Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of hydroelectric power generation, and in particular to a method and device for evaluating the bonding force of a water turbine blade coating. BACKGROUND
[0002] A water turbine is the core energy conversion equipment of a hydropower station. Its blades are long-term operated in high-speed, sand-containing water flow, and the working conditions are harsh, which are prone to cavitation, abrasion and fatigue damage. In order to protect the blades and improve their efficiency, an anti-abrasion and anti-cavitation protective coating is usually coated on the surface of the blades. The performance of the coating, especially the bonding force between the coating and the blade substrate, directly determines the protection effect and the safe operation life of the blades. Once the coating peels off, not only will the substrate be exposed to the harsh environment to accelerate damage, but also the peeled fragments may cause secondary damage to other flow parts of the water turbine, leading to serious accidents.
[0003] Therefore, it is of great importance to accurately and efficiently evaluate the bonding force of the water turbine blade coating and develop a scientific maintenance strategy on this basis to ensure the safe, stable and economic operation of the hydropower station.
[0004] The existing coating bonding force evaluation methods mainly have the following shortcomings:
[0005] 1) Low evaluation accuracy: such as grid method, tensile method, etc., which need to sample or conduct destructive tests on the blades, and cannot comprehensively evaluate the in-service blades, and the representative of the sampling results is limited.
[0006] 2) Low evaluation accuracy: such as ultrasonic wave, eddy current, etc., which can usually only detect macroscopic defects such as interface debonding, and are not sensitive to early microscopic characterization of bonding force degradation (such as micro-crack initiation and interface performance degradation), and it is difficult to quantitatively evaluate the bonding force grade.
[0007] 3) Evaluation and decision-making are disconnected: the traditional evaluation results are mostly qualitative or discrete data points, which are difficult to intuitively reflect the spatial distribution state of the bonding force on the entire blade surface. At the same time, there is a lack of effective data-driven model connection between the evaluation results and the life prediction and maintenance decision-making, resulting in that the development of maintenance plan mainly depends on the experience of experts, which has subjectivity and lag, and cannot realize intelligent and refined management in the whole life cycle.
[0008] In summary, it is urgent to develop a comprehensive technical solution which can accurately, comprehensively and quantitatively evaluate the bonding force of the water turbine blade coating, intelligently predict the remaining life, and automatically generate the optimal maintenance decision.
