[0002] Electrodes are key components for ensuring reliable ignition in combustion devices such as piston internal combustion engines, gas turbines and boilers. Electrodes are subjected to severe thermal shock, high explosion pressure, high voltage and high temperature during operation. In order to meet the service life requirements, electrodes must have good anti-electrolytic corrosion performance. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the anti-electrolytic corrosion ability of electrodes of different materials and shapes through durability tests.

[0003] At present, most electrode durability tests use conventional ignition methods, with ignition energy usually between 40-80mJ and test time up to hundreds of hours, which leads to problems such as long R&D cycle, high R&D cost and low R&D efficiency.

The corrosion characteristics of the electrode under test are statistically analyzed, and the total volume V0 and V1 of the electrode before and after corrosion are calculated. The volume corrosion amount ΔV is obtained by subtracting the volume of the electrode before and after corrosion, so as to evaluate the electro-corrosion resistance of the electrode under test.

[0064] The specific steps are as follows:

[0071] S7, performing binarization processing on the collected image to obtain an electrode binary image;

[0072] S8, intercepting the binary image so that the image only contains the image of the electrode to be tested;

[0073] S9, measuring electrode length L;

[0074] S10, dividing the intercepted image of the electrode to be tested into n lines along the axial direction, and the line spacing after division is L / n;

[0076] S12. Calculate the volume V of each row. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0077]

[0078] Add the volume V of each row before and after corrosion to obtain the total volume V0 and V1 before and after corrosion;

[0079] S13, subtract the total volumes V0 and V1 before and after corrosion to obtain the volume corrosion amount ΔV of the electrode being measured.

[0080] Different embodiments are described below according to different setting parameters.

[0081] Embodiment 1:

[0082] A method for testing the electrolytic corrosion resistance of electrodes based on high-energy ignition is provided. The electrode position is fixed so that the ignition gap of the tested material of the platinum-ruthenium alloy containing 75% platinum is 1 mm. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an industrial imager was used to capture the electrode image before corrosion. Under the test conditions of ambient temperature 25°C and air pressure 101 kPa, the ignition frequency was set to 25 Hz, and a high-energy igniter was used to increase the ignition energy to 500 mJ. The electrode under test was ignited for 720,000 times (8 h).

[0083] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in the figure, after the ignition test, the electrode to be tested is photographed at the same distance using an industrial imager, and the images taken before and after the test are binarized to obtain a binary image. The binary image is intercepted so that only the electrode to be tested is included in the image. The electrode length L is measured, and the image is divided into n rows. The row spacing L / n after division is 0.016 mm. The diameter d of each row is counted. The diameter of the electrode before corrosion is (the diameter of each row d i The maximum value of the corrosion volume is 0.5 mm. The volume V of each row is calculated. The total volume V0 and V1 before and after corrosion are added respectively. Then the electrode volume corrosion volume ΔV = 0.06 mm is subtracted. 3 .

[0084] Comparative Example 1:

[0085] A method for detecting the electrolytic corrosion resistance of an electrode based on high-energy ignition is basically the same as Example 1, except that the ignition energy is 50 mJ, the number of ignitions is 18,000,000 times, the ignition time is 200 h, and the electrode volume corrosion amount ΔV=0.04 mm 3 .

[0086] Embodiment 2:

[0087] A method for detecting the electrolytic corrosion resistance of an electrode based on high-energy ignition is basically the same as Example 1, except that the electrode position is fixed so that the ignition gap of the tested material of the platinum-rhodium alloy containing 85% platinum is 0.8 mm, and under the test conditions of an ambient temperature of 500°C and a gas pressure of 2MPa, the ignition frequency is 20Hz, the ignition time is 10h, and the electrode volume corrosion amount ΔV=0.11mm is obtained. 3 .

[0088] Comparative Example 2:

[0089] A method for detecting the electrolytic corrosion resistance of an electrode based on high-energy ignition is basically the same as Example 2, except that the ignition energy is 40 mJ, the number of ignitions is 14,400,000 times, the ignition time is 200 h, and the electrode volume corrosion amount ΔV=0.08 mm 3 .

[0090] Embodiment 3:

[0091] A method for detecting the electrolytic corrosion resistance of an electrode based on high-energy ignition is basically the same as that of Example 1, except that the ignition energy is 900 mJ, the number of ignitions is 180,000 times, and the ignition time is 2 h. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the electrode volume corrosion amount ΔV = 0.2mm 3 .

[0092] Comparative Example 3:

[0093] A method for detecting the electrolytic corrosion resistance of an electrode based on high-energy ignition is basically the same as Example 3, except that the ignition energy is 30 mJ, the number of ignitions is 36,000,000 times, the ignition time is 400 h, and the electrode volume corrosion amount ΔV=0.02 mm 3 .

[0094] The high-energy ignition in the embodiment uses fewer ignition times and shorter ignition time, and can significantly increase the corrosion amount under different environmental conditions compared with the comparative example;

[0095] Compared with Embodiments 1 and 3, after increasing the ignition energy, the corrosion amount can be increased even if the ignition number and ignition time are reduced;

[0096] It can be seen that increasing the ignition energy can significantly shorten the evaluation time of electrode corrosion resistance.

[0097] The above description of the embodiments is to facilitate the understanding and use of the invention by those skilled in the art. It is obvious that those skilled in the art can easily make various modifications to these embodiments and apply the general principles described herein to other embodiments without creative work. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and improvements and modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the disclosure of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention should be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
