Detailed implementation manners

[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0021] Next, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings through specific embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, a method for quickly constructing an electric field fingerprint technology database is provided. The monitoring object targeted by this method is an array electrode corrosion component, that is, its signal acquisition electrodes are several and arranged in an array, and are fixedly arranged on the surface of the component to be corroded, such as the surface of a straight pipeline with pitting corrosion.

[0023] The method includes the following steps: Step 1, Simulation calculation requirement analysis: Calculate the electric field distribution information of the monitoring component with pitting corrosion.

[0024] In this step, it is necessary to clarify the monitoring object information of the electric field fingerprint technology, confirm the simulation calculation objectives, requirements, and the included corrosion defect information. The monitoring object information includes the geometric parameters of the pipeline (pipe diameter, wall thickness, material), anti-corrosion layer parameters (thickness, resistivity), soil environment parameters (conductivity, water content), etc. The simulation calculation objectives and requirements include the accuracy of the simulation, boundary conditions (such as the applied current), calculation methods (such as the finite element method), etc. The corrosion defect information includes the geometric characteristics of pitting corrosion (size, depth, location), the electrical characteristics of the corrosion products (resistivity), etc. According to the determined information, the electric field distribution information of the monitoring component with pitting corrosion (such as a straight pipeline) is calculated.

[0025] Simulate the detection of a straight pipeline with pitting corrosion by the electric field fingerprint non-destructive testing technology, including the detection of the external surface electric field of the pipeline without corrosion and with pitting corrosion. The simulation principle is to apply a constant current at both ends of the pipeline, deploy electrodes on the external surface of the pipeline, and measure the voltage value between two adjacent electrodes, that is, to reflect the internal defect distribution of the pipeline through the voltage measurement on the external surface.

[0026] Step 2: Setting parameters for the simulation calculation model: Construct a simulation calculation program and set model parameters (such as pipeline parameters), pitting parameters, and physical field parameters.

[0027] The simulation model can be pipelines, flat plates, elbows, etc., and model defects include uniform corrosion, pitting, and cracks, etc. The simulation model parameters include geometric parameters, mesh parameters, material parameters, physical field parameters, and coordinate parameters, etc. The simulation model parameters are a set of different calculation parameters, which can be the uniform distribution calculation of a single parameter or the full combination of different values of multiple parameters. Step 2 includes the following steps: Step 2.1: System construction: Select programming languages (MATLAB, Java, etc.), multi-physics field simulation calculation software (COMSOL, etc.), and databases (MySQL, etc.).

[0028] Step 2.2: Pipeline parameter setting: Set the pipeline simulation model parameters, including pipeline length, outer diameter, wall thickness, material, etc.

[0029] Step 2.3: Pitting parameter setting: Set the morphology parameters when pitting occurs in the pipeline, including pitting coordinate information and morphology parameter information, where the morphology parameter information includes pitting radius and pitting depth.

[0030] Step 2.4: Physical field parameter setting: Add the physical field parameters of the simulation model, apply direct current to both ends of the pipeline, and establish a pipeline simulation calculation model.

[0031] An example of the development and simulation calculation of the present invention is as Figure 2 shown.

[0032] Step 3: Calculation of the simulation calculation model: Calculate the electric field distribution information of the pipeline without pitting and with pitting under a single parameter.

[0033] For the set model parameters, perform calculations according to the set parameters to obtain the electric field distribution information of the simulation model. Step 3 includes the following steps: Step 3.1: Calculation of the pipeline model without pitting: Select a single parameter in the pipeline setting parameter array as the pipeline setting parameter, and calculate the electric field distribution information of the model under a single pipeline parameter.

[0034] Step 3.2: Calculation of the pipeline model with pitting: Calculate the pipeline model with pitting under the same set parameters as in Step 3.1.

[0035] Step 4: Extraction of potential information of the simulation model: According to the set electrode matrix parameters, construct an electric field data extraction coordinate matrix, and extract the potential information included in the coordinates to construct a collected potential matrix. Specifically, the voltage values of the outer surface electrode array of the pipeline model are extracted. An example of the extraction of the present invention is as Figure 3 shown.

