Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of high-speed wire production, and in particular to a method and apparatus for measuring the temperature of a wire, a storage medium, and a computer device.
[0002] This application claims priority to a Chinese patent application bearing application number 202310905741.3 and entitled "Method and apparatus for measuring temperature of wire, storage medium, and computer device," filed with the China Patent Office on July 21, 2023, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [Background technology]
[0003] Stelmor controlled cooling is often used to achieve intelligent temperature control of wire. The Stelmor controlled cooling process is arranged as follows: the wire exiting the finishing mill unit immediately enters the water cooling section, which consists of multiple water tanks, for forced water cooling. It then passes through pinch rollers to the laying head, where it is formed into a coil. It is then laid in a loose roll on the continuously operating Stelmor conveyor, which is equipped with a fan for blowing air cooling. Finally, the wire enters the take-up drum, where it is wound and collected. The water cooling section controls the temperature of the rolled strip to prevent grain growth and prepare for subsequent phase transformation. The air cooling section controls the phase transformation of the rolled strip at a constant cooling rate to achieve the desired microstructure. The mechanical properties and microstructure of the wire depend primarily on the phase transformation process during the air cooling process. Therefore, precise control of the cooling rate during the phase transformation process is crucial. However, factors such as the harsh production environment on-site, the geometric characteristics of the wire itself, changes in the position of the temperature measurement target due to the wire vibrating left and right on the roller, and effective radiation generated by overlapping wires make existing temperature measurement methods difficult and reduce the accuracy of temperature measurement.
[0004] Currently, there are two main methods for measuring wire temperature in Stelmor air-cooling lines. One is to predict wire temperature changes using modeling and simulation of the wire air-cooling process. The other is non-contact temperature measurement, which directly measures the wire temperature. In the first method, the parameters of the model are set based on the wire temperature measured at the production site, so the accuracy of the model is limited by the accuracy of the measured temperature. In the second method, most companies currently use fixed spot thermometers as equipment to measure wire temperature, with a few using scanning spot thermometers. Due to the influence of the mesh structure caused by overlapping wires, the size of the object to be measured must be larger than the spot size of the spot thermometer, as a prerequisite for temperature measurement using a spot thermometer. However, the diameter of the wire is approximately 5.5 to 20 mm, making it difficult to accurately measure the wire temperature. Therefore, to reliably measure the wire temperature, it is common to select an area a certain distance from the end of the wire. This area is considered the effective temperature measurement area because it is not affected by holes caused by overlapping wires. With fixed spot thermometers, the position of the object to be measured is fixed, and the wire moves sideways as it moves forward on the rollers, making it difficult to align the thermometer with the object. Scanning spot thermometers scan the effective temperature measurement area up and down and perform peak filtering to obtain temperature information on the wire and capture the target measurement area, but temperature information may be missed due to the scanning cycle. Furthermore, scanning spot thermometers cannot solve the problem of instability and inaccuracy in temperature measurement results caused by effective radiation between wires.

[0025] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, together with examples. Note that the examples and features of the examples in the present application may be combined with each other as long as they are not inconsistent.
[0026] In this embodiment, a method for measuring the temperature of a wire is provided, and as shown in FIG. 1, the method includes the following steps 101 to 104.
[0027] Step 101: An infrared thermal image of the wire rod to be measured for temperature is acquired in real time.
[0028] Stelmor controlled cooling is an intelligent temperature control method that eliminates or reduces post-heat treatment in downstream processes such as quenching, annealing, and hardening / tempering, thereby saving energy and the environment and improving the cost competitiveness of rolling mills. By utilizing roller conveyors, cooling fans under the conveyor, and insulating covers above the conveyor, various products can be produced using just one cooling line.
