Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the fields of aviation engineering technology and material science, and specifically is a novel super-hydrophobic ice suppression performance detection device. Background Art
[0002] In low-temperature environments, ice accumulation and adhesion pose serious challenges to many fields, such as aerospace, transportation, power transmission, and outdoor facilities. The formation of ice not only increases the weight and resistance of equipment, but may also affect the normal operation of the equipment and even lead to catastrophic consequences. Therefore, the development of materials with excellent ice suppression properties, especially superhydrophobic materials, has become one of the current research hotspots.
[0003] Due to its special surface micro-nano structure and low surface energy characteristics, superhydrophobic materials can effectively prevent water droplets from wetting and spreading on their surfaces, thereby inhibiting the formation and adhesion of ice layers. However, evaluating the ice suppression performance of superhydrophobic materials is not easy, and a set of scientific, accurate and efficient detection devices is required. In the in-depth exploration of the ice suppression performance of superhydrophobic materials in low-temperature environments, there are currently a series of technical challenges and limitations of existing detection methods. These challenges not only hinder the comprehensive understanding of material properties, but also limit the effective application of superhydrophobic materials in a wide range of fields. For example, the existing technical problems that exist in the use of current detection devices:
[0004] (1) Existing devices may not be able to provide intuitive and accurate quantitative data, and traditional methods may rely on subjective judgment, resulting in evaluation results that are not objective and accurate enough;
[0005] (2) Existing super-hydrophobic anti-icing performance testing devices often adopt a multi-step, multi-parameter testing process, which not only increases the difficulty of operation, but also may lead to the accumulation of errors during the test process; many existing testing devices still rely on manual operation and manual data recording, which not only increases the labor intensity, but also may introduce human errors;
[0006] (3) The ice suppression performance of super-hydrophobic materials may be affected by a variety of environmental factors such as ambient temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc. However, existing detection devices are often unable to fully simulate these actual environmental conditions, resulting in differences between test results and actual application scenarios. Therefore, the present invention proposes a new super-hydrophobic ice suppression performance detection device, which provides intuitive and quantitative evaluation data, simplifies the test process, reduces manual operations, and improves the authenticity of environmental simulation. Summary of the invention
[0007] The present invention proposes a novel super-hydrophobic ice suppression performance detection device, which can simulate a variety of climatic conditions and perform accurate and repeatable tests on super-hydrophobic material samples, while realizing automation and intelligence of the test process to improve test efficiency and data accuracy.
[0008] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the technical scheme of the present invention is as follows: a novel super-hydrophobic ice suppression performance detection device comprises a base, on which an experimental module, a control module, a test module and a control module are installed, the experimental module is used to place super-hydrophobic material samples, the control module is used to place ordinary material samples, and the test module is used to perform detection operations;
[0009] A groove is provided on the base, and the experimental module and the control module are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the groove. The experimental module and the control module have the same structure. The test module includes a support plate, which is fixedly connected to the base, and a support assembly is hinged on the support plate. Shear assemblies for ice layer adhesion detection are installed on both sides of the support assembly, and environmental simulation assemblies for simulating different climatic conditions and water discharge assemblies for dripping water onto the sample surface are installed on the shear assemblies.
[0010] The control module is connected to the shearing component, the environmental simulation component and the water release component by signals. The control module is used to start and stop the environmental simulation component and the water release component, and the control module can also collect and analyze the data of the shearing component in real time.
[0011] The following beneficial effects are achieved by adopting the above scheme:
[0012] 1. Accuracy and repeatability: By symmetrically placing the experimental module and the control module on both sides of the groove of the base and keeping the structures of the two identical, the impact of differences in experimental conditions on the results can be minimized, improving the accuracy and repeatability of the experiment. This design ensures that the super-hydrophobic material samples and ordinary material samples are tested under the same environmental conditions, making the experimental results more convincing.
