Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fiber manufacturing process control, in particular to a continuous carbon fiber aspect ratio online regulation system based on tension and temperature feedback. BACKGROUND

[0002] Carbon fibers are widely used in aerospace, rail transportation, new energy vehicles and high-end sports equipment due to their high specific strength, high specific modulus, corrosion resistance and excellent thermal stability. In the preparation process of continuous carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite (CFRTP), the aspect ratio of the fiber (i.e. the ratio of the fiber length to its diameter) is one of the key parameters affecting the mechanical properties of the final product. Higher aspect ratio helps to improve the tensile strength, impact toughness and fatigue life of the composite, while fiber breakage or excessive shear will significantly reduce its reinforcing effect.

[0003] Currently, continuous carbon fibers are usually compounded with thermoplastic resins through melt impregnation, solution impregnation or powder blending, etc. In this process, the fiber needs to go through multiple processes such as traction, heating, cooling and winding. However, in high-speed continuous production, the fiber bundle is easily affected by uneven tension, local overheating or uneven cooling, etc., leading to micro-fracture, hairiness or even breakage of the fiber, thus causing the actual aspect ratio to deviate from the design value, seriously affecting the product quality consistency.

[0004] Chinese patent application with publication number CN120353121A discloses a cross-linked cable production control method based on an improved PID control algorithm, which includes establishing a coordinated control architecture of temperature, pressure and traction speed, taking the vulcanization pipe temperature as the main control variable, the extruder pressure and the traction speed as the slave control variables, and constructing an optimal reference model. The main controller tracks the temperature set value in real time, dynamically adjusts the PID parameters according to the insulation layer thickness deviation and material cross-linking degree, etc. process parameters, and realizes precise control through the improved PID controller of three-ring coordinated coupling: the temperature control loop makes the steady-state error of the actual temperature and the set value converge to zero; the pressure and speed control loop makes the fluctuation amplitude converge to the process allowable range. The invention can improve the temperature stability, pressure uniformity and traction synchronicity of cross-linked cable production, reduce process fluctuations and defect rates, and improve product quality and production efficiency.

[0005] However, the above and similar technical solutions still have the following shortcomings: in the running process of the continuous carbon fiber production line, in order to improve the orientation degree and strength of the carbon fiber, the speed of the drafting roller is usually increased to increase the fiber tension. However, due to the coupling relationship between fiber tension and heat treatment temperature, the heat treatment temperature will be out of adjustment during the adjustment of fiber tension, which will cause the system to be unstable.

[0049] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 The present embodiment provides a continuous carbon fiber aspect ratio online regulation system based on tension and temperature feedback, which comprises a sensing and detecting module, a decision decoupling module and a monitoring and protection module. The sensing and detecting module is used to set corresponding fiber tension detection units and heat treatment temperature detection units through a non-contact laser diffraction tension meter and a multi-point anti-coking thermocouple array embedded in the furnace interior, so as to collect and acquire corresponding fiber tension and heat treatment temperature. The decision decoupling module is used to process the fiber tension and heat treatment temperature collected and acquired by the sensing and detecting module through a set tension-temperature-microstructure correlation model, and generate corresponding temperature pre-compensation instructions. Meanwhile, the fiber tension and heat treatment temperature collected and acquired by the sensing and detecting module are compared with corresponding preset tension target values and preset temperature target values respectively, to generate corresponding PID feedback control instructions. The generated temperature pre-compensation instructions and PID feedback control instructions are superimposed to determine a final composite control instruction. The monitoring and protection module is used to drive corresponding physical devices according to the composite control instruction determined by the decision decoupling module, and at the same time, monitor the real-time data flow of the fiber tension and heat treatment temperature in the driving process, and quantify the corresponding comprehensive stability coefficient, and at the same time, according to the comparison between the comprehensive stability coefficient and the preset stability threshold, adjust the executed composite control instruction in real time.

[0051] In the present embodiment, the sensing and detecting module collects and acquires corresponding fiber tension and heat treatment temperature through the set fiber tension detection units and heat treatment temperature detection units. Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The present embodiment provides a sensing and detecting method for collecting and acquiring fiber tension and heat treatment temperature, which is specifically as follows:

[0052] Step SA1: tension detection setting. That is, a non-contact laser diffraction tension meter is installed at the free section of the fiber between the two drafting rollers. Notably, during installation, the position with minimal vibration and relatively stable fiber shaking, far away from the driving roller and the deflection roller, is selected for installation. Specifically, when installing the non-contact laser diffraction tension meter, it is rigidly connected to the production line foundation through the installed mounting base, such as a steel platform, to isolate external vibration interference on the non-contact laser diffraction tension meter measurement.

