TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of digital twinning, in particular to a graphite heat exchanger corrosion rate prediction system and method based on digital twinning. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of process industries such as chemical industry, petrochemical industry, metallurgy, etc. towards large-scale, continuous, and high-parameter direction, heat exchange equipment, as the core device of energy transfer and medium temperature control in the production system, its running stability and service life are directly related to the efficiency, safety and economic benefits of the whole process. Graphite heat exchanger, with its excellent resistance to strong acid and strong base corrosion, good thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion coefficient, has shown irreplaceable advantages in handling high-corrosion working conditions such as chlorine-containing medium and concentrated acid, and has become a key core equipment in such industrial fields. Typical applications include chemical pickling, chlor-alkali production and wastewater deep treatment, etc. However, although graphite material has strong chemical stability, the dynamic changes of medium characteristics such as pH value fluctuation and chloride ion concentration change, working condition parameters such as medium temperature rise, flow rate anomaly and system pressure fluctuation, and material intrinsic state such as porosity increase and compressive strength decay with time will form a synergistic effect, continuously causing or accelerating corrosion behavior. Therefore, to realize real-time and accurate prediction of graphite heat exchanger corrosion rate and dynamic risk control has become one of the core needs to ensure the safe and stable operation of process industrial systems.
[0003] At present, the technical system for graphite heat exchanger corrosion monitoring and rate prediction is still dominated by traditional schemes, and the overall development is in the stage of offline detection combined with experience estimation. In the monitoring link, the existing technology relies on manual regular inspection and offline non-destructive testing after shutdown, such as ultrasonic testing and penetration testing. Although single type sensors such as only monitoring medium pH value or temperature are deployed in some scenarios, the data acquisition frequency is low, the monitoring dimension is limited, and it is difficult to capture the corrosion dynamic evolution process under the coupling action of multiple factors in real time. In the prediction link, the traditional method is mostly based on a single influencing factor to establish a linear empirical formula, such as only through medium pH value or temperature, or relying on historical failure data of the same type of equipment for analogy and inference, lacking systematic integration and deep coupling analysis of multi-source data such as medium corrosion, working condition erosion and material resistance, and unable to fully reflect the corrosion mechanism of the interaction of medium, working condition and material under complex working conditions. At the same time, although digital twinning technology has been gradually applied in the condition monitoring of high-end equipment such as aerospace and high-end machine tools, in the industrial equipment of graphite heat exchanger with specific material and complex corrosion environment, a complete technical chain of real-time acquisition of multi-source data, accurate prediction of coupled model, visualization of digital twinning and intelligentization of maintenance decision has not yet been formed, and the operation and maintenance personnel are still difficult to master the internal corrosion state of the equipment through intuitive digital carrier, and the maintenance decision lacks dynamic and accurate data support.
[0004] The prior art faces many outstanding problems in practical application, which seriously restricts the effectiveness of graphite heat exchanger corrosion control. First, the timeliness and continuity of monitoring are insufficient. Traditional offline detection needs to be implemented during shutdown, which not only interferes with the normal production rhythm, but also cannot cover the sudden corrosion risk in the shutdown gap, such as rapid pitting corrosion caused by sudden change of medium composition, which easily falls into the passive situation of no abnormality during detection and sudden failure during operation. Second, the prediction accuracy and reliability are low. Single factor model or fixed empirical formula cannot consider the synergistic effect of multi-dimensional parameters such as medium, working condition and material, especially in complex scenarios such as sudden increase of chloride ion concentration and abnormal increase of flow rate, the prediction result deviates significantly from the actual corrosion rate, which is difficult to support effective risk warning. Third, the visualization and decision support capability is weak. There is a lack of intuitive display means based on digital twinning, and the operation and maintenance personnel cannot quickly locate the high corrosion risk area of key parts such as tube sheet and heat exchange tube. Maintenance decisions are mostly based on manual experience, which is prone to problems such as excessive maintenance, such as replacing parts that have not reached the corrosion threshold, thereby increasing costs, or insufficient maintenance, such as delaying the repair of high-risk components, thereby leaving safety hazards. Fourth, the model adaptability and long-term effectiveness are poor. Existing prediction models mostly use fixed parameters, which cannot real-time correct weight factors and calculation parameters according to the dynamic changes of material performance during equipment aging process, such as the increase of porosity with service life and the attenuation of compressive strength. The prediction accuracy continues to decline after long-term operation, which is difficult to meet the corrosion dynamic management needs of graphite heat exchanger throughout its life cycle.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a graphite heat exchanger corrosion rate prediction system and method based on digital twinning to solve the above problems. SUMMARY

[0019] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the method steps of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] This invention provides, for example Figure 1 The digital twin-based graphite heat exchanger corrosion rate prediction system shown includes: The multi-source corrosion data acquisition module collects medium characteristics, operating parameters and body status data of the graphite heat exchanger by deploying multiple sensors on the graphite heat exchanger body and upstream and downstream process pipelines, as well as by non-destructive testing during the maintenance period, and forms a multi-source corrosion dataset of the graphite heat exchanger. Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the multi-source corrosion dataset of the graphite heat exchanger includes media characteristic data, operating condition data, and body state data; the media characteristic data includes the media pH value C. PH The chloride ion concentration C; the operating data includes medium temperature T, medium flow rate V, and system pressure P; the bulk condition data includes graphite material porosity P. r σ, compressive strength of graphite materials c .