[0013] 2. Versatility: The test module integrates support components, shear components, environmental simulation components and water release components, so that the device of the present invention can simulate a variety of climate conditions and perform ice formation time and ice adhesion tests. This versatility not only improves the comprehensiveness of the test, but also enables researchers to conduct in-depth research on the performance of superhydrophobic materials under different environmental conditions.
[0014] 3. Automation and intelligence: The control module is connected to the signals of each component, which realizes the automatic control of the test process and the real-time data collection and analysis. This not only reduces the labor intensity of researchers, but also improves the accuracy and efficiency of data collection. Through automatic control, the consistency and stability of test conditions can be ensured, thereby further improving the reliability of experimental results.
[0015] 4. High efficiency: Since the entire test process can be completed in one device, there is no need to frequently change equipment or adjust experimental conditions, which greatly improves the test efficiency. Researchers can obtain experimental results faster, thereby accelerating the research and development process of superhydrophobic materials' ice suppression properties.
[0016] 5. Easy to operate and maintain: The device has a reasonable structural design and the connections between the components are firm and reliable, so that operators can easily install, debug and maintain it. In addition, the intelligent design of the control module also makes the operation easier and more intuitive, reducing the requirements for the professional skills of the operator.
[0017] 6. Wide application: The device of the present invention is not only suitable for the ice suppression performance detection of super-hydrophobic materials, but can also be appropriately modified and expanded as needed for research and testing in other related fields. For example, the parameters of the environmental simulation component can be adjusted to simulate different climatic conditions, or the shear component can be replaced to meet the adhesion test requirements of different materials.
[0018] In summary, this new super-hydrophobic ice suppression performance detection device shows significant beneficial effects in terms of accuracy, versatility, automation and intelligence, high efficiency, easy operation and maintenance, and wide application.
[0019] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a first support rod, a second support rod and a pressure rod. The first support rod and the second support rod are respectively hinged at two ends of the support plate. The first support rod is hinged to one end of the pressure rod at one end away from the support plate, and the second support rod is hinged to one third of the pressure rod at one end away from the support plate. The pressure rod is hinged with a connecting piece, which is located between the first support rod and the second support rod, and both sides of the connecting piece are hinged to the shear assembly.
[0020] Beneficial Effects: The design of the pressure rod makes the force distribution between the first support rod and the second support rod more uniform, thereby improving the balance of the entire support assembly. This balance helps to reduce errors caused by vibration or instability when performing ice adhesion testing and improve the accuracy of the test. The connector is located between the first support rod and the second support rod and is hinged to the shear assembly. This design allows precise control of the position and angle of the shear assembly to ensure that the shear force can be accurately applied to the ice layer on the surface of the sample. This is crucial for measuring ice adhesion, as any slight deviation may lead to inaccurate test results. The stability and accuracy of the support assembly make the testing process smoother and more efficient. The operator can quickly adjust the position and angle of the shear assembly to adapt to different testing requirements. At the same time, the test efficiency is significantly improved due to the reduction of errors and repeated tests caused by unstable or improperly adjusted equipment.
[0021] Furthermore, the shearing assembly includes a connecting rod, one end of which is hinged to an end of the connecting piece away from the pressure rod, and the other end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a shearing knife. A pressure sensor is embedded in the side of the shearing knife away from the connecting rod, and the pressure sensor is connected to the control module signal. The control module is used to process and save the data collected by the pressure sensor in real time.
[0022] Beneficial effects: The pressure sensor is embedded on the side of the shear knife away from the connecting rod, and can monitor in real time the pressure (i.e., shear force) applied by the shear knife to the sample during the shearing process. This real-time monitoring capability enables researchers to accurately understand the mechanical properties during the shearing process, which is of great significance for evaluating the stability and durability of superhydrophobic materials under shearing. According to the real-time data of the pressure sensor, researchers can adjust the experimental conditions in time, such as shear speed, shear angle, or sample placement, to optimize the experimental process and obtain more accurate experimental results. This dynamic adjustment capability helps to reveal the differences in the ice suppression performance of superhydrophobic materials under different conditions. By real-time monitoring and analysis of the shear force during the shearing process, researchers can have a deeper understanding of the mechanical behavior and failure mechanism of superhydrophobic materials under shearing. These research results help to promote scientific research progress in related fields and provide theoretical support for the optimization design and application of superhydrophobic materials.
