A method of analyzing 304 stainless steel and its parts for maximum temperature experienced

This invention provides a method for analyzing the highest temperature experienced by 304 stainless steel and its components. When 304 stainless steel and its components operate in an air atmosphere and high-temperature environment, their surface undergoes high-temperature oxidation, producing an extremely thin and dense colorless and transparent oxide film that exhibits interference colors. The color of these interference colors is related to the thickness of the oxide film. After a certain period of high-temperature oxidation, the thickness of the oxide film produced by the 304 stainless steel and its components is related to the highest temperature experienced. The L* and a* values ​​of the surface color of the 304 stainless steel and its components are measured using a spectrophotometer. These values ​​are then substituted into the formula provided in this invention to calculate the highest temperature experienced by the 304 stainless steel and its components. The advantages of this method are: no prior test preparation is required; no observation is needed while the 304 stainless steel and its components are in operation; and it is non-contact, thus not damaging the surface of the test object.

A method for determining image color quality in industrial visual inspection

The present invention discloses a method for determining the color quality of images for visual inspection in industrial environments. The method divides the detection field of view of an imaging acquisition lens into multiple areas, uses a 24-color standard color card as a reference calibration sample, places the samples in the different divided areas in sequence, and acquires corresponding true color images. The grayscale values ​​of the true color image of each area and the grayscale color blocks on the standard color card are calculated, and by analyzing the correlation between the two, it is determined whether the image acquisition effect meets the color card standard in the grayscale space. Then, the RGB values ​​of the interference colors of the detection object in the standard color card and the true color image are cross-judged. After verification, the coefficient of variation of the RGB values ​​of the same color block in the true color image in different areas is calculated, and this coefficient of variation is used to determine whether different areas have an impact on the color quality of image acquisition. The method is simple, effective, and has a fast detection speed, and has broad application prospects.
