The first compliance test was conducted by synchronous measurement using a COD gauge and an LVDT sensor to obtain the elastic modulus and the second compliance correction coefficient. After removing the COD gauge, a second compliance test was conducted under test conditions. The crack length was calculated using an LVDT sensor, and the mapping relationship and crack length calculation formula were combined.
It enables accurate measurement of crack propagation length in metallic materials under fluid conditions, ensuring the accuracy of test results. The crack length data measured by LVDT deviates from the actual measured data by ≤±2%, further eliminating errors caused by the sample installation state and LVDT installation state.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of material crack propagation testing, in particular to a metal material crack propagation testing method and testing device in a fluid environment. BACKGROUND
[0002] Crack propagation testing is one of important testing projects in the study of the fracture mechanics performance of metal materials, and crack propagation length measurement is usually achieved by using two methods, i.e. a flexibility method and a potential method. In the flexibility method, the crack opening displacement of a sample is measured by using a COD gauge, the flexibility is calculated, and finally the crack propagation length is obtained. In the potential method, the crack opening potential of a sample is measured, and the crack propagation length is calculated based on a finite element potential data table. As for the two methods, the flexibility method is more accurate than the potential method in the measurement of crack propagation length, and therefore the flexibility method is more widely used than the potential method.
[0003] An important step of the crack propagation testing by using the flexibility method is the accurate measurement of the crack opening displacement of a sample, and the crack opening displacement of a sample is usually measured by using a COD gauge at home and abroad. However, in a special medium environment, such as a liquid metal environment (for example, a liquid lead-bismuth environment), the existing various COD gauges cannot be normally used, and therefore the crack propagation testing cannot be carried out according to the conventional testing technology. In the potential method, the wire and the environment must be insulated and non-conductive, and in the liquid metal environment, it is difficult to insulate and make the wire and the environment non-conductive, and therefore the potential method cannot be applied, and therefore the crack propagation testing in the medium environment becomes a testing technical problem.
[0004] Based on the above problems, there is an urgent need for a testing device capable of measuring the fatigue crack propagation of a sample in a fluid environment. SUMMARY

[0017] S9, using the mapping relationship formula C=>C LL The regularized crack length a is calculated according to the crack length calculation formula, and a is substituted into the formula The crack length a can be calculated.
[0018] By adopting the above technical scheme, when in use, first, crack propagation tests are carried out in a conventional air, room temperature environment to obtain the mapping relationship formula C=>C LL , then the first flexibility test is carried out in a synchronous measurement mode of the COD gauge and the LVDT sensor to obtain the elastic modulus correction value and the flexibility second correction coefficient, then the COD gauge is removed and the test environment is built, and the second flexibility test is carried out to obtain the elastic modulus correction value in the test environment, and finally, the crack length can be calculated through the mapping relationship formula C=>C LL and the crack length calculation formula by using the elastic modulus correction value in the test environment, the flexibility second correction coefficient and the LVDT sensor calculation data, so as to realize the purpose of carrying out the metal material crack propagation test in a fluid environment, and also ensure the accuracy of the test results.
[0019] Preferably, in S1, before the prefabricated step type C(T) sample, the value range [a min , a max ] of the regularized crack length a in the mapping relationship formula C=>C LL needs to be defined, and the crack propagation test is carried out according to the value range of a.

[0026] Preferably, in the mapping relationship calculation, if B0 equals 1, then B1 equals 1; if B0 is greater than 1 and B1 is less than 1, then B1 equals 1; if B0 is less than 1 and B1 is greater than 1, then B1 equals 1.
[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the influence of special circumstances on the test results is eliminated by limiting B0 and B1, thus ensuring the accuracy of subsequent calculation results.
[0028] Preferably, each time the step-shaped C(T) sample is replaced, and after the COD gauge and the LVDT sensor are connected with the step-shaped C(T) sample, the installation effect between the COD gauge, the LVDT sensor and the step-shaped C(T) sample is evaluated and tested through the flexibility test, and after the test is passed, the subsequent test is carried out.
[0029] By adopting the technical scheme, before the formal test, the installation effect evaluation test is carried out on the COD gauge and the LVDT sensor, so as to eliminate the error caused by the inconsistent installation state of the COD gauge and the LVDT sensor, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the detection result in the formal test process.
[0030] Preferably, the rotation of the LVDT measurement point position in the stretching process is minimized in design, and no correction is considered.
[0031] By adopting the technical scheme, the stress influence of the connection between the LVDT sensor and the test crack in the test process is eliminated, and the error caused by the installation state of the LVDT to the test result is reduced, thereby ensuring the normal progress of the subsequent test.
[0032] Preferably, the correction steps of the elastic modulus E and the flexibility coefficient B in S4 are as follows:
[0033] S41, presetting the initial value of the elastic modulus E, the increment ΔE and the crack length verification allowable deviation β;

