daily life. Taking long-distance oil and gas pipelines as an example, pipeline transportation has become one of the main modes of international oil and gas transportation due to its low transportation costs and its resistance to the influence of the surrounding environment and temperature. The integrity of oil and gas pipelines is directly related to the safety of oil and gas energy transportation. Pipeline leaks not only cause economic losses but also serious environmental pollution and even casualties.

[0003] Therefore, the study of the weak magnetic signal characteristics of ferromagnetic materials is receiving increasing attention. Currently, research on the weak magnetic signal characteristics of ferromagnetic materials is still in the basic research stage. For example, the axial and radial peak values ​​of the weak magnetic signal, and the gradient and maximum values ​​of the characteristic parameters of the weak magnetic signal, are studied. However, due to the small order of magnitude of these characteristic values, the changes in the weak magnetic signal characteristics under the influence of internal pressure in the pipe are relatively small. If the crack size is small, it is impossible to accurately determine the changes in the weak magnetic signal characteristics.

[0004] Therefore, in order to address the above shortcomings, it is necessary to study a method for researching the weak magnetic signal characteristics of ferromagnetic materials. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for studying the characteristics of weak magnetic signals in ferromagnetic materials. Based on the magnetic model established by this invention and the introduced gradient energy factor, the stress damage of the pipeline weld model, the pipeline weld crack model, and the pipeline base material crack model is better reflected. This avoids the technical problem that the change amplitude of the weak magnetic signal characteristic parameters is small under the pressure inside the pipeline, making it impossible to accurately determine the change of weak magnetic signal characteristics.

[0012] Preferably, in the pressurization simulation calculation step, the initial pressure characteristic parameters of the axial and radial magnetic weakening signals are the axial peak value and radial peak value, magnetic field strength gradient and magnetic field strength gradient maximum value under the initial pressure condition, and the pressurization characteristic parameters of the axial and radial magnetic weakening signals are the axial peak value and radial peak value, magnetic field strength gradient and magnetic field strength gradient maximum value under the pressurization condition.

[0013] Preferably, in the gradient energy factor calculation step, in the Cartesian coordinate system, the gradient energy factor is the area enclosed by the magnetic field intensity gradient curve and the horizontal axis, and then the stress damage degree of the pipeline weld model, the pipeline weld crack model and the pipeline base material crack model is reflected according to the gradient energy factor.

[0014] Preferably, in the step of introducing the year-on-year growth rate, the year-on-year growth rate of the gradient energy factor is introduced and calculated in the gradient energy factor, and then the year-on-year growth rate of the gradient energy factor of the axial and radial weak magnetic signals of the pipeline weld model, the pipeline weld crack model and the pipeline base material crack model is quantitatively analyzed, so as to further quantitatively reflect the stress damage degree of the pipeline weld model, the pipeline weld crack model and the pipeline base material crack model.

The internal pressure applied to the pipe base material crack zone model is 0.5-3MPa, with an interval of 0.5MPa.

[0021] Compared to existing technologies, this invention obtains the gradient energy factor in the Cartesian coordinate system by utilizing the area enclosed by the magnetic field intensity gradient curve and the horizontal axis. Furthermore, it introduces a year-on-year growth rate into the gradient energy factor, facilitating quantitative analysis of the weak magnetic signal. This quantitatively reflects the degree of stress damage to the pipeline, effectively avoiding the technical problem that the small magnitude of traditional characteristic values ​​leads to small changes in the weak magnetic signal characteristics under pressure within the pipeline, making it impossible to accurately determine the changes in the characteristic parameters of the weak magnetic signal.

While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art. Unless otherwise specified, the techniques used in the embodiments are conventional means well known to those skilled in the art.

[0058] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this invention should be understood in their ordinary sense by those skilled in the art. The terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.

[0059] This embodiment provides a method for studying the weak magnetic signal characteristics of ferromagnetic materials. Based on the magnetic model established in the magnetic model establishment step, the magnetic model is first verified in the initial pressure simulation calculation step using a pipe weld model, a pipe weld crack model, and a pipe base material crack model. Then, based on the verified magnetic model, a pressure simulation calculation step is performed to obtain the stress damage degree of the pipe weld model, pipe weld crack model, and pipe base material crack model. Based on the pressure simulation calculation step, through the gradient energy factor calculation step and the introduction of the year-on-year growth rate step, the stress damage degree of the pipe weld model, pipe weld crack model, and pipe base material crack model is quantitatively reflected.