[0029] In this embodiment, the temperature of the wire is measured during air cooling in the Stelmor controlled cooling process. Specifically, to capture infrared thermal images of the wire being measured in real time, a temperature measurement system is constructed to measure the temperature of the wire, and the thermal imager of the temperature measurement system captures infrared thermal images of the entire wire, ensuring the completeness of the temperature measurement information. The thermal imager's installation requirements are as follows: To ensure temperature measurement accuracy, the temperature measurement direction at all temperature measurement points must form an angle of less than 45° with the normal direction of the wire surface, so that the entire wire is covered. Furthermore, the thermal imager's spatial resolution must be less than one-third of the wire being measured. Furthermore, the thermal imager requires calibration for accurate use. The temperature measurement system is shown in Figure 2, and the wire is shown in Figure 3.
[0030] Step 102: Determine an effective temperature measurement area based on the infrared thermal image and the characteristic information of the wire material that is the temperature measurement target.
[0031] Next, the effective temperature measurement area is determined from the infrared thermal image and the characteristic information of the wire to be measured. During actual wire production, the effective temperature measurement area moves in the roller conveyance direction and laterally perpendicular to the roller, so neither fixed spot thermometers nor scanning spot thermometers can completely capture the temperature information of the effective temperature measurement area in real time. By determining the target area according to the difference between the temperature characteristics of the wire and the surrounding environment and then extracting the temperature measurement area according to the target area, the effective temperature measurement area of the wire can be dynamically captured while the wire is moving, thereby improving the accuracy of temperature measurement.
[0032] Step 103: Create a wire geometric model of the wire whose temperature is to be measured, project a predetermined ray onto the wire geometric model, trace the ray propagation path of the predetermined ray, and calculate the effective emissivity based on the tracing result of the ray propagation path.
[0033] Next, a wire geometric model of the wire whose temperature is to be measured is created. For example, the measurement object geometric model is created based on the geometric shape of the measurement object (wire whose temperature is to be measured), the optical properties of the material, the surface properties, and the isothermal conditions of the cavity. Because it is difficult to experimentally measure the effective emissivity, a model calculation method such as the Monte Carlo method (MCM) is usually used to calculate the effective emissivity of the wire whose temperature is to be measured. The Monte Carlo method can calculate the effective emissivity at any point on the inner surface of the cavity based on the geometric model of the cavity. To this end, a predetermined ray is projected onto the wire geometric model, the ray propagation path of the predetermined ray is traced, and the effective emissivity is calculated based on the results of the light propagation path tracing.
[0034] Step 104: Correct the temperature measurement value of the effective temperature measurement area based on the effective emissivity to obtain a corrected temperature measurement result.
[0035] Next, the temperature measurement value of the effective temperature measurement area is corrected based on the effective emissivity to obtain the corrected temperature measurement result. Due to the overlapping state of actual wires, the energy at a certain point on a wire includes not only the energy radiated by the wire itself but also the energy reflected from other wires, i.e., it is affected by effective radiation. However, in actual temperature measurements, the intrinsic emissivity of the wire where the thermal imager is placed only takes into account the energy radiated by the wire itself, resulting in inaccurate temperature measurement results. Creating a calculation model of effective emissivity to process temperature measurement results from a thermal imager improves the stability and accuracy of temperature measurements.
[0036] By utilizing the technical solution of this embodiment, an infrared thermal image of the wire to be measured is acquired in real time, and an effective temperature measurement area is determined based on the infrared thermal image and characteristic information of the wire to be measured. A wire geometric model of the wire to be measured is created, a predetermined ray is projected onto the wire geometric model, and the ray propagation path of the predetermined ray is traced. Based on the traced ray propagation path, the effective emissivity is calculated. The measured temperature of the effective temperature measurement area is corrected based on the effective emissivity, and a corrected temperature measurement result is obtained. An infrared thermal image is acquired and analyzed using an image processing method, whereby the effective temperature measurement area is dynamically captured, the effective emissivity between the wire is calculated and analyzed, and the measured temperature of the wire is corrected, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the temperature measurement.