[0041] S49, compare△a and β, if△a is greater than β, repeat S48 until△a is less than β, and the B0 value is the compliance second correction coefficient at this time.
[0042] By adopting the above technical scheme, the error range of the elastic modulus E correction value and the compliance second correction coefficient B0 and the actual value is less than the maximum value of the crack length calibration allowable deviation, so that the accuracy of the test result is ensured.
[0043] Preferably, the step of further correcting the elastic modulus E of the test sample in S6 is:
[0044] S61, preset the increment△E and the crack length calibration allowable deviation β;
[0045] S62, use the test sample elastic modulus E correction value in S44, the compliance second correction coefficient B0 in S4, and the opening displacement compliance C measured by the LVDT sensor i , the compliance real-time correction coefficient B1 is calculated according to the formula two in S2;

[0047] S63, take E=E+△E, repeat the calculation step of S62, and calculate the regularized crack length a again, and calculate the regularized crack length deviation△a=|a-a0|;
[0048] S64, compare△a with the crack length calibration allowable deviation β, if△a is greater than β, repeat S63 until△a is less than β, and the E value is the elastic modulus E correction value under the test environment condition at this time;
[0049] The crack length calculation formula is:
[0050] Formula three: regularized crack length ;
[0051] Formula four: {U}X = { { {BEVX / F}1 / 2 + 1}}-1 ;
[0052] In formula four, E is the elastic modulus; B is the thickness of the sample; V X / F is the loading line displacement flexibility C LL ; in formula three, C0=1.0002, C1=-4.0632, C2=11.242, C3=-106.04, C4=464.33, C5=-650.68.
[0053] By adopting the above technical scheme, the elastic modulus is twice corrected before crack propagation in the test environment, so as to eliminate the influence of the environment on the test crack propagation test result, and further reduce the error caused by the test environment.
[0054] Preferably, after a is calculated in S9, the crack length of the sample is measured, and a is detected and verified through the measured result.
[0055] By adopting the above technical scheme, after the test is completed, the test data and the measured data are compared, and the accuracy of the test result is further detected, which is beneficial to practical application.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0076] The following will be combined with the drawing 1-attached Figure 11 The present application is further described in detail.
[0077] The embodiment of the present application discloses a metal material crack propagation test method and test device in a fluid environment.
[0078] Embodiment 1:
[0079] Referring to Figure 1 A metal material crack propagation test method in a fluid environment, comprising the following steps:
[0080] S1: defining the α value range, pre-preparing and installing the step type C(T) sample;
[0081] The specific steps are: Define C => C LL The range of the regularized crack length α in the mapping relationship [α min ,α max Prefabricate a stepped C(T) specimen, install the stepped C(T) specimen on a stress corrosion testing machine, install the COD gauge on the built-in knife edge of the loading line of the stepped C(T) specimen, and fix two LVDT sensors on both sides of the notch surface of the stepped C(T) specimen.
[0082] Reference Figure 2 In crack rate propagation tests, on the one hand, the space inside the test vessel needs to be considered for simultaneous measurement by the LVDT sensor and COD gauge, meaning the sample size cannot be too large; on the other hand, the installation space required for the LVDT sensor and COD gauge also needs to be considered, meaning the sample size cannot be too small. Furthermore, the loading range of the existing testing equipment (50kN) needs to be taken into account. Therefore, in this embodiment, a width W = 50.8mm, a thickness B = 12.7mm, and a net side groove thickness B are selected. N =10mm, machining length a m =25mm stepped C(T) specimen.
[0083] S2: Repeated crack propagation tests were conducted under normal conditions to obtain initial fitting coefficients A0 and A1, and corrected C=>C. LL The mapping relationship;
[0084] The specific steps are as follows:
[0085] S21. Under normal air and room temperature conditions, conduct crack propagation tests according to the regularized crack length α range defined in S1. Obtain the loading linear displacement V by simultaneously measuring with a COD gauge, LVDT sensor, and force sensor. LL The opening displacement V and the force F, and using V LL The loading line displacement compliance C is obtained by performing a linear fitting calculation with the F data. LL The opening displacement compliance C is calculated using a linear fit with V and F data, and C is recorded simultaneously. LL Together with C, complete the experiment;
[0086] S22, Analyze C and C LL The measured data showed that C and C2 were obtained as the crack length expanded. LL They are linearly correlated, and their linear relationship expression is: And calculate the first power fitting constant A0 and the first power fitting coefficient A1, thus obtaining C=>C LL mapping relationship ;
[0087] S23. Repeatedly conduct multiple crack propagation tests under the same conditions, and calculate the multiple sets of loading line displacement compliance C obtained from the repeated tests. LL and multiple sets of opening displacement compliance C i and use C=>C in S2 LL The mapping relationship is used to calculate the regularized crack length α. LVDT and α COD To obtain regularized crack length data α LVDT and α COD The comparison curves, and based on the results of this experiment, the value of C=>C LL The mapping relationship is corrected, and after correction, C=>C LL The mapping relationship is as follows:
[0088] Formula 1: ; Formula 2: ;
[0089] In Equation 1, A0 and A1 are the first-order power fitting constants and first-order power fitting coefficients obtained in S22, and C i B1 represents the opening displacement compliance measured in the current crack propagation test, where C is the value of C. LL Real-time correction coefficient;
[0090] In Equation 2, B0 is the second-order compliance correction coefficient, which is obtained in S4 after analysis following the first compliance test; α i-1 This is the calculated value from the previous regularized crack length measurement; α max For C=>C LL The maximum value of the regularized crack length α corresponding to the mapping relationship; and in the above calculation of B1, if B0=1, or B0>1 and B1<1, or B0<1 and B1>1, then B1=1.
