Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to laser removal technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, equipment, and medium for cleaning ablation residues on metal surfaces based on laser removal technology. Background Technology

[0002] During equipment operation, the high-temperature, high-speed jet of propellant emitted by the engine causes severe ablation and high-speed gas erosion on the inner surface of the metal substrate supporting the engine (a coupled effect of erosion and scouring by condensed phase particles), with ablation being the primary form of damage. The ablation products offer no protection to the metal substrate, only affecting the engine's normal operation and hindering the successful completion of production tasks. Furthermore, over time, they can cause corrosion and other harmful effects on the inner wall. Therefore, removing the ablation material is essential.

[0003] Currently, the cleaning and maintenance of ablation materials is extremely complex. Achieving good cleaning results is time-consuming and labor-intensive, primarily relying on traditional methods such as sandblasting and angle grinders for manual mechanized cleaning. These methods, involving scraping, wiping, brushing, and sandblasting to remove surface contaminants, require a considerable amount of time, hindering the rapid and continuous use of the metal substrate and impacting equipment operating efficiency. Furthermore, these methods suffer from drawbacks such as demanding skilled operators, numerous subsequent processing steps, significant thinning of weld seam walls after repeated grinding, high labor intensity, and poor cleaning consistency, severely affecting the subsequent use of the metal substrate.

[0066] In this disclosure, a method for cleaning ablation residues on metal surfaces based on laser removal technology is first provided; see reference. Figure 1 As shown, the method for cleaning ablation residues on a metal surface based on laser removal technology may include the following steps:

[0067] Step S110: Based on the working environment of the metal substrate, a metal substrate model is generated by constructing a simulation model of the metal substrate.

[0068] Step S120: Based on the metal substrate model, a simulation model of the ablation motion is generated by simulating the process of flame ablation of the metal substrate surface.

[0069] Step S130: Based on the ablation motion simulation model, the generation mechanism of ablation residue is analyzed to generate ablation mechanism analysis information.

[0070] Step S140: Based on the ablation mechanism analysis information, a laser cleaning path is generated by setting the laser system parameters. The laser probe then completes the cleaning of ablation residues on the metal surface of the metal substrate through the laser cleaning path.

[0071] The following will further describe a method for cleaning metal surface ablation residues based on laser removal technology in an embodiment of this disclosure.

[0072] In step S110, a metal substrate model can be generated by constructing a simulation model of the metal substrate based on the working environment of the metal substrate.

[0073] In some optional embodiments of this example, firstly, the metal substrate can be classified into three types according to its support and guidance form: adapter type, guide rail type, and hybrid type. Depending on the different support forms of the engine, different support and guidance forms can be selected as the guidance form parameter information of the metal substrate. Depending on the different usage requirements, the shape parameter information of the metal substrate is determined by selecting different shapes such as rectangle, cylinder, rhombus, and octagon. The material parameter information of the metal substrate is determined according to the heat resistance requirements of the metal substrate material in different working environments. The size parameter information of the metal substrate is determined according to the size of the engine and the size of the working site in different environments.

[0074] Subsequently, based on the guidance form parameters, shape parameters, material parameters, and dimensional parameters, the metal substrate model was simulated and constructed using Ansys Fluent software. Furthermore, this metal substrate model can be used to simulate the ablation process of the engine's exhaust plume on the inner wall of the metal substrate during launch.

[0075] In step S120, an ablation motion simulation model can be generated based on the metal substrate model by simulating the process of flame ablation of the metal substrate surface.

[0076] In some alternative embodiments of this example, after the solid rocket motor ignites, the propellant grain is ignited in the combustion chamber, generating a large amount of gaseous flame while producing a violent chemical reaction. This high-temperature, high-pressure gas is accelerated through a Laval nozzle and ejected from the engine tail at near-sonic speeds onto the metal substrate. Therefore, by simulating and modeling the process of the gaseous flame ejecting onto the metal substrate, the ablation impact properties of the metal substrate can be comprehensively analyzed, thus providing theoretical support for the subsequent development of laser cleaning schemes.

[0077] When constructing an ablation motion simulation model, the first step is to define its computational domain. For example, if a closed, symmetrical metal substrate model is chosen to support the engine, half the size of this symmetrical metal substrate model can be used as the computational domain for the flow field because it is a symmetrical structure.

[0078] In a specific example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the length of the initial flow field computation domain can be set to 50 meters, the width to 15 meters, and the height to 10 meters.