[0023] Furthermore, the water discharge assembly includes a fixed shell, which is detachably connected to the connecting rod, a power part is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed shell, a push plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the power part, and a water storage cylinder is detachably connected to the side of the fixed shell away from the power part, the water storage cylinder is a piston structure, the power part is connected to the control module signal, the control module is used to control the start or shutdown of the power part, and the controller can adjust the power of the power part according to preset data.
[0024] Beneficial effects: By starting, shutting down and adjusting the power of the power parts through the control module, the movement of the piston in the water storage cylinder can be precisely controlled, thereby controlling the amount of water droplets dripping onto the surface of the sample each time. This precise control is crucial for studying the effects of different amounts of water droplets on ice formation and adhesion, and helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of the experiment. The signal connection between the power parts and the control module realizes the automated operation of water droplet release without manual operation, which reduces the labor intensity of the experimenters and improves the efficiency of the experiment. At the same time, automated operation also reduces errors caused by human factors, making the experimental results more stable and reliable. The control module can record parameters such as the time, amount and power of the power parts of each dripping operation, which facilitates the analysis and tracing of experimental data. This helps researchers to deeply understand the mechanism of the influence of water droplets on ice formation and adhesion, and provides a basis for subsequent experimental design and optimization.
[0025] Furthermore, the environmental simulation components include a wind generator, an air pressure generator, a light generator, a humidity controller and a temperature regulator. The wind generator, the air pressure generator, the humidity controller and the temperature regulator are all embedded in the support plate, and the light generator is embedded in the connecting rod. The control modules are connected to the wind generator, the air pressure generator, the light generator, the humidity controller and the temperature regulator signals. The control modules control and adjust the data of the wind generator, the air pressure generator, the light generator, the humidity controller and the temperature regulator according to the experimental requirements.
[0026] Beneficial effects: By simulating multiple environmental parameters such as wind, air pressure, light, humidity and temperature at the same time, the environmental simulation component can fully and accurately reproduce the complex environmental conditions in nature. This is crucial for studying the ice suppression performance of superhydrophobic materials under different climatic conditions, and helps to obtain more realistic experimental results. The control module can accurately control the specific values of each environmental parameter according to experimental requirements, such as wind speed, air pressure, light intensity, humidity range and temperature range. This precise control reduces the uncertainty factors in the experimental process and improves the accuracy and reliability of experimental data. Through experimental tests under different environmental conditions, researchers can have a deeper understanding of the performance characteristics and ice suppression mechanism of superhydrophobic materials, and provide strong support for scientific research progress in related fields.
[0027] Furthermore, the experimental module includes a base plate, which is fixedly connected in a groove of the base. The base plate is a hollow structure. A cooler is installed inside the base plate. A fixed component is installed at the bottom of the base plate. The control module is connected to the cooler signal. The control module is used to control the opening and closing of the cooler according to experimental requirements and can adjust the power.
[0028] Beneficial effects: The cooler installed inside the base plate allows the control module to precisely control its opening and closing, and can adjust the power according to the experimental needs. This design ensures that the experimental module can quickly and stably reduce the sample temperature to the preset value, thereby simulating the ice suppression performance test conditions in a low-temperature environment. Accurate temperature control is crucial for studying the ice suppression effect of superhydrophobic materials at different temperatures, which helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of the experiment. The design of the hollow structure not only provides space for the installation of the cooler, but also helps to reduce the impact of the external environment on the internal temperature of the experimental module and maintain the stability of the experimental environment. In addition, the addition of fixed components further enhances the stability of the sample during the experiment and prevents experimental errors caused by sample movement or shaking.
