[0002] Embedded fasteners in hydropower units and anchor foundations are subject to constant tensile and torque loads, leading to defects often forming an angle with the fastener's axis. Conventional A-type pulsed ultrasonic technology employs single-element longitudinal wave straight probes and low-angle probes on both sides of the fastener to detect defects perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the fastener's axis. Shear wave angled probes are used on the fastener's shank to detect defects forming an angle with the fastener's axis. These three probes complement each other to detect defects in all directions throughout the fastener.
[0003] However, for ultrasonic testing of embedded fasteners that cannot be disassembled, the probe can only be placed on the exposed end face of the fastener. Longitudinal wave probes and small-angle probes are used to detect defects in the threads on this side that are perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the fastener axis. Defects in all positions and directions of the fastener cannot be detected, and there are blind spots in the detection.

[0030] As a reliable supplier of clean energy, hydropower stations bear primary responsibility for ensuring energy supply. Due to their advantages of rapid startup and shutdown and flexible load adjustment, they can adjust loads within a wide range according to grid dispatch orders, shouldering the mission of peak load regulation and ensuring energy supply. However, the frequent startup and shutdown of units and load fluctuations expose critical fasteners and bolts to long-term vibration, stress release, and fatigue loads. This can lead to some bolts breaking and failing, resulting in flooding of power plants.
[0031] Therefore, hydropower units need to be dismantled and overhauled every 6-7 years according to regulations. During this period, important fasteners and bolts need to be inspected and tested in order to discover harmful defects early and deal with them in time to eliminate safety hazards of the equipment.
[0032] As critical metal components in hydropower units, bolts connect various metal components and transmit various loads and torques. These bolts are subject to long-term fatigue loads, putting them at risk of fracture and failure. During overhauls and maintenance of hydropower units, bolts larger than M32 must be disassembled and ultrasonically inspected. This inspection uses a longitudinal wave straight probe and a low-angle probe on both ends of the bolt, and a shear wave oblique probe on the bolt shank to inspect the threads on both sides.
[0033] However, embedded bolts cast in concrete and anchor bolts with one side of the bolt threaded into the foundation in advance cannot be disassembled and only one side of the bolt end face is exposed. In reality, the probe can only be placed on the exposed end face for testing, and cannot be placed on the opposite side of the bolt end face and the rod for ultrasonic testing.
[0034] Embedded bolts and foundation bolts in hydropower units are subject to long-term tensile and torque loads, leading to cracks that often form a certain angle with the bolt's axis. Conventional A-type pulsed ultrasonic testing uses a single-element longitudinal wave straight probe and a small-angle probe on both sides of the bolt to detect cracks that are perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the bolt's axis. A shear wave oblique probe is used on the bolt shank to detect cracks that form a certain angle with the bolt's axis. The combination of these three probes is crucial for complete crack detection in all directions throughout the bolt.
[0035] However, for ultrasonic testing of embedded bolts that cannot be disassembled, the probe can only be placed on the exposed end face of the bolt, and a longitudinal wave probe and a small-angle probe can be used to detect cracks in the thread on this side that are perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the bolt axis. Cracks in all positions and directions of the bolt cannot be detected, and there is a blind spot in the detection.
[0036] The failure mode of bolts, a key fastener in hydropower units, is often fatigue cracking. Initially, tiny cracks develop, but then undergo a long crack growth process before breaking instantly when the load reaches the bolt's yield strength. Prompt detection and treatment of fatigue cracks during this growth phase can prevent plant flooding caused by bolt breakage.
[0037] For pre-embedded bolts cast in concrete, or foundation bolts with one side of the bolt threaded into the foundation, only one end face is exposed, and only this exposed end face can be used for inspection. Due to this limitation, conventional ultrasonic testing cannot detect cracks in all locations and directions along the bolt's end faces and shank using three different probes.
[0038] Therefore, how to detect defects in all positions and directions of fasteners becomes an unresolved problem.
[0039] In response to the above defects, an embodiment of the present application provides a fastener phased array defect detection method, which calls a fastener module and sets data information of the fastener to be detected on the fastener module; performs an overall scan on the fastener to be detected, so that the length data in the displayed data information corresponding to the set data information is consistent with the actual length, and tests the sound velocity of the fastener to be detected; adjusts the test parameters according to the sound velocity of the fastener to be detected so that the displayed data information is consistent with the actual data information, and adjusts the phased array imaging display to obtain an optimal phased array imaging display image; scans the leaked end face of the fastener to be detected with the adjusted detection sensitivity, and determines the phased array defect detection result of the fastener based on the optimal phased array imaging display image.
[0040] The present application solution adopts phased array defect detection, which can detect defects in all positions and directions of fasteners and has strong ease of use and practicality.
[0041] The specific process implemented in this application is introduced below through specific embodiments.
