Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of detection technology, and in particular to a method and device for online monitoring of corrosion depth of storage tank bottom plate. Background Technology

[0002] The bottom plate is the weakest point of the storage tank. Impurities such as water in the stored medium easily accumulate at the bottom, making this area most susceptible to corrosion and perforation. Statistical analysis of numerous testing cases has revealed that the edge plates of the bottom plate, due to their connection to the tank wall and relatively complex structure and stress distribution, are more prone to corrosion than the inner bottom plate. Furthermore, because they provide support for the tank wall, corrosion in this area poses a significant safety hazard.

[0003] Opening the tank for inspection requires shutting down production and cleaning, which is time-consuming and expensive. It is usually done periodically, which can lead to over-inspection or untimely inspection. Bottom plate leakage monitoring technology involves installing leak sensors, such as oil-sensing cables, on the foundation side of the tank bottom plate. This can only be installed during tank construction and cannot be used after the tank is put into operation.

[0004] Corrosion depth is an important parameter for monitoring the corrosion of tank bottom plates.

[0022] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the electronic device provided by the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0024] Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart of the online monitoring method for corrosion depth of the tank bottom plate provided by the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes: Step S1: Determine the monitoring point on the bottom plate of the storage tank, determine the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the corrosion depth of the monitoring point, and the distance between the monitoring point and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe.

[0025] The monitoring points are points on the tank bottom plate used for corrosion monitoring. These can be pre-set points, such as points on the bottom plate where corrosion has occurred, identified through prior testing. There can be multiple monitoring points. For each monitoring point, the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the corrosion depth at that point, as well as the distance between the monitoring point and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, are determined. One ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe can be used to monitor the monitoring point. Multiple ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes can be deployed to monitor the corrosion depth at multiple monitoring points.

[0026] Step S2: Periodically acquire the detection curve of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, and acquire the ordinate value of the detection curve when the horizontal axis is the spacing; wherein, the horizontal axis of the detection curve represents the distance between the point in the ultrasonic guided wave transmission path and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, and the ordinate of the detection curve represents the signal amplitude.

[0027] Regularly obtain the detection curves of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe. If the ultrasonic guided wave encounters corrosion points during transmission, an echo will be generated, which can be identified in the detection curve. Echoes caused by weld seams will also be generated during ultrasonic guided wave transmission, but the echo generated at the monitoring point is caused by corrosion of the base plate.

[0028] Figure 2This is a schematic diagram of the detection curve in the online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plates provided by this invention. The horizontal axis of the detection curve represents the distance between a point in the ultrasonic guided wave transmission path and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, and the vertical axis represents the signal amplitude, which can be expressed as a voltage value. In the detection curve, the location where the echo is generated has a significant amplitude, which can be used to determine the echo distance, that is, the distance between the point where the echo is generated and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe.

[0029] The vertical coordinate value of the detection curve is obtained when the horizontal axis is the distance between the point to be monitored and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the point to be monitored, which is also the value of the signal amplitude.

[0030] Step S3: Determine the corrosion depth of the monitoring point based on the spacing, the ordinate value, and the pre-established relationship curve between the spacing, the signal amplitude, and the corrosion depth of the monitoring point.

[0031] A relationship curve can be pre-established between the distance between the point to be monitored and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the point, the signal amplitude on the horizontal axis of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor's detection curve at that distance, and the corrosion depth of the point to be monitored. Then, based on the two elements already determined in the relationship curve, the third element can be determined.

[0032] Since the distance between the point to be monitored and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the point to be monitored is known, and the horizontal axis of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor's detection curve is the vertical axis value at that distance, that is, the value of the signal amplitude has been obtained, the corrosion depth of the point to be monitored can be determined based on the relationship curve of the above three factors.

[0033] The present invention provides an online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plates. This method determines the monitoring point on the tank bottom plate, the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the corrosion depth of the monitoring point, and the distance between the monitoring point and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe. It periodically acquires the detection curve of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe and obtains the ordinate value of the detection curve when the horizontal axis represents the distance. The horizontal axis of the detection curve represents the distance between the point in the ultrasonic guided wave transmission path and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, and the vertical axis represents the signal amplitude. Based on the distance, the ordinate value, and a pre-established relationship curve between the distance, signal amplitude, and corrosion depth of the monitoring point, the corrosion depth of the monitoring point is determined, thus achieving online monitoring of the corrosion depth of the tank bottom plate.

[0034] According to the present invention, an online monitoring method for corrosion depth of a storage tank bottom plate is provided. The method for determining the monitoring point of the storage tank bottom plate includes: acquiring a detection curve using ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes distributed on the outer edge plate of the storage tank bottom plate; determining the echo distance of the echo generated by bottom plate corrosion based on the detection curve; for each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, drawing a circle with the location of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe as the center and the echo distance determined based on the detection curve of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe as the radius; obtaining the intersection point of the circles drawn based on each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe located inside the storage tank, and using the intersection point as the monitoring point.

[0035] When determining the monitoring points on the bottom plate of the storage tank, the monitoring points are determined by the detection curves obtained from multiple distributed ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes.

[0036] Multiple ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes are distributed on the outer edge plate of the tank bottom plate, and the detection curves of each probe are acquired. The echo distance of the echo generated by the bottom plate corrosion in the detection curve of each probe is identified, that is, the distance between the point of bottom plate corrosion and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe. In a single detection curve, there may be multiple echo distances generated by bottom plate corrosion, meaning that multiple corrosion points produce echo signals.

