组合式射线无损检测方法及*** 技术领域 Combined ray nondestructive testing method and system

本发明涉及一种组合式射线无损检测方法及***，特別涉及一种采用 γ射线源和 X射线源，以及线阵探测器和面阵探测器，能以多种射线源 -探测器组合方式对工件进行高精度 DR/CT辐射成像检测的组合式射线无损检测方法及***，属于射线无损检测技术领域，可应用于国防、航空航天、工业和科研等领域的精细无损检测。 The invention relates to a combined radiation non-destructive testing method and system, in particular to a gamma ray source and an X ray source, and a line array detector and an area array detector, which can be combined in a plurality of ray source-detector combinations. Combined ray non-destructive testing method and system for high-precision DR/CT radiation imaging detection of workpieces belongs to the field of ray non-destructive testing technology and can be applied to fine non-destructive testing in the fields of national defense, aerospace, industry and scientific research.

背景技术 Background technique

DR ( Digital Radiography , 数字辐射成像）和 CT ( Computed Tomography, 计算机断层成像）技术是医学和工业领域常用的射线无损检测技术。现有的射线无损检测***往往性能单一，主要针对某一类工件或缺陷进行检测，其性能指标如：反差灵敏度、空间分辨率、穿透能力和长期稳定性等，多是单项突出而难于兼顾。 DR (Digital Radiography) and CT (Computed Tomography) are commonly used non-destructive testing techniques in the medical and industrial fields. Existing ray non-destructive testing systems often have a single performance, mainly for detecting certain types of workpieces or defects. Their performance indicators such as contrast sensitivity, spatial resolution, penetration capability and long-term stability are mostly single and difficult to balance. .

根据所使用的射线源不同，射线无损检测***分为高能***和中低能***。高能***通常采用 X射线加速器作为射线源，中低能***通常采用 X光机或放射性同位素作为射线源。对于不同的射线源，由于射线能量不同，强度不同，靶点尺寸不同，输出稳定性不同，造成所适用的检测工件厚度范围、缺陷分辨能力等检测指标也不同。另一方面，用于辐射成像的探测器也有多种，其探测效率、探测灵敏度、像素尺寸、成像速度、抗辐照性和环境适应性等各有不同。而且，探测性能跟入射射线能量也有很大关系，即使同一种探测器，对不同能量段的 Χ/γ射线，其信号响应特性也存在显著差別，对某一能量段的射线不适合，而对另一能量段则可能很理想。然而，现有技术中公开的射线无损检测***存在一个共同的特点，就是通常只使用一种射线源和一种探测器，即：射线源只单独使用 X光机、 X射线加速器或 γ射线源中的一种，探测器只使用面阵探测器和线阵探测器中的一种，多个能量段与高稳定性难于同时获得，不同类型探测器的优势难于充分发挥，缺陷分辨能力受限，难于获得宽能量范围的探测效果，其局限性和不足具体描述如下： Depending on the source of radiation used, the ray nondestructive testing system is divided into high energy systems and medium and low energy systems. High-energy systems typically use X-ray accelerators as ray sources, and low- and medium-energy systems typically use X-ray machines or radioisotopes as ray sources. For different ray sources, the ray energy is different, the intensity is different, the target size is different, and the output stability is different, which results in different detection indexes such as the thickness range of the detected workpiece and the defect resolution capability. On the other hand, there are many types of detectors for radiation imaging, such as detection efficiency, detection sensitivity, pixel size, imaging speed, radiation resistance, and environmental adaptability. Moreover, the detection performance is also closely related to the incident ray energy. Even with the same detector, the signal response characteristics of Χ/γ rays of different energy segments are significantly different, and the radiation of a certain energy segment is not suitable, but Another energy segment may be ideal. However, a common feature of the radiation non-destructive testing system disclosed in the prior art is that only one type of ray source and one type of detector are usually used, that is, the ray source alone uses an X-ray machine, an X-ray illuminator or a γ-ray source. In one of the types, the detector uses only one of the area array detector and the line array detector. It is difficult to obtain multiple energy segments and high stability at the same time. The advantages of different types of detectors are difficult to fully exert, and the defect resolution capability is limited. It is difficult to obtain a wide-energy range detection effect, and its limitations and deficiencies are described as follows:

1、射线能量范围窄，适于检测的对象受到限制一般来讲，射线能量越高，穿透能力越强，但更高的射线能量并不一定带来更高的检测精度。射线能量偏低，会导致穿透能力不足；射线能量过高，穿透能力增强，但是射线衰减过少，会降低成像***的反差灵敏度，影响成像质量。对于不同大小的工件和工件内不同尺寸的缺陷，需要用不同能量的射线检测，或者说，对一定能量的射线，存在一个最佳厚度测量范围。例如， 450kV X光机的最佳检测厚度约为 2.3cm等效铁厚度， Ο)-60 γ射线源的最佳检测厚度约为 4.7cm等效铁厚度， 15MeV X 射线加速器的最佳检测厚度约为 8cm等效铁厚度，等等。使用不同射线源的检测***在其最佳检测厚度附近能获得最高的检测精度，检测效果最好，而偏离这个范围，其检测能力就会下降。因此，采用单个射线源的检测***，受射线能量范围限制，其适于检测的对象范围较窄，缺陷分辨能力有限，这也是工业 CT***往往需要根据检测对象进行定制的重要原因。 1. The ray energy range is narrow, and the object suitable for detection is limited. In general, the higher the ray energy, the stronger the penetration ability, but the higher ray energy does not necessarily lead to higher detection accuracy. Low ray energy will result in insufficient penetrating power; ray energy is too high, and penetration ability is enhanced, but the ray attenuation is too small, which will reduce the contrast sensitivity of the imaging system and affect the imaging quality. For different sizes of workpieces and different sizes of defects in the workpiece, it is necessary to use different energy ray detection, or, for a certain energy ray, there is an optimum thickness measurement range. For example, the optimum detection thickness of a 450kV X-ray machine is about 2.3cm equivalent iron thickness, and the optimum detection thickness of a Ο)-60 γ-ray source is about 4.7cm equivalent iron thickness, and the best detection thickness of a 15MeV X-ray accelerator. Approximately 8cm equivalent iron thickness, and so on. Detection systems using different sources can achieve the highest detection accuracy in the vicinity of their optimum detection thickness, and the detection effect is the best, and the deviation from this range will reduce the detection capability. Therefore, the detection system using a single ray source is limited by the ray energy range, and the range of objects suitable for detection is narrow, and the defect resolution capability is limited. This is also an important reason why industrial CT systems often need to be customized according to the detection object.

