Description

Technical field:

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of underwater shaft frequency electric field of ships, and specifically relates to an on-board in-situ monitoring device for underwater shaft frequency electric field of ships, so that the ship can grasp its own underwater shaft frequency electric field suppression effect in-situ throughout its entire life cycle. Background technology:

[0002] With the improvement of ship vibration and noise reduction technology, non-acoustic signals such as underwater shaft frequency electric field have become an important signal source for underwater enemy detection and attack. The main mechanism of the generation of underwater shaft frequency electric field of ships is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the figure: During the rotation of the propeller, the grounding resistance between the shaft and the hull changes periodically, causing the corrosion or cathodic protection current flowing back to the hull through the shaft and bearings to be modulated. The fluctuation frequency of the modulated current is consistent with the shaft frequency, and the shaft frequency modulated current generates a shaft frequency electric field underwater.

[0003] The underwater shaft-frequency electric field of a ship has extremely low-frequency signal characteristics, with obvious frequency line spectrum characteristics of about 0.1-10Hz (related to the ship's propeller speed), and there are obvious frequency-multiplication signal characteristics, so it has the characteristics of long-distance propagation. Generally, the signal strength is on the order of μV. At the same time, the source of the ship's underwater shaft-frequency electric field is basically clear, and it has the characteristics of being detectable, measurable, and controllable. In the existing technology, the detection of the ship's underwater shaft-frequency electric field is mainly achieved through indirect measurement by a third-party measurement ship using an electric field measurement array deployed in the test sea area. The measured ship cannot immediately perceive the effect of its own shaft-frequency electric field control. As the service time of the ship increases and the service environment changes, the crew cannot adjust the working status of the electric field protection system in time, which may lead to the uncontrollable characteristics of the ship's underwater shaft-frequency electric field, seriously affecting its safety and reliability when performing tasks.

[0004] Chinese patent 201320328964.X discloses a low-noise ship shaft frequency electric field measurement system, including an electric field sensor, a signal conditioning circuit, and a data acquisition system connected in sequence. The electric field sensor includes four measuring electrodes and a reference electrode for measuring the potential difference between two points in three orthogonal directions in seawater. The four measuring electrodes include a first electrode located at the coordinate origin, a third electrode, a fourth electrode, and a second electrode located in three orthogonal directions of the coordinate origin and capable of forming electric field measurement electrode pairs in corresponding directions with the first electrode. The reference electrode includes a fifth electrode. The fifth electrode is a reference electrode, arranged near the third electrode, and connected to the ground wire of the signal conditioning circuit. The signal conditioning circuit includes a preamplifier circuit, a filter circuit, a secondary amplifier circuit, and a level conversion circuit connected in sequence between the electric field sensor and the data acquisition system. The preamplifier circuit mainly includes a low-noise instrumentation amplifier AD624. The filter circuit mainly includes an 8th-order low-pass active filter and a 2nd-order high-pass active filter arranged in series, both of which adopt a Butterworth structure. The principle of the shaft-frequency electric field measurement method was confirmed in laboratory-scale seawater environments using a scaled-down model driven by electrodes at a constant speed. However, the laboratory environment is different from actual engineering applications, and it is uncertain whether it can be applied in the complex environment of real seas and ships. In addition, the electric field sensors used in the three-axis measurement system are arranged in a three-dimensional space outside the ship model. When used, they need to be calibrated with a remote reference electrode in the same space. In this measurement method, the sensor measurement dimension and the dimension generated by the shaft-frequency field source are in relative motion. Therefore, this method cannot achieve in-situ measurement and self-perception of the underwater electric field of a ship when the shaft-frequency electric field measurement point and the source are in a relatively static state.

[0005] Chinese Patent 201910140651.3 discloses a ship tracking and positioning method based on shaft-frequency electric fields, comprising the following steps: S1) establishing two or more ship shaft-frequency electric field measurement nodes; S2) using the measurement nodes to measure the ship's shaft-frequency electric field signals in real time; S3) calculating the envelope of the measured shaft-frequency electric field signals; S4) modeling the shaft-frequency electric field envelope signals using a unit current source model and establishing a Kalman filter observation model; S5) using the Kalman filter method to estimate the ship's state information based on the measured shaft-frequency electric field envelope signals to achieve ship tracking and positioning. The method involves establishing two or more ship shaft-frequency electric field measurement nodes in the measurement area, acquiring the shaft-frequency electric field signals of the measured ship through a measurement array composed of the measurement nodes, performing real-time calculation and analysis of the measurement data, and tracking and positioning the target ship.