[0037] Furthermore, as a refinement and extension of the specific embodiment of the above example, another wire temperature measurement method is provided to fully describe the specific implementation process of this example. As shown in Figure 4, the method includes the following steps 301 to 308:
[0038] Step 301: An infrared thermal image of the wire to be temperature-measured is acquired in real time, and an effective temperature measurement area is determined based on the infrared thermal image and characteristic information of the wire to be temperature-measured.
[0039] In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present application, an infrared thermal image of the wire to be measured for temperature is acquired in real time, and an effective temperature measurement area is determined from the infrared thermal image and characteristic information of the wire to be measured for temperature, and the effective temperature measurement area is dynamically captured, thereby improving the accuracy of temperature measurement.
[0040] Step 302: Create a wire geometric model of the wire to be measured for temperature, create multiple tracking rays, determine the projection angle of each tracking ray and the intrinsic emissivity of the wire, and for any of the tracking rays, project the tracking ray onto a target projection point of the wire geometric model according to the corresponding projection angle, so that the tracking ray propagates according to the target projection point.
[0041] Optionally, in step 302, creating a wire geometric model of the wire to be temperature measured includes the following steps 302-1 and 302-2.
[0042] Step 302-1: Obtain wire geometric parameters of the wire to be measured for temperature, where the wire geometric parameters are spatial coordinate parameters of the wire to be measured for temperature on the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis of a preset spatial coordinate system.
[0043] Step 302-2: Based on the spatial coordinate parameters, a wire geometric model of the wire whose temperature is to be measured is created in a preset spatial coordinate system. Step 303: Trace the ray propagation path after any traced ray of a line geometric model is cast, where the line geometric model includes a plurality of target cast points.
[0044] Step 304: When the ray to be tracked is projected onto the target projection point of the wire geometric model, a random number is generated, and if the random number is greater than the inherent emissivity of the wire to be temperature measured, the ray to be tracked is reflected.
[0045] Step 305: If the random number is less than the specific emissivity of the wire whose temperature is to be measured, the traced ray is absorbed.
[0046] Step 306: Calculate the local effective emissivity of the target projection point based on the number of absorbed traced rays and the total number of traced rays, and obtain the effective emissivity of the wire geometric model based on the local effective emissivities of the multiple target projection points.
[0047] Next, before calculating the effective emissivity of the wire, a geometric model of the wire must be created. A three-dimensional spatial wire surface model (wire geometric model) is created based on the actual parameters of the production site and the wire (including wire diameter, wire diameter, roller speed, rolling speed, etc.). Next, as shown in Figure 5, the effective emissivity of the wire is calculated using the Monte Carlo method and the created wire geometric model. Specifically, multiple target rays are created and each is projected onto a target projection point on the wire geometric model. For each target ray, the wire geometric model tracks the ray propagation path after the target ray is projected. If the random number is greater than the intrinsic emissivity of the wire whose temperature is being measured, the target ray is reflected. If the random number is less than the intrinsic emissivity of the wire whose temperature is being measured, the target ray is absorbed. The local effective emissivity of the target projection point is calculated from the number of absorbed target rays and the total number of target rays. The effective emissivity of the wire geometric model is then obtained from the local effective emissivities of the multiple target projection points.
[0048] Step 307: Filter the temperature measurements in the effective temperature measurement area to obtain a plurality of filtered peak temperatures.
[0049] Step 308: Determine a peak effective emissivity within a plurality of change periods according to the change period of the effective emissivity, calculate a peak temperature interference deviation value based on the difference between the peak effective emissivity and the intrinsic emissivity, and correct the peak temperature by the peak temperature interference deviation value to obtain a corrected temperature measurement result.