[0060] In the step of establishing the magnetic model, this embodiment, based on the ferromagnetism theory proposed by Jiles and Atherton, derives a force-magnetic coupling model, and obtains the following relationship between stress σ and magnetization M:

[0061]

[0062] Where α is the coupling parameter; H is the external magnetic field, μT; σ is the stress, MPa; E is Young's modulus, GPa; M is the magnetization, A / m; M s M is the saturation magnetization, A / m; an The hysteresis-free magnetization; H e The effective magnetic field is μ0; μ0 is the free permeability, N·A. -2ξ is the energy per unit volume, Pa; α is the material planning constant, A / m; c is the reversibility coefficient; γ1, γ2 and A is a parameter related to the magnetostriction coefficient. -4 ·m 4 ·Pa -1 ;

[0063] According to formula (1), the material parameters are taken as c = 0.25 and μ0 = 4π × 10 -7 NA -2 γ1=7×10 -18 A -2 ·m 2 , γ2=-3.3×10 -30 A -4 ·m 4 , Saturation magnetization Ms = 1.585 × 10 6 A / m, calculate the force-magnetic curve, such as Figure 1 As shown, there is a one-to-one correspondence between stress and magnetization, and the magnetization increases with increasing stress.

[0064] Based on magnetization M and relative permeability μ r Relationship:

[0065] M=(μ r -1)·H (2)

[0066] Substituting equation (2) into equation (1), we obtain the relationship between stress and relative permeability as follows:

[0067]

[0068] Where α is the coupling parameter; H is the external magnetic field, μT; σ is the stress, MPa; E is Young's modulus, GPa; M is the magnetization, A / m; M s M is the saturation magnetization, A / m; an The hysteresis-free magnetization; H e The effective magnetic field is μ0; μ0 is the free permeability, N·A. -2 ξ is the energy per unit volume, Pa; α is the material planning constant, A / m; c is the reversibility coefficient; γ1, γ2 and A is a parameter related to the magnetostriction coefficient. -4 ·m 4 ·Pa -1 ;

[0069] In one possible embodiment, in the gradient energy factor calculation step, the gradient energy factor is represented by , which is the area enclosed by the magnetic field intensity gradient curve and the horizontal axis of the curve in the Cartesian coordinate system, which more intuitively reflects the stress damage degree of the pipeline weld model, the pipeline weld crack model, and the pipeline base material crack model.

[0070] In one possible embodiment, in the step of introducing the year-on-year growth rate, the year-on-year growth rate of the gradient energy factor is introduced and calculated in the gradient energy factor, and then the year-on-year growth rate of the gradient energy factor of the axial and radial weak magnetic signals of the pipeline weld model, the pipeline weld crack model and the pipeline base material crack model is quantitatively analyzed, and the stress damage degree of the pipeline weld model, the pipeline weld crack model and the pipeline base material crack model is further quantitatively reflected.

[0071] The expression for introducing the year-on-year growth rate is as follows:

[0072]

[0073] In formula (4), ν is the year-on-year growth rate; A2 is the current period number, which is the gradient energy factor under maximum pressure when pressurized; A1 is the same period number, which is the gradient energy factor under minimum pressure when initially pressurized; ΔA is the increment, which refers to the increment of the gradient energy factor between the gradient energy factor under maximum pressure and the gradient energy factor under minimum pressure when initially pressurized.

[0074] In this embodiment, the software used for both the initial pressure simulation calculation step and the pressurization simulation calculation step is ANSYS software.

[0075] In this embodiment, the gradient energy factor is represented by S(K), the magnetic field strength gradient curve is represented by K, and the maximum value of the magnetic field strength gradient curve is represented by K. max The axial gradient is represented by K. x The radial gradient is represented by K. y The axial year-on-year growth rate is expressed in ν. x The radial year-on-year growth rate is expressed in ν. y express.