[0022] It is important to know that the pH value C PHThe corrosion-resistant online PH sensor is deployed for collection at the medium inlet and outlet pipe sections of the graphite heat exchanger body, the key points inside the heat exchange chamber, such as the connection between the tube sheet and the heat exchange tube, and the medium conveying sections of the upstream and downstream process pipelines, such as the feed pipe and the reflux pipe. The selected sensor needs to adapt to the corrosion, temperature and pressure conditions of the system medium. For example, a glass electrode type PH sensor with a polytetrafluoroethylene shell is selected. The sensor probe directly contacts the medium, collects PH value data in real time, and sends them to the data acquisition and twin construction module through wired or wireless transmission. The collection frequency is set to 1 time / minute to capture the dynamic changes of the medium PH value. The sensor needs to be calibrated on site once a month using a standard PH buffer solution to adjust the zero point and slope, ensuring that the measurement error is controlled within ±0.05 PH units; The chloride ion concentration C is collected by deploying an online chloride ion concentration sensor at the tube side and shell side medium outlet pipelines of the graphite heat exchanger body, and the medium sampling sections of the upstream and downstream process pipelines. The sensor type is selected to match the ion-selective electrode sensor with the characteristics of the medium, and a temperature compensation module is equipped to offset the influence of medium temperature changes on the measurement results. When installing the sensor, the probe needs to be completely immersed in the medium and away from the bubble generation area. Real-time chloride ion concentration data are collected and transmitted to the data acquisition and twin construction module. The collection frequency is 1 time / 5 minutes. A standard chloride ion solution with known concentration is used to calibrate the sensor every quarter to ensure that the measurement accuracy meets the requirement of ±1 mg / L. At the same time, the probe surface is regularly cleaned of dirt and deposits to avoid affecting the ion response speed. The medium temperature T is collected by deploying a platinum resistance temperature sensor or a thermocouple temperature sensor at the outer wall of the heat exchange tube in the middle of the tube side inlet and outlet and shell side inlet and outlet pipelines of the graphite heat exchanger body, and the straight pipe section before the valve after the pump of the upstream and downstream process pipelines. The sensor needs to be packaged with a corrosion-resistant metal protective sleeve. When installing, the sleeve is inserted into the medium flow channel with an insertion depth not less than 1 / 3 of the pipe diameter to ensure full contact with the medium. Real-time temperature data are collected and transmitted to the data acquisition and twin construction module. The collection frequency is 1 time / 30 seconds to track temperature fluctuations in real time. Before installation, the sensor needs to be temperature calibrated through constant temperature oil bath or dry furnace in the-20℃~200℃ interval. The calibration status is reviewed once every half year during operation to ensure that the measurement error does not exceed ±0.5℃; The medium flow rate V is collected by deploying an electromagnetic flowmeter or an ultrasonic flowmeter on the straight pipe section of the upstream and downstream process pipelines of the inlet and outlet pipes of the tube side and shell side of the graphite heat exchanger body. The flowmeter type is determined according to the corrosivity and viscosity of the medium and the pipe diameter. When the electromagnetic flowmeter is installed, the full pipe flow of the pipeline needs to be ensured, the sensor electrode axis is perpendicular to the direction of the medium flow and is located at the center axis of the pipeline. The ultrasonic flowmeter is installed in an external clamping mode to avoid damaging the integrity of the pipeline. The probes are installed on the horizontal diameter of the outer wall of the pipeline on both sides to ensure that the ultrasonic signal can effectively penetrate the pipe wall and propagate in the medium. The flow rate data is collected in real time and transmitted to the data acquisition and twin construction module. The collection frequency is 1 time / 1 minute. The flowmeter is calibrated every quarter using a standard flow device to ensure that the flow rate measurement error is controlled within ±1%. The system pressure P is collected by deploying a pressure sensor on the pressure key points such as the inlet of the pump outlet valve and the outlet of the storage tank of the upstream and downstream process pipelines of the pressure interface of the tube side and shell side of the graphite heat exchanger body. The sensor type is selected as a piezoelectric or strain gauge pressure sensor. The range needs to cover 1.2~1.5 times the normal working pressure of the system and has the functions