Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of infrared imaging detection and industrial process monitoring, specifically a system for monitoring the temperature and concentration distribution of reaction gases based on infrared thermal imaging analysis. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial reaction monitoring environments, the gas flow field inside reaction vessels exhibits complex dynamic changes, and the temperature and concentration distributions have highly nonlinear coupling characteristics. Existing monitoring schemes, when using infrared thermal imaging technology for non-contact detection, typically treat the observed pixel intensity as a reflection of a single physical quantity, or employ fixed linear compensation algorithms.
[0003] Because the radiation energy observed in infrared images includes the gas's own thermal radiation, the residual radiation of background radiation after being affected by the medium, and environmental stray radiation, this ill-conditioned equation characteristic of single-source observation and multiple unknown sources makes it difficult for the system to accurately separate the absorption and emission characteristics of the gas in complex backgrounds. Although simple image processing methods have been introduced, the lack of in-depth exploration of the spatiotemporal correlation of gas flow and the absence of a feedback correction mechanism based on physical constraints result in severe signal aliasing between the retrieved temperature field and concentration field. The processing flow is sensitive to background noise, has low measurement accuracy and a slow response, making it difficult to support accurate identification and rapid early warning of abnormal reaction states.
[0004] Therefore, improving the real-time performance, accuracy, and independence of physical field reconstruction of the deconstruction of the temperature and concentration characteristics of the reacting gas has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention
[0005] When the reactant gas is in the diffusion-dominated stage or reaches a local thermal equilibrium, although there is microscopic coupling, the spatial distribution of the temperature field and concentration field can be regarded as being dominated by different physical mechanisms in terms of macroscopic statistical characteristics. They are controlled by thermal conductivity and mass diffusion coefficient, respectively, and the two show a weak correlation statistically. Therefore, their joint probability distribution should be close to the product of the marginal distributions, and their mutual information value should approach zero. Especially in the region dominated by the mass transport mechanism, or as a regularization constraint to suppress the divergence of the solution space in the strong reaction coupling region, this statistical independence is based on the difference between mass transport and energy transport in the microscopic mechanism, thus showing a decoupling feature in the macroscopic distribution texture. This system uses this physical statistical characteristic as an information theory constraint for feedback optimization. The purpose of this invention is to provide a reactive gas temperature and concentration distribution monitoring system based on infrared thermal imaging analysis to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Specifically, the technical solution of this invention includes: The image data acquisition module is used to acquire an infrared thermal image sequence containing the flow state of the reactive gas and simultaneously call the preset background radiation reference data. The flow field dynamic analysis module is used to perform spatiotemporal correlation analysis based on the infrared thermal image sequence, calculate the optical flow vector field of the reactant gas, and extract the dynamic gas region based on the optical flow vector field. The radiation coupling deconstruction module is used to combine the background radiation reference data with the pixel intensity of the dynamic gas region to perform nonlinear radiation signal separation processing to generate the thermal radiation dominant component matrix and the medium attenuation dominant component matrix. The dual-field independent reconstruction module is used to generate a gas temperature distribution field based on the dominant component matrix of thermal radiation and to generate a gas concentration distribution field based on the dominant component matrix of medium attenuation. An adaptive feedback optimization module is used to generate feedback correction coefficients based on the mutual information characteristics of the gas temperature distribution field and the gas concentration distribution field, and to iteratively update the calculation parameters of the radiation coupling deconstruction module using the feedback correction coefficients.
[0006] Preferably, the flow field dynamic analysis module performs the following operations when calculating the optical flow vector field of the reacting gas: Call the current frame image and the previous frame image in the infrared thermal imaging sequence; Based on the brightness conservation assumption and spatial smoothness constraint, the instantaneous velocity vector of the pixel in the current frame image is calculated; Construct the optical flow vector field describing the direction and velocity of gas flow; The optical flow vector field is used to characterize the transport path and diffusion trend of the reactant gas.
[0007] Preferably, the radiation coupling deconstruction module performs the following operations when performing nonlinear radiation signal separation processing: The background radiation reference data is introduced as a known boundary condition; Construct a set of radiative transfer equations that include the gas's own emissivity and gas transmissivity; By utilizing the spatial non-uniformity of the background radiation reference data, differential calculations are performed on the radiation differences of the same gas mass in different background regions within the dynamic gas region. Solve the radiative transfer equations to separate the dominant thermal radiation component matrix, which characterizes the thermal emission intensity of the gas itself, and the dominant medium attenuation component matrix, which characterizes the degree of absorption of background radiation by the gas.
