[0001] The present invention relates to the field of image detection, and in particular to an image processing method, device and system for fly ash monitoring. Background Art

[0002] Thermal power generation is a technology that burns fossil fuels through thermal equipment to heat water in a boiler and drives a turbine with steam to generate electricity. However, during the combustion process of fossil fuels, impurities and residues in the fossil fuels cannot be completely burned and become fine particulate matter, which is fly ash. The content of fly ash can reflect the working conditions of boiler combustion, so during the combustion process of fossil fuels, it is necessary to detect the content of fly ash.

[0003] Currently, thermal power generation generally collects fly ash through a smoke pipe, takes some samples and sends them to a laboratory for analysis.

[0004] This method is an off-line analysis method. From collecting fly ash to sending samples for analysis and then to obtaining the analysis results, a relatively long time has passed since the real-time generation of fly ash. During this process, since the real-time data of the fly ash content cannot be determined, the working parameters of the thermal equipment cannot be accurately adjusted in real time.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0011] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0012] It is understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. used in the present invention may be used herein to describe various elements, but unless otherwise specified, these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish a first element from another element. For example, without departing from the scope of the present invention, the first xx script may be referred to as the second xx script, and similarly, the second xx script may be referred to as the first xx script.

[0013] As Figure 1 shown, in one embodiment, an image processing method for fly ash monitoring is proposed, which may specifically include the following steps: S101, within a first preset time, obtain a first image collected by a first device; S102, determine the fly ash proportion in a first direction according to the first image; S103, determine the flow rate of fly ash according to the first image; S104, determine the start time and start duration of a second device according to the flow rate of fly ash; S105, start the second device according to the start time of the second device, and within the start duration of the second device, obtain a second image collected by the second device; S106, determine a target image corresponding to the first image in the second image, and determine the fly ash proportion in a second direction according to the target image; S107, determine the real-time monitoring value of fly ash according to the fly ash proportions in the first direction and the second direction; Wherein, the first device and the second device are image acquisition devices, the acquisition direction of the first device is a first direction perpendicular to the height direction of the smoke pipe, the acquisition direction of the second device is a second direction perpendicular to the height direction of the smoke pipe, the acquisition direction of the first device is perpendicular to the acquisition direction of the second device, and the height of the first device in the height direction of the smoke pipe is lower than that of the second device.

[0014] In this embodiment, the first device and the second device are image acquisition devices of the same model, and the settings of the working operation parameters are also the same.

[0015] In this embodiment, the smoke pipe is vertically arranged in the vertical direction, the acquisition direction of the first device is from one side wall to the center of the smoke pipe for shooting and acquisition, and the same is true for the second device. The first device and the second device only have perpendicular acquisition directions, and there will be no overlapping part in the actual acquisition ranges corresponding to them.

[0016] In this embodiment, the first image collected by the first device is actually a two-dimensional image within the length, width, and height area of a part of the smoke pipe. The same is true for the second device. It can be considered that from bottom to top, the first image is the mapped distance of the height of a part of the smoke pipe on the image, and from left to right is the mapped distance of the length or width of a part of the smoke pipe on the image. The same is true for the second image.

[0017] In this embodiment, the first preset time can be set to 5 - 10 s.

[0018] In this embodiment, the acquisition speed of the first device for acquiring the first image is related to the frame rate of the first device. The frame rate is the number of images acquired by the image acquisition device per second. Within the first preset time, the first device can acquire multiple first acquired images.

[0019] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 shown, the first direction in the fly ash proportion in the first direction is the acquisition direction of the first device, that is, the first direction perpendicular to the height direction of the smoke pipe; the second direction in the fly ash proportion in the second direction is the acquisition direction of the second device, that is, the second direction perpendicular to the height direction of the smoke pipe.

[0020] In this embodiment, the fly ash is conveyed from the lower part to the upper part of the smoke pipe, so the flow direction of the fly ash in the first acquired image and the second acquired image is from bottom to top.

[0021] In this embodiment, the start times of the second device and the first device are different, and the start time of the second device is slower than that of the first device. The first device remains started within the first preset time, and the second device remains started within the start duration of the second device.

[0022] In this embodiment, the second device is started according to the start time of the second device. It can start from the moment when the first device stops acquiring the first image, and after the start time of the second device, start the second device to acquire the second image.

[0023] In this embodiment, the number of the second images is greater than the number of the first images, so it is necessary to determine the target image corresponding to the first image in the second images. The target image here refers to the second image acquired when the scene in the first image frame passes through the second device.

