[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0037] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., used in this application can be used to describe various elements, but these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the first element from the second element. The terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, used in this application, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The term "multiple" used in this application refers to two or more. The term "and / or" used in this application refers to one of the embodiments, or any combination of multiple embodiments.

[0038] This application provides a transformer oil degassing device for an oil-immersed transformer. In one exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the device includes at least a transformer 01, a metering module 02, and a degassing module 03; the degassing module 03 includes an ultrasonic array 04 and a degassing cylinder 05, and the degassing cylinder includes an oil inlet 06. The ultrasonic array 04 is configured perpendicular to the bottom of the degassing cylinder 05, and the ultrasonic array 04 is arranged in a grid-like equidistant pattern.

[0039] The metering module 02 is used to obtain transformer oil to be degassed from transformer 01 and inject the transformer oil into degassed cylinder 05 through oil inlet 06.

[0040] In practical applications, oil-immersed transformers are widely used in the electrical field due to their advantages such as safety, low noise, and ease of maintenance. The principle of an oil-immersed transformer is to immerse the entire transformer equipment in transformer oil, which provides functions such as cooling, noise reduction, and arc extinguishing. However, during operation, transformers generate some dissolved gases. These dissolved gases mainly originate from the decomposition products of transformer oil and solid insulation materials under electrothermal fault conditions. For example, under overheating or partial discharge conditions, hydrogen atoms in the oil may react with other elements to generate hydrogen gas. When the temperature rises to a certain level, the oil undergoes pyrolysis, producing various hydrocarbon gases, including methane, ethane, and ethylene. When a severe arc discharge occurs, acetylene is produced. These dissolved gases are trapped in the transformer oil and cannot be actively discharged, affecting the operation of the oil-immersed transformer. It is necessary to remove these dissolved gases. Furthermore, these dissolved gases can be detected by oil chromatography to monitor the operating status and / or fault status of the oil-immersed transformer.

[0041] To address this, this application applies ultrasonic waves to the transformer oil to be degassed using an ultrasonic array, thereby vibrating the transformer oil and releasing the dissolved gases trapped within it. By configuring the ultrasonic array perpendicular to the bottom of the degassing cylinder, the ultrasonic vibration effect is enhanced, thus improving the degassing efficiency of the transformer oil.

[0042] During implementation, the quantitative module 02 starts the motor to draw transformer oil to be degassed from the transformer. After drawing the transformer oil, the motor is started again to inject the transformer oil into the degassed cylinder 05 through the oil inlet 06.

[0043] In real-world scenarios, the gas produced by transformer 01 may accumulate in a fixed area, and the location where the metering module 02 extracts transformer oil may be relatively fixed. This means that the extracted transformer oil to be degassed may not contain all the gas produced by transformer 01, affecting the degassed effect. To address this, during the process of obtaining the transformer oil to be degassed, the metering module 02 can extract the transformer oil to be degassed and then inject it back into the transformer. This extraction and injection operation is repeated until the number of operations reaches a threshold, at which point the last extracted transformer oil to be degassed is obtained.

[0044] The degassing module 03 is used to activate the ultrasonic array 04 to perform ultrasonic vibration degassing on the transformer oil, thereby obtaining the degassed target transformer oil.

[0045] During implementation, after detecting transformer oil, the degassing module 03 sends a start command to the ultrasonic array 04. Upon activation, the ultrasonic array 04 emits ultrasonic waves, which break the transformer oil into tiny droplets, releasing the dissolved gases trapped within the oil and yielding the degassed target transformer oil. Furthermore, the dissolved gases extracted from the transformer oil can also be obtained.

[0046] During the process, multiple ultrasonic generators in the degassing cylinder are arranged in a grid-like equidistant manner, so that all parts of the degassing cylinder are subjected to strong ultrasonic vibration, which improves the effect of ultrasonic vibration and thus improves the degassing effect and degassing volume of transformer oil.