[0053] Step SA2: temperature detection setting. That is, according to the maximum temperature of the furnace, a corresponding suitable thermocouple type is selected, such as S-type thermocouple, R-type thermocouple and B-type thermocouple. Specifically, during installation of the thermocouple, according to the length direction of the furnace, corresponding installation measuring points are arranged at different process sections such as the preheating zone, reaction zone and heat preservation zone in the furnace. At the cross section of each process section, the furnace top, bottom and side wall are installed to measure and obtain the temperature gradient at each process section. At the same time, according to the installation measuring points arranged on the furnace, corresponding installation holes are opened at each installation measuring point to fix and install the thermocouple with the furnace through the connection between the flange or thread and the installation hole, and the measurement end of the thermocouple is arranged inside the furnace to enable it to sense and obtain the temperature of the fiber area.

[0054] Further, the measurement end of the thermocouple and the outer surface of the protective sleeve in the embodiment are provided with a high-temperature oxidation-resistant and carbonization-resistant coating, such as an alumina, boron nitride or other ceramic coating, to ensure the accuracy of long-term measurement. At the same time, the compensation lead of the thermocouple is arranged as a high-temperature resistant shield cable and is arranged in a metal hose or wire slot to extend from the furnace body to the control cabinet, so as to protect the compensation lead from physical damage and high-temperature radiation during use.

[0055] Step SA3: real-time monitoring. That is, the non-contact laser diffraction tension meter arranged in step SA1 is calibrated offline when the production line is stopped. Specifically, according to the position of the measuring point arranged at the free section of the fiber, a standard weight of known weight is hung by a pulley to obtain the signal value size collected by the PLC controller through the non-contact laser diffraction tension meter. That is, according to the weight of the standard weight and the corresponding collected signal value size, the corresponding relationship between the signal value and the weight of the standard weight (i.e. the fiber tension value, it is worth noting that the 50N weight in the embodiment corresponds to the fiber tension of 50N) is determined.

[0056] Further, according to the corresponding relationship between the signal value and the fiber tension value, the non-contact laser diffraction tension meter emits a laser beam to the running fiber, so as to determine the corresponding fiber tension value, that is, to detect and obtain the vibration frequency and morphological change of the fiber.

[0057] Meanwhile, in the present embodiment, according to the plurality of thermocouples arranged in step SA2, a multi-point anti-coking thermocouple array embedded inside the hearth can be constructed. That is, the longitudinal and transverse temperature distribution of the thermal field in the furnace can be measured by the multi-point anti-coking thermocouple array constructed, and the corresponding working temperature value can be obtained.

[0058] In the present embodiment, the decision decoupling module generates the final composite control instruction by superimposing the temperature pre-compensation instruction and the PID feedback control instruction. Referring to Figure 4 The present embodiment provides a decision decoupling method for obtaining a composite control instruction, which is specifically as follows:

[0059] Step SB1: Construct an internal model. That is, the fiber tension and heat treatment temperature collected by the perception detection module are used to construct a tension-temperature-microstructure correlation model, that is, a tension-temperature coupling model. Specifically, the tension-temperature coupling model in the present embodiment includes a physically simplified digital twin model or a data machine learning model. That is, the corresponding tension-temperature coupling model can be constructed by the physically simplified digital twin model. The corresponding tension-temperature coupling model can also be constructed according to the data machine learning model.

[0060] In the present embodiment, the corresponding tension-temperature coupling model is constructed by the physically simplified digital twin model, referring to Figure 5 The present embodiment provides a method for constructing a tension-temperature coupling model according to a physically simplified digital twin model, which is specifically as follows:

[0061] Step WA1: Decomposition definition. That is, according to the design drawings of the heat treatment furnace, the heat treatment furnace is divided into a plurality of continuous temperature zones, including but not limited to a preheating zone, a reaction zone and a holding zone. At the same time, according to the divided temperature zones, the corresponding input data and output data in each temperature zone are collected during the operation of the production line. Specifically, the input data corresponding to each temperature zone includes the temperature value, tension value and linear speed (i.e. mass flow) of the fiber entering the temperature zone and the heater power corresponding to the temperature zone. The output data corresponding to each temperature zone includes the temperature value and tension value of the fiber leaving the temperature zone.

