The linkage design of the state indicator lamp and the single-chip microcomputer provides intuitive test feedback. The operator can quickly locate the faulty fan through the indicator lamp without checking the computer interface one by one, thereby reducing the risk of misoperation.
[0044] In a third aspect, a fan testing method is disclosed, referring to Figures 2-5 , which is applied to the fan testing system and comprises the following steps.
[0045] S1, parameter configuration: the industrial computer sends instructions to the single-chip microcomputer through LAN, sets the output voltage of the programmable DC power module, the PWM frequency and duty cycle of the single-chip microcomputer, and selects the FG pull-up resistor mode through the analog switch; The industrial computer sends instructions (such as "channel 1 voltage = 12V, PWM frequency = 25kHz, duty cycle = 50%") to the single-chip microcomputer through the LAN interface, and the single-chip microcomputer transmits the instructions to the programmable DC power supply module JP2 to adjust the output voltage to the rated value of the fan, S2, signal acquisition: the single-chip microcomputer outputs a PWM signal to drive the fan to work, and a high-speed A / D converter synchronously acquires the voltage signal of the current sampling loop and the FG feedback signal; the single-chip microcomputer sends a level signal to the analog switch according to the fan model to switch the FG pull-up resistor working mode.
[0046] The single-chip microcomputer outputs a PWM signal, which is limited by the current-limiting resistor R61 to drive the fan PWM pin. The power device works in a switching mode, and the voltage across the fan is adjusted. The starting current of the fan is sampled through the sampling resistor RS2, and the generated voltage signal is input to the A / D converter. The FG signal is input to the single-chip microcomputer after filtering, and the period of the square wave is measured.
[0047] S3, data processing: the single-chip microcomputer calculates the current effective value, calculates the speed through the FG signal period, and analyzes the width / height ratio of the waveform. The industrial computer compares the measured waveform with the preset standard waveform and marks the abnormality. Current effective value: the root mean square of 100 sampling points is calculated, and the formula is: , error <0.5%, error <0.5%.
[0048] , where, is the i-th current instantaneous value (unit: ampere, A) collected by the high-speed A / D converter.
[0049] n: number of sampling points (such as 100 points, corresponding to a 10ms sampling duration, and the sampling rate is 10kHz).
[0050] Speed calculation: if the fan outputs three FG pulses per revolution, and the measured period is 50ms, the formula is: , where the period is a complete waveform period of the FG signal (unit: seconds, s), which is measured by the single-chip microcomputer timer.
[0051] Pulse number: the number of FG pulses output by the fan per revolution (determined by the fan structure, such as 3 pulses / revolution), so the speed is 60 / (0.05x3)=4000RPM.
[0052] Width / height ratio: calculate the high-level time / period of the FG waveform to evaluate the stability of the duty cycle.
[0053] Industrial computer waveform analysis: receive 1000-point waveform data uploaded by the single-chip microcomputer, and perform cross-correlation operation with the standard waveform (stored in the database), and the formula is: , similarity <90% is marked as abnormal.
[0054] wherein, is the amplitude of the measured waveform (such as current or FG voltage) at time ; and : the amplitude of the standard waveform at time ; : the mean of the measured / standard waveform; N: the number of waveform data points (such as 1000 points, corresponding to a 100 ms duration); : the waveform time offset.
[0055] S4, result output: the industrial computer generates a test report containing the Pass / Fail conclusion and automatically uploads the results to the MES system via the TCP / IP protocol.
[0056] The industrial computer encapsulates the test results (such as current 3.2A, speed 1200RPM, Pass) into JSON format and uploads them to the "fan test" database table of the MES system via the TCP / IP protocol, associating the fan SN code with the production line station number.
[0057] In S2, when the fan starts, the single-chip microcomputer captures the inrush current peak of the current sampling loop at a sampling rate of 10kHz. If the inrush current peak exceeds 150% of the rated current, it is determined that the start is abnormal. The current peak is captured at a sampling rate of 10kHz during the fan start-up stage, which can effectively identify potential defects such as motor winding short circuit and bearing jamming, and simultaneously generate a PDF report containing waveform comparison graphs, parameter lists and determination conclusions, supporting electronic signature and printing archive.