[0047] It should be noted that, after conducting numerous experiments and simulations, the inventors of this application discovered that vertically mounting the ultrasonic generator at the bottom of the degassing cylinder and arranging it in a grid-like equidistant manner can significantly improve the degassing efficiency and degassing volume.

[0048] Furthermore, before the quantitative module obtains the transformer oil to be degassed, the degassing cylinder 05 can be evacuated to a vacuum state to avoid interference from other gases on the purity of the dissolved gas. This vacuum state can be achieved using an external device, such as a vacuum pump. Further, the degassing cylinder 05 can be gas-purified using nitrogen or inert gas to ensure its cleanliness. Optionally, the degassing cylinder 05 is in a vacuum state.

[0049] The aforementioned transformer oil degassing device for an oil-immersed transformer extracts transformer oil to be degassed from the transformer through a metering module. The transformer oil is then injected into a degassing module connected to the metering module through the inlet of a degassing cylinder. The degassing module includes a degassing cylinder. The degassing module activates an ultrasonic array perpendicular to the bottom of the degassing cylinder to perform ultrasonic vibration degassing. The ultrasonic vibration removes the gas trapped in the transformer oil, resulting in degassed target transformer oil. The vertically deployed ultrasonic array enhances the effect of the ultrasonic waves, increasing the degassing volume and efficiency. Furthermore, the deployment of the ultrasonic array in a grid-like equidistant arrangement further enhances the effect of the ultrasonic waves, thereby improving the degassing efficiency.

[0050] Based on the above exemplary embodiment, the following describes a transformer oil degassing device for an oil-immersed transformer in one or more exemplary embodiments, specifically including the following:

[0051] During the process of transferring transformer oil in the metering module 02, the transformer oil to be degassed can be pulsed into the degassing cylinder 05 via pulse injection; in one optional embodiment provided in this application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the metering module 02 also includes a first motor 021 and a micro nozzle 022. The micro nozzle 022 is disposed at the oil inlet 06, and the first motor 021 and the micro nozzle 022 are connected through a first pipe 023.

[0052] The first motor 021 is used to extract transformer oil from the transformer 01, and to transmit the transformer oil to the micro nozzle 022 through the first pipe 023. The micro nozzle 022 is used to inject the transformer oil into the degassing cylinder 05 in a pulse manner.

[0053] During implementation, the first motor 021 pulls the piston to extract transformer oil from the transformer 01. After extraction, the piston pushes the transformer oil through the first pipe 023 into the micro nozzle 022. The transformer oil is injected into the degassing cylinder 05 through the micro nozzle. The first motor 021 repeatedly executes the "start-stop-start" operation to inject the transformer oil into the degassing cylinder 05 in a pulse manner. Optionally, the transformer oil in the degassing cylinder includes atomized transformer oil.

[0054] One optional implementation method provided in this application is to inject transformer oil by pulse, so that each batch of injected transformer oil can be fully vibrated by ultrasonic vibration, avoiding the problem that the dissolved gas volume is too small and is covered by transformer oil and cannot be discharged, thereby improving the degassing amount and degassing efficiency of transformer oil.

[0055] In practical scenarios, an ultrasonic array may include multiple transducers, which are arranged in a grid pattern at equal intervals to enhance the generated ultrasonic waves; in one optional embodiment provided in this application, such as Figure 3 As shown, the ultrasonic array 04 includes at least three quartz oscillators 031; the ultrasonic array generates ultrasonic standing waves after startup; the frequency generated by the ultrasonic array 04 includes at least 70 kHz.

[0056] An ultrasonic standing wave refers to the phenomenon where two ultrasonic waves of the same frequency and amplitude, propagating in opposite directions, meet in space and interfere to form a stable waveform. In a standing wave, the energy distribution is fixed and does not shift like that of a traveling wave. Standing waves have a specific spatial structure, containing points (called nodes) where the amplitude is always zero, and points (called antinodes) where the amplitude reaches its maximum. The distance between nodes and antinodes depends on the wavelength of the ultrasonic waves that generate the standing wave.