of resisting medium corrosion and temperature compensation. The sensor is installed at the pressure interface through threaded or flanged connection to ensure good sealing and no leakage. The pressure data is collected in real time and transmitted to the data acquisition and twin construction module. The collection frequency is 1 time / 1 minute. Before installation, the 0 point and full-scale calibration need to be performed through a standard pressure source. The zero drift is checked once a month during operation to ensure that the pressure measurement error is not more than ±0.2% FS. The porosity P of the graphite material r During the maintenance shutdown of the graphite heat exchanger, the porosity P of the graphite material is collected by using non-destructive testing methods combined with sampling detection. Specifically, for the key structural parts such as the tube plate shell of the heat exchange tube of the body, the ultrasonic detection method is preferred. A 2.5MHz~5MHz straight probe is used to apply coupling agent on the surface of the graphite to avoid corrosion of the graphite. The ultrasonic wave is emitted and the internal reflected signal is received. According to the change of ultrasonic propagation speed and reflected amplitude, combined with the pre-established porosity-ultrasonic velocity calibration curve, the measured porosity P is calculated. r ; The compressive strength σ of the graphite material c According to the national standard GB / T 13465.2-2014, a universal material testing machine is used to perform compression test on a sample processed into a standard size such as 20mm×20mm×20mm. The testing machine applies pressure at a constant loading rate of 1.5mm / min until the sample is destroyed. The maximum pressure value is recorded and the strength is calculated. The final result is the average value of at least five valid samples.
[0023] The corrosion influence coefficient analysis module is configured to analyze the graphite heat exchanger multi-source corrosion dataset to obtain a medium corrosivity coefficient, a working condition corrosivity coefficient and a material resistance coefficient, and input the medium corrosivity coefficient, the working condition corrosivity coefficient and the material resistance coefficient into the graphite corrosion coupling prediction model to output a comprehensive corrosion index. Further, in the above technical solution, the medium corrosivity coefficient specifically comprises: , wherein C PH is a pH value of the medium, C is a chloride ion concentration, θ PH is a pH corrosion critical threshold, γ is a chloride ion concentration saturation constant, k PH is a pH sensitivity coefficient, α and β are weight factors and satisfy α+β=1, and e is a natural constant.
[0024] It should be noted that the pH corrosion critical threshold θ PH refers to a critical point at which the pH value of the medium significantly changes the corrosion behavior of the graphite material, and the value thereof is determined according to the corrosion resistance characteristics of the graphite material and long-term operation experience data, is usually obtained through laboratory accelerated corrosion test and regression analysis of historical corrosion data on site, and is used to distinguish the pH interval of high corrosion risk and low corrosion risk in the medium corrosivity coefficient calculation, when the pH value of the medium approaches or exceeds the threshold, the corrosivity coefficient will change significantly, thereby more accurately reflecting the actual corrosion trend. The chloride ion concentration saturation constant γ is used to represent the saturation effect of the chloride ion concentration on the corrosion, and the value thereof is determined through corrosion kinetics experiment and fitting analysis, reflecting the phenomenon that the corrosion rate gradually tends to be flat under high chloride ion concentration. The introduction of the constant makes the medium corrosivity coefficient not increase infinitely when the chloride ion concentration is high, which is more consistent with the nonlinear relationship between the corrosion rate and the ion concentration in actual engineering, and improves the prediction accuracy of the model under high concentration working conditions. The pH sensitivity coefficient k PH is used to quantify the sensitivity of the influence of the pH value of the medium deviating from the critical threshold on the corrosivity coefficient, and the value thereof is obtained through corrosion test data fitting and parameter optimization, which controls the slope of the change of the corrosivity coefficient with the change of the pH value. A larger k PH value indicates that a slight deviation of the pH from the threshold will cause a significant change in the corrosivity coefficient, and is suitable for high corrosion risk medium sensitive to pH change, thereby enhancing the response ability and prediction accuracy of the model to working condition fluctuations. The values of the weight factors a and b are determined according to the dominant contribution of hydrogen ions and chloride ions to