[0042] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the application scenario of the fastener phased array defect detection method provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the fasteners are bolts that are screwed into the foundation equipment to connect the foundation equipment to the connecting equipment. The foundation equipment is the foundation poured in concrete, and the connecting equipment is the metal equipment of the hydropower unit.
[0043] A bolt protrudes from the connecting nut on one side of the foundation equipment, and the bolt has a crack. The phased array probe scans the end face of the protruding bolt to detect defects. The phased array probe can be a daisy array probe, with a diameter that matches the bolt diameter within a tolerance of 5mm. The frequency is 2MHz-5MHz, and the 64 array elements are evenly arranged in a circular pattern.
[0044] See Figure 2 , Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the steps of the fastener phased array defect detection method provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include the following steps: S201, calling a fastener module, and setting data information of the fastener to be detected on the fastener module.
[0045] In some embodiments, the fasteners to be inspected can be bolts, screws, and the like, such as embedded bolts in hydropower units and foundation bolts. The phased array device retrieves the bolt module and sets the bolt and thread data based on the actual data required for bolt inspection.
[0046] According to one embodiment of the present application, the data information of the fastener to be inspected includes: the type, material, length and diameter of the fastener to be inspected, and the length, thread shape, pitch and height of the thread on the fastener to be inspected.
[0047] S202 , performing an overall scan on the fastener to be inspected, ensuring that the length data in the displayed data information corresponding to the set data information is consistent with the actual length, and testing the sound velocity of the fastener to be inspected.
[0048] In some embodiments, a probe is selected based on the bolt specifications and material. The phased array device scans the entire bolt at the bolt end using the probe to obtain the actual length of the bolt, determine the first and second bottom waves of the bolt, make the displayed bolt length data consistent with the actual length, and test the sound velocity of the bolt.
[0049] S203 , adjusting the test parameters according to the sound velocity of the fastener to be tested so that the displayed data information is consistent with the actual data information, and adjusting the phased array imaging display to obtain the best phased array imaging display image.
[0050] In some embodiments, test parameters are adjusted based on the sound velocity of the fastener being inspected, ensuring that values such as bolt length and thread pitch displayed by the phased array match the actual data. For example, if a thread defect is 100 mm from the probe, the phased array device will display the defect signal for the thread 100 mm from the probe.
[0051] The test parameters include: the model, diameter, frequency, number of chips, array element size and array element spacing of the daisy array probe.
[0052] In one embodiment, the phased array imaging display is adjusted to optimize the phased array imaging display image to facilitate better defect detection.
[0053] According to one embodiment of the present application, the method further includes: Adjust the display depth and focus depth; wherein the display depth is a preset multiple of the length of the fastener to be inspected, and the focus depth is the stress concentration area on the fastener to be inspected.
[0054] In some embodiments, the display depth and focus depth are adjusted, the display depth is 1.2 to 1.5 times the bolt length, and the focus depth is the stress concentration area of the 1st to 3rd threads of the probe's own thread and the opposite thread.
[0055] In some embodiments, the local thread, opposite thread, and bolt shank thread are distinguished based on the bolt specification and the position of the defect signal. For example, if the thread length of a stud bolt is 100mm and the shank length is 150mm, based on one side of the probe, if the defect signal is within 100mm, it indicates a thread defect on the local thread; if the defect signal is within the range of 100-250mm, it indicates a shank defect; and if the defect signal is within the range of 250-350mm, it indicates a thread defect on the opposite thread.
[0056] According to an embodiment of the present application, phased array imaging display includes: A-type imaging display, electronic scanning imaging display and three-dimensional imaging display.
[0057] S204 , scanning the leaked end face of the fastener to be inspected with the adjusted detection sensitivity, and determining a phased array defect detection result of the fastener based on the optimal phased array imaging display image.
[0058] According to one embodiment of the present application, before scanning the end surface of the leaked side of the fastener to be inspected with the adjusted detection sensitivity, the method further includes: Test a comparison block containing a specific reflector and adjust the detection sensitivity to ensure the same detection sensitivity at different depths at different locations on the comparison block. The comparison test block and the fastener to be tested are made of the same material and specifications, and the specific reflector is a grooved reflector with a preset depth, preset length, and a preset angle to the axial direction of the comparison test block in the stress concentration area. There are one or more grooved reflectors, and the grooved reflectors represent defects in the fastener.
[0059] In some embodiments, the information of the groove reflector includes: shape, length, depth, position, and angle with the bolt axis. Bolts of the same material and specifications are selected, and groove reflectors with a depth of 1mm, a length of 30mm, and angles of 45°, 90°, and 135° with the bolt axis are machined in the stress concentration area. The structural diagram of the comparison test block is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, there are three grooves on the comparison test block, namely groove 1, groove 2 and groove 3.
