Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention patent relates to the field of materials monitoring technology, specifically to an ultrasonic nonlinear static parameter monitoring method for creep damage of high-temperature alloy components. Background Technology

[0002] The creep damage evolution process of high-temperature alloys can be divided into three typical stages: the initial deceleration stage is dominated by dislocation slip, and the strain rate gradually decreases; the steady-state stage forms a dynamic balance between hardening and recovery, characterized by linear strain accumulation; and the final acceleration stage is characterized by exponential increase in strain rate due to the aggregation of grain boundary voids until fracture. During this process, the microstructure gradually evolves from dislocation tangles to an intergranular crack network, posing a significant challenge to material lifetime prediction. Traditional nonlinear ultrasonic methods rely on second-harmonic nonlinear parameters (…). The measurement of the phase velocity was performed, but due to the severe disruption of the phase velocity matching conditions in the middle and later stages, its response exhibited a non-monotonic characteristic of first increasing and then decreasing, forming an underdetermined inverse problem—that is... The creep time exhibits a non-linear trend, making it impossible to determine a unique creep time based on this parameter, and thus to determine the damage state.

[0003] Research shows that using static component nonlinear parameters ( It does not rely on strict phase velocity matching conditions; even in the presence of group velocity mismatch, its linear relationship with dislocation density remains intact. This characteristic stems from the long-range interaction mechanism between the stress field and the defect. The creep exhibits monotonically increasing growth throughout its entire lifespan, and continues to respond, especially during the accelerated crack propagation phase. This characteristic provides a physical basis for online assessment of the entire lifespan of high-temperature components and is expected to solve the challenges of creep monitoring and remaining life prediction for critical engineering components such as aero-engine blades.

[0044] S4. The signal is generated by a signal generator and passed through an attenuator to excite the fundamental frequency ultrasonic waves in the component to be monitored through the ultrasonic probe at the signal excitation end;

[0045] Preferably, in S4, the signal generator adopts a RAM-5000SNAP nonlinear high-energy ultrasonic testing system. This signal generator has microsecond-level triggering accuracy and, in conjunction with a Hanning window modulation wave, can achieve high time resolution excitation. The adjustable attenuation range of the attenuator is 10-60dB, and the SNR is ≥20dB. In addition, the attenuator also has the following functions: (1) It accurately reduces the signal power through a resistor network to prevent the receiving circuit from overloading or saturating, protect sensitive electronic components, and thus achieve dynamic adjustment of the input signal amplitude; (2) The calibrated attenuator can be used to compensate for system errors (such as cable loss), ensure uniform amplitude measurement benchmark, and optimize measurement accuracy; (3) Noise suppression function.

[0047] Preferably, in S5, the amplifier is a low-noise amplifier with a fixed gain of 60dB, which effectively reduces the impact of transmission loss on the results; at the same time, the amplifier can also perform automatic gain control (AGC) to compensate for signal attenuation caused by increased sound path.

[0048] Preferably, the cloud processing system includes a fast Fourier transform module, a parameter extraction module, a data processing module, and a wireless communication module;

[0049] It is worth emphasizing that the signal excitation end, signal receiving end, signal generator, attenuator, amplifier, and oscilloscope are all electrically connected to the cloud processing system.

[0058] Phase III: When When the creep value is >1.4 to 1.5, the monitored component is in the late stage of creep, with micropores coalescing and microcracks forming and propagating; it is worth noting here that... During the accelerated creep phase (stage III), the hourly rate of change exceeds 3%, and a critical damage transition can be captured with a resolution of 0.1 h.

[0059] End of Stage III: When the static component nonlinear parameter The parameter begins to decrease, i.e., the nonlinear parameter. As the descent begins, macroscopic cracks form, and the component starts to fracture and fail. At this point, the component under monitoring is in the final stage of stage III. That is, when the monitored parameters... When the temperature changes from rising to falling, the component to be monitored has entered the countdown to fracture, requiring an early warning and immediate cessation of inspection.

[0060] To better understand the monitoring method provided by this invention, the following description is provided in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0061] Taking typical high-temperature alloys HP40 (HP40 is a nickel-based cast high-temperature alloy commonly used in equipment such as ethylene cracking furnace tubes and hydrogen conversion furnace tubes; in the aerospace field, HP40 is also used to manufacture high-temperature engine components, such as combustion chamber liners) and P92 (P92 steel is a representative of third-generation martensitic heat-resistant steel, specifically designed for ultra-supercritical thermal power units; this material has been applied in 85% of domestic megawatt-class ultra-supercritical units, especially in the nuclear power field, where P92 is commonly used in fourth-generation sodium-cooled reactor pressure vessels) as examples, according to GB / T 2039-2012 "Metallic Materials Uniaxial Tensile Creep Test Method", a time-sharing loading creep method was used to prepare specimens with different degrees of damage to verify the accuracy of the monitoring structure proposed in this invention. The creep time setting covers the entire creep life cycle.