the corrosion of the graphite material in the medium, and are comprehensively determined by coupling historical corrosion data, laboratory simulation test results and expert experience; specifically, a represents the weight of pH value on the corrosivity of the medium, b represents the weight of chloride ion concentration on the corrosivity of the medium, both of which satisfy the constraint condition a + b = 1, in actual application, if the corrosivity of the medium is mainly driven by acidic or alkaline conditions, such as strong acid or strong alkali working conditions, a > b is set, for example, a = 0.7, b = 0.3; if the corrosivity of the medium is mainly caused by pitting or stress corrosion caused by chloride ions, such as seawater or high-chlorine environment, b > a is set, for example, a = 0.3, b = 0.7; for mixed type corrosion medium with equivalent influence of both, balanced weight is adopted, such as a = 0.5, b = 0.5, the final value needs to be determined through repeated iteration and verification of measured data and model prediction results of corrosion rate to ensure the prediction accuracy and adaptability of the model under different working conditions.
[0025] Further, in the above technical solution, the working condition corrosivity coefficient is specifically: , Wherein, T is the medium temperature, T0 is the reference base value of the medium temperature, V is the medium flow rate, V0 is the reference base value of the medium flow rate, P is the system pressure, P0 is the reference base value of the system pressure, and η is the sensitivity adjustment index.
[0026] It should be noted that the reference base value T0 of the medium temperature is set as the rated temperature value under the design working condition of the equipment, which is determined according to the design temperature marked in the technical specification book of the graphite heat exchanger, and at the same time, the stability range of the physical property parameters of the medium at this temperature is referred to, for example, for a hydrochloric acid cooling system, T0 can be set as the operating temperature 80℃ required by the process, which needs to be lower than the critical point of thermal deformation of graphite material and have a safety margin to ensure the stability of the model calculation base when the temperature fluctuates; The reference base value V0 of the medium flow rate is the middle value of the economic flow rate in the process design, which is determined comprehensively based on fluid mechanics calculation and anti-erosion corrosion experience value, specifically, V0 is usually set as the critical flow rate of the medium in the heat exchange pipe to generate laminar flow to transition flow state, such as 0.8~1.2m / s range, which needs to be calibrated in combination with the pipe diameter, medium viscosity and graphite anti-erosion strength characteristics to avoid the synergistic effect of mechanical erosion and corrosion caused by too high flow rate; The reference base value P0 of the system pressure directly adopts the design pressure value marked on the equipment nameplate, which is derived from the maximum allowable working pressure in the strength calculation book, and when setting, 90% of the take-off pressure of the safety valve is considered as the upper threshold, for example, for PN16 pressure grade system, P0 is set as 1.6MPa, this base value can effectively distinguish the influence boundary of normal operating pressure and abnormal overpressure working condition on the corrosion behavior; The sensitivity adjustment index η is set according to the medium corrosion characteristics and system operation experience, which is used to quantify the joint influence strength of temperature, flow rate and pressure on the corrosion coefficient of the working condition. The value is obtained by regression analysis of corrosion dynamics experiment and historical operation data. Specifically, the corrosion behavior under different working condition combinations is simulated in the laboratory environment, the deviation between the actual corrosion rate and the theoretical value is measured, and the correlation between the fluctuation data of temperature, flow rate and pressure in the field operation record and the corresponding corrosion phenomenon is fitted to obtain the optimal solution range of η, which is usually 1.5~3.0. For example, for strong corrosive medium such as concentrated sulfuric acid system, η is set to a higher value of 2.5 to enhance the response ability of the model to small working condition fluctuations; for weak corrosive medium such as pure water system, it is set to a lower value of 1.8 to suppress noise interference and avoid false alarms caused by excessive sensitivity of the model.
[0027] Further, in the above technical solution, the material resistance coefficient is specifically: , Where P r is the measured graphite porosity, P r0 is the standard porosity of the new material, σ c is the measured compressive strength of graphite, σ c0 is the standard compressive strength of the new material, and λ is the amplification coefficient of porosity influence.