[0062] Step WA2: Unit processing. That is, according to each temperature zone arranged in step WA1, each reaction unit is arranged. That is, each temperature zone is arranged as a corresponding reaction unit. At the same time, according to the input data and output data of each temperature zone, that is, the input data and output data of the reaction unit, the corresponding thermodynamic equation and mechanical equation of each reaction unit are determined, which are specifically as follows:

[0063]

[0064] wherein: is the mass flow rate of the fiber, is the specific heat capacity of the fiber at constant pressure, is the temperature of the fiber as it exits the temperature zone, is the temperature of the fiber as it enters the temperature zone, is the net heat transferred to the fiber by the heater, is the heat lost by the system to the ambient environment, is the tension experienced by the fiber, is the modulus of elasticity of the fiber, is the strain of the fiber, is the coefficient of viscosity of the fiber, is the strain rate of the fiber.

[0065] Further, in the embodiment, the strain of the fiber is determined according to the relative elongation of the fiber, specifically:

[0066]

[0067] wherein: is the strain of the fiber, is the current length of the fiber as it exits the temperature zone, is the original length of the fiber as it enters the temperature zone.

[0068] Step WA3: Model construction. That is, according to the thermodynamic equation and the mechanical equation set in each reaction unit in step WA2, the temperature in each reaction unit is set to be uniformly distributed in the process of setting the thermodynamic equation and the mechanical equation in each reaction unit. That is, by uniformly distributing the temperature in each reaction unit, the thermodynamic equation and the mechanical equation are simplified to an ordinary differential equation. At the same time, according to the preset time step, the ordinary differential equation is converted into a corresponding difference equation. That is, the difference form of the thermodynamic equation and the mechanical equation obtained is the tension-temperature coupling model constructed by the physical simplified digital twin model.

[0069] It is worth noting that in the embodiment, the thermodynamic equation and the mechanical equation are simplified to an ordinary differential equation, and the ordinary differential equation is converted into a corresponding difference equation, which are all conventional mathematical conversion techniques, so the embodiment is not specifically described.

[0070] In the embodiment, the corresponding tension-temperature coupling model is constructed by a data machine learning model, which is described in detail in the following. Figure 6 The embodiment provides a method for constructing a tension-temperature coupling model by a data machine learning model, which is specifically as follows:

[0071] Step WB1: data acquisition. That is, through the set distributed control system or data acquisition and monitoring control system, the corresponding process parameters and performance parameters are acquired. And according to the acquired process parameters and performance parameters, the corresponding database is constructed.

[0072] Further, the process parameters in the embodiment include the linear speed of the drafting roller, the fiber tension value, the heating zone power and the temperature value. It is worth noting that in the process of collecting each process parameter, the corresponding source of each process parameter is determined, that is, the corresponding acquired drafting roller ID, real-time fiber tension value, heating zone ID and temperature measurement point ID.

[0073] Further, the performance parameters in the embodiment include the tensile strength, elastic modulus and elongation at break of the fiber. It is worth noting that in the process of collecting the performance parameters, according to the production stage corresponding to the collected process parameters, the performance parameters corresponding to the production stage are collected.

[0074] Step WB2: data processing. That is, according to the process parameters and performance parameters collected in step WB1, each parameter is processed according to the preset time window to collect the corresponding data features. It is worth noting that in the process of processing each parameter, the corresponding feature data can be obtained according to the actual demand, so the acquisition of each data feature is not described in the embodiment.

[0075] Further, in the process of processing each parameter in the embodiment, the corresponding tension average value, tension standard deviation, tension slope, temperature curve integral area, temperature maximum value, time point of maximum temperature, maximum value of heating power and standard deviation of heating power can be collected according to the preset time window. That is, according to the collected data features, the corresponding feature vector is constructed.

[0076] Step WB3: model training. That is, according to the feature vector constructed in step WB2, the corresponding labels, i.e. tensile strength value and elastic modulus value, are set, and the set neural network model is trained according to the set feature vector and label to obtain the corresponding trained neural network model, i.e. the corresponding data machine learning model. That is, the tension-temperature coupling model constructed by the data machine learning model is obtained.

[0077] Step SB2: feedforward compensation. That is, according to the preset tension target value and the current fiber tension value, the tension difference value between the two is obtained, and according to the obtained tension difference value, the corresponding tension adjustment instruction is determined. At the same time, the determined tension adjustment instruction is taken as the input of the tension-temperature coupling model constructed in step SB1, and the output of the corresponding temperature pre-compensation instruction is obtained.

[0078] Step SB3: Feedback control. That is, according to the fiber tension and heat treatment temperature collected by the sensing detection module, the corresponding current fiber tension value and current temperature value are determined, and the current fiber tension value is compared with the preset tension target value, and the current temperature value is compared with the preset temperature target value, to determine the corresponding tension adjustment amount and temperature adjustment amount.