[0079] Subsequently, to describe the behavior of the physical processes at the computational domain boundaries, the boundary conditions of this initial flow field computational domain were also set, forming a complete ablation flow field computational domain. This includes:

[0080] Constrain the boundary conditions for imports to generate import boundary conditions; constrain the boundary conditions for the metal wall to generate metal wall boundary conditions; constrain the boundary conditions for exports to generate export boundary conditions.

[0081] Specifically, the inlet total pressure can be set to 8 MPa, the inlet temperature to 3500 K, the metal wall to be insulated and non-slip, and the pressure outlet boundary P = 1 standard atmosphere.

[0082] In some alternative embodiments of this example, based on the constructed ablation flow field computational domain, the flow field motion characteristics data of the gas in the closed symmetric metal substrate model are analyzed by constructing a gas flow field model.

[0083] In a specific example, after the engine begins its box-like motion, the high-pressure combustion gas is accelerated through the Laval nozzle to form a high-speed jet, which then collides with and is reflected by the inner wall of the metal substrate, becoming an oblique shock wave. Furthermore, as the jet propagates downstream, its direction of motion is almost parallel to the box wall. For example... Figures 3-4 As shown, the trends of gas velocity and temperature near the inner wall of the metal substrate are opposite; the temperature is lower where the velocity is higher, and higher where the velocity is lower. During material ablation, the gas temperature and gas velocity correspond to the thermal effect and impact damage of the gas on the metal substrate, respectively.

[0084] Therefore, by constructing a gas flow field model to simulate the jet trajectory, the jet environment on the inner wall surface of the metal substrate can be analyzed intuitively, thereby enabling the extraction of gas temperature and gas velocity data at different locations on the inner wall surface of the metal substrate.

[0085] Meanwhile, in order to comprehensively consider the maximum ablation effect of the jet on the material, the working condition with the highest speed and temperature can also be selected as the ablation basis (as shown in the figure, in this example, the highest temperature near the inner wall of the metal substrate is 2450K (2176.85℃), and the highest speed is 1700m / s).

[0086] Next, the trajectories of agglomerated particles in solid propellant need to be analyzed. We first assume a normal particle size distribution in the solid propellant, and then generate particle characteristic data containing multiple characteristic sizes of the normal distribution based on the distribution range.

[0087] Based on the heat exchange between particles and gas, the particle characteristic data is then introduced into the gas flow field model to improve the ablation motion simulation model, which is then attributed to the behavior of high-speed, high-temperature particles ablation and adhesion on the surface of a metal substrate under the impetus of gas.

[0088] In one specific example, a solid propellant with added aluminum powder is used as the engine's propellant.

[0089] Based on the normal distribution of agglomerated particle size, analysis of alumina particles of different sizes shows that the condensed phase velocity of small-sized particles increases faster than that of large-sized particles. Therefore, at the booster nozzle exit, the velocity of small-sized particles decreases more rapidly, easily generating turbulence in the airflow. While large-sized particles accelerate more slowly, they reach the metal substrate surface at a much faster rate.

[0090] Meanwhile, as the alumina particles move toward the surface of the metal substrate, heat exchange occurs between the particles and the gas, and the larger the surface area of ​​the alumina particles exchanging heat with the gas, the more heat is transferred from the particles to the gas.

[0091] Therefore, by approximating the ablation process of the engine flame on the metal substrate, a simulation model of the ablation motion of alumina particles and combustion gases on the metal substrate can be constructed. This provides theoretical support for analyzing the formation mechanism and composition of ablated materials on the metal substrate surface. Furthermore, it provides a strong theoretical basis for subsequent laser removal schemes.

[0092] In step S130, based on the ablation motion simulation model, the generation mechanism of ablation residue can be analyzed to generate ablation mechanism analysis information.

[0093] In some alternative embodiments of this example, the analysis of the ablation process using the above-described ablation motion simulation model reveals that the ablation problem occurring on the metal substrate surface can be attributed to the thermomechanical effect of the combustion gas on the metal substrate, and the ablation and adhesion behavior of high-temperature, high-speed particles on the inner surface of the metal substrate under the action of the combustion gas. Therefore, to obtain ablation mechanism analysis information regarding ablation residues, the ablation residues on the metal substrate surface can be analyzed from two aspects.

[0094] The first part analyzes the thermomechanical effects of the gas on the metal substrate, obtaining thermomechanical analysis information.

[0095] Thermal effects can cause localized melting, carbonization, or ablation of the substrate material surface. In more severe cases, thermal effects may also lead to thermal expansion, stress concentration, or microcracks in the substrate material, affecting its mechanical properties and structural integrity. Impact damage can cause cracks, peeling, or fragmentation on the substrate material surface. In more severe cases, it can cause extensive structural damage.

