In the embodiment, a sample set is constructed by simulating the defect flux leakage signals under different defect sizes through finite element software modeling. The sample data is: the size of the defect and the corresponding triaxial leakage flux signal. The dimensions of the defect include the length, width, and depth of the defect. The three-axis leakage signal of the defect refers to: the axial magnetic leakage signal is an axial component, the radial magnetic leakage signal is a radial component, and the circumferential magnetic leakage signal is a circumferential component; in this embodiment, the circumferential component is constructed by selecting a value of a radial component on a circumferential path of the pipeline, and the specific selection method is as follows: the peak position of the radial component on the axial path is determined, and the value of the radial component on the circumferential path where the peak position is located is selected as the value of the circumferential component.
In this embodiment, after the length, width, and depth of the defect are quantitatively analyzed according to the sample set, a specific quantitative manner of the length, width, and depth of the defect is obtained, and the quantitative analysis is specifically as follows:
(1) quantitative analysis of defect length:
according to the sample set, the axial component peak-valley distance, the axial component differential signal peak-valley distance and the radial component peak-valley distance are all monotonically increased along with the increase of the defect length, namely a linear relation is formed; the radial component peak-to-valley is only an approximate monotone decrease; the axial component peak-to-valley is non-linear and decreases with increasing defect length.
Taking the defect width as 10mm and the depth as 7mm as an example, as shown in fig. 5, axial component differential signals of different defect lengths are obtained by finite element simulation, and the axial component differential signals are axial component derivatives along the axial direction; in this embodiment, finite element simulations were used to obtain defect lengths of 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18mm, respectivelyThe axial component of the signal. According to the simulation result, the peak-valley spacing DS of the differential signals of the axial components of the defects with different lengths xp-p Proportional to the defect length, as shown in fig. 6.
In the three signal characteristic quantities of the axial component peak-valley distance, the axial component differential signal peak-valley distance and the radial component peak-valley distance, the defect length is characterized to be most stable by using the axial component differential signal peak-valley distance, the axial component differential signal peak-valley distance is not influenced by factors such as defect width, defect depth, sensor lift-off value and the like, namely when the interference quantity changes, the axial component differential signal peak-valley distance cannot be changed along with the change of the defect length, the axial component differential signal peak-valley distance only changes along with the change of the defect length, and the axial component differential signal peak-valley distance fluctuation precision error is verified in finite element simulation to be within 10%. To verify the conclusion, when the lifting distances are respectively set to be 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5mm, the defect widths are respectively 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14mm, and the defect depths are respectively 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12mm, magnetic flux leakage detection is performed to obtain the peak-valley distances of the axial component differential signals when the defect size and the lifting distance are respectively changed, wherein one defect length is a group and is divided into 5 groups, the defect lengths are respectively 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18mm, the peak-valley distances of the axial component differential signals and the corresponding defect widths, defect depths and lifting distances are obtained, the obtained data are generated into a broken line graph, as shown in fig. 7, 8 and 9, and the fluctuation percentage of each broken line is calculated to verify that the fluctuation precision errors of the peak-valley distances of the axial component differential signals are all within 10%. Secondly, the peak-to-valley distance of the axial component and the peak-to-valley distance of the radial component are relatively stable, and although the two signal characteristic quantities are not influenced by the defect width and the defect depth, the two signal characteristic quantities are influenced by the fluctuation of the lift-off value of the sensor. As the lift-off value increases, the axial component peak-to-valley spacing decreases and then becomes a single peak, while the radial component peak-to-valley spacing increases.
In summary, the axial component differential signal peak-to-valley spacing DS is selected xp-p As a quantization parameter for the defect length L, the peak-to-valley distance DS of the differential signal of the axial component in the sample set xp-p Linear fitting is carried out on the defect length L to obtain the defect length quantityThe formula is shown as follows:
L=a 1 *DS xp-p +b 1
wherein, a 1 Is a length scale factor, b 1 As a length correction factor, a 1 、b 1 The device is a fixed value under general conditions, and can be adjusted according to specific conditions such as different working environments, pipes, excitation intensity, detector attributes and the like.
(2) Quantitative analysis of defect width:
when the magnetic leakage detector is excited axially, the sensors for detecting the magnetic leakage signals are arranged in the circumferential direction, the circumferential distance of the magnetic leakage signals detected by the sensors is approximately equal to the width of the defect, and the number of the sensors subjected to the defect excitation signals is close to the direct proportional relation with the width of the defect.
And extracting the circumferential component, namely determining the maximum position of the radial component on the axial path, namely the peak position, and then extracting the radial component on the circumferential path where the peak position is positioned as the circumferential component.