[0076] In one possible embodiment, the method further includes simulation calculation of the characteristic parameters of the weak magnetic signal of the pipe weld under the action of internal pipe pressure, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0077] The initial pressure simulation calculation steps, taking X70 pipeline steel in actual engineering applications as the research object, establish a magnetic model. The specific steps are as follows: A mechanical analysis model of the weld is established in a rectangular coordinate system (x, y, z). The pipeline material used in this paper is X70 pipeline steel, which is widely used in engineering. The pipeline length is set to 1000mm, the outer diameter to be 1219mm, the thickness to be 16mm, the weld width to be 20mm, the welding line speed V to be 1mm / s, the welding voltage U to be 36V, the welding current I to be 32A, and the welding thermal efficiency η to be 0.75. Figure 2 As shown, the stress distribution at the pipe weld is uneven, with stress concentration, and gradually weakens towards both sides.

[0078] In the pressure simulation calculation step, internal pressures of 0–3 MPa were applied to the pipeline, and simulations were performed every 0.5 MPa to obtain the changes in the weak magnetic signal at the weld, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the characteristic parameters of the weak magnetic signal will be analyzed below.

[0079] The variations in axial peak value and radial peak value are as follows: Figure 4 :from Figure 4 As can be seen, both the axial and radial peak values ​​increase linearly with increasing internal pressure. Furthermore, for every 0.5 MPa, the average change in axial peak value is 20, and the radial peak value... max The average change was 13.33.

[0080] Axial gradient K x and radial gradient K y like Figure 5 :from Figure 5 As can be seen from this, the axial gradient K x and radial gradient K y All of these gradually increase with increasing internal pressure.

[0081] Axial and radial K max like Figure 6 :from Figure 6 As can be seen from this, axial and radial K max Both increase linearly with increasing internal pressure. Furthermore, for every 0.5 MPa, the axial K... max The average change is 2.83, and the radial K... max The average change was 1.95.

[0082] The steps for calculating the gradient energy factor are as follows: the variation curves of the gradient energy factor S(K) for the axial magnetic signal and the gradient energy factor S(K) for the radial magnetic signal as a function of internal pressure are shown below. Figure 7 As can be seen from the figure, the gradient energy factor S(K) also gradually increases with the increase of internal pressure. Furthermore, for every 0.5 MPa, the average axial change of the gradient energy factor S(K) is 77.5, and the average radial change is 36.7.

[0083] Introducing the year-on-year growth rate step, the gradient energy factor S(K) axial year-on-year growth rate ν x The radial year-on-year growth rate of the gradient energy factor S(K) is 106.67%. y The radial year-on-year growth rate ν of the gradient energy factor S(K) is 109.43%. y Year-on-year growth rate ν of axial direction x The 3.24% increase indicates that the radial magnetic signal at the weld of ferromagnetic materials is more sensitive to stress changes. In comparison, the change in energy factor S(K) is greater than that of K and K0 in terms of both magnitude and average variation. max The changes are large and obvious, and can more intuitively reflect the changes in magnetic signals. Therefore, the gradient energy factor S(K) can be used as a new characteristic parameter of weak magnetic signal that comprehensively reflects the damage state at the weld.

[0084] In one possible embodiment, the simulation calculation of the characteristic values ​​of the weak magnetic signal of the pipe weld crack under internal pressure is also included, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0085] The initial pressure simulation calculation steps involve creating a crack on the above weld mechanical simulation model, with dimensions of 2mm * 0.95mm * 1mm (length * width * depth), and then performing magnetic simulation calculations. The results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown, the weak magnetic signal of the weld crack exhibits a maximum value in the axial direction and two sinusoidal fluctuations in the radial direction. By comparing the magnetic signal characteristics with the weld magnetic signal, the presence of a crack in the weld can be clearly identified.

[0086] The pressure simulation calculation steps involve applying internal pressures of 0–3 MPa to the pipeline, with simulations performed every 0.5 MPa. The influence of internal pressure on the weak magnetic field at the weld crack is analyzed, and the results of the weak magnetic field changes at the weld crack are as follows: Figure 9 Next, we will analyze the characteristic parameters of the weak magnetic signal.