[0029] Furthermore, the fixing component includes a guard plate, a plurality of slide grooves are opened on the top of the bottom plate, the slide grooves are cross-distributed and fixedly connected with protrusions at the intersections, the protrusions are fixedly connected with a plurality of springs, the ends of the springs away from the slide grooves are fixedly connected with the guard plate, and the guard plate and the slide grooves are slidably matched.
[0030] Beneficial effects: The guard plate is connected to the slide groove on the bottom plate through a spring. This design allows the guard plate to have a certain buffering and adaptability when subjected to external forces. When the sample is placed on the bottom plate, the guard plate can fit the sample surface tightly to prevent the sample from moving or shaking during the experiment. This stable fixing method helps to reduce experimental errors and improve the accuracy of experimental results. Since the guard plate is connected to the slide groove through a spring, the position and angle of the guard plate can be fine-tuned according to the size and shape of the sample. This design enables the experimental module to adapt to superhydrophobic material samples of different specifications and shapes, improving the versatility and flexibility of the device.
[0031] Furthermore, a weight sensor is embedded in the top of the bottom plate, and the weight sensor is connected to the control module signal. The control module is used to collect and analyze real-time data of the weight sensor.
[0032] Beneficial effects: The weight sensor can monitor the weight change of the sample placed on the bottom plate in real time and accurately. This is of great significance for studying key parameters such as the weight change of superhydrophobic materials during the freezing process, the thickness of the ice layer, and the adhesion between the ice layer and the sample. Through real-time monitoring, researchers can more intuitively understand the ice suppression effect of superhydrophobic materials in low-temperature environments. The control module collects and analyzes the real-time data of the weight sensor to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the experimental data. Compared with traditional manual measurement methods, automated data collection reduces human errors and improves the accuracy and repeatability of data. This is particularly important for quantitative analysis in scientific research and product development.
[0033] Furthermore, it also includes a report generation module, which is connected to the control module signal. The report generation module is used to collect data from the shear component, the environmental simulation component, the water release component, the temperature regulator and the weight sensor, and use a preset algorithm to process the data, extract key performance indicators, automatically generate an ice suppression performance evaluation report, and intuitively display it in the form of charts or curves.
[0034] Beneficial effects: The report generation module can automatically collect data from various components (such as shear components, environmental simulation components, water release components, temperature regulators, and weight sensors), avoiding the tediousness and error-proneness of manual data collection and processing. At the same time, the data is processed using a preset algorithm to quickly and accurately extract key performance indicators, greatly improving the efficiency of data processing and analysis. Automated data processing reduces human intervention and the risk of data errors and deviations, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of evaluation reports. This is crucial for scientific research, product development, and quality control, and helps ensure the objectivity and credibility of experimental results. The report generation module intuitively displays the ice suppression performance evaluation results in the form of charts or curves, allowing experimenters to more clearly understand the ice suppression effect of superhydrophobic materials and their changing trends. This visual display method helps experimenters quickly capture key information and conduct more in-depth analysis and discussion.
[0035] Furthermore, it also includes an early warning module, which monitors the operating status of the environmental simulation component, the water discharge component, the cooler and the shear component in real time, and promptly discovers and warns of potential problems or abnormal situations. When an abnormal situation occurs during operation, an alarm is triggered to remind the operator to intervene in time.
[0036] Beneficial effects: The early warning module can promptly detect and warn of potential safety hazards, such as equipment overheating, abnormal water pressure, cooler failure, or loss of control of shear components. If these abnormal situations are not handled in time, they may cause damage to experimenters, equipment or samples. The introduction of the early warning module effectively reduces the safety risks during the experiment and protects the safety of experimenters and equipment. By monitoring the operating status of key components in real time, the early warning module can ensure that the experimental device operates in the best condition. Once an abnormal situation is detected, the early warning module will immediately trigger an alarm to remind the operator to intervene in time. This helps to avoid interruption or failure of the experiment and ensure the smooth progress of the experiment and the integrity of the experimental data. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0045] The following is further described in detail through specific implementation methods:
[0046] Embodiment 1, basically as attached Figures 1 to 4 As shown: a novel super-hydrophobic ice suppression performance detection device includes a base 1, on which are installed an experimental module 2, a control module 3, a test module and a control module. The experimental module 2 is used to place super-hydrophobic material samples, the control module 3 is used to place ordinary material samples, and the test module is used to perform detection operations.