[0091] In applying the above mapping relationship, it should be noted that the values of A0 and A1 will be different depending on the range of α values in the final measured mapping relationship. If the length of the notch in the sample machining changes or the test range changes and exceeds the mapping range, then the mapping relationship should be redone. In addition, the mapping relationship obtained from the experiment can only represent one specification of sample used in the experiment. That is, the mapping relationship of 1T sample cannot be applied to 0.5T sample, and similarly, the mapping relationship of 0.5T sample cannot be applied to 1T sample.
[0092] This embodiment uses two crack propagation tests as an example for description. The specific implementation steps are as follows:
[0093] Step 1: Install the stepped CT specimen, install the COD gauge at the specimen loading line, and install the LVDT sensor at the specimen notch. Conduct the test according to the following test parameters.
[0094]
[0095] Step 2: Conduct crack propagation tests under normal air and room temperature conditions, and simultaneously measure the loading linear displacement V using a COD gauge and an LVDT sensor. LL And the opening displacement V, using the loading line displacement V LL Calculate the regularized crack length data α COD and using the applied linear displacement V LL The compliance coefficient C of the COD gauge loading line displacement is obtained by calculating the opening displacement V. LL The LVDT sensor measures the opening displacement compliance coefficient C1, and C is recorded synchronously. LL Together with C1, complete the experiment;
[0096]
[0097] Step 3: Adjust the compliance coefficient C of the COD gauge for loading linear displacement. LL The LVDT sensor measures the opening displacement compliance coefficient C1, that is, based on the measured C1 and C LL Data reveals C1 and C LL It has a linear correlation of the first degree, and the linear fitting curve is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the linear relationship is expressed as:
[0098] Linear equations: Where: A0 = -2.77846E-1, A1 = 4.74155E-1;
[0099] The linear correlation of the first-order fit is R = 0.999878. Examining the linear fit equation and calculating the correlation coefficient, we can see the measurement flexibility C of LVDT and COD gauge. LL Highly linearly correlated;
[0100] Step 4: To verify C and C LL The linear relationship was established. A stepped CT sample was replaced, and crack propagation tests were conducted again under normal air and room temperature conditions. The loading linear displacement V was simultaneously measured using a COD gauge and an LVDT sensor. LL And the opening displacement V, using the loading line displacement V LL Calculate the regularized crack length data α COD and using the applied linear displacement V LL The compliance coefficient C of the COD gauge loading line displacement is obtained by calculating the opening displacement V. LL The LVDT sensor measures the opening displacement compliance coefficient C2;
[0101] Step 5: Verify the mapping relationship and apply the linear displacement compliance coefficient C using the COD gauge. LL Calculate the crack length αCOD and LVDT sensor measures the opening displacement flexibility coefficient C2, through the mapping relationship in S23 to calculate the loading line displacement flexibility coefficient C LL ', and then use the loading line displacement flexibility coefficient C LL ' to calculate the crack length a LVDT , and calculate a LVDT and a COD deviation;
[0102] The second test uses the same test parameters as the first test; the second test applies the mapping relationship of C2and C LL obtained from the first test, and simultaneously measures the opening displacement V and the loading line displacement V LL and calculates the corresponding flexibility C2and C LL , and C2and C LL respectively calculate the regularized crack length data a LVDT and a COD ;
[0103]
[0104] Step 6: According to the test results above, further obtain the comparative curves of a LVDT and a COD , as shown in Figure 4 ; through comparison, it is found that the two curves do not coincide at the initial stage of crack propagation, but gradually coincide as the test develops, which is preliminarily judged to be caused by the difference between the initial installation state of the second test (sample installation, LVDT installation) and the initial installation state of the first test, which also shows that the change of the initial installation state has an impact on the accuracy of small opening displacement measurement, but it weakens as the opening displacement gradually increases;
[0105] Step 7: According to the results of the first test and the second test, the mapping relationship of C=>C LL is corrected, and the corrected mapping relationship is: .
[0106] In the above test process, it is assumed that during the process of applying load to the sample, the crack propagation of the sample is purely I-type crack action, i.e. the crack surface develops linearly, i.e. to eliminate the error caused by the irregular development of the crack to the result calculation; the rotation of the LVDT measurement point position is minimized in the design, and no correction is considered, i.e. to reduce the influence of the plane rotation resistance between the LVDT sensor and the sample connection during the crack propagation process of the sample on the test results; the LVDT installation state is stable during the test process, and the flexibility calculation range is taken as the middle linear part, i.e. to reduce the influence of external factors such as installation state on the test results during the test process, and to ensure the accuracy of the test results.
[0107] S3, replace the sample and install the test kettle;
[0108] The specific operation steps are: replace the stepped C(T) sample, after the stepped C(T) sample and the kettle cover of the test kettle are installed together, the whole is installed on the stress corrosion testing machine, and the COD gauge is installed at the loading line of the stepped C(T) sample, and the LVDT sensor is installed at the notch of the sample.
[0109] S4, perform the first flexibility test in a conventional environment to obtain the corrected value of the elastic modulus and the second correction coefficient of the flexibility;
[0110] The specific operation steps are: in a conventional air, room temperature, the first flexibility test is performed in a synchronous measurement mode of COD gauge and LVDT sensor, the elastic modulus E of the sample is corrected using the known crack length a m (machining length) and the COD gauge measurement data, and the flexibility coefficient B is secondly corrected using the known crack length a m , the corrected elastic modulus E, and the LVDT sensor measurement data, to obtain the second correction coefficient B0 of the flexibility, and the COD gauge is removed after the correction is completed;