[0079] Further, according to the determined tension adjustment amount and temperature adjustment amount, the corresponding PID feedback control instruction is determined through the set controller PID algorithm. For example, the tension adjustment amount is -19N, and the corresponding PID feedback control instruction is "speed up 2%". The temperature adjustment amount is -5℃, and the corresponding PID feedback control instruction is "increase power 1.5%".

[0080] Step SB4: Cooperative adjustment. That is, according to the temperature pre-compensation instruction obtained in step SB2 and the PID feedback control instruction determined in step SB3, the temperature pre-compensation instruction and the PID feedback control instruction are algebraically superimposed to determine the corresponding composite control instruction.

[0081] It is worth noting that the temperature pre-compensation instruction generated in this embodiment is the corresponding power adjustment amount, and the PID feedback control instruction in this embodiment includes a speed adjustment amount and a power adjustment amount. That is, during the process of algebraic superposition, the speed adjustment amount remains unchanged, and the power adjustment amount is superimposed.

[0082] In this embodiment, the monitoring and protection module issues a driving instruction through the composite control instruction, and monitors the comprehensive stability coefficient during the driving process, and adjusts the composite control instruction in real time according to the monitoring result. Referring to Figure 7 , this embodiment provides a monitoring and protection method to adjust the composite control instruction in real time, as follows:

[0083] Step SC1: Driving execution. That is, according to the composite control instruction generated by the decision decoupling module, the corresponding driving instruction, i.e., the corresponding speed adjustment amount and power adjustment amount, is determined. That is, according to the determined speed adjustment amount and power adjustment amount, the drafting mechanism driving unit and the heating mechanism driving unit are regulated and controlled.

[0084] Specifically, in this embodiment, according to the determined speed adjustment amount, the operation of the servo motor and the servo driver in the drafting mechanism driving unit is adjusted to accelerate or decelerate the drafting roller motor, thereby linearly changing the tension on the fiber.

[0085] Further, in the embodiment, the operation of the thyristor power regulator or solid-state relay in the heating mechanism driving unit is specifically adjusted according to the determined power adjustment amount, so as to adjust the output power of the heating element by changing the current conduction angle or on-off ratio, thereby adjusting the furnace temperature in the furnace.

[0086] Step SC2: index calculation. That is, in the process of driving execution in step SC1, the corresponding fiber tension data and heat treatment temperature data are collected by presetting the sampling frequency. At the same time, the obtained fiber tension data and heat treatment temperature data are analyzed and processed by time series analysis to obtain the corresponding oscillation amplitude and oscillation frequency.

[0087] Specifically, in the embodiment, the number of wave crests and the number of wave troughs are determined according to the data waveform obtained by time series analysis. At the same time, the number difference between the wave crests and the wave troughs is determined according to the number of wave crests and the number of wave troughs. And the oscillation amplitude is determined according to the ratio between the number difference between the wave crests and the wave troughs and the preset value (which can be specifically set according to actual needs, so it is not specifically described in the embodiment).

[0088] Further, in the embodiment, the number of oscillations in the preset time is determined according to the data waveform obtained by time series analysis, and the oscillation frequency is determined according to the ratio between the number of oscillations and the preset time.

[0089] Further, the determined oscillation amplitude and oscillation frequency are combined and calculated by a weighting formula, so as to obtain the corresponding comprehensive stability coefficient, specifically:

[0090]

[0091] Wherein: the comprehensive stability coefficient, the amplitude weight factor, the normalized amplitude, the frequency weight factor, the normalized frequency.

[0092] Further, in the embodiment, the oscillation amplitude and the oscillation frequency are normalized to obtain the corresponding normalized amplitude and normalized frequency.

[0093] Step SC3: adjustment control. That is, the comprehensive stability coefficient obtained in step SC2 is compared with the preset stability threshold, and the corresponding control mode is determined according to the comparison result, specifically:

[0094] When the comprehensive stability coefficient is greater than the preset stability threshold, the corresponding control mode is a high-performance mode, that is, the specific operation is performed according to the composite control instruction generated by the decision decoupling module. Conversely, when the comprehensive stability coefficient is not greater than the preset stability threshold, the corresponding control mode is a safety mode, that is, the specific operation is performed according to the preset controller parameters and the target interval. That is, the composite control instruction is adjusted according to the preset controller parameters and the target interval.

[0095] While the embodiments of the application have been illustrated and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the application, which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
