With the continuous development of industry, the performance and reliability requirements of the heat exchanger tube bundle are also increasing. During the long-term operation of the heat exchanger tube bundle, its tube wall will inevitably be affected by various factors. Once corrosion occurs, it will pose a serious threat to the safe operation of the entire unit, and even may cause unplanned shutdown accidents, causing huge economic losses to the enterprise. Therefore, it is of great significance to accurately detect the corrosion condition of the heat exchanger tube bundle and timely discover potential safety hazards. This not only helps to ensure the stable operation of the unit, but also improves production efficiency and reduces operating costs.
[0003] At present, in the field of pipeline component detection, water-immersed ultrasonic probes are widely used due to their stable coupling, high detection accuracy, low loss, and strong adaptability. For general pipeline component detection, the common practice is to immerse the pipeline component in water and then detect it by using a water-immersed ultrasonic probe. This method can meet the detection requirements to some extent and provides an effective means for the quality detection of pipeline components. However, in the detection of the shell-and-tube heat exchanger tube bundle, since the volume of the heat exchanger is usually large and the disassembly of the tube bundle and internal components is difficult, if the existing water-immersed ultrasonic probe is used for detection, a large-volume water pool needs to be provided for the heat exchanger.

[0049] Embodiment 2 With reference to Figure 7 , Figure 8 The difference between the embodiment and the embodiment 1 is that the first sealing assembly 6 is arranged on the first stop block 23, the first sealing assembly 6 seals the gap between the first stop block 23 and the inner wall of the tube bundle 1, the second sealing assembly 7 is arranged on the second stop block 24, and the second sealing assembly 7 seals the gap between the second stop block 24 and the inner wall of the tube bundle 1.
[0050] With reference to Figure 8 , Figure 9The first sealing assembly 6 in the embodiment includes a first elastic sealing layer 61 and a second elastic sealing layer 62. Both the first elastic sealing layer 61 and the second elastic sealing layer 62 are made of rubber. A sealing cavity 63 is formed in the first block 23. The sealing cavity 63 includes an annular groove 631 and an extrusion cavity 632. The annular groove 631 is arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the first block 23. Correspondingly, the drainage channel 26 in the embodiment is arranged inside the first block 23. The drainage channel 26 is independent of the annular groove 631. The first elastic sealing layer 61 covers the opening of the annular groove 631 to block the opening of the annular groove 631. The number of the extrusion cavities 632 is two. The two extrusion cavities 632 are symmetrically arranged along the axis of the first block 23. One end of the extrusion cavity 632 is in communication with the annular groove 631, and the other end penetrates to the side of the first block 23 away from the PA probe 21. The second elastic sealing layer 62 covers the extrusion cavity 632 to block the opening of the extrusion cavity 632. The second elastic sealing layer 62 is spaced apart from the port of the extrusion cavity 632 by a certain distance. The sealing cavity 63 forms a closed environment under the blocking of the first elastic sealing layer 61 and the second elastic sealing layer 62. Initially, a certain pressure of inert gas is introduced into the sealing cavity 63. The first elastic sealing layer 61 and the second elastic sealing layer 62 do not have outward convex deformation.
[0051] With reference to Figure 9 , Figure 10 The first block 23 is provided with an extrusion piece 64. The extrusion piece 64 in the embodiment includes a connecting rod 641 and an extrusion plate 642. The connecting rod 641 is slidably arranged in the center of the first block 23. The extrusion plate 642 is fixedly connected with the connecting rod 641 and is located on the side of the first block 23 away from the PA probe 21. An extrusion rod 643 is fixedly arranged on the extrusion plate 642. The extrusion rod 643 corresponds to the extrusion cavities 632 and is inserted into the corresponding extrusion cavities 632. The diameter of the extrusion rod 643 is smaller than the diameter of the extrusion cavities 632. One end of the connecting rod 641 is connected with the PA probe 21 through a PPR insert joint.