[0024] In this embodiment, the steps of determining the fly ash proportion in the second direction based on the target image are the same as the steps of determining the fly ash proportion in the first direction based on the first image.

[0025] An image processing method for fly ash monitoring provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes obtaining a first image collected by a first device within a first preset time; determining the proportion of fly ash in a first direction based on the first image; determining the flow rate of the fly ash based on the first image; determining the start time and start duration of a second device according to the flow rate of the fly ash; starting the second device according to the start time of the second device, and obtaining a second image collected by the second device during the start duration of the second device; determining a target image corresponding to the first image in the second image, and determining the proportion of fly ash in a second direction based on the target image; determining a real-time monitoring value of the fly ash according to the proportions of fly ash in the first direction and the second direction. First, the present invention determines the proportion of fly ash in the first direction and the flow rate of the fly ash through the first image. The flow rate of the fly ash determines the start time and start duration of the second device. Find the target image corresponding to the first image in the second image, determine the proportion of fly ash in the second direction through the target image, and evaluate the real-time monitoring value of the fly ash according to the proportions of fly ash in the first direction and the second direction, solving the problem that the content of fly ash cannot be monitored in real time.

[0026] In one embodiment, the determining the proportion of fly ash in the first direction based on the first image includes: For each first image, use a fly ash particle recognition model to identify the fly ash particles in the first image; Divide the first image into a plurality of first sub-regions from bottom to top according to a first preset area, and number the first sub-regions; Denote the first sub-region of the first first image as the region to be judged; Select a preset number of fly ash particles closest to the upper edge of the region to be judged in the region to be judged, and denote them as target particles; For the first sub-regions with the same number of each first image, judge whether there are target particles in the first sub-regions with the same number. If so, denote the first sub-region with the same number where the target particle is closest to the upper edge as the region to be judged; For each region to be judged, determine the number a of pixels occupied by the fly ash particles in the region to be judged i ; From Obtain the proportion of fly ash in the first direction; Where i is the serial number of the region to be judged, n is the number of regions to be judged, and N is the total number of pixels of the region to be judged.

[0027] In this embodiment, using a fly ash particle recognition model to identify the fly ash particles in the first image is an existing technology. It involves common technologies such as image recognition and edge technology, which will not be elaborated here.

[0028] In this embodiment, as Figure 4As shown, it is a schematic diagram of identifying fly ash particles in the first image using the fly ash particle recognition model. The red area in the figure is the first sub-region.

[0029] In this embodiment, the side length of the first image from bottom to top (i.e., the side of the first image) is evenly divided into several segments. The length of each divided side length segment multiplied by the side length of the first image from left to right (i.e., the bottom side of the first image) is the first preset area. For example, if the side of the first image is evenly divided into 5 segments, the first preset area is 1 / 5 of the area of the first image. The first preset area is generally set to 1 / 5 - 1 / 10 of the first image.

[0030] In this embodiment, since the fly ash moves from bottom to top, the numbers of the first sub-regions increase from bottom to top.

[0031] In this embodiment, the size and shape of the target particles are determined and can be selected and identified through computer language. The preset quantity can be any value from 1 to 10. For example, the fly ash particles closest to the upper edge of 5 regions to be judged. The simplest way is to set the preset quantity to 1.

[0032] In this embodiment, to judge whether there are target particles in the first sub-region with the same number, as long as there is one target particle, it is judged that there are target particles in the first sub-region with the same number, and it is not necessary for all target particles to exist. Similarly, there may be multiple first sub-regions that meet the requirements in the same-numbered first sub-regions where the target particles are closest to the upper edge. The numbers of these multiple first sub-regions are the same, but they belong to different first images. Suppose we are judging the second first sub-region of each first image now. Then, the second first sub-regions of multiple first images may be determined as the regions to be judged. At this time, only the second first sub-region of one first image needs to be selected and recorded as the region to be judged. Usually, the second first sub-region of the first image with the earliest time order can be selected and recorded as the region to be judged. In this way, the number of regions to be judged is the same as the number of first sub-regions in any one first image. In fact, the region to be judged is the movement change process of the fly ash in the first first sub-region of the first first image.

[0033] In this embodiment, there is a significant difference in the pixel values of the pixels of the fly ash particle image and the background color, and the distinction is simple.