[0057] After extensive experiments and simulations, the inventors of this application discovered that when the frequency generated by the ultrasonic array 04 is 70kHz, the sound pressure distribution exhibits a critical state, manifested as a concentric ring, which can increase the amplitude and internal pressure of the oil, accelerate the movement and escape of gas molecules, and the ultrasonic standing wave mode can disrupt the static surface of the oil and promote gas diffusion.

[0058] One optional implementation provided in this application uses ultrasonic standing waves generated by a quartz diaphragm 031 perpendicular to the degassing cylinder 05 to perform ultrasonic vibration degassing on the transformer oil, thereby improving the degassing efficiency and also increasing the gas diffusion rate, preventing dissolved gas from being encapsulated by the transformer oil again.

[0059] In practical scenarios, a gas collection module can be configured to collect dissolved gases extracted from transformer oil. The operating status and / or fault status of the transformer can be determined by oil chromatography detection of the dissolved gases. In one optional embodiment provided in this application, such as... Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a gas collection module 041, which includes a second motor 042. The gas collection module 041 is connected to the degassing cylinder 05 through the exhaust port 043 of the degassing cylinder 05.

[0060] The gas collection module 041 is used to draw dissolved gas extracted from the transformer oil from the degassing cylinder 05 via the second motor 042.

[0061] During implementation, the gas collection module 041 starts the second motor 042 to pull the piston and draw the dissolved gas extracted from the transformer oil in the degassing cylinder 05; furthermore, the second motor 042 can push the piston to discharge the dissolved gas from the gas collection module 041, or to transfer the dissolved gas to the oil chromatography detection equipment.

[0062] Furthermore, before degassing, the gas collection module 041 can also start the second motor 042 to inject nitrogen and / or inert gas into the degassing cylinder 05 to clean the degassing cylinder, so as to ensure the cleanliness of the degassing cylinder.

[0063] One optional implementation provided in this application uses an independent gas collection module 041 to discharge dissolved gas, thereby preventing dissolved gas from redissolving into the transformer oil and improving the purity of the degassed transformer oil.

[0064] In practical scenarios, the degassed transformer oil can be injected back into transformer 01 to improve the efficiency of transformer oil use; in one optional embodiment provided in this application, such as Figure 5 As shown, the degassing module 03 also includes an oil pump 051, which is connected to the degassing cylinder 05 through the oil outlet 052 of the degassing cylinder 05.

[0065] Oil pump 051 is used to pump the target transformer oil back to transformer 01 through oil drain port 052.

[0066] During implementation, the oil pump 051 in the degassing cylinder 05 starts to draw the target transformer oil and injects the target transformer oil back to the transformer 01 through the pipeline.

[0067] One optional implementation provided in this application is to use an oil pump 051 to inject the target transformer oil back into the transformer 01, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of the transformer oil and avoiding waste of the transformer oil.

[0068] In one embodiment, see Figure 6This document illustrates a schematic diagram of a transformer oil degassing device for an oil-immersed transformer according to an embodiment of this application. The device includes a degassing cylinder 601, a quartz vibrator 602 of an ultrasonic array, an oil pump 603, a metering cylinder 604, a first motor 605 for the metering cylinder 604, a gas collecting cylinder 606, a second motor 607 for the gas collecting cylinder 606, solenoid valves 608, 609, 610, and 611, a micro nozzle 612, and a vacuum pump 613, wherein:

[0069] A miniature nozzle 612 is installed at the oil inlet of the degassing cylinder 601. The degassing cylinder 601 is connected to the metering cylinder 604 via a solenoid valve 608. The oil outlet of the degassing cylinder 601 is connected to the transformer oil tank via an oil pump 603. The oil inlet is located at the top of the degassing cylinder 601, and the oil outlet is located at the bottom of the degassing cylinder 601. The degassing cylinder 601 is connected to the gas collecting cylinder 606 via a solenoid valve 609. The oil pump 603 is used to inject the degassed target transformer oil back into the transformer oil tank.