[0008] Preferably, the radiation coupling deconstruction module is also configured with temperature and concentration feature decoupling logic, used for: Calculate the mutual information value between the dominant thermal radiation component matrix and the dominant medium attenuation component matrix; Determine whether the mutual information value is less than a preset independence threshold; If the mutual information value is greater than or equal to the independence threshold, the weighting coefficients in the radiative transfer equations are adjusted until the mutual information value between the two matrices converges to the minimum. The minimization of the mutual information value represents the maximum statistical separation between the temperature feature and the concentration feature.
[0009] Preferably, the dual-field independent reconstruction module performs the following operations when inverting and generating the gas temperature distribution field and the gas concentration distribution field: Call the preset temperature-radiation mapping model and concentration-transmittance mapping model; The dominant component matrix of thermal radiation is input into the temperature-radiation mapping model to generate the gas temperature distribution field. The dominant component matrix of medium attenuation is input into the concentration-transmittance mapping model to generate the gas concentration distribution field. Wherein, both the gas temperature distribution field and the gas concentration distribution field are two-dimensional scalar fields with the same resolution as the infrared thermal image sequence.
[0010] Preferably, the adaptive feedback optimization module is also used to perform flow field consistency verification: Based on the temporal changes of the gas temperature distribution field or the gas concentration distribution field, the reconstructed flow field vector is derived; Calculate the matching error between the reconstructed flow field vector and the optical flow vector field; If the matching error exceeds a preset physical constraint threshold, a negative feedback instruction is generated to correct the background radiation reference data of the radiation coupling deconstruction module. The matching error is used to evaluate whether the reconstruction result conforms to the principle of fluid dynamics continuity.
[0011] Preferably, when acquiring background radiation reference data, the image data acquisition module performs the following operations: Under the initial state of being filled with unreacted gas, thermal radiation images of the background environment are acquired; Alternatively, identify static regions in the infrared thermal image sequence whose optical flow vector magnitude is less than the stationary noise threshold, and extract the radiation value of the static region as a local background reference; if the optical flow magnitude of the entire field of view is greater than or equal to the stationary noise threshold, i.e., no static region can be found, then call the background reference data stored at the previous moment or the initially calibrated background data as a reference. The collected or extracted data is subjected to smooth interpolation to generate the background radiation reference data covering the entire field of view.
[0012] Preferably, this system also includes: The status assessment and early warning module is used for: Receive the gas temperature distribution field and the gas concentration distribution field; Identify local overheated regions in the gas temperature distribution field and abnormal concentration gradient regions in the gas concentration distribution field; When the temperature value of the local overheated area or the gradient value of the abnormal concentration gradient area exceeds the safety threshold, an abnormal reaction warning signal is output.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following improvements and advantages: 1. This invention introduces statistical mutual information features as constraints in the radiation coupling deconstruction module, and uses an adaptive feedback optimization module to dynamically adjust the background difference confidence weights in the radiative transfer equations. Through iterative updates until the mutual information values of the dominant thermal radiation component and the dominant medium attenuation component converge to a minimum, the system successfully separates the temperature and concentration characteristics of the gas to the greatest extent at the mathematical and statistical level. This overcomes the technical bottleneck in traditional infrared monitoring where the data dimension of a single detector is insufficient to distinguish the radiation characteristics of high-temperature gases and high-concentration gases, and significantly improves the independence and accuracy of physical field inversion in complex environments.
[0014] 2. The system of this invention calculates the optical flow vector field through a flow field dynamic analysis module. It can not only accurately capture the gas transport path and diffusion trend using brightness conservation and spatial smoothness constraints, but also intelligently identify static regions in the field of view to extract local background references. Combined with bilinear interpolation or Kriging interpolation algorithms, the system can dynamically piece together complete background reference data covering the entire field of view using gaps in gas flow during online operation, even without equipment shutdown or emptied reaction vessels. This dual-mode background acquisition strategy greatly enhances the system's adaptability to changes in the on-site environment, avoiding production losses caused by downtime calibration.
