Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of material corrosion detection, and mainly to a method and system for detecting corrosion of fan components based on a microprobe. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the in-depth development and strategic layout of the marine economy, offshore wind power, as a representative of clean and renewable energy, has played an increasingly important role in promoting the transformation of energy structure and achieving sustainable development. However, the uniqueness of the marine environment, especially the harsh conditions such as high salt fog, high humidity, strong ultraviolet rays, and large temperature difference between day and night, poses a severe challenge to the durability of offshore wind power facilities. Offshore wind power equipment, especially wind turbine components, exposed to such a harsh environment for a long time will accelerate the corrosion process and seriously affect the reliability and service life of the equipment. Once the wind turbine components are corroded, their structural strength decreases, which is easy to cause economic losses and safety hazards, seriously affecting the safe operation and performance of offshore wind power. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a comprehensive and effective wind turbine component corrosion detection method to provide a strong guarantee for the safe operation of offshore wind power facilities.

[0003] At present, the corrosion monitoring of offshore wind turbines mostly adopts probe technology, which requires the probe to directly contact the metal material to be monitored, and characterize the corrosion of the metal material through electrical signals such as resistance, inductance, and potential; or infer the corrosion of the monitored metal material through the corrosion of the probe. However, in the existing corrosion monitoring technology, DC detection technology is used, which ignores the capacitance effect. The coating resistance is much greater than the metal resistance, so the sensitivity of the meter is extremely high. In addition, DC carries less information and can only reflect the overall corrosion of the metal and coating of the wind turbine components, but cannot reflect the changes in the characteristics of the steel and coating caused by corrosion.

[0004] For example, the Chinese invention patent with the publication number of "CN113970516A" discloses a "Metal Material Corrosion Monitoring System and Method", which specifically discloses "A Metal Material Corrosion Monitoring System and Method, the system comprising: a signal excitation unit for applying a sinusoidal AC excitation signal to two electrochemical impedance probes through an electrochemical impedance monitor; a signal receiving unit for obtaining an instantaneous response signal based on the sinusoidal AC excitation signal through the electrochemical impedance monitor; an electrical signal parameter acquisition unit for obtaining an equivalent circuit between two wires respectively connected to the two electrochemical impedance probes according to the instantaneous response signal. Impedance; data analysis unit, used to calculate the corrosion current density and corrosion rate according to the equivalent impedance, so as to realize the corrosion monitoring of metal materials". However, this method adopts contact detection, and detects through electrochemical impedance monitor and electrochemical impedance probe. Specific probes will be installed on the metal material, which will cause damage to the surface of the metal material and make it difficult to fully cover the parts, resulting in limited accuracy of the test results. In addition, this method only calculates the corrosion current density and corrosion rate based on the equivalent impedance to monitor the corrosion situation. The analysis dimension is relatively single, and there is a lack of prediction of the development trend of metal corrosion and monitoring and analysis of the status of the metal protective layer.