[0036] In this step, set the data extraction coordinate information. The coordinate information is a two-dimensional matrix, which can be single coordinate information or a combination of multiple coordinate information, including the coordinate information of each acquisition electrode under different electrode layout schemes, and extract the potential values of the set coordinate information points. Step 4 includes the following steps: Step 4.1: Construct an electrode coordinate matrix: Set the electrode matrix parameters on the outer surface of the pipeline model, including the array dimension and the array spacing. According to the set pipeline parameters and electrode matrix information, calculate the coordinate information of the acquisition electrodes under different electrode matrix arrangements. The electrode matrix parameters can be a combination of multiple parameters to achieve the acquisition of potential information under different electrode arrangement schemes.

[0037] Taking i the j row , where x , y and z are the coordinate information of the acquisition electrodes.

[0038] Step 4.2: Construct an acquisition potential matrix: According to the above-extracted coordinate information, extract the potential information of the acquisition electrodes included in the electrode matrix and construct an acquisition potential matrix: , where p ij is the potential value of the i th row and j th column.

[0039] Step 5, Calculate data post-processing: According to the above acquisition potential matrix, construct an initial potential difference matrix and an acquisition potential difference matrix respectively, and calculate the FC value matrix.

[0040] For the potential information included in the above-extracted coordinate information, calculate the potential difference between adjacent coordinates, construct an acquisition potential difference matrix, and further calculate the acquisition FC value matrix according to the acquisition potential difference matrix and the initial potential difference matrix. The FC value is the ratio of the voltage value acquired by the electrode matrix on the outer surface of the uncorroded pipeline to the voltage value acquired by the electrode array on the outer surface of the pipeline with pitting corrosion. Step 5 includes the following steps: Step 5.1: Construct an acquisition potential difference matrix: According to the above acquisition potential matrix, calculate the potential difference between adjacent coordinates and construct an acquisition potential difference matrix: , where v mn is the potential difference matrix m thn Potential difference of the column

[0041] Step 5.2: Construct the initial potential difference matrix: In the same way as the above steps, construct the potential matrix of the straight pipeline without pitting, and then construct the initial potential difference matrix: , where v0 mn is the potential difference of the m th row and the n th column of the initial potential difference matrix.

[0042] Step 5.3: Construct the matrix for calculating the FC value: According to the above-collected potential difference matrix and the initial potential difference matrix, calculate the matrix for collecting the FC value: , where fc mn is the FC value of the m th row and the n th column of the FC value matrix.

[0043] Step 6. Post-processing data storage: Insert the model parameters, potential difference matrix, and FC value matrix into the established pipeline pitting database.

[0044] Store the model results under each calculated parameter and the potential difference matrix and FC value matrix obtained from the previous processing, where the calculated parameters of different models in the database are used as the composite primary key.

[0045] Insert the calculation results of the simulation model into the established pipeline pitting database table, including pipeline parameters, pitting morphology parameters, and the voltage values collected by the electrode array and the electric field fingerprint feature signal FC calculated by data preprocessing.

[0046] Step 7. Full-parameter simulation calculation: Traverse all the set parameters of the model to complete the calculation and data storage of all the set parameter models. Specifically: According to the set calculation parameters, repeat the above steps 3 to 6 to ensure that all the set parameters of the model are traversed, and complete the simulation calculation, data post-processing, and storage of all the set parameters.

[0047] Step 8. Query of simulation calculation results: The system provides a method for querying the database table, and queries the calculation results of the simulation model under the calculation parameters of the model by selecting the calculation parameters in the database. An example result of the present invention is as shown in Figure 4 .

However, the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments. The above specific embodiments are merely illustrative rather than restrictive. Under the inspiration of the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art can also make many forms without departing from the spirit of the present invention and the scope protected by the claims, and all of them fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
