[0054] Referring to Figure 1 , a medium-frequency pipe bending process management system, which comprises:

[0055] The finite element analysis module 101 is configured to configure a three-dimensional model and a finite element model of medium-frequency induction local heating pipe bending, complete the simulated pipe bending based on the finite element model, obtain the simulated experimental data, and analyze and optimize to obtain the pipe bending process parameters for production trial;

[0059] The parameter tuning module 105 is configured to optimize the bending parameters of the bent pipe based on the abnormal state until the real-time data and the model prediction result are normal.

[0060] The data processing module 106 is configured to store the finite element analysis model, the simulation experiment data, the trial production experiment data, and the prediction model.

[0061] The finite element analysis module, the data acquisition module, the data transmission module, the model generation module, and the parameter tuning module are respectively connected to the data processing module.

[0062] The implementation principle of the present invention is as follows: First, a finite element model of the intermediate frequency bent pipe is established through the finite element analysis module. Based on the finite element model, a simulated bent pipe is completed to obtain simulation experiment data. The bending process parameters are analyzed and optimized and used for production trial. Then, during the trial production process, the reference state of the bent pipe is evaluated through the data acquisition module to obtain the experiment data of the bent pipe in the healthy and abnormal states. The prediction model is strengthened through the model generation module using the simulation experiment data and the trial production experiment data as samples. Finally, during the actual bending process, real-time data is obtained through the data acquisition module and predicted using the trained prediction model to determine whether an abnormality occurs during the bending process. At the same time, based on the abnormal state, the parameter tuning module is used to optimize the bending parameters of the bent pipe until the real-time data and the model prediction result are normal.

The present invention implements intelligent management of the intermediate frequency bent pipe, simplifies the process research and development process, realizes online monitoring of the bending process and automatic optimization in case of abnormalities, and improves the quality and production efficiency of the bent pipe products.

[0063] Referring to Figures 2 - 3 , the management method of the intermediate frequency bent pipe process management system described above, the method includes the following steps:

[0064] Step 1: Establish a three-dimensional model and a finite element model of the intermediate frequency induction local heating bent pipe.

[0065] As one of the implementation manners, the specific steps of establishing a three-dimensional model and a finite element model of the intermediate frequency induction local heating bent pipe include:

[0066] Digital modeling is carried out based on the geometric characteristics of the pipe, the pipe pushing device, the intermediate frequency induction local heating device, the clamping and rotating device, and the guide roller device, that is, the modeling design of components and parts is completed using an interactive drawing system CAD drawing software (such as Pro / ENGINEER, Unigraphics, SolidEdge, SolidWorks, IDEAS, Bentley, AutoCAD, etc.), and a three-dimensional model of the intermediate frequency induction local heating elbow pipe is obtained.

[0067] Based on the three-dimensional model of the intermediate frequency induction local heating elbow pipe, finite element analysis is completed. First, determine the geometric parameters and material properties of the elbow pipe, that is, clarify the geometric parameter characteristics such as the diameter, wall thickness, bending radius, and bending angle of the elbow pipe, and determine the physical properties such as the elastic modulus, yield strength, and Poisson's ratio of the elbow pipe material. Select a suitable finite element software for structural analysis (such as ANSYS, Abaqus, SolidWorks Simulation, etc.). Import the three-dimensional model created by the CAD drawing software into the finite element software, and select a suitable mesh type and size according to the geometric characteristics and calculation accuracy requirements of the elbow pipe, and assign the previously determined material properties to the model.

[0068] As another implementation method, directly use a finite element software integrated with CAD drawing modeling technology (such as ADINA, etc.) to complete the creation of the three-dimensional model and the finite element model within the software;

[0069] Step 2: Based on the finite element model, complete the simulation of the elbow pipe to obtain simulation experiment data;

[0070] The simulation experiment data are multiple spatial geometric feature points and multiple temperature field feature points of the elbow pipe changing with time, as well as the operating stress of the clamping and rotating device and the guide roller device changing with time. The specific steps to obtain the relevant multiple feature points and operating stress include:

[0071] According to the elbow pipe process, set appropriate boundary conditions, such as fixed constraints, symmetry constraints, etc., apply loads, simulate the temperature field and force field during intermediate frequency heating and bending, and at the same time collect the real-time data of the three-dimensional space and three-dimensional temperature field of the elbow pipe during heating and bending, as well as the operating stress of the clamping and rotating device and the guide roller device changing with time. Extract multiple feature points from the three-dimensional space model and the three-dimensional temperature field model. The relevant feature points can fully characterize the three-dimensional space model and the three-dimensional temperature field model of the elbow pipe.

[0072] Step 3: Analyze the simulation experiment data and optimize to obtain the elbow pipe process parameters;

[0073] According to the results of the simulation experiment data, adjust the process parameters of the bent pipe, such as the outer wall temperature, temperature gradient, thermal deformation width, pushing speed, etc. Repeat the simulation analysis to verify whether the optimized process parameters are effective. Finally, obtain the process parameters of the bent pipe. At the same time, perform spline fitting on the data obtained by finite element analysis of the intermediate frequency induction local heating bent pipe to obtain the influence laws of process parameters such as outer wall temperature, temperature gradient, thermal deformation width, and pushing speed on the quality data of the bent pipe process.

[0074] Step Four: Apply the optimized process parameters to production trial;

[0075] Apply the optimized process parameters to actual production trial, compare the simulation results and the actual trial results, evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the process parameters, and further adjust and optimize the process parameters according to the actual trial results. At the same time, continuously collect simulation experiment data during the process.

