Description

ULTRASONIC PHASED ARRAY FLAW DETECTOR-BASED GATE DETECTION
APPARATUS AND DETECTION METHOD
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of gate detection technology, in particular, ultrasonic phased array flaw detector-based gate detection apparatus and a detection method.
Background
Gate leakage is a relatively common phenomenon in hydraulic structures. Leakage occurs in almost all gates, ranging from water gates for large reservoirs and rivers to sluice gates for small reservoirs and culverts. As a result, it is generally believed that "all gates leak", and thus people used to the gate leakage without paying sufficient attention. However, the damages and losses caused by gate leakage are far greater than most people realize, and even threaten the safety of hydraulic structures and flood control.
At present, the detection of gate leakage is still implemented by the traditional method, which combines patrol inspection with gate appearance inspection. By this method, the cause of gate leakage can basically be found, but it still has many drawbacks. For example, leakage in a water stop device located underwater is difficult to be detected, let alone the seriousness and the specific position of the leakage. And when the water leakage is found by inspectors, it is usually the case that water leakage is very serious, the water stop device is unable to stop water due to damage and have to be replaced. As a result, an extremely negative impact would be brought to the normal operation of the gate. Moreover, water leakage in a ship lock would affect the filling and discharging time of the lock chamber, prolongs the navigation time, and reduces the navigation efficiency. When the water leakage is serious and needs repair, the navigation has to be suspended for major repairs, which would affect the normal navigation and cause great economic losses.
For the problems above, a variety of detection apparatuses, for example, radiographic flaw detection and magnetic particle flaw detection, are provided. But radiographic flaw detection may cause harm to the human body while magnetic particle flaw detection and ultrasonic flaw detection are inefficient and produce pollution. In addition, the existing detection apparatuses have only one detection probe and are therefore unable to achieve high detection efficiency or accuracy.