[0050] Next, the temperature measurements in the effective temperature measurement area are filtered to obtain multiple filtered peak temperatures. The peak effective emissivity within the multiple change periods is determined according to the effective emissivity change period. The peak temperature interference deviation is calculated based on the difference between the peak effective emissivity and the intrinsic emissivity. The peak temperature is then corrected using the peak temperature interference deviation to obtain the corrected temperature measurement result. Specifically, a wide change range in effective emissivity can result in increased fluctuations in the wire temperature measurement. Considering that the wire's mesh structure results in alternating high and low temperature values, a peak filtering method is adopted to improve the stability and reliability of temperature measurement. Because the effective emissivity changes periodically, the space and time for temperature filtering can be selected based on the effective emissivity. Because the effective emissivity is periodic, the peak effective emissivity also has periodicity. Considering that the peak temperature within each period is unique, a reasonable filtering space is selected to peak filter the temperature information. The filtering space selection takes into account the effective emissivity period, the width of the effective temperature measurement area, and the control requirements for the transverse temperature (perpendicular to the conveying direction). The filtering time must be selected to capture peak temperatures even under non-uniform overlap conditions while maintaining consistent effective temperature information. Therefore, the peak temperature in the effective temperature measurement area can be corrected by the peak effective emissivity. In actual overlap conditions, the effective temperature measurement area at the end of the wire reaches a thickness of 50 to 200 mm. This area is significantly affected by effective radiation, and the temperature values acquired by the thermal imager are based on the intrinsic emissivity of the wire. To obtain more accurate temperature measurement results, the temperature measurements in this area must be corrected. Due to the uniqueness of the peak effective emissivity within the same cycle and the correspondence between the peak effective emissivity and the peak temperature, the peak temperature obtained by peak filtering in the effective temperature measurement area can be corrected by the difference between the peak effective emissivity and the intrinsic emissivity of the wire within the same cycle, thereby achieving stable and accurate temperature measurement results.
[0051] Furthermore, based on accurate temperature measurement, the transverse temperature distribution curve of the wire can be obtained based on the temperature field measurement, which can be used to guide the airflow configuration of the "optiflex" equipment and improve the uniformity of the wire cooling. In addition, by arranging multiple measurement points, the temperature curve of the wire throughout the cooling process can be obtained, which can be used to understand and control the cooling speed of the wire, thereby achieving the predetermined product quality and performance.
[0052] By utilizing the technical solution of this embodiment, a temperature measurement system is installed based on the actual parameters of the production site, and then an image processing method is used to analyze and process the infrared thermal image of the wire collected by the thermal imager, thereby dynamically capturing the effective temperature measurement area of the wire during the wire's movement; and based on the calculation result of the effective emissivity calculation model, a reasonable filtering space and time are selected to perform peak filtering on the temperature measurement information of the wire, correct the peak temperature, and finally obtain the temperature value of the wire, thus improving the accuracy and stability of the temperature measurement.
[0053] Furthermore, as a refinement and extension of the specific embodiment of the above example, in order to fully describe the specific implementation process of this example, another wire temperature measurement method is provided. As shown in Figure 6, the method includes the following steps 401 to 406:
[0054] Step 401: Obtain an infrared thermal image of the wire to be measured in real time, and spatially transform the infrared thermal image according to the shooting angle of the infrared thermal image to obtain the physical position of each pixel in the infrared thermal image.
[0055] Step 402: Determine a wire area from the physical position and characteristic information of the wire to be temperature measured, and determine an effective temperature measurement area based on the wire area and a preset separation distance.
[0056] In this embodiment, infrared thermal images of the wire to be measured are captured in real time and then spatially transformed according to the imaging angle of the infrared thermal image. Specifically, the temperature measurement system is calibrated, geometric parameters for mounting the thermal imager are determined, and the image is spatially transformed according to the principle of geometric transformation to establish the positional relationship between the pixels in the thermal image and the actual physical space, thereby obtaining the physical location of each pixel in the infrared thermal image. Next, using image processing knowledge, the pixels on the thermal image are traversed and the wire area is determined based on the physical location and characteristic information of the wire to be measured. Based on the wire area and a preset separation distance, an effective temperature measurement area is determined. This dynamic capture of the effective temperature measurement area during the wire temperature measurement process improves the accuracy of temperature measurement.