[0047] A groove 101 is provided on the base 1, and the experimental module 2 and the control module 3 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the groove 101. The experimental module 2 and the control module 3 have the same structure; the experimental module 2 includes a bottom plate 201, which is fixedly connected in the groove 101 of the base 1, and the bottom plate 201 is a hollow structure. A cooler is installed inside the bottom plate 201, and a fixing component is installed at the bottom of the bottom plate 201. The fixing component includes a guard plate 205, and a plurality of slide grooves 202 are provided on the top of the bottom plate 201. The slide grooves 202 are cross-distributed and fixedly connected with a protrusion 203 at the intersection. The protrusion 203 is fixedly connected with a plurality of springs 204. The springs 204 are fixedly connected with the guard plate 205 at one end away from the slide groove 202, and the guard plate 205 is slidably matched with the slide groove 202. The control module is connected with the cooler signal, and the control module is used to control the opening and closing of the cooler according to the experimental requirements and can adjust the power. A weight sensor is embedded on the top of the bottom plate 201. The weight sensor is connected to the control module by signal. The control module is used to collect and analyze the real-time data of the weight sensor.
[0048] The test module includes a support plate 4, which is fixedly connected to the base 1. A support assembly is hinged on the support plate 4. The support assembly includes a first support rod 5, a second support rod 6 and a pressure rod 7. The first support rod 5 and the second support rod 6 are respectively hinged at both ends of the support plate 4. The end of the first support rod 5 away from the support plate 4 is hinged to the end of the pressure rod 7. The end of the second support rod 6 away from the support plate 4 is hinged to the third of the pressure rod 7. The pressure rod 7 is hinged with a connecting member 8. The connecting member 8 is located between the first support rod 5 and the second support rod 6. Both sides of the connecting member 8 are hinged to the shearing assembly. Shearing assemblies for ice layer adhesion detection are installed on both sides of the support assembly. The shearing assembly includes a connecting rod 9. One end of the connecting rod 9 is hinged to the end of the connecting member 8 away from the pressure rod 7. The other end of the connecting rod 9 is fixedly connected to a shearing knife 10. A pressure sensor is embedded in the shearing knife 10 away from the connecting rod 9. The pressure sensor is connected to the control module signal. The control module is used to process and save the data collected by the pressure sensor in real time.
[0049] The shearing components are all installed with environmental simulation components for simulating different climatic conditions and water discharge components for dripping water onto the sample surface; the environmental simulation components include a wind generator, an air pressure generator, a light generator, a humidity controller and a temperature regulator. In this embodiment, the wind generator is a small fan or a blower system, the air pressure generator is an air pressure pump or a vacuum pump system, the light generator is an LED light source array, and the temperature regulator is a thermocouple. The wind generator, the air pressure generator, the humidity controller and the temperature regulator are all embedded in the support plate 4, the light generator is embedded in the connecting rod 9, and the control module is connected to the wind generator, the air pressure generator, the light generator, the humidity controller and the temperature regulator by signal. The control module controls and adjusts the data of the wind generator, the air pressure generator, the light generator, the humidity controller and the temperature regulator according to the experimental requirements. The water discharge assembly includes a fixed shell 11, which is detachably connected to the connecting rod 9. A power part is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed shell 11. In this embodiment, the power part is a cylinder 12. A push plate 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the power part. A water storage cylinder 14 is detachably connected to the side of the fixed shell 11 away from the power part. The water storage cylinder 14 is a piston structure. The power part is connected to the control module signal. The control module is used to control the start or stop of the power part, and the controller can adjust the power of the power part according to preset data.
