Description
A pressure-based cavitation detection device and method for pure water hydraulic system Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pure water hydraulic systems, and in particular to a pressure-based cavitation detection device and method for pure water hydraulic systems. Background Art
[0002] Hydraulic transmission uses liquid as the working medium to transfer, exchange, and control energy. Hydraulic and pneumatic transmission, also known as fluid transmission, are emerging technologies developed based on the principle of hydrostatic pressure transmission proposed by Pascal in the 17th century. It is widely used in engineering machinery, construction machinery, agricultural machinery, metallurgical machinery, mining machinery, and space launches. The level of fluid transmission technology has become an important indicator of industrial development.
[0003] Since pure water has many advantages, such as easy access, low price, no pollution, no combustion, small compression coefficient, and can replace mineral oil in various fields, pure water hydraulic transmission is attracting more and more attention.
[0004] However, the air separation pressure of pure water is higher than that of traditional mineral oil, and under the same conditions, it contains more air than traditional mineral oil. This makes the pure water hydraulic system more prone to cavitation than the traditional hydraulic oil hydraulic system.
[0005] Cavitation is the deformation and material stripping phenomenon that occurs on the surface of an object in liquid motion after being impacted by cavitation, also known as erosion or cavitation. During the cavitation process, bubbles are rapidly generated, expanded, and collapsed, forming shock waves or high-speed microjets in the liquid. After the metal material is impacted, the surface crystal structure is distorted, chemical instability occurs, and adjacent grains have different electric potentials, thereby accelerating the electrochemical corrosion process. The mechanical properties of the material in the eroded area deteriorate significantly, resulting in a sharp increase in the amount of cavitation. In the design of pure water hydraulic systems, model tests must be conducted in advance and measures must be taken to avoid cavitation as much as possible. In order to avoid cavitation, it is necessary to first detect whether cavitation has occurred and the extent of cavitation. Therefore, a pressure-based pure water hydraulic system cavitation detection device and method are urgently needed to solve the above problems.

[0038] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0039] 1-3 , the present invention provides a pressure-based pure water hydraulic system cavitation detection device, comprising:
[0040] chamber components;
[0041] A flow guide nozzle 4 is disposed in the chamber component and is connected to the pure water hydraulic system. The inner diameter of the flow guide nozzle 4 gradually increases along the inflow direction of the liquid medium, so that the flow velocity of the liquid medium is reduced after it is guided into the flow guide nozzle 4.
[0042] A detection assembly 7 is disposed within the chamber member and includes a housing 7.1. The end of the housing 7.1 facing the drainage nozzle 4 is open, and an elastic cover sheet 7.2 is disposed within the open end. An electrode 7.5 is disposed within the housing 7.1. A diaphragm 7.4 is disposed on either side of the electrode 7.5. The electrode 7.5 is in close contact with the elastic cover sheet 7.2 via one of the diaphragms 7.4.
[0043] The liquid medium is ejected from the drainage nozzle 4 and impacts the elastic cover 7.2, so that the elastic cover 7.2 vibrates, thereby changing the potential on both sides of the electrode 7.5 and inputting the output electrical signal to the terminal.
[0044] The drainage slope of the drainage nozzle 4 provided in the present invention can promote the rupture of cavitation bubbles, so that the detection component 7 can more sensitively detect the vibration caused by the rupture of cavitation bubbles, thereby realizing cavitation detection of the pure water hydraulic system.
[0045] Further optimization scheme, the chamber components include:
[0046] Cylinder 1;
[0047] The upper cylinder cover 2 and the lower cylinder cover 3 are fixed to the two ends of the cylinder body 1 by screws 8 respectively;
[0048] The flow-inducing nozzle 4 is fixedly connected to the lower cylinder cover 3 , and the outer shell 7 . 1 is fixedly connected to the upper cylinder cover 2 .
[0049] The main structure of the cylinder body 1 is a cylindrical cylinder body 1, with six threaded holes evenly distributed on the upper and lower parts respectively, which are used to fix the upper cylinder cover 2 and the lower cylinder cover 3 by screws 8. A cylindrical hole is opened in the center of the upper cylinder cover 2 to connect the detection component 7. The upper part of the detection component 7 is opened with a cylindrical thread, which is tightly connected to the upper cylinder cover 2 through the connecting nut 6. A cylindrical hole is opened in the center of the lower cylinder cover 3 to connect the drainage nozzle 4. The lower part of the drainage nozzle 4 is opened with a cylindrical thread, which is tightly connected to the lower cylinder cover 3 through the connecting nut 6. A small circular hole is opened on the side of the center of the lower cylinder cover 3 to connect the thin tube 5, and the circular hole at the lower opening of the drainage nozzle 4 is also used to connect the thin tube 5.
[0050] According to a further optimized solution, the drainage nozzle 4 and the housing 7.1 are fixed to the lower cylinder head 3 and the upper cylinder head 2 respectively through nuts 6.
[0051] To further optimize the solution, thin tubes 5 are provided on the lower cylinder cover 3 and the drainage nozzle 4 respectively;
[0052] The thin tube 5 connected to the flow nozzle 4 is used to introduce the liquid medium into the flow nozzle 4; the thin tube 5 connected to the lower cylinder cover 3 is used to lead the liquid medium out of the chamber component.
[0053] According to a further optimized solution, a circular insulating sleeve 7.3 is fixed to the inner wall of the housing 7.1, and the electrode 7.5 is arranged in the circular insulating sleeve 7.3.
[0054] Before using this detection device, first connect it to the pure water hydraulic system through the capillary tube 5 to introduce liquid medium. The liquid medium flows into the drainage nozzle 4 through the capillary tube 5 and enters the cylinder body 1. The inclination of the drainage nozzle 4 promotes the rupture of cavitation bubbles, thereby causing the elastic cover 7.2 at the bottom of the detection component 7 to vibrate, driving the diaphragm 7.4 in the detection component 7 to vibrate, causing the electric potential on both sides of the electrode 7.5 to change. By detecting the electrical signal transmitted from the upper part of its shell 7.1, the liquid medium flows to the elastic cover 7.2, passes through the inner wall of the cylinder body 1 downward, and flows out from the capillary tube 5 connected to the circular hole on the center side of the lower cylinder cover 3.
[0055] A pressure-based cavitation detection method for a pure water hydraulic system comprises the following steps:
[0056] Connect the hydraulic system to the flow nozzle 4 so that the liquid medium flows into the chamber component through the flow nozzle 4;
[0057] The liquid medium slows down when passing through the drainage nozzle 4, and the pressure increases, accelerating the rupture, causing pressure fluctuations at the bottom of the detection component 7;
[0058] The pressure fluctuation is converted into a corresponding electrical signal by the detection component 7;
[0059] An electrical signal is input to the terminal and it is determined whether cavitation occurs.
[0060] To further optimize the solution, the electrical signal is the collected pressure value and is a continuous electrical signal. The average pressure value within three seconds is taken as n, and the maximum pressure value within three seconds is taken as m. The electrical signal is input to the terminal and the judgment method for determining whether cavitation occurs is as follows:
[0061] When n is less than 10 MPa and m is greater than 2n, cavitation occurs, otherwise no cavitation occurs;
[0062] When n is greater than 10 MPa and less than 20 MPa, and m is greater than 1.5n, cavitation occurs, otherwise no cavitation occurs;
[0063] When n is greater than 20 MPa and less than 30 MPa, and m is greater than 1.3n, cavitation occurs, otherwise no cavitation occurs;
[0064] When n is greater than 30 MPa and m is greater than 1.1 n, cavitation occurs, otherwise no cavitation occurs.
