Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of non-contact corrugated pipe modal characteristic test, in particular to a non-contact corrugated pipe modal characteristic test device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Small-diameter corrugated pipes, as a typical periodic thin-walled flexible structure, are widely used in aviation, aerospace, and instrument and metering systems. The modal characteristics of the small-diameter corrugated pipes are directly related to the structural stability and fatigue life during service. However, due to the extremely thin wall thickness and complex geometry of the small-diameter corrugated pipes, the traditional modal test method has obvious deficiencies in application. The additional mass and stiffness of the exciter and the contact sensor can significantly change the structural dynamics characteristics. It is difficult and cumbersome to install the contact sensor on some small-diameter corrugated pipes, and in extreme cases, it is even impossible to arrange the contact sensor. Although the non-contact laser vibration meter can avoid the mass addition effect, the equipment cost is high, and the installation and preparation process of the test is also very complex. Therefore, a corrugated pipe modal test method based on the principle of acoustic vibration reciprocity is proposed, and its applicability and engineering value are systematically evaluated.

[0003] The existing test method cannot accurately obtain the modal characteristics of the small-diameter corrugated pipe, therefore, in view of the deficiencies in the prior art, it is very necessary to provide a non-contact small-diameter corrugated pipe modal characteristic test device to solve the deficiencies in the prior art.

[0004] At present, the modal test of the corrugated pipe is mostly carried out using the contact sensor, without considering the influence of the additional mass and stiffness of the contact sensor on the modal characteristics of the corrugated pipe, and in some cases with small wave distance and straight edge, the contact sensor cannot be arranged.

[0005] The corrugated pipe structure has high symmetry. Even if the contact sensor can be effectively arranged by the traditional force hammer-contact sensor system, the contact sensor cannot capture the double root modal parameters of the corrugated pipe, because the additional mass of the contact sensor also changes the symmetry of the structure, and further destroys the double root modal parameters of the symmetrical structure, especially in the measurement of the double root modal parameters of the small-diameter corrugated pipe.

[0006] The existing test method cannot accurately obtain the double root modal parameters of the small-diameter corrugated pipe, and cannot avoid the cumbersome installation and preparation process of the contact sensor.

[0007] Therefore, in view of the deficiencies in the prior art, it is very necessary to provide a non-contact small-diameter corrugated pipe modal characteristic test device to solve the deficiencies in the prior art. SUMMARY

[0008] The present application aims to avoid the shortcomings of the prior art and provides a non-contact small-diameter corrugated pipe modal characteristic test device, which tests the small-diameter corrugated pipe through hammer excitation, measures the response data of the sound pressure sensor in the wedge-shaped sound absorbing box, and can accurately obtain the modal characteristic parameters of the small-diameter corrugated pipe to be tested after calculation, can avoid the influence of the additional mass and stiffness of the exciter and the contact sensor on the measurement accuracy, has higher test accuracy, and compared with the laser vibration tester which is also non-contact, not only reduces the cost, but also the installation and preparation process of the test is very efficient.