[0015] 3. The adaptive feedback optimization module of this invention innovatively establishes a verification logic based on flow field consistency. By comparing the matching error between the reconstructed flow field vector derived from the temperature field or humidity field and the actual observed optical flow vector field, it evaluates whether the inversion result conforms to the principle of fluid dynamics continuity. When the error exceeds the physical constraint threshold, the system generates a negative feedback command to correct the background radiation reference data. This physical-data dual-driven closed-loop control mechanism ensures that the final output temperature and concentration distribution fields are not only numerically convergent, but also physically and logically rigorously unified, effectively eliminating false data distortions caused by noise or algorithm deviations.
[0016] 4. This invention benefits from the dual-field independent reconstruction module, which transforms abstract radiation components into specific two-dimensional scalar fields. The system can independently assess local overheated regions in the gas temperature distribution field and abnormal concentration gradient regions in the gas concentration distribution field. This mechanism enables the system to accurately distinguish between simple high-temperature interference and dangerous leaks accompanied by high-concentration accumulation, or high-concentration diffusion risks in low-temperature environments. Compared to traditional single-threshold alarm methods, this multi-dimensional early warning mechanism has higher specificity and can provide more accurate and timely feedback on abnormal states for industrial safety production.

The radiation coupling deconstruction module is used to combine background radiation reference data with pixel intensity of dynamic gas region to perform nonlinear radiation signal separation processing to generate thermal radiation dominant component matrix and medium attenuation dominant component matrix. The dual-field independent reconstruction module is used to generate the gas temperature distribution field based on the dominant component matrix of thermal radiation and to generate the gas concentration distribution field based on the dominant component matrix of medium attenuation. The adaptive feedback optimization module is used to generate feedback correction coefficients based on the mutual information characteristics of the gas temperature distribution field and the gas concentration distribution field, and to iteratively update the calculation parameters of the radiation coupling deconstruction module using the feedback correction coefficients.
[0019] This embodiment details the core architecture logic of the aforementioned system; the image data acquisition module is equipped with a high-sensitivity infrared focal plane array detector, which uses a sampling frequency determined by hardware settings. The unit is Hz, which refers to the sampling frequency, which has a physical meaning of time resolution and is measured in Hz, used to acquire infrared thermal image sequences of the interior of the reaction vessel. The flow field dynamic analysis module receives this sequence, uses the gas flow characteristics to locate the analysis object, and sets a static noise threshold. Dynamic gas regions are extracted based on the criterion that the optical flow modulus value is greater than the threshold. ; Here The specific setting logic is as follows: data is collected under conditions of no gas injection. Calculate the noise magnitude distribution of the optical flow field from the background image frame, and take the distribution... upper limit value as ,in The standard deviation is used to eliminate random thermal noise interference from static backgrounds; based on this, the radiative coupling deconstruction module, based on the principle of radiative transfer, calculates the observed pixel intensity. Considered as the dominant component of thermal radiation and the dominant component of medium attenuation Nonlinear combinations are used to solve ill-conditioned equation problems with single-source observations and dual-source unknowns; The dual-field independent reconstruction module uses a pre-calibrated physical mapping model to transform abstract radiation components into specific physical fields; the adaptive feedback optimization module is based on the physical assumption that temperature and humidity distributions should be statistically independent in a free diffusion flow field. If the mutual information is too high, a feedback gradient command is generated to iteratively update the solution parameters in the radiation coupling deconstruction module until the mutual information converges. right and All pixel values in the matrix are discretized and binned. The number of pixels falling into each joint interval is counted, and the joint probability distribution is obtained after normalization. The estimate; and They are respectively and The marginal probability distribution is obtained by summing the joint distribution by rows or columns; where the mutual information eigenvalues are... The calculation uses the histogram statistical method, based on the Shannon entropy definition: Update the solution parameters using gradient descent. That is, the background difference confidence weight, and the update formula follows: In the formula, For the number of iterations, For learning rate step size with adaptive dimensional compensation, The mutual information eigenvalues are used to dynamically adjust the constraint strength during the deconstruction process.
[0020] Example 2: When calculating the optical flow vector field of the reacting gas, the flow field dynamic analysis module performs the following operations: Call the current frame image and the previous frame image in the infrared thermal imaging sequence; Based on the brightness conservation assumption and spatial smoothness constraint, the instantaneous velocity vector of the pixel in the current frame image is calculated; Construct an optical flow vector field that describes the direction and velocity of gas flow.