[0037] For each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, a circle is drawn with the probe's location as the center and the echo distance determined based on the probe's detection curve as the radius. If the probe's detection curve identifies n echo distances caused by substrate corrosion, then the circles drawn with the probe's location as the center and the echo distance determined based on the probe's detection curve as the radius are n concentric circles.

[0038] The circle drawn by a single ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe cannot pinpoint the corrosion point. This embodiment uses circles drawn by multiple ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes to locate the corrosion point. The corrosion point is the intersection of the circles drawn by the multiple ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes. Online monitoring of the corrosion point is required. Since the corrosion of the bottom plate is caused by the medium stored in the tank, the corrosion point usually occurs inside the tank. Therefore, the intersection of the circles drawn by each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe located inside the tank is obtained and used as the monitoring point.

[0039] The online monitoring method for corrosion depth of storage tank bottom plates provided by this invention utilizes ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes distributed on the outer edge plate of the storage tank bottom plate to obtain detection curves. Based on the detection curves, the echo distance of the echo generated by bottom plate corrosion is determined. For each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, a circle is drawn with the location of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe as the center and the echo distance determined based on the detection curve of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe as the radius. The intersection point of the circles drawn based on each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe located inside the storage tank is obtained, and the intersection point is used as the monitoring point, thus achieving accurate determination of the monitoring point.

[0040] According to the present invention, a method for online monitoring of corrosion depth of tank bottom plate is provided, wherein determining the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe for monitoring the corrosion depth of the monitoring point includes: obtaining the distance between the monitoring point and each of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes, and determining the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe with the smallest distance value as the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe for monitoring the corrosion depth of the monitoring point.

[0041] The closer the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe is to the point to be monitored, the higher the signal strength and the less interference it receives. Therefore, when determining the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the corrosion depth of the point to be monitored, the distance between the point to be monitored and each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe is obtained, and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe with the smallest distance value is selected as the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the corrosion depth of the point to be monitored.

[0042] The online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plates provided by this invention improves the accuracy of determining the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the corrosion depth of the monitoring point by obtaining the distance between the monitoring point and each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe and determining the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe with the smallest distance value. This improves the accuracy of the online monitoring results of corrosion depth of tank bottom plates.

[0043] According to the present invention, an online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plate is provided, wherein each of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes is pre-embedded in multiple preset positions on the outer edge plate of the tank bottom plate.

[0044] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram showing the arrangement of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe in the online monitoring method for corrosion depth of the tank bottom plate provided by this invention. Figure 3As shown, each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe is pre-embedded in multiple preset positions on the outer edge plate of the tank bottom plate. These preset positions can be defined as each individual outer edge plate or selected key monitoring areas. The ultrasonic guided wave sensor probes are pre-embedded in multiple preset positions on the outer edge plate of the tank bottom plate, with the probes close to the upper surface of the outer edge plate and covered with a waterproof and anti-corrosion coating. The connection ports between the probes and the machine are exposed.

[0045] The online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plate provided by the present invention facilitates the execution of online monitoring by pre-embedding each ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe at multiple preset positions on the outer edge plate of the tank bottom plate.

[0046] According to the present invention, an online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plate is provided, before obtaining the ordinate value when the horizontal axis of the detection curve is the spacing, the method further includes: removing interference signals from the detection curve by noise reduction processing.

[0047] Noise may also be present in the detection signal, affecting subsequent analysis and processing. Therefore, before obtaining the ordinate value where the horizontal axis represents the interval in the detection curve, noise reduction processing is performed to remove interference signals from the detection curve. This noise reduction processing can be performed before or after filtering.

[0048] The online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plates provided by this invention further improves the accuracy of online monitoring of corrosion depth of tank bottom plates by removing interference signals through noise reduction processing of the detection curve.

[0049] According to the present invention, an online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plate is provided, the method further includes: pre-determining the relationship curve between the spacing, the signal amplitude and the corrosion depth of the monitoring point through experiments.

[0050] Multiple sets of values ​​for the distance between the monitoring point and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the monitoring point, the signal amplitude at that distance on the horizontal axis of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor's detection curve, and the corrosion depth of the monitoring point can be established in advance through experiments. These multiple sets of values ​​for the three parameters are then fitted to obtain the relationship curve between the distance between the monitoring point and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe, the signal amplitude, and the corrosion depth of the monitoring point. Based on this relationship curve, an expression for the relationship curve can be determined, and the value of the third element can be determined based on two known elements.

[0051] Among them, when establishing multiple sets of values ​​for the distance between the point to be monitored and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe used to monitor the point to be monitored, the signal amplitude when the horizontal axis of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor detection curve is the distance, and the corrosion depth of the point to be monitored through experiments, these multiple sets of values ​​can be obtained based on the detection curve of the ultrasonic guided wave sensor probe.

[0052] The online monitoring method for corrosion depth of tank bottom plates provided by this invention lays the foundation for determining corrosion depth by pre-determining the relationship curve between spacing, signal amplitude and corrosion depth of the monitoring point through experiments.

The analyzing module 30 is used to: determine the corrosion depth of the monitoring point based on the distance, the ordinate value, and a pre-established relationship curve between the distance, the signal amplitude, and the corrosion depth of the monitoring point.