[0070] The quartz transducers 602 of the ultrasonic array are arranged vertically upwards at the bottom of the degassing cylinder 601. The quartz transducers 602 of the ultrasonic array are used to generate ultrasonic waves for ultrasonic vibration degassing.

[0071] The metering cylinder 604 is connected to the transformer oil tank via solenoid valve 610. The metering cylinder 604 is also connected to the degassing cylinder 601 via solenoid valve 608. The metering cylinder 604 is also connected to solenoid valve 611. Solenoid valves 608, 610, and 611 are connected via a three-way pipe. The first motor 605 of the metering cylinder 604 is used to extract and transfer transformer oil.

[0072] The second motor 607 of the gas collecting cylinder 606 is used to collect the dissolved gas released from the degassing cylinder 601 and discharge the dissolved gas.

[0073] Vacuum pump 613 is connected to degassing cylinder 601 through the exhaust port of degassing cylinder 601. Vacuum pump 613 is used to evacuate degassing cylinder 601 to a vacuum state between degassing operations.

[0074] It should be noted that the above Figure 6 The modules, components, and / or units shown can be replaced with the ones described above in actual scenarios, depending on the usage requirements. Figures 1 to 5 The provided module, component, and / or unit means that it may not be needed in a real-world scenario. Figure 6 All the modules, components and / or units shown can solve the technical problem and achieve the technical effect.

[0075] Each module in the transformer oil degassing device of the aforementioned oil-immersed transformer can be controlled entirely or partially through software, hardware, or a combination thereof. These modules can be embedded in or independent of the processor in a computer device in hardware form, or stored in the memory of a computer device in software form, so that the processor can call and execute the corresponding operations of each module.

[0076] It should be noted that the solution provided by the above-mentioned device is similar to the solution described in the following method. Therefore, the specific limitations of the above-mentioned one or more embodiments of the transformer oil degassing device for oil-immersed transformers can be found in the following limitations of the transformer oil degassing method for oil-immersed transformers. Correspondingly, the steps performed in the following method can also be found in the modules and / or units of the above-mentioned device, and will not be repeated hereafter.

[0077] The transformer oil degassing method for oil-immersed transformers provided in this application embodiment can be applied to... Figures 1 to 5 In any of the application environments shown. In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, a method for degassing transformer oil in an oil-immersed transformer is provided, including the following steps 701 to 702.

[0078] Step 701: The metering module obtains the transformer oil to be degassed from the transformer and injects the transformer oil into the degassing cylinder through the oil inlet.

[0079] In this application, transformer oil refers to the transformer oil in an oil-immersed transformer. The transformer oil can be mineral oil, such as silicone oil, or synthetic ester oil. During operation, the transformer oil reacts with the transformer oil to generate dissolved gases. These dissolved gases are encapsulated by the transformer oil, forming transformer oil to be degassed.

[0080] During implementation, the metering module draws transformer oil to be degassed from the transformer through a motor, and then injects the transformer oil into the degassing cylinder through the oil inlet through the motor.

[0081] In real-world scenarios, the gases produced by the transformer may accumulate in a fixed area, and the location where the quantitative module extracts transformer oil may be relatively fixed. This means that the extracted transformer oil to be degassed may not contain all the gases produced by the transformer, affecting the degassed effect. To address this, during the process of obtaining the transformer oil to be degassed, the quantitative module can extract the transformer oil to be degassed and then inject it back into the transformer. This extraction and injection operation is repeated until the number of operations reaches a threshold, at which point the last extracted transformer oil to be degassed is obtained.

[0082] Step 702: The degassing module uses an ultrasonic array to degas the transformer oil via ultrasonic vibration, thereby obtaining the degassed target transformer oil.

