[0002] In many industrial fields, such as aerospace, energy and power, metallurgy and chemical industry, it is crucial to monitor the displacement, vibration, temperature and other parameters of equipment components in ultra-high-temperature environments in real time and accurately. Accurate acquisition of these parameters is not only related to the stable operation of the equipment, but also directly affects production safety and efficiency. As a non-contact measurement sensor, the eddy current sensor has been widely used in industrial monitoring due to its high sensitivity, fast response and strong anti-interference ability.
[0003] The existing eddy current sensor only uses a single alternating magnetic field, and the detection range is limited. The magnetic field distribution generated by the single alternating magnetic field is relatively fixed, and the effective detection area is relatively narrow. In an ultra-high-temperature environment, the thermal expansion and thermal deformation of the measured object are complex, which may cause the distance between the measured object and the sensor to exceed the effective detection range of the single alternating magnetic field, so that the sensor cannot accurately measure the related parameters.