[0034] In this embodiment, only the first sub-region of the first first image is calculated to obtain the fly ash proportion in the first direction. Of course, it is also possible to calculate using the data of the movement change process of the fly ash in the first sub-region of the second first image, or calculate the average value of the data of the movement change process of the fly ash in the first sub-regions of these two first images, or even calculate the average value of the data of the movement change process of the fly ash in the first sub-regions of more first images.

[0035] In one embodiment, determining the flow rate of fly ash according to the first image includes: Determine the first image A corresponding to each region to be judged; Determine the time interval between two adjacent first images A in time; Calculate the average value of all the time intervals according to all the time intervals; From Obtain the flow rate of fly ash; Wherein, s is the length of the side of a first sub-region from bottom to top, and t is the average value of all the time intervals.

[0036] In this embodiment, the time interval between two adjacent first images A in time can be obtained by subtracting the acquisition time of the previous first image A from the acquisition time of the latter first image A. There are several first images collected by the first device between two adjacent first images A in time, and it can be calculated according to the number of first images collected by the first device between two adjacent first images A in time, because the frequency of the first images collected by the first device is fixed.

[0037] In one embodiment, determining the start time and start duration of the second device according to the flow rate of fly ash includes: Determine the height difference h between the first device and the second device; From Obtain the start time of the second device; From Obtain the start duration of the second device; Wherein, v is the flow rate of fly ash, T 1 is the first error time, L is the length from bottom to top of the range photographed by the second device in the actual scene, T 2 is the second error time.

[0038] In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the second device is sure to collect the target image corresponding to the first image collected by the first device within the first preset time, the second device needs to be started in advance.

[0039] In this embodiment, if it is necessary to calculate the average value using the data of the movement change process of the fly ash in the first sub-region of more first images, the startup duration of the second device also needs to be extended. At this time, it can be obtained by the startup duration of the second device, where d is the number of first images corresponding to the data of the movement change process of the fly ash in the first sub-region of the first images used.

[0040] In this embodiment, since the flow rate of the fly ash is uncertain for the first preset time, a redundant duration generally needs to be reserved to ensure that at least one set of data of the movement change process of the fly ash in the first sub-region of the first image can be obtained. After knowing the flow rate of the fly ash, the startup duration of the second device is determined according to the flow rate of the fly ash.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first error time and the second error time can be set to 1 / 5 or less. If the startup duration of the second device obtained by is used, it can be set to 1 / 5 or less. The first error time and the second error time can be the same. This is because there may be an error between the calculated flow rate of the fly ash and the actual flow rate of the fly ash, and the actual flow rate of the fly ash may be a variable value fluctuating around the obtained flow rate of the fly ash. An error time needs to be reserved to ensure that at least one set of data of the movement change process of the fly ash in the first sub-region of the first image can be obtained. L is a fixed value, and L is essentially the mapped height of the height of the second image collected by the second device in the actual scenario.

[0042] In one embodiment, determining the target image corresponding to the first image in the second image includes: For the first first image or each second image, use the fly ash particle recognition model to identify the fly ash particles in the first first image or the second image; Determine the pixel data group X of the first first image according to the fly ash particles in the first first image 1 ; Determine the pixel data group Y of the second image according to the fly ash particles in the second image j ; Compare the pixel data group X 1 with the pixel data group Y j respectively to obtain the similarity value between each second image and the first first image; Obtain the selection time period by ; Determine the second image collected within the selection time period with the earliest time order in the startup duration of the second device as the selected image; Select the second image corresponding to the largest similarity value in the selected images as the target image corresponding to the first image; Use the target image corresponding to the first image as the first target image, and determine the target images corresponding to other first images in the second image; where j is the serial number of the second image, T 1 is the first error time, and T 2 is the second error time.

[0043] In this embodiment, only the target image corresponding to the first first image in the second image needs to be found, and the target images corresponding to other first images in the second image can be directly determined according to the collected time. For example, if the first first image is collected at the first second and the target image corresponding to the first first image in the second image is collected at the twentieth second, then the second images collected after the twentieth second are successively the target images corresponding to the first images collected after the first second.

[0044] In this embodiment, the step of determining the pixel data group Y of the second image according to the fly ash particles in the second image j is the same as the step of determining the pixel data group X of the first first image according to the fly ash particles in the first first image. 1

[0045] In this embodiment, select the second image corresponding to the largest similarity value in the selected images as the target image corresponding to the first image, which can ensure that the number of remaining images of the second image is greater than or equal to the number of first images corresponding to the movement change process of the fly ash in the first sub-region of the first image used. If there is a situation where the similarity values are the same during this process, select the second image with an earlier acquisition time among the second images corresponding to the same similarity value as the target image corresponding to the first image.