[0057] Step 403: Obtain wire geometric parameters of the wire to be measured for temperature, and create a wire geometric model of the wire to be measured for temperature in a preset spatial coordinate system based on the spatial coordinate parameters, where the wire geometric parameters are spatial coordinate parameters of the wire to be measured for temperature on the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis of the preset spatial coordinate system.
[0058] Next, the wire geometric parameters of the wire whose temperature is to be measured are obtained. The wire geometric parameters are spatial coordinate parameters on the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis of a preset spatial coordinate system of the wire whose temperature is to be measured. Based on the spatial coordinate parameters, a wire geometric model of the wire whose temperature is to be measured is created in the preset spatial coordinate system (see Figure 5). Once the wire geometric model is created, the effective emissivity can be calculated using the wire geometric model, and the measured temperature can then be corrected using the effective emissivity.
[0059] Step 404: Generate a plurality of target rays to be tracked, and project the target rays to target projection points of a line geometric model, respectively; in the line geometric model, for each of the target rays to be tracked, trace a ray propagation path after the target ray is projected; and determine whether the target ray to be tracked is absorbed by the line geometric model according to the ray propagation path, wherein the line geometric model includes a plurality of target projection points.
[0060] Step 405: Calculate the local effective emissivity of the target projection point based on the number of absorbed traced rays and the total number of traced rays, and obtain the effective emissivity of the wire geometric model based on the local effective emissivities of the multiple target projection points.
[0061] Next, a plurality of tracking target rays are generated, and the tracking target rays are respectively projected onto target projection points of the wire geometric model. In the wire geometric model, for any of the tracking target rays, the ray propagation path after the tracking target ray is projected is traced. According to the ray propagation path, it is determined whether the tracked target ray is absorbed by the wire geometric model. The local effective emissivity of the target projection point is calculated from the number of absorbed tracking target rays and the total number of tracking target rays. The effective emissivity of the wire geometric model is obtained from the local effective emissivities of the plurality of target projection points.
[0062] Step 406: Correct the temperature measurement value of the effective temperature measurement area based on the effective emissivity to obtain a corrected temperature measurement result.
[0063] Next, the temperature measurement value of the effective temperature measurement area is corrected based on the effective emissivity to obtain the corrected temperature measurement result.
[0064] In a specific example, the temperature of a random, complete wire with a wire diameter of 16 mm was measured in a production site using the example of the present application and a scanning temperature measurement device, respectively. The temperature fluctuation measured by the example of the present application was 13°C, while the temperature fluctuation measured by the scanning spot thermometer was as high as 27°C. Furthermore, the standard deviations of both were calculated, and were 7.64°C and 2.80°C, respectively, for the scanning spot thermometer and the method of the example of the present application. Therefore, the example of the present application significantly improves the stability of temperature measurement. Temperature correction improves the accuracy of the wire temperature measurement by 15 to 20°C. The temperature of a random, complete wire with a wire diameter of 16 mm was measured using the method in the embodiment of the present application, and the temperature measurement data was subjected to temperature processing using the processing method of the present application to obtain a temperature distribution curve of the cross section of the wire. From this distribution curve, it was determined that the temperature of the overlapping areas on both sides of the wire was higher than the temperature of the central area of the wire. Therefore, by rationally adjusting the Optiflex device under the roller and adjusting the air volume in each part, the wire could be cooled uniformly.
[0065] By using the technical solution of this embodiment, an infrared thermal image of the wire to be measured for temperature is acquired in real time, the infrared thermal image is spatially transformed according to the shooting angle of the infrared thermal image to determine the wire area, and an effective temperature measurement area is determined based on the wire area and a preset separation distance. The wire geometric parameters of the wire to be measured for temperature are acquired, and a wire geometric model of the wire to be measured for temperature is created in a preset spatial coordinate system based on the spatial coordinate parameters.