[0087] The variations in axial peak value and radial peak value are as follows: Figure 10 :from Figure 10 As can be seen, both the axial peak value and the radial peak value increase linearly with increasing internal pressure. Furthermore, for every 0.5 MPa, the average change in axial peak value is 83.33, and the average change in radial peak value is 137.5.

[0088] Axial gradient K x and radial gradient K y like Figure 11 ,from Figure 11 As can be seen, both the axial and radial gradients K gradually increase with the increase of internal pressure.

[0089] Axial and radial K max like Figure 12 :from Figure 12 As can be seen from this, K max The axial K gradually increases with the increase of internal pressure in the pipeline. Furthermore, for every 0.5 MPa, the axial K... max The average change is 12.5, and the radial K... max The average change was 23.3.

[0090] The steps for calculating the gradient energy factor are as follows: the variation curves of the gradient energy factor S(K) for the axial magnetic signal and the gradient energy factor S(K) for the radial magnetic signal as a function of internal pressure are shown below. Figure 13 ,from Figure 13 As can be seen, both the axial and radial gradient energy factors S(K) gradually increase with the increase of internal pressure. Furthermore, for every 0.5 MPa, the average axial change in gradient energy factor S(K) is 125, and the average radial change is 340.

[0091] Introducing the year-on-year growth rate step, the variation curves of S(K) for the axial magnetic signal and the gradient energy factor S(K) for the radial magnetic signal as a function of internal pressure are as follows: Figure 11 : Gradient energy factor S(K) axial year-on-year growth rate ν x The radial year-on-year growth rate of the gradient energy factor S(K) was 59.57%; y The rate was 61.54%. The axial growth rate was 1.97% higher than the radial growth rate, indicating that the radial magnetic signal at the weld crack of ferromagnetic materials is more sensitive to stress changes.

[0092] The comparison revealed that the change in gradient energy factor S(K) was greater than that of K and K'. max The variation range is more significant, meaning that the gradient energy factor S(K) can replace the gradient to analyze the stress state at the weld.

[0093] In one possible embodiment, the simulation calculation of the characteristic values ​​of the weak magnetic signal of the crack in the pipeline base material under pressure is also included, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0094] The initial pressure simulation calculation steps involve creating a crack with dimensions of 2mm x 0.95mm x 1mm (length x width x depth) on the pipe base material (with parameters consistent with the weld base material). The weak magnetic simulation results are as follows: Figure 14 As shown, the axial weak magnetic signal at the crack in the pipe base material has a maximum value, and the radial signal has sinusoidal fluctuation characteristics, which are typical characteristics of stress concentration areas, confirming the feasibility of using the weak magnetic internal detection method to detect cracks in the pipe base material.

[0095] The pressure simulation calculation steps involve applying internal pressures of 0–3 MPa to the pipeline, with simulations performed every 0.5 MPa. The influence of internal pressure on the weak magnetic field at the weld crack is analyzed, and the results of the weak magnetic field changes at the weld crack are as follows: Figure 15 Next, we will analyze the characteristic parameters of the weak magnetic signal.

[0096] The variations in axial peak value and radial peak value are as follows: Figure 16 ,from Figure 16 As can be seen, both the axial peak value and the radial peak value increase linearly with increasing internal pressure. Furthermore, for every 0.5 MPa, the average change in axial peak value is 17.67, and the average change in radial peak value is 52.17.

[0097] Axial gradient K x and radial gradient K y like Figure 17 ,from Figure 17 As can be seen from this, the axial gradient K x and radial gradient K y All of these gradually increase with increasing internal pressure.

[0098] K max Axial and radial, such as Figure 18 ,from Figure 18 As can be seen from this, K max The axial and radial forces gradually increase with increasing internal pressure in the pipe. Furthermore, for every 0.5 MPa, K... max The average axial variation is 5.83, K max The radial mean variation is 3.5.

[0099] The steps for calculating the gradient energy factor are as follows: the variation curves of the gradient energy factor S(K) for the axial magnetic signal and the gradient energy factor S(K) for the radial magnetic signal as a function of internal pressure are shown below. Figure 19 :from Figure 19 As can be seen, both the axial and radial gradient energy factors S(K) increase linearly with the increase of internal pressure.