The circumferential components with different defect widths are obtained through finite element simulation, as shown in fig. 10, according to the simulation result, the peak-to-valley median spacing S of the circumferential components with different widths is known y-50% Proportional to the defect width, as shown in fig. 11.
As can be known from finite element simulation analysis, the peak-to-valley value of the axial component and the peak-to-valley value of the radial component are monotonically increased along with the increase of the defect width, but the two signal characteristic quantities are influenced by other factors such as the change of the defect depth, the fluctuation of the lift-off value and the like. Only the signal characteristic quantity of the circumferential component peak-valley median distance can be called as a stable quantity, does not change along with the change of the defect depth and the lifting distance, and is verified in finite element simulation, and the fluctuation precision error is within 10 percent. It should be emphasized that the characteristic parameters such as the peak-to-valley distance of the axial component, the peak-to-valley distance of the radial component, the peak-to-valley distance of the differential signal of the axial component, etc. are kept unchanged when the defect width is changed, corresponding to the determination of the quantization parameter of the defect length.
Circumferential component peak-to-valley median spacing S in verifying quantified defect width y-50% Setting the lifting distance to be 1, 2, 3 and 4mm respectively, setting the value range of the defect depth to be 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12mm respectively, carrying out magnetic flux leakage detection to obtain the circumferential component when the defect depth and the lifting distance change respectively, wherein one defect width is a group and is divided into 5 groups, the defect widths are 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14mm respectively, and obtaining the peak-to-valley median spacing S of the circumferential component y-50% And corresponding defect depth and lifting distance, generating a line graph from the obtained data, and verifying the median space S between the peaks and valleys of the circumferential component by calculating the fluctuation percentage of each line graph as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13 y-50% The fluctuation precision errors of the pressure sensor are all within 10 percent.
In summary, the median circumferential component peak-to-valley spacing S is selected y-50% As a quantization parameter of the defect width W, the peak-to-valley median spacing S of the circumferential components in the sample set y-50% And performing linear fitting on the defect width W to obtain a defect width quantization formula:
W=a 2 *S y-50% +b 2
wherein, a 2 Is the width proportionality coefficient, b 2 Is a width correction factor; a is 2 、b 2 The device is a fixed value under general conditions, and can be adjusted according to specific conditions such as different working environments, pipes, excitation intensity, detector attributes and the like.
(3) Quantitative analysis of defect depth
According to simulation result analysis, the radial component peak-valley value and the axial component peak-valley value are in good direct proportional linear relation with the defect depth, increase along with the increase of the defect depth, and are suitable for being used as signal characteristic quantity for quantifying the defect depth. For example, the radial components of different defect depths are obtained by finite element simulation, as shown in fig. 14, and the peak-to-valley values B of the radial components of different depths are known from the simulation results zp-p Proportional to the defect width, as shown in fig. 15.
Although the two signal feature quantities, i.e., the radial component peak-to-valley value and the axial component peak-to-valley value, are suitable as signal feature quantities for quantifying the depth of a defect, they are still unstable signal feature quantities due to the influence of the change in the size of the defect and the fluctuation in the lift-off value. However, according to the above quantitative analysis of the defect length and width, the defect length can be determined by the peak-to-valley distance of the axial component differential signal, the defect width size can be determined by the median distance between the peaks and valleys of the circumferential component, and the defect depth can be quantified by taking the peak-to-valley value of the radial component as a quantification parameter.
The radial component peak-valley value and the corresponding defect depth are subjected to linear fitting, the linear fitting effect of the radial component peak-valley value and the defect depth under defect samples of different sizes is shown in fig. 16, the fitting straight line can represent the defect depth in a corresponding range, and the following relational expression is satisfied:
D=a*B zp-p +b
wherein, B zp-p And a and b are defect depth fitting parameters, namely the difference between the peak and the trough of the radial component, and are variables, when the length and the width of the defect change, the corresponding a and b also change, and the a and b respectively represent a proportionality coefficient and a correction coefficient of the defect depth.
Therefore, the mapping relation between the length and the width of the defect and the defect depth fitting parameters a and b can be obtained by establishing a BP neural network model.
In this embodiment, 200 sets of defects with different lengths and widths are designed, the defect depths are respectively 4mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm, the three are combined to total 1000 defects, and the radial component peak-to-valley value B of the 200 sets of defects with different lengths and widths is calculated zp-p Fitting with the defect depth D to obtain 200 groups of corresponding defect depth fitting parameters a and b, namely obtaining 200 groups of neural network sample data, and constructing a neural network sample set.
And training sample data by adopting a GA (genetic algorithm) depth optimization BP (back propagation) neural network method by taking the length and the width of the known defect as the input of the neural network and the defect depth fitting parameters a and b as the output.