[0096] The second part analyzes the composition of the ablation residue formed after high-temperature and high-speed particles ablate and adhere to the metal substrate, and obtains compositional analysis information.

[0097] Taking solid propellants with added aluminum powder as an example, the solidified phase content in the combustion products can reach 30 wt%, while the alumina particles generated by the oxidation reaction account for 98 wt% of the solidified phase. The main component of the ablation residue at this time is alumina particles.

[0098] By integrating the aforementioned thermomechanical and compositional analysis information to derive the ablation mechanism analysis, the extent of damage to the metal substrate and the main components of the ablation residue on the substrate can be determined. This allows for the development of appropriate removal plans.

[0099] In step S140, based on the ablation mechanism analysis information, a laser cleaning path can be generated by setting the laser system parameters. The laser probe then completes the cleaning of ablation residues on the metal surface of the metal substrate through the laser cleaning path.

[0100] In some alternative embodiments of this example, when the metal substrate meets the removal requirements, the parameters of the laser removal system are set according to the physical properties of different residue components. These settings include parameters such as laser power, pulse frequency, number of removal passes, and duty cycle.

[0101] Furthermore, these parameters can be adjusted according to the actual laser removal process to ensure complete removal of ablation residues.

[0102] Preferably, only one parameter can be changed while keeping the others constant. Furthermore, the changed parameter should exhibit a slow increase or decrease trend. This ensures greater stability at the beginning and end of the laser's removal of ablation residues from the metal substrate, minimizing damage to the substrate.

[0103] In some alternative embodiments of this example, the cleaning operation of the laser probe on the metal substrate is controlled by setting the cleaning path of the laser probe according to the laser parameter information set above.

[0104] First, set an appropriate scanning width parameter (if the scanning width is set too small, the laser will ablate the substrate at the center of the unit scanning width; if the scanning width is set too large, the area at the edges of the unit scanning width that is not sufficiently cleared will be too large).

[0105] Next, set appropriate scanning speed parameters (if the scanning speed is set too fast, the ablation residue on the path will not be completely removed; if the scanning speed is set too slow, the metal substrate on the path will be over-removed).

[0106] Then, set an appropriate probe swing direction to solve the focusing problem caused by radial cleaning when the pipe or the cleaning surface is curved.

[0107] Finally, the laser probe is controlled to perform the cleaning operation on the metal substrate along the pre-set parameters. These parameters can be adjusted according to the actual laser cleaning process to ensure complete removal of any ablation residue. For example, after one axial cleaning cycle, a second radial cleaning can be performed on the edges of both sides of the scanning width unit.

[0108] In a specific example, such as Figures 5-6 As shown, based on the above ablation mechanism analysis information, the metal substrate of the example sample material is steel plate, and the ablation residue is alumina (according to the experiment, a 1500W laser has the highest removal efficiency for alumina).

[0109] First, set the laser power to 1500W, the scanning speed v / (mm / s) to a constant 15000, the pulse frequency f / kHz to a constant 50, the duty cycle η / % to the initial value of 100% and remain unchanged, the scanning width to 500mm, the number of scans to 1, and the swing direction to axial clearing.

[0110] Then, select a distance of 1m from the target to be removed, and begin removing the aluminum oxide from the steel surface at a 60° angle.

[0111] During the removal process, it is advisable to pause briefly to observe the removal progress. When a portion of the substrate (different from the ablated material) becomes visible, attention should be paid to avoid over-removal that could damage the steel substrate. If the exposed area is large, removal should be stopped, and the temperature of that area should be allowed to drop below 40°C before switching to mechanical removal or using a low-power laser (0.7kW-0.9kW) to remove the remaining ablated material, thus avoiding any adverse effects of the laser on the substrate.

[0112] This method, which primarily uses laser removal technology combined with traditional mechanical removal techniques, minimizes the impact of the laser on the substrate while reducing the difficulty of removal, shortening the removal time, and improving the removal efficiency. This allows used metal substrates to be maintained and repaired more quickly, avoiding the impact of ablation and improving overall efficiency.

[0113] It should be noted that although the steps of the method in this disclosure are described in a specific order in the accompanying drawings, this does not require or imply that the steps must be performed in that specific order, or that all the steps shown must be performed to achieve the desired result. Additional or alternative steps may be omitted, multiple steps may be combined into one step, and / or a step may be broken down into multiple steps.

[0114] Furthermore, in this example embodiment, a device for cleaning metal surface ablation residues based on laser removal technology is also provided. (Refer to...)