[0050] The specific implementation process is as follows: on the top of the bottom plate 201 of the experimental module 2, the super-hydrophobic material sample is placed in a suitable position through the slide 202 and the spring 204, and is gently fixed by the spring 204 and the guard plate 205 to prevent the sample from moving during the experiment. On the top of the bottom plate 201 of the control module 3, the ordinary material sample is placed in the same way. After the preparation work is completed, a shell is set outside the inspection device so that the detection experiment is carried out in a closed space, which helps to reduce the impact of the external environment (such as dust and impurities, etc.) on the test results, and also helps to ensure the stability and consistency of environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc. during the test, and improve the accuracy and reliability of the test.
[0051] According to the environmental conditions required by the experiment, the control module is used to set and adjust the environmental simulation components, including temperature, humidity, wind speed, air pressure and light intensity, etc. The dripping frequency and amount of the water discharge component are set by controlling the power of the moving cylinder 12. That is, when the water discharge component starts to work, the cylinder 12 pushes the push plate 13, so that the water in the water storage cylinder 14 directly drips on the surface of the experimental and control samples at a preset frequency.
[0052] A variety of dripping modes were introduced in the experiment. In particular, in addition to the automatic dripping by controlling the cylinder 12, a lever-type dripping mode realized by manually operating the pressure rod 7 was added. That is, during the dripping process of the water discharge component, the experimenter can also lift or press down the pressure rod 7, and form a fulcrum by hingedly connecting with the first support rod 5 and the second support rod 6 to form a lever structure. The pressure rod 7 drives the connecting rod 9 through the connecting piece 8, and the water discharge component on the connecting rod 9 moves up and down accordingly. During the movement, water drips, simulating the motion state of water dripping in the natural environment. The pressure rod 7 drives the connecting rod 9 and the water discharge component to move up and down through the lever structure, increasing the authenticity and randomness of the dripping.
[0053] The manually operated pressure rod 7 simulates the non-uniform and irregular dripping state of water in the natural environment due to wind, vibration or other external forces. This dynamic dripping mode is closer to the precipitation in nature, which helps to improve the ecological authenticity of the experimental results. By manually controlling the height, speed and direction of dripping, more random factors can be introduced, so that the dripping process is no longer completely preset and controllable, thereby increasing the universal applicability and reliability of the experimental results.
[0054] After dripping, according to the experimental requirements, the opening and closing and power of the cooler are set to control the temperature of the bottom plate 201 and promote the formation of the ice layer. Monitor the temperature changes on the surface of the sample to ensure that a stable and uniform ice layer is formed within the time required for the experiment. At the same time, the weight change during the freezing process and the freezing time are monitored in real time through the weight sensor at the bottom of the bottom plate 201. Different dripping modes (such as uniform automatic dripping and random manual dripping) will produce different ice formation processes and adhesion characteristics. The combination of these two modes can collect more extensive and diverse experimental data, providing a more comprehensive foundation for subsequent data analysis and model building. By comparing and analyzing the parameters such as the time of ice layer formation, weight change, adhesion, etc. under the two dripping modes, we can deeply understand the influence of the dripping mode on the characteristics of the ice layer, and then reveal the difference in the ice suppression performance of superhydrophobic materials under different precipitation conditions.
[0055] When the ice layer is formed, the shearing assembly is driven downward by lifting or pressing the pressure rod 7 again using the lever principle. The shearing blade 10 contacts the ice layer and applies shearing force until the ice layer is cut. At this time, the pressure sensor records the maximum force required during the shearing process, that is, the adhesion force between the ice layer and the sample surface.
[0056] Repeat the above steps several times to obtain reliable experimental data and perform statistical analysis. The control module automatically saves all data during the experiment, including environmental condition parameters, dripping frequency and amount, cooler settings, ice layer weight changes, freezing time, and adhesion data. Organize and analyze the experimental data, and compare the differences in freezing time and ice layer adhesion between superhydrophobic material samples and ordinary material samples under the same environmental conditions. Use statistical software to process the data, calculate statistical quantities such as mean and standard deviation, and perform significance tests. Based on the experimental results, evaluate the ice suppression performance of superhydrophobic materials.