[0052] Under the water pressure of the water storage space 25, the first block 23 moves towards the extrusion plate 642 to make the extrusion rod 643 on the extrusion plate 642 extrude the second elastic sealing layer 62, so as to make the first elastic sealing layer 61 outwardly convex to the first block 23, enhance the sealing effect of the first block 23 and the inner wall of the tube bundle 1, and reduce the water leakage of the water storage space 25. No additional action is needed to extrude the second elastic sealing layer 62, thereby improving the convenience of the sealing of the first elastic sealing layer 61.
[0053] With reference to Figure 9 , Figure 10The base 651 is fixed on the connecting rod 641 and is arranged opposite to the side of the first block 23 close to the PA probe 21. Four extrusion springs 652 are fixed on the side of the base 651 close to the first block 23. The four extrusion springs 652 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the connecting rod 641. The other ends of the extrusion springs 652 are fixed with a mounting ring 653. The mounting ring 653 is sleeved on the connecting rod 641. Two stop rods 654 are hingedly connected to the base 651. The two stop rods 654 are symmetrically arranged about the connecting rod 641 and are located inside the four extrusion springs 652. The rotation plane of the stop rod 654 is coplanar with the axis of the connecting rod 641.
[0054] With reference to Figure 9 , Figure 10 The control sleeve 655 is fixed on the first block 23 and is sleeved on the connecting rod 641 and is in sliding connection with the connecting rod 641. The control block 656 is arranged on each stop rod 654 and is opposite to the control sleeve 655. When the control block 656 abuts against the control sleeve 655, the two stop rods 654 form an eight-shaped structure with the opening facing the first block 23. The mounting ring 653 abuts against the side of the two stop rods 654 away from the first block 23. At this time, the extrusion springs 652 are in the compressed state. When the first block 23 moves towards the extrusion plate 642 under the water pressure, the control block 656 is separated from the control sleeve 655. The two stop rods 654 rotate towards the connecting rod 641, so that the stop rod 654 releases the blockage of the mounting ring 653. The extrusion springs 652 are elongated and contact the first block 23 and apply a pushing force to the first block 23.
[0055] With reference to Figure 8 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 The second sealing assembly 7 comprises a third elastic sealing layer 71. The annular sealing groove 72 is arranged on the surface of the circumferential wall of the second block 24. The drainage channel 26 on the corresponding second block 24 is embedded in the second block 24 and is independent of the annular sealing groove 72. The third elastic sealing layer 71 covers the opening of the annular sealing groove 72 and seals the opening of the annular sealing groove 72. The gas supply pipe 73 is embedded in the support 3 and is arranged in communication with the annular sealing groove 72. The gas supply pipe 73 is connected with a gas pump and delivers gas to the annular sealing groove 72. As the pressure of the annular sealing groove 72 increases, the third elastic sealing layer 71 protrudes outward from the second block 24 and seals the gap between the second block 24 and the tube bundle 1.
[0056] The implementation principle of embodiment 2 is that when the tube bundle 1 is detected, the water supply pipe 22 supplies water to the water storage space 25, as the water in the water storage space 25 gradually increases, the water pressure pushes the first stop block 23 to slide towards the pressing plate 642, the first stop block 23 drives the control sleeve 655 to be separated from the control block 656, so that the stop rod 654 releases the block of the mounting ring 653, the pressing spring 652 is pushed towards the first stop block 23, and the first stop block 23 is pressed, so that the extrusion rod 643 on the extrusion plate 642 extrudes the second elastic sealing layer 62 towards the extrusion cavity 632, so that the inner product of the sealing cavity 63 is reduced, the gas pressure cavity is increased, the gas pushes the first elastic sealing layer 61 to protrude outwards the first stop block 23, and the gap between the first stop block 23 and the tube bundle 1 is sealed. At the same time, the gas pump inflates the annular groove 631, so that the third elastic sealing layer 71 protrudes outwards the second stop block 24, and the gap between the second stop block 24 and the tube bundle 1 is sealed. The first elastic sealing layer 61 and the third elastic sealing layer 71 seal the gaps between the first stop block 23, the second stop block 24 and the inner wall of the tube bundle 1 respectively, so as to avoid water leakage in the water storage space 25, ensure the stability of the PA probe 21 detection process using water as the coupling medium, and improve the detection accuracy.