[0006] Chinese patent 202211189953.8 discloses a ship shaft frequency electric field detection system and method, which includes the following steps: S1.1: recording the propeller speed range and corresponding shaft frequency of different types of ships for storage; S1.2: installing an electric field measurement system on the bottom of the detected ship to detect the underwater signal; S1.3: performing noise processing on the measured signal data of the detected ship by constructing a function model and confirming the basic information of the detected ship; S1.4: measuring the signal of the detected ship again to obtain the position, forward direction and forward speed of the detected ship; S1.5: the visual screen simulates the driving status of the detected ship. And a ship shaft frequency electric field detection method disclosed in Chinese patent 202110360409.4 includes an electric field detection device, a display system and a computing device. The number of electric field detection devices is two, and the two electric field detection devices are fifteen meters apart. The specific detection steps are: Step 1, data entry: input the propeller speed range and shaft frequency electric field information corresponding to various ship types into the computing device; Step 2, ship type detection: in the process of detecting the movement of the ship, the electric field detection device is used to detect the surrounding electric field, and the detected shaft frequency electric field and the corresponding shaft frequency electric field of the ship recorded in the first step are analyzed to analyze the ship type, and the ship type information is transmitted to the display system for display; Step 3, ship angle detection: two electric field detection devices The device records the corresponding shaft-frequency electric field transmission angle. Fourth, position calculation: The computing device combines the electric field propagation angle of the detected vessel in step 3 and the distance between the two electric field detection devices to calculate the direction of the detected vessel and the distance between the detected vessel and the detecting vessel at this time, thereby determining the position of the detected vessel. Fifth, secondary detection: After the detecting vessel moves for 1 to 2 seconds, the detected vessel's position is continuously detected using steps 3 and 4. Simultaneously, the computing device calculates the moving speed of the detected vessel based on the distance between the two detected positions. Sixth, position display: The computing device transmits the detected vessel's position signal and travel information to the display system, which then displays the detected vessel's position and travel information. These two processes, through two or more electric field detection device measurement nodes, employ steps such as data entry, vessel type detection, vessel angle detection, position verification, secondary detection, and position display to achieve target vessel detection and positioning within the limitations of acoustic detection technology. Although it has developed from laboratory exploration to actual engineering application, the detection dimension has always been to monitor the dynamic shaft frequency field source by an underwater static sensor array. No in-situ onboard monitoring method for underwater shaft frequency electric field in the same spatial dimension with the monitoring sensor and the actual ship shaft frequency field source being relatively stationary has been proposed. There is a lack of effective means for ships to actively and immediately grasp the characteristic intensity of their own underwater shaft frequency electric field.

[0007] Chinese patent 201710046480.9 discloses a ship shaft frequency electric field suppression device and its suppression method, which includes a rectifier module, a power module and a control module. The rectifier module is connected to the power module, which is connected to the control module. The rectifier module is provided with a current input terminal, the power module is provided with a current output terminal, and the control module is provided with a signal processing board, a current control board, a power monitoring board, a display driver board, and a status display board; the signal processing board is connected to the shaft housing current signal input terminal, the signal processing board is connected to the display driver board, and the display driver board is connected to the status display board; the signal processing board is provided with an amplifier circuit, which includes three stages, the first stage is an instrument amplifier, and the second and third stages are reverse amplifiers; the signal processing board is connected to the current control board, and the current control board is provided with a high-pass filter circuit, a first low-pass filter circuit, a second low-pass filter circuit, an absolute value circuit and a voltage follower; the current control board is connected to the power monitoring board, and the power monitoring board is connected to the power module. This method collects the shaft housing current signal of the load from the outside of the ship, and after signal amplification, DC component filtering, and AC component output, the power module outputs a counteracting current. This method focuses on the process of electric field suppression, but does not detect the results of electric field suppression. It lacks a means for the ship itself to independently assess the results of underwater shaft frequency electric field suppression. Therefore, the inventors have developed and designed a ship's underwater shaft frequency electric field onboard in-situ monitoring device. This device allows relevant crew members to monitor their own underwater shaft frequency electric field strength at any time throughout the ship's lifecycle, instantly determine the control effect of the ship's underwater shaft frequency electric field, and proactively and promptly monitor the ship's underwater shaft frequency electric field strength, thereby enhancing safety and concealment and improving the ship's vitality. Summary of the invention:

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and to develop and design an on-board in-situ monitoring device for the underwater shaft frequency electric field of a ship, which is directly installed and fixed on the ship. By providing real-time feedback on the changes in the shaft frequency domain characteristics before and after the control of the ship's shaft frequency electric field, the control effect of the ship's underwater shaft frequency electric field can be instantly judged and mastered.

[0009] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the main structure of the ship's underwater shaft frequency electric field on-board in-situ monitoring device involved in the present invention includes a hull connector and an on-board in-situ fixed bracket arranged on the outside of the hull, a conductive rod sealing box and a watertight mechanism arranged inside, and a sensor probe arranged on the on-board in-situ fixed bracket; wherein, a sealing gasket is arranged between the hull connector and the hull and the on-board in-situ fixed bracket, and the sensor probe has a sensor cover.

[0010] The hull connector involved in the present invention is made of a mesh glass fiber composite material and has a conductive rod arranged in the center; the ship's in-situ fixing bracket is made of a mesh glass fiber composite material and has a mounting slot; the main structure of the sensor probe includes a probe body and a probe working surface arranged on the outside, a sensor wire arranged on the top, and the sensor wire is connected to the conductive rod.

[0011] The sensor probe of the present invention has a standard error of accuracy of ≤0.1mV and self-noise

[0012] ≤5nV / (@1Hz), prepared by melt-pressing impregnation method, the preparation process is as follows:

[0013] First, the powdered electrode core material is heat-melted and die-cast with the mesh electrode cover in a mold to form the probe body;

[0014] Then, the probe body is placed in a polar solution and repeatedly immersed in cooling until the surface of the mesh electrode cover forms a long-lasting and stable probe working surface;

[0015] Finally, the probe body, sensor wire and sealing plug are cured and packaged.

[0016] The present invention relates to an on-board in-situ monitoring device for underwater shaft frequency electric field of a ship. When used, the device is installed above the propeller-shaft of the ship and connected to a host computer via a cable. The host computer is a commercially available conventional potential sampling device with a high sampling frequency. The sampling frequency is set to ≥100Hz. The sensor probe captures the potential parameter change parameters of the hull surface above the propeller-shaft at the shaft frequency in real time, obtains characteristic data containing the fluctuations of the underwater shaft frequency electric field of the ship, and extracts the potential fluctuations on the hull surface with the same frequency characteristics as the propeller-shaft rotation of the ship through real-time data processing. The peak value changes of the characteristic peaks of the shaft frequency before and after control are analyzed, so that the crew can timely grasp the control effect of the underwater shaft frequency electric field of the ship. The shaft frequency electric field data results obtained in real time by the in-situ monitoring device can be used to guide the adjustment and optimization of the working parameters of the underwater shaft frequency electric field suppression device.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can realize long-term and effective in-situ real-time monitoring of underwater shaft frequency electric field by connecting with ordinary high-frequency electric potential sampling equipment purchased on the market, which greatly reduces the threshold for use. Crew members can operate it after simple training; through in-situ monitoring, the slight changes in electric field potential at the shaft frequency and the signal characteristic laws can be grasped in real time, making it possible to capture the underwater shaft frequency electric field characteristics of the ship on board in actual engineering applications; through the potential fluctuations on the hull surface with the same frequency characteristics as the propeller-shaft rotation, the peak value changes of the shaft frequency characteristic peak before and after the electric field control are extracted in real time, the suppression ratio of the ship's shaft frequency electric field strength is independently judged, and the concealment effect of the shaft frequency electric field is grasped and regulated in time; the potential parameters of the hull surface above the propeller-shaft are captured in real time in situ by the sensor probe, which reduces the difficulty of engineering application and realizes the same-space-dimensional signal collection and analysis when the signal detection end and the actual ship's shaft frequency field source are relatively stationary.