[0083] During implementation, the degassing module activates the ultrasonic array, using ultrasonic waves generated by the array to degas the transformer oil through ultrasonic vibration, resulting in the degassed target transformer oil. Furthermore, dissolved gases in the transformer oil can also be obtained.

[0084] Furthermore, before the quantitative module obtains the transformer oil to be degassed, the degassing cylinder can be evacuated to a vacuum state to avoid interference from other gases on the purity of the dissolved gas. This vacuum state can be achieved using an external device, such as a vacuum pump. Further, the degassing cylinder can be gas-purified using nitrogen or inert gas to ensure its cleanliness. Optionally, the degassing cylinder is in a vacuum state.

[0085] In addition, after the degassing process is completed, a settling process can be carried out to allow the degassed transformer oil and dissolved gas to settle and achieve gas-liquid balance.

[0086] In the above-mentioned method for degassing transformer oil in an oil-immersed transformer, transformer oil to be degassed is extracted from the transformer through a metering module. The transformer oil is then injected into a degassing module connected to the metering module through the inlet of the degassing cylinder. The degassing module includes a degassing cylinder. The degassing module activates an ultrasonic array perpendicular to the bottom of the degassing cylinder to perform ultrasonic vibration degassing. The gas trapped in the transformer oil is removed by ultrasonic vibration, resulting in degassed target transformer oil. The vertically deployed ultrasonic array enhances the effect of ultrasonic waves, increasing the degassing amount and efficiency. Furthermore, the ultrasonic array is deployed in a grid-like equidistant arrangement, further enhancing the effect of ultrasonic waves and thus improving the degassing efficiency.

[0087] Based on the above exemplary embodiment, the following provides a method for degassing transformer oil in an oil-immersed transformer in one or more exemplary embodiments, specifically including the following contents.

[0088] During the process of extracting transformer oil using the quantitative module, the transformer oil can be injected in batches into the degassing cylinder via pulse injection for degassing treatment, thereby improving the effectiveness of degassing; in one optional embodiment provided in this application, such as Figure 8 As shown, step 701 includes step 801:

[0089] Step 801: The first motor of the metering module draws transformer oil from the transformer, transmits the transformer oil through the first pipeline to the micro nozzle of the metering module, and cooperates with the micro nozzle to pulse the transformer oil into the degassing cylinder.

[0090] During implementation, the quantitative module starts the first motor to pull the piston to draw transformer oil from the transformer, pushes the piston through the first pipe to press the transformer oil into the micro nozzle, and injects the transformer oil into the degassing cylinder in a "start-stop-start" cycle.

[0091] Furthermore, when the degassing cylinder is under vacuum, the injected transformer oil can be atomized by air pressure, resulting in a smaller volume of atomized transformer oil. For example, when the degassing cylinder is under vacuum, the oil sample entering the degassing cylinder in a pulse manner is in the form of oil droplets or oil mist, which has a very large surface area, thus enabling effective degassing.

[0092] One optional implementation provided in this application uses pulse injection to degas the transformer oil in batches using an ultrasonic array. Degassing small batches of transformer oil avoids the transformer oil re-encapsulating small volumes of gas, thus improving degassing efficiency.

[0093] After obtaining the target transformer oil, it can be injected back into the transformer via the oil pump of the degassing cylinder, realizing the recycling of the transformer oil; in one optional embodiment provided in this application, such as Figure 9 As shown, it also includes step 901:

[0094] Step 901: The oil pump included in the degassing module injects the target transformer oil back into the transformer through the oil drain port.

[0095] During implementation, the degassing module starts the oil pump connected to the degassing cylinder to extract the degassed target transformer oil and inject it back into the transformer through the drain port, thus realizing the reuse of transformer oil.

[0096] In one optional embodiment provided in this application, the degassed target transformer oil is injected back into the transformer through the drain port using an oil pump, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of the transformer oil.