[0062] On the damaged HP40 sample, the frequency that matches the group velocity at zero frequency of S0 mode in S4 mode is selected as the excitation mode. In this example, the frequency is 4.8MHz, the number of cycles is 5, a 5MHz transducer is used at the signal excitation end, a 0.5MHz transducer is used at the signal receiving end, and the corresponding wedge incident angle is 27.7°.

[0063] On the damaged P92 sample, the frequency that matches the group velocity at zero frequency of S0 mode in S3 mode is selected as the excitation mode. In this example, the frequency is 5.6MHz, the number of cycles is 10, a 5MHz transducer is used at the signal excitation end, a 0.5MHz transducer is used at the signal receiving end, and the corresponding wedge incident angle is 27°.

[0064] Calculate the creep time corresponding to each of the two types of samples above. Values ​​(obtained after multiple variance control errors) and establish static component nonlinear parameters. With creep time Linear relationship, such as Figure 3 (b) and Figure 4 As shown in (b);

[0065] To more intuitively relate to the nonlinear parameters dependent on second harmonics Compared with traditional nonlinear ultrasonic methods, this embodiment also includes the second harmonic nonlinear parameters of the two types of samples. With creep time Linear relationship, such as Figure 3 (a) and Figure 4 As shown in (a);

[0066] Will Figure 3 (a) and Figure 3 (b) Figure 4 (a) and Figure 4 A comparison in (b) shows that the second harmonic nonlinear parameter is dependent on... Traditional nonlinear ultrasound methods exhibit response that varies with creep time. The changes exhibit obvious nonlinear characteristics, especially in the early stages of creep ( ), The creep intensity gradually increases with damage accumulation, exhibiting good monotonicity and sensitivity; however, when creep enters the middle and late stages (after 600 h, fracture occurs around 960 h), due to the proliferation of microcracks, pore connections, and degradation of the elastic modulus within the material, the nonlinear acoustic response exhibits "oversaturation" or scattering enhancement effects, leading to... The signal no longer rises continuously with increasing damage; instead, it exhibits a trend of decline, attenuation, and even fluctuation. In contrast, the signal based on the static component nonlinear parameters... It maintains good monotonic growth characteristics within the same creep stage, that is... The signal increases almost linearly throughout the creep process, and even in the middle and late stages when material properties deteriorate significantly and the macroscopic creep rate accelerates, it can still continuously reflect the cumulative damage.

[0067] Therefore, in A curve will appear with "a Two corresponding The non-unique mapping phenomenon of "" leads to the use of There are ambiguities and potential for misjudgment when assessing creep damage; The curves always maintain a monotonically reversible relationship, and there is no problem of multiple values ​​corresponding, which significantly improves the certainty and accuracy of damage assessment.

[0068] Furthermore, this phenomenon also confirms the difference between the two types of nonlinear parameters from a mechanistic perspective: It is more sensitive to local elastic distortion and modulation effects in materials. When damage develops to a certain critical level, local scattering, interface slip, and inter-crack interactions can cause second harmonic signal distortion. This more directly reflects the overall nonlinear cumulative effect and has a stronger ability to resist local modal disturbances and structural degradation. Therefore, the static component nonlinear parameters... As a key criterion, it is more helpful to achieve stable and reliable creep damage characterization throughout the entire life cycle.

[0069] Select healthy HP40 and P92 samples, and calculate the static component nonlinear parameters of the HP40 and P92 healthy samples respectively. ,right Normalization is performed to obtain nonlinear parameters. Linear relationship with creep time (e.g.) Figure 5 (a) and Figure 5As shown in (b), the monitoring results of the damaged components HP40 and P92 under monitoring are compared with those of the traditional nonlinear monitoring method, as illustrated in Tables 1 and 2 below.

[0071]

[0072] Table 2 Comparison of Damage Monitoring Results at P92 (650℃, 115MPa)

[0073]

[0074] In summary, the predicted structural error between the monitoring method provided by this invention and the two samples with known different damage degrees prepared in the examples is less than 8%. That is, the monitoring method provided by this invention effectively avoids the underdetermined inverse problem formed by traditional nonlinear monitoring methods, and can accurately determine the unique creep time and the corresponding damage degree and life stage, providing a basis for online assessment of the full-cycle creep damage state of high-temperature alloy components.