[0021] The optical flow vector field is used to characterize the transport path and diffusion trend of the reactant gas. This embodiment specifies the calculation logic of the flow field dynamic analysis module. To accurately capture the flow trend of the reactant gas, the system introduces a brightness conservation constraint equation, the physical basis of which is the assumption that the same gas mass will diffuse in a very short time. The internal radiation characteristics remain unchanged, and the calculation logic follows the formula: in, The image grayscale value originates from an infrared thermal imaging sequence. for The directional velocity component, in physical terms, represents the instantaneous velocity of a pixel; For time; to address the aperture problem in the above equations, this embodiment introduces a global smoothing constraint and constructs an energy functional. Minimize the solution: In the formula, The image grayscale values are respectively in Spatial and time partial derivatives of the direction; The smoothing weighting coefficient is derived from a preset value and its physical meaning is the strength of the flow field continuity constraint. For gradient operators; The flow field dynamic analysis module obtains the instantaneous velocity vector of each pixel by iteratively solving for the minimum value of the above functional. Thus, an optical flow vector field is constructed; In this embodiment, under complex flow field scenarios with low infrared image contrast and blurred edges, the variational optical flow method is used to robustly calculate the motion vector of the gas. This optical flow vector field is not only used to extract dynamic regions, but also provides a key motion trajectory tracking basis for subsequent differential calculations based on the characteristic of the same gas mass moving between different backgrounds.

Specifically, this depends on the signal-to-noise ratio level of the image acquisition device. To prevent the singularity problem of zero denominator, a regularized least squares solution formula is constructed: Among them, the dominant component matrix of dielectric attenuation Each element is the transmissivity value of the gas at that pixel location, which is dimensionless. The regularization coefficient has the same dimensions as the regularization coefficient. Same, for That is, the square of the radiance, initial value Usually set to That is, one-thousandth of the background radiation variance, to avoid numerical instability caused by an excessively small denominator; This formula not only avoids numerical singularities, but also... The introduction of this establishes a control connection with the feedback loop; the solution is... Then, substitute the original equation to find the solution. This allows for a mathematically rigorous and robust separation of the shielding properties and spontaneous emission properties of gases.

The setting is based on the statistical benchmark value of mutual information between two independent random variables with a finite sample size, which is usually taken as a value. to ; Targeting mutual information To address the issue of non-differentiability caused by histogram statistics, this embodiment employs the finite difference perturbation method to estimate the gradient: in, The perturbation step size, in physical terms, represents the numerical differentiation accuracy; based on this estimated gradient, the system updates using the gradient descent method. The updated formula is as follows along with Iterative adjustments and The generation process is dynamically reshaped until the mutual information converges to a minimum, thereby achieving the maximum decoupling of temperature and concentration characteristics at the statistical level.

Using bilinear interpolation or kriging interpolation algorithms, the background radiation value of the area blocked by gas was estimated, and finally background radiation reference data covering the entire field of view was generated. This embodiment solves the problem of difficult background radiation data acquisition through a dual-mode strategy. In particular, it uses the gaps in gas flow to dynamically piece together a complete background reference, allowing the system to acquire effective reference data even when it is impossible to shut down and empty the container, thus significantly improving the system's field adaptability.

This embodiment, based on decoupled independent field data, can distinguish between simple high temperature and high temperature accompanied by high concentration accumulation, or high concentration leakage at low temperature. This multi-dimensional early warning mechanism has higher specificity and sensitivity than a single temperature threshold alarm, effectively reducing false alarm and false negative rates.

The matching error is used to evaluate whether the reconstruction result conforms to the principle of fluid dynamics continuity.
6. The reactive gas temperature and concentration distribution monitoring system based on infrared thermal imaging analysis according to claim 1, characterized in that, When acquiring background radiation reference data, the image data acquisition module performs the following operations: Under the initial state of being filled with unreacted gas, thermal radiation images of the background environment are acquired; Alternatively, identify static regions in the infrared thermal image sequence whose optical flow vector magnitude is less than the stationary noise threshold, and extract the radiation value of the static region as a local background reference; if the optical flow magnitude of the entire field of view is greater than or equal to the stationary noise threshold, i.e., no static region can be found, then call the background reference data stored at the previous moment or the initially calibrated background data as a reference. The collected or extracted data is subjected to smooth interpolation to generate the background radiation reference data covering the entire field of view.