[0097] It should be noted that the transformer oil degassing method for an oil-immersed transformer provided in one or more embodiments of this application is illustrated using only one dissolved gas collection process as an example. In actual scenarios, the dissolved gas collection process may be performed multiple times. Therefore, in practical applications, some steps in the above one or more embodiments may be repeatedly executed a preset number of times. For example, steps 701 to 702 may be executed again after the dissolved gas is obtained.

[0107] It should be noted that in one or more embodiments provided above, each module and the units included in each module can be controlled by a unified control module. For example, they can be controlled by a degassing control module to control each module to perform degassing treatment.

[0108] This application also provides one or more simulation examples to support and illustrate the technical solution of this application, as described below.

[0109] The first simulation example provided in this application constructs a three-dimensional model of an ultrasonic-enhanced degassing experiment in the COMSOL simulation system, and sets the structural and operational parameters of the ultrasonic-enhanced degassing experiment; defines the physical field and boundary conditions of the ultrasonic-enhanced hydrometallurgical experiment; divides the three-dimensional model of the ultrasonic-enhanced degassing experiment into different arrangement forms according to the inherent characteristics of ultrasound; uses the pressure acoustics-solid mechanics-electrostatics module for simulation, solves the three-dimensional model of the ultrasonic-enhanced degassing experiment, and simultaneously superimposes the frequency domain to the time domain to obtain the total sound pressure of the surface sound field, the total sound pressure of the XY section, and the total sound pressure distribution map of the isosurface of the ultrasonic array-enhanced degassing experiment. During execution, the acoustic physics module and frequency domain analysis method are selected in the COMSOL simulation system; during execution, the model parameters and model variables of the reaction chamber and ultrasonic transducer in the ultrasonic-enhanced degassing experiment are defined; during execution, the three-dimensional model of the reaction chamber and ultrasonic transducer of the ultrasonic-enhanced degassing experiment is constructed. During the execution process, when defining the boundary conditions of the ultrasonic enhanced degassing experiment, the pressure acoustic model in the COMSOL simulation system was used to convert the ultrasonic frequency and power into sound pressure parameters, and the boundary conditions of the ultrasonic enhanced degassing experiment in the COMSOL system were defined by the sound pressure parameters. During the execution process, the three-dimensional model was divided into different shapes and arrays according to the inherent characteristics of ultrasound. (1) The three-dimensional model of the ultrasonic transducer was set to use long strip ultrasonic diaphragms placed vertically at the bottom of the degassing cylinder to form a ring array; (2) The three-dimensional model of the ultrasonic transducer was set to use grid ultrasonic diaphragms placed horizontally at a certain distance from the bottom of the degassing cylinder to form a grid array. During the execution process, when constructing the reaction chamber and the three-dimensional model of the ultrasonic enhanced degassing experiment, the array of the ultrasonic transducers was completely immersed in transformer oil. During the execution process, the color changes in the total sound pressure and the total sound pressure distribution diagrams of the X and Y sections were used to analyze the distribution of the sound field during the enhancement process by the ultrasonic operation parameters and structural parameters, and to obtain the optimal experimental condition parameters.

[0110] For example, the internal structure diagram of the elongated ultrasonic array degassing cylinder is as follows: Figure 11 As shown.

[0111] The second simulation example provided in this application establishes a three-dimensional model of a cylindrical degassing cylinder and a strip-shaped ultrasonic array in COMSOL, and uses a pressure acoustic-solid mechanics model for simulation. The cylindrical degassing cylinder has a radius of 40mm and a height of 100mm. Three uniformly distributed strip-shaped ultrasonic transducer arrays are placed at the bottom. The strip transducers are 2mm wide, 10mm long, and 1mm thick, and are all immersed in transformer oil, forming a unified structure in the system. The transducers used are made of PZT-4 material. The simulated ultrasonic power is 100W. The three-dimensional model of the strip-shaped ultrasonic transducer array in the ultrasonic-enhanced degassing experiment is solved, and the sound field and sound pressure distribution of the strip-shaped ultrasonic transducers in the cylindrical degassing cylinder cavity at different frequencies are visualized, obtaining surface, cross-sectional, and isosurface sound pressure distribution maps of the ultrasonic array-enhanced degassing experiment.