[0057] Embodiment 2 is different from the above embodiments in that it also includes a report generation module, which is connected to the control module signal, and is used to collect data from the shearing component, the environmental simulation component, the water release component, the temperature regulator and the weight sensor, and use a preset algorithm to process the data, extract key performance indicators, automatically generate an ice suppression performance evaluation report, and intuitively display it in the form of charts or curves.
[0058] The specific implementation process is as follows: the report generation module maintains real-time signal connection with the control module, and receives real-time data from the shear component, environmental simulation component, water release component, temperature regulator, and weight sensor from the control module. These data include but are not limited to dripping frequency, water volume, ambient temperature, wind speed, air pressure, light intensity, ice layer weight change, freezing time, and shear force (i.e. ice layer adhesion). The collected data is first stored in the internal database of the report generation module or the external data warehouse to ensure the integrity and traceability of the data.
[0059] Clean the collected raw data to remove outliers, duplicate data or missing values to ensure data quality. Use preset algorithms to process and analyze the data. These algorithms may include statistical analysis (such as calculating mean, standard deviation, confidence interval, etc.), time series analysis (used to analyze dynamic changes in ice formation), and machine learning algorithms (used to identify patterns and trends in data). According to the experimental purpose and evaluation criteria, extract key performance indicators from the processed data, such as ice formation time, ice adhesion, and ice suppression efficiency.
[0060] A variety of report templates are preset to meet the needs of different users or different experimental scenarios. The template can contain basic experimental information (such as experimental date, sample type, environmental conditions, etc.), data processing results, key performance indicators, and comparative analysis. Automatically fill the processed data and extracted key performance indicators into the corresponding positions in the report template.

[0061] Embodiment 3 is different from the above embodiments in that it also includes an early warning module. The early warning module monitors the operating status of the environmental simulation component, the water discharge component, the cooler and the shearing component in real time to promptly discover and warn of potential problems or abnormal situations. When an abnormal situation occurs during operation, an alarm is triggered to remind the operator to intervene in time.
[0062] The specific implementation process is as follows: The early warning module can monitor the fluctuation of environmental parameters such as temperature, wind speed, air pressure, light intensity, etc. in real time, and whether the preset safety threshold is reached. Monitor the water level, dripping frequency and amount stability of the water storage cylinder 14, as well as the operating status of the cylinder 12 and the push plate 13. Monitor the temperature control accuracy, power output stability and whether there is a risk of overheating or overcooling of the cooler. Monitor the position, moving speed, shearing force of the shearing knife 10 and whether it encounters abnormal resistance.
[0063] Data from each monitoring point is collected in real time through sensors and controllers to ensure data accuracy and timeliness. The collected data is processed and analyzed to identify abnormal patterns in the data or values that exceed the preset range. Reasonable warning thresholds are set for each monitoring point, which are determined based on experimental requirements, equipment specifications, and safety standards. According to the set warning rules, logical judgment is made on the processed data to determine whether there are any abnormal conditions.
[0064] When an abnormal situation is detected, the early warning module immediately triggers an alarm and gives prompts through sound and light signals, display screens or control system interfaces, etc. The alarm information is sent to operators or relevant responsible persons through preset communication methods (such as SMS, email, system messages, etc.) to ensure that they can receive notifications in time.
[0065] After an alarm is triggered, the early warning module can provide preliminary operational guidance or troubleshooting suggestions to help operators quickly locate the problem and take appropriate measures. The time, cause, handling process and results of each alarm are recorded for subsequent analysis and improvement.
[0066] The above is only an embodiment of the present invention, and the common knowledge such as the known specific structure and / or characteristics in the scheme is not described in detail here. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several deformations and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present invention, and these should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention. These will not affect the effect of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection required by this application shall be based on the content of its claims, and the specific implementation methods and other records in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
