Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wind power material corrosion simulation test, and in particular to a device and method for cross-regional multi-factor corrosion simulation test suitable for offshore wind power. Background Art
[0002] The ocean is rich in resources, such as oil, gas, and ocean energy. It has huge potential economic value and an important strategic position, but it also brings new challenges. In complex marine environments such as high humidity, high salt fog, and long sunshine, materials will inevitably suffer from severe corrosion, which poses a severe challenge to the corrosion protection of offshore wind power equipment. At the same time, due to the special geographical environment of offshore wind power equipment, this will increase the cost of later maintenance. Therefore, marine corrosion will not only shorten the operating life of offshore wind turbines, but also increase the safety hazards and operation and maintenance costs caused by corrosion.
[0003] At present, the research on the corrosion problem of offshore wind power mainly relies on the real sea hanging method, but this method has many problems. Not only is the test cycle long, but it also consumes a lot of manpower and material resources. In addition, the harsh marine environment easily leads to large deviations in experimental data and loss of samples. In addition, most of the existing laboratory simulated seawater corrosion tests focus on simulating a single marine environment, making it difficult to simultaneously evaluate the corrosion problems of multiple marine areas and realize cross-regional corrosion research on offshore wind power towers. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cross-regional multi-factor corrosion simulation test device and method suitable for offshore wind power towers. This will be conducive to the study of corrosion laws and life assessment of offshore wind power steel, and provide a basis for the upgrading of offshore wind power materials.