[0112] For example, the visualized total sound pressure distribution at 30 kHz obtained by the method of generating visualized ultrasonic physical fields based on ultrasonic simulation is shown below. Figure 12 As shown, this includes the total sound pressure distribution of the sound field. Figure 12 (a) and total sound pressure distribution in the XY section Figure 12 (b); The visualized total sound pressure distribution at 90 kHz obtained by the method of generating visualized ultrasonic physical fields based on ultrasonic simulation is shown below. Figure 13 As shown, this includes the total sound pressure distribution of the sound field. Figure 13 (a) and the total sound pressure distribution in the XY section. Figure 13 (b).

[0113] The third simulation example provided in this application establishes a three-dimensional model of a cylindrical degassing cylinder and a grid ultrasonic array in COMSOL, and uses a pressure acoustic-solid mechanics model for simulation. The cylindrical degassing cylinder has a radius of 40mm and a height of 100mm. A circular support with the same inner diameter as the cylinder is installed 10mm from the bottom. Ten square ultrasonic transducers are evenly distributed on the support, each with a grid size of 5mm long, 5mm wide, and 2mm thick. The above structures form a unified whole in the system and are completely immersed in transformer oil. The transducers used are made of PZT-4 material. The simulated ultrasonic power is 100W. The three-dimensional model of the grid ultrasonic transducer array in the ultrasonic-enhanced degassing experiment is solved, and the sound field and sound pressure distribution of the elongated ultrasonic transducer in the cylindrical degassing cylinder cavity at different frequencies are visualized, obtaining the surface, cross-sectional, and isosurface sound pressure distribution maps of the ultrasonic array-enhanced degassing experiment.

[0114] For example, the internal structure diagram of a grid-type ultrasonic array degassing cylinder is as follows: Figure 14 As shown, the visualized total sound pressure distribution at 50kHz, obtained by the method of generating visualized ultrasonic physical fields based on ultrasonic simulation, is as follows. Figure 15 As shown, this includes the total sound pressure distribution of the sound field. Figure 15 (a) and total sound pressure distribution in the XY section Figure 15 (b); The visualized total sound pressure distribution at 70 kHz obtained by the method of generating visualized ultrasonic physical fields based on ultrasonic simulation is shown below. Figure 16 As shown, this includes the total sound pressure distribution of the sound field. Figure 16 (a) and total sound pressure distribution in the XY section Figure 16 (b); The visualized total sound pressure distribution at 90 kHz obtained by the method of generating visualized ultrasonic physical fields based on ultrasonic simulation is shown below. Figure 17 As shown, this includes the total sound pressure distribution of the sound field. Figure 17 (a) and total sound pressure distribution in the XXY section Figure 17 (b).

[0115] Therefore, it is evident that, assuming consistent temperature, ultrasonic transducer parameters, degassing cylinder size, and ultrasonic frequency, frequency has a significant impact on sound pressure distribution. Different types of ultrasonic arrays exhibit considerable differences in sound pressure distribution. Generally, grid-type transducers outperform vertical strip transducers in both sound pressure intensity and uniformity. Different arrangements lead to significant differences in sound pressure distribution. In a grid-type ultrasonic array configuration, different frequencies result in different sound pressure distribution patterns. At lower frequencies, the sound pressure is higher at the bottom and relatively lower at the top; while at higher frequencies, the sound pressure becomes more uniform in the vertical direction. In particular, at a frequency of 70 kHz, the sound pressure distribution exhibits a critical state, resembling concentric rings. When a vertical strip transducer is placed, even at a lower frequency of 30 kHz, a relatively uniform vertical sound pressure distribution can be observed.