[0060] According to one embodiment of the present application, testing a comparison test block containing a specific reflector and adjusting the detection sensitivity so that the depths corresponding to different positions of the comparison test block have the same detection sensitivity include: Scan the end face of a comparison test block and adjust the echo amplitude of a specific reflector to achieve the preset value for full-screen imaging. Use the adjusted echo amplitude gain preset value as the standard detection sensitivity. Based on the standard detection sensitivity, compensate the detection sensitivity at different depths to the standard detection sensitivity. Then, plot a sensitivity curve based on depth, amplitude, and the standard detection sensitivity.
[0061] Among them, the sensitivity curve shows that the detection sensitivity corresponding to different depths is the standard detection sensitivity.
[0062] In some embodiments, the phased array device scans the end face of a comparison test block with a probe placed on it, adjusts the reflector echo amplitude to 80% of the full-screen amplitude, and then gains 6dB as the scanning sensitivity. A sensitivity curve is then created so that comparison test blocks of the same size have the same sensitivity at different depths, facilitating the determination of the size of defects in bolts.
[0063] For example, the amplitude of the reflector echo reaches 8dB, and then the gain is increased by 6dB (reaching 14dB) as the scanning sensitivity (when the phased array device scans the comparison test block based on the probe, the echo amplitude at different depths must reach 14dB), and a sensitivity curve is created so that the comparison test blocks of the same size have the same sensitivity at different depths. For example, when the corresponding depths of the comparison test blocks of the same size are 5, 6, 7, and 8mm, the echo amplitude must reach 14dB.
[0064] According to one embodiment of the present application, drawing a sensitivity curve based on depth, amplitude, and standard detection sensitivity includes: With depth as the horizontal axis and amplitude as the vertical axis, the discrete points formed by different depths and standard detection sensitivity are connected into a curve, which is the sensitivity curve.
[0065] According to one embodiment of the present application, the defect detection results include the location, size, and shape of the fastener defect. Using the adjusted detection sensitivity, the end face of the fastener to be inspected, where the defect is visible, is scanned. Based on the optimal phased array imaging display image, the phased array defect detection results for the fastener are determined, including: Using standard inspection sensitivity, the exposed end face of the fastener under inspection is scanned to obtain a defect signal. Based on the defect signal, the optimal phased array imaging display is determined. Based on this optimal phased array imaging display, the interference signal of the undercut reflected wave is determined.
[0066] The interference signal of the reflected wave of the undercut groove is eliminated, and the position, size and shape of the fastener defect are determined based on the defect signal after the interference signal is eliminated.
[0067] In some embodiments, the defect of the fastener may be a crack. The phased array device scans the exposed end face of the bolt with a probe to obtain defect signals located in the probe side thread, the opposite side thread, and the bolt shank thread. Based on the defect signals, the optimal phased array imaging display image is determined. The schematic diagram of the optimal phased array imaging display image is shown as follows: Figure 4 As shown, from Figure 4 It can be seen that the phased array equipment detected the bottom wave of the bolt and multiple defect reflection waves.
[0068] In some embodiments, based on the optimal phased array imaging display, the undercut reflection wave, located on the thread side and before the first thread on the opposite side, as well as other interference waves such as inherent echoes, are determined. After eliminating the undercut reflection wave, a circumferential scan is performed along the probe's end face on the bolt side. The location, size, and shape of the bolt crack are determined based on the remaining signal displayed in the image.
[0069] The fastener phased array defect detection method provided in an embodiment of the present application calls a fastener module and sets data information of the fastener to be detected on the fastener module; performs an overall scan on the fastener to be detected so that the length data in the displayed data information corresponding to the set data information matches the actual length, and tests the sound velocity of the fastener to be detected; adjusts test parameters based on the sound velocity of the fastener to be detected so that the displayed data information is consistent with the actual data information, and adjusts the phased array imaging display to obtain an optimal phased array imaging display image; scans the leaked end face of the fastener to be detected with the adjusted detection sensitivity, and determines the phased array defect detection result of the fastener based on the optimal phased array imaging display image.
[0070] The present application solution adopts phased array defect detection, which can detect defects in all positions and directions of fasteners and has strong ease of use and practicality.
[0071] Compared with the existing conventional A-type pulse ultrasonic detection method, which uses three probes on both sides of the bolt end faces and the rod to detect cracks in different positions and directions in the threaded area on both sides of the bolt. This application adopts an ultrasonic phased array daisy array probe, which can use the end face of the embedded bolt exposed on only one side as the detection surface. It realizes the detection of cracks in various positions and directions of the embedded bolts, and has a three-dimensional imaging display, which is more intuitive and accurately positioned, so that bolts with fatigue cracks can be discovered in time, and corresponding measures can be taken to deal with them, ensuring the good quality of the bolts.
[0072] The present application solution exposes only one side of the end face of the embedded bolt as the detection surface for probe placement, and utilizes ultrasonic phased array technology and a daisy array probe to perform all-round, blind-spot-free detection of cracks in all positions and directions of the entire bolt, thereby solving the problem of large blind spots in all-round detection of embedded bolts using conventional ultrasonic single-chip probes without detection conditions.