[0076] Step Five: Evaluate the reference state of the bent pipe during the trial;

[0077] Use non-destructive testing methods such as ultrasonic and magnetic particle testing to evaluate whether there are defects such as cracks and inclusions on the surface and inside of the bent pipe. Use an ultrasonic thickness gauge to perform wall thickness inspection on the outer arc surface, inner arc surface, and neutral layer center line of the bent pipe, and use measuring tools such as external calipers, snap gauges, and straight rulers to measure to obtain data such as the outer diameter, bending angle, and bending radius of the bent pipe.

[0078] Input the collected data into a computer or special software for processing. According to the preset conversion formula, calculate real-time quality data such as the bending angle deviation, thinning rate, and out-of-roundness of the bent pipe, and compare it with the standard requirements to evaluate whether the reference state of the bent pipe is a healthy state or an abnormal state.

[0079] Step Six: Obtain the experimental data of the bent pipe in the healthy state and the experimental data of the bent pipe in the abnormal state;

[0080] Set up more than two high-speed cameras with thermal imaging functions to obtain high-definition images of the bent pipe. According to the spatial positions of the bent pipe, the pipe bender, and the cameras, etc., perform 3D construction in combination with the high-definition images, establish the mapping relationship between the image coordinates and the spatial coordinates of the measurement area, and obtain the 3D spatial model and 3D temperature field model of the bent pipe through the feature matching algorithm. The relevant feature points can fully represent the 3D spatial model and 3D temperature field model of the bent pipe. Add stress acquisition devices to the chucks of the clamping and rotating device and the guide wheels of the guide roller device respectively to obtain the operating stresses of the clamping and rotating device and the guide roller device under the operating state. When the reference state of the bent pipe evaluated in step five is the healthy state, the relevant feature point data and operating stress are the experimental data of the bent pipe in the healthy state. Preferably, multiple feature points are simultaneously assisted and verified and corrected by methods such as laser ranging and contact temperature measurement, and an adaptive algorithm is added to reduce the interference of changes in light, water vapor, etc. on the feature point recognition until the recognized feature points meet the tracking requirements.

[0081] According to the relevant method steps in step six, when the reference state of the bent pipe evaluated in step five is the abnormal state, the relevant feature point data and operating stress are the experimental data of the bent pipe in the abnormal state. Preferably, multiple feature points are simultaneously assisted and verified and corrected by methods such as laser ranging and contact temperature measurement, and an adaptive algorithm is added to reduce the interference of changes in light, water vapor, etc. on the feature point recognition until the recognized feature points meet the tracking requirements;

[0082] Step seven: Use the simulation experiment data, the experimental data in the healthy state, and the experimental data in the abnormal state as samples, and divide them into three parts (training set, test set, validation set) for strengthening the prediction model;

[0083] First, collect and organize all available data, including simulation experiment data, experimental data in the healthy state, and experimental data in the abnormal state, and ensure that the data has been preprocessed, including steps such as cleaning, normalization, and label encoding, so that the model can better learn the features in the data. Subsequently, divide the data set into a training set (Training Set), a test set (Test Set), and a validation set (Validation Set) to effectively train and evaluate the performance of the strengthening prediction model. When dividing the data set, it is necessary to ensure that the time sequences of the training set, the validation set, and the test set do not overlap. Use the training set to train the model, and use the validation set to evaluate the performance of the model during the training process. According to the performance on the validation set, adjust the hyperparameters and structure of the model. When the performance of the model on the validation set reaches the best, use the test set to finally evaluate the model to obtain the performance of the model in actual applications.

[0084] At the same time, the prediction model aims at multi-feature point recognition, and the weight of the experimental data in the trial production process is greater than the weight of the simulation experiment data during the model training process.

[0085] Step Eight: Obtain the real-time data during the actual bending process and use the prediction model trained in Step Seven to predict the real-time data.

[0086] According to the relevant method steps in Step Six, obtain the real-time data during the actual bending process, that is, the real-time data of multiple spatial geometric feature points and multiple temperature field feature points of the bent pipe, as well as the operating stress of the clamping and rotating device and the guide roller device changing with time. First, preprocess the real-time data and input it into the prediction model trained in Step Seven for prediction. The model will generate a prediction result based on the input data, which includes possible quality problems during the bent pipe bending process.

[0087] Step Nine: If the result of predicting the real-time data by the model is normal, it indicates that the bending state of the bent pipe is normal; if the result of predicting the real-time data by the model is abnormal, it indicates that the bending state of the bent pipe is abnormal.

[0088] If the result of predicting the real-time data by the model is normal, this indeed indicates that under the current operating conditions and the bending state of the bent pipe, the state of the bent pipe is normal and no unexpected problems or deviations have occurred.

[0089] If the result of predicting the real-time data by the model is abnormal, this indeed indicates that under the current operating conditions and the bending state of the bent pipe, the state of the bent pipe is abnormal and certain problems or deviations have occurred during the bending process.

[0090] Step Ten: Based on the abnormal state, optimize the bending parameters of the bent pipe until the result of predicting the real-time data by the model is normal.

[0091] If the result of predicting the real-time data by the model is abnormal, combine the influence law of the relevant parameters obtained by finite element analysis in Step Six on the bending quality of the bent pipe, take corresponding countermeasures in a timely manner during the bending process of the bent pipe, and then execute Step Eight to obtain the real-time data during the actual bending process, and use the prediction model trained in Step Seven to predict the real-time data until the result of predicting the real-time data by the model is normal.