[0046] In one embodiment, the step of determining the pixel data group X of the first first image according to the fly ash particles in the first first image 1 , includes: Divide the first first image into a plurality of second sub-regions from bottom to top according to the second preset area; For each second sub-region, determine the fly ash particle B with the largest area in the second sub-region; Select the pixel column with the largest number of pixels belonging to the fly ash particle B in the vertical direction among the fly ash particles B; Mark the pixels belonging to the fly ash particle B on this pixel column as 1, and mark the pixels not belonging to the fly ash particle B on the pixel column as 0, to obtain the pixel data group of this second sub-region of the first first image; ​Determine the pixel data group X of the first first image according to the pixel data groups of all the second sub-regions 1 。

[0047] In this embodiment, the second preset area is smaller than the first preset area, and the splitting method is the same as the method for obtaining the first sub-region. The second preset area can be a value in the range of 1 / 5 - 1 / 10 of the first preset area. The bottom side of the second sub-region is the same length as the bottom side of the first image, and the length of the side of the second sub-region is determined by the second preset area.

[0048] In this embodiment, since the fly ash particle B is not blocked in both the first direction and the second direction, it can be used as a recognition condition. Since the fly ash particle B may be an irregular shape, the pixel column with the largest number of pixels belonging to the fly ash particle B in the vertical direction in the fly ash particle B is selected. The direction of the pixel column is consistent with the direction from bottom to top, that is, the height direction of the chimney in practice.

[0049] In this embodiment, the pixel columns selected for each second sub-region do not necessarily have to be the same pixel column of the first image. This is because only one pixel column is selected for each second sub-region, so there will be no conflict among the pixels corresponding to any data in the pixel data group in the vertical direction.

[0050] In this embodiment, the data in the data group will only be one of 0 or 1.

[0051] In one embodiment, the pixel data group X 1 is respectively compared with the pixel data group Y j to obtain the similarity value between each second image and the first first image, including: For each pixel data group Y j , obtain the similarity value between the second image corresponding to this pixel data group Y j and the first first image; wherein, m is the number of data in the pixel data group X 1 or Y j , k is the serial number of the data in the pixel data group Y j , x k is the k-th data in the pixel data group X 1 , and y jk is the k-th data in the pixel data group Y j .

[0052] In this embodiment, if x k and y jk are the same, then the result obtained is 0, 1 minus 0 is 1, so 1 is accumulated. If they are exactly the same, then the pixel data group X1 and the pixel data group Y j The final similarity value is 1 if they are exactly the same, and 0 if they are completely different. Therefore, the range of the similarity value is between 0 and 1.

[0053] In one embodiment, determining the real-time monitoring value of fly ash according to the fly ash proportion in the first direction and the second direction includes: Determining the first evaluation value R of fly ash by looking up a table according to the fly ash proportion in the first direction 1 ; Determining the first evaluation value R of fly ash by looking up a table according to the fly ash proportion in the second direction 2 ; From Obtain the real-time monitoring value of fly ash.

[0054] In this embodiment, looking up a table means finding the corresponding value in a manually set table according to the fly ash proportion.

[0055] In this embodiment, generally speaking, the distribution of fly ash in the flue gas duct space is relatively uniform. Therefore, according to R 1 and R 2 Generally, the difference is not significant. The real-time monitoring value of fly ash can be determined according to the average value of R 1 and R 2 .

[0056] As Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, an image processing device for fly ash monitoring is provided, which may specifically include: A first acquisition module, configured to acquire a first image collected by a first device within a first preset time; A first proportion module, configured to determine the fly ash proportion in the first direction according to the first image; A flow rate determination module, configured to determine the flow rate of fly ash according to the first image; A start control module, configured to determine the start time and start duration of a second device according to the flow rate of fly ash; A second acquisition module, configured to start the second device according to the start time of the second device, and acquire a second image collected by the second device during the start duration of the second device; A second proportion module, configured to determine a target image corresponding to the first image in the second image, and determine the fly ash proportion in the second direction according to the target image; A real-time monitoring module, configured to determine the real-time monitoring value of fly ash according to the fly ash proportions in the first direction and the second direction; Among them, the first device and the second device are image acquisition devices.

For the specific explanations of each module, please refer to the corresponding content in the method part of the present invention, and the embodiments of the present invention will not be elaborated herein.