[0058] Correspondingly, the single-chip microcomputer triggers the high-speed A / D to enter burst sampling mode (sampling rate increased to 50kHz) at the same time as the fan start signal (PWM duty cycle from 0%→100%), continuously collecting current data for the first 100ms. The peak detection algorithm: real-time comparison of the current sampling value with the historical maximum value, recording the start current peak (such as a fan with rated current of 2A, threshold set to 3A), exceeding which is determined as start-up abnormality, and the abnormality indicator light works.
[0059] At the same time, in step S3, the industrial computer calculates the similarity between the measured waveform and the standard waveform through the cross-correlation algorithm, and triggers an alarm when the similarity is <90%, while recording the timestamp and parameter deviation value of the abnormal point. The cross-correlation algorithm quantitatively evaluates the signal consistency by calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient of the measured waveform and the standard waveform. When the similarity is <90%, the system automatically marks the waveform distortion point (such as FG signal missing pulse, current ripple too large) and records the timestamp and parameter deviation.
[0060] First, the measured waveform and the standardized waveform need to be de-meaned, normalized, and processed to eliminate DC bias and amplitude differences. The 1-second long waveform is divided into 10 100ms windows, and the cross-correlation coefficient is calculated for each window. If the similarity of any window is <90%, it is determined to be abnormal. When a sharp drop in similarity is detected, the timestamp corresponding to the abnormal point is marked, and the current mutation value and FG frequency jump value at that time are extracted.
[0061] In addition, it also includes a limit test link. Through the programmable DC power module JP2, ±10% rated voltage fluctuation is simulated, with a duration of ≥2min. The current ripple coefficient and speed fluctuation ratio of the fan under voltage fluctuation are collected. The programmable DC power module JP2 receives single-chip microcomputer instructions, with a period of 100 milliseconds, and superimposes ±10% disturbance on the basis of the rated voltage (such as 12V fan test voltage circulating between 10.8V-13.2V), for 2 minutes. The single-chip microcomputer collects current ripple (effective value) and FG cycle fluctuation at a sampling rate of 2kHz, and calculates: Current ripple coefficient: (standard value ≤8%); Where, : the effective value of current ripple (unit: A), that is, the amplitude of the alternating component.
[0062] : the average value of the DC component of the current (unit: A).
[0063] Rotational fluctuation rate: ; Where, : the maximum / minimum speed during the test (unit: RPM).
[0064] : the average speed during the test (unit: RPM) If the current ripple coefficient is >15% or the speed fluctuation rate is >10%, it is determined that the fan power supply suppression capability is insufficient.
[0065] The implementation principle of the fan test system, test method and test device of the embodiment of the application is as follows: a programmable DC power supply module JP is used to provide adjustable voltage for the fan and support multi-channel expansion, a PWM drive circuit in the fan test channel module receives a PWM signal generated by a single-chip microcomputer through a current limiting resistor R61 to drive the fan, a current sampling loop collects a current signal through a sampling resistor RS2 and an operational amplifier, an FG waveform acquisition circuit acquires a speed feedback signal by using a pull-up resistor network (a first resistor R1 / a second resistor R2 / a third resistor R3) in combination with an analog switch switching mode, the two types of signals are transmitted to the single-chip microcomputer through a high-speed A / D converter to calculate data such as current effective value, speed, waveform parameters and the like in real time, an industrial computer receives data through a LAN interface and performs waveform comparison, cross-correlation analysis and the like, and simultaneously uploads test results to a MES system through a TCP / IP protocol; the test method covers parameter configuration, multi-channel synchronous acquisition, start-up surge detection, limit condition simulation (such as ±10% voltage fluctuation) and automatic report generation, realizes precise test and digital management of performance indexes such as fan current, speed and stability, and improves test efficiency, compatibility and intelligent level through hardware modular design and software algorithm optimization.