[0129] S62, using the flexibility second correction coefficient B0 obtained in S4, substituting into formula two to calculate the flexibility real-time correction coefficient B1, wherein a i-1 The known regularized crack length a0 (a0 = a / W) is taken; then B1, the opening displacement flexibility C i measured by the LVDT sensor are used, and formula one is substituted to calculate the loading line displacement flexibility C LL ; finally, the sample elastic modulus E correction value and C LL are used, and the regularized crack length a is calculated according to the crack length calculation formula. a and the known regularized crack length a0 are compared. If a is greater than a0, then the increment DE = +0.0001E, otherwise DE = -0.0001E;

[0144] During the above test process, it should be noted that: the installation effect evaluation test should be carried out every time the sample, COD gauge and LVDT sensor are installed; the alternating load force should not be too large to cause the crack growth of the sample during each flexibility test; the holding force of the sample should not be too large to cause the crack growth of the sample during the establishment of the test environment.

[0147] The quantitative inspection requirement of the installation effect of the LVDT sensor is that, by using the flexibility test software, the force and the opening displacement hysteresis curve requires that the loading and unloading curves are visually coincided within the force value range of 10%~90% within the flexibility calculation range of 30%~70%
[0148] , the statistical variation coefficient of the flexibility of multiple loading and unloading is less than 0.2%.
[0149] The specific test for checking the installation effect by flexibility test is as follows:

[0154] The measurement steps are as follows:
[0155] S101, the stepped C(T) sample after crack propagation test is taken out, and the initial machining length position A, the prefabricated crack position B and the sample back position C are marked;
[0156] S102, the pixel of A, B and C positions is measured respectively;

[0158] S104, using the measured prefabricated crack length AB, the initial crack length a0 and the crack length , the software reported prefabricated crack length comparison calculation, the crack length measurement deviation and crack propagation measurement deviation are obtained.
[0159] In summary, according to the test data obtained by the crack propagation test of the LVDT sensor, the following evaluation is carried out:
[0160] (1) the double LVDT sensor cannot completely replace the COD gauge, and the COD gauge is still needed to establish the mapping relationship between the opening displacement flexibility C and the loading line displacement flexibility CLL, and the COD gauge is needed to calibrate the elastic modulus in the initial stage of the test;
[0161] (2) although the double LVDT sensor cannot completely replace the COD gauge, the flexibility C measured by the double LVDT sensor in normal temperature and pressure air can be better converted into the loading line displacement flexibility CLL, and the crack propagation curve can be obtained based on the LVDT measurement data;
[0162] (3) In special environment, as long as the LVDT sensor can measure normally and stably, the initial installation state is consistent, and the LVDT sensor is used with the COD gauge for the crack propagation test, which has feasibility, and the crack propagation data is good, the deviation of the crack length data and the measured data is only 1.098%, which is lower than the expected target deviation of 5%, and the flexibility measurement is stable during the crack propagation test process, and the correlation R of the flexibility calculation is greater than 0.9999.