[0028] It should be noted that the standard porosity P r0 of the new material directly uses the measured porosity value marked in the manufacturer's quality certificate as the initial reference value for system calculation, which is a constant constant and does not change with the running state of the equipment; The standard compressive strength σ c0 of the new material is strictly set according to the measured compressive strength value specified in the manufacturer's material quality certificate. The value is measured by the compression test method specified in the national standard GB / T 13465.2-2014, using a universal material testing machine to load the standard sample of 20mm×20mm×20mm at a constant rate of 1.5mm / min to failure, and the σ c0 value is measured and marked in the factory inspection report; The setting of the amplification coefficient λ of the porosity influence is determined according to the regression analysis results of the laboratory accelerated corrosion test and the historical data, which is used to quantify the amplification degree of the non-linear acceleration effect of the increase of graphite material porosity on the corrosion rate. Specifically, the following technical solutions are realized: first, prepare a gradient porosity in the laboratory environment, such as The graphite sample with a ratio coverage in the interval of 0.8 to 1.5 is measured for a corrosion rate in a typical medium, such as 10% hydrochloric acid with a concentration of 10% and a temperature of 80°C, by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and weight loss method; meanwhile, the porosity growth data and the corresponding corrosion rate detection values of the heat exchanger of the same material in the same medium under different service years (1-10 years) are extracted; finally, the mapping relationship curve of the relative ratio of porosity and the corrosion rate increase is fitted by using a nonlinear least squares method, and the curve curvature characteristic parameter is extracted and converted into an optimized solution of lambda.
[0029] Further, in the technical scheme, the graphite corrosion coupling prediction model specifically comprises: , wherein Q is a comprehensive corrosion index, F is a medium corrosivity coefficient, E is a working condition aggressivity coefficient, M is a material resistance coefficient, and ω1, ω2 and ω3 are dynamic weight factors and satisfy ω1+ω2+ω3=1.
[0030] The corrosion rate prediction module is configured to perform linear mapping according to the comprehensive corrosion index in combination with a preset reference corrosion rate, calculate and output a real-time predicted corrosion rate of the graphite heat exchanger; The digital twin visualization module is configured to receive the real-time predicted corrosion rate, the comprehensive corrosion index and a multi-source corrosion data set of the graphite heat exchanger, drive a three-dimensional digital twin of the graphite heat exchanger to perform visual display, and mark a corrosion risk level. Further, in the technical scheme, the calculation formula of the real-time predicted corrosion rate is: , wherein V predicted is the real-time predicted corrosion rate, V base is the reference corrosion rate, Q is the comprehensive corrosion index, and Q base is a reference comprehensive corrosion index.
[0031] It should be noted that the setting of the reference corrosion rate V base value needs to be based on the graphite material used in the graphite heat exchanger in a new material state that meets the standard porosity P r0 and the standard compressive strength σ c0 of the new material marked in the manufacturer's quality certificate, and is determined under a reference working condition specified by the equipment design, which includes a reference reference value T0 of the medium temperature, a reference reference value V0 of the medium flow rate, a reference reference value P0 of the system pressure, and needs to match the reference medium characteristics, which are the corresponding pH corrosion critical threshold θ PHlow corrosion risk pH value and chloride ion concentration close to the low chloride benchmark value of the process design; in the determination process, the laboratory accelerated corrosion test, the measured data of the corrosion performance of the heat exchanger of the model provided by the manufacturer under the benchmark working condition, and the statistical average corrosion rate of the non-destructive testing of the long-term operation of the same type of graphite heat exchanger in the same industry under the same benchmark working condition are combined, wherein the laboratory accelerated corrosion test refers to the national standard GB / T 13465.2-2014, the standard graphite sample of the same material and the same specification as the heat exchanger is used to monitor the average corrosion rate in the preset period in the simulated corrosion environment of the benchmark working condition by the weight loss method or the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy method, and the non-destructive testing includes ultrasonic testing and penetration testing; subsequently, the above three types of data need to be subjected to data effectiveness screening and weighted average processing, the abnormal fluctuation value needs to be excluded in the data effectiveness screening, the weight of the laboratory test data is 0.4, the weight of the measured data of the manufacturer is 0.3, and the weight of the industry statistical data is 0.3, and the value of V base is obtained after processing.