2、不能综合利用不同类型射线源的优点最大限度提高检测能力任何一种射线源用于辐射成像都有其优点，也有其不足，具体表现在：（i)X 光机射线源焦点尺寸小，射线强度高，可以实现很高的空间分辨率，但是射线能量较低，能谱是连续谱，存在穿透能力不强和射线束硬化等问题，对于质量厚度较小的工件有很好的检测效果，而对于质量厚度较大、稳定性要求很高，和缺陷的尺寸需要精细定量检测的要求就难于满足；（ii)X射线加速器的射线能量高，强度大，可以穿透较厚的工件，但是靶点大，射线强度及能量的空间分布差异大，前沖性大，且 X 射线输出稳定性较差，能谱也是连续谱，同样存在射线束硬化问题，能检测质量厚度较大的工件，但空间分辨率、检测灵敏度和测量稳定性等都受到限制。另外，由于加速器的 X射线束张角小，要检测较大尺寸的工件，检测***占用的空间就较大，机械结构也很复杂，而且辐射防护要求也很高；（ίϋ)γ射线源，如 Co-60, 其射线强度以固定的半衰期逐渐减弱，在任意时刻都是确定且可计算出的，其强度的空间分布各向同性，其产生的 γ射线为 1.17MeV和 1.33MeV的单能 γ射线，基本不存在射线硬化问题，穿透能力较强，与 4MeV加速器相当，而且特別适合检测工件在较长时期内质量厚度的微小变化，但也存在射线源靶点尺寸较大、射线强度较低的不足。这几种射线源中的任何一种单独使用都有其局限性，如果将它们结合使用，尤其是将例如 Co-60 的 γ射线源与 X光机结合使用，就能弥补各自的不足，使组合式检测***能发挥出最大效能。 2. It is impossible to comprehensively utilize the advantages of different types of radiation sources to maximize the detection capability. Any kind of radiation source has its advantages and disadvantages for radiation imaging. The specific performances are as follows: (i) The X-ray machine source has a small focus size. The radiation intensity is high, and high spatial resolution can be achieved, but the ray energy is low, the energy spectrum is continuous spectrum, the penetration ability is not strong, and the beam hardening is problematic, and the workpiece with small mass thickness is well detected. The effect, but the requirement for fine quantitative detection is difficult to meet the requirements of large thickness, high stability, and the size of the defect; (ii) X-ray accelerator has high ray energy, high strength, and can penetrate thicker workpieces. However, the target is large, the spatial distribution of ray intensity and energy is large, the forward momentum is large, and the X-ray output stability is poor, and the energy spectrum is also a continuous spectrum. The same beam hardening problem can be detected, and the mass thickness can be detected. Workpieces, but spatial resolution, detection sensitivity, and measurement stability are all limited. In addition, since the X-ray beam angle of the accelerator is small, to detect a large-sized workpiece, the space occupied by the detection system is large, the mechanical structure is also complicated, and the radiation protection requirements are also high; (ϋ) γ-ray source, For example, Co-60, whose ray intensity is gradually weakened by a fixed half-life, is determined and calculatable at any time. The spatial distribution of its intensity is isotropic, and the gamma ray produced is 1.17 MeV and 1.33 MeV. γ ray, basically no radiation hardening problem, strong penetrating ability, equivalent to 4MeV accelerator, and especially suitable for detecting small changes in mass thickness of workpieces in a long period of time, but also there are large target sizes of radiation sources, ray intensity Lower deficiencies. The use of any of these sources alone has its limitations, if used in combination, in particular by combining a gamma source such as Co-60 with an X-ray machine. With it, it can make up for their own shortcomings, so that the combined detection system can achieve maximum performance.

3、不能充分发挥各种探测器的优点，最大限度地提高检测能力不同类型探测器具有不同的特点，各有优点也各有局限性，具体表现在：（i)面阵探测器：空间分辨率高，可达 μιη级，成像速度快，但灵敏体厚度仅有 0.2 ~ 0.5mm, 探测效率低，次级电子串扰难于消除，对于低能射线的探测比较合适；（ii)固体线阵探测器：灵敏体厚度可达 cm级，探测效率高，检测灵敏度高，但空间分辨率难于做到 μιη级，需要逐行扫描，成像速度慢，而且易受辐照、环境温湿度等因素影响，长期稳定性较差；（iii)气体线阵探测器：性能稳定，环境适应性强，耐辐照，但探测器单元的尺寸难于做小，空间分辨率受到较大限制。因此，对于不同的射线能量和不同的缺陷，需要用不同类型的探测器才能获得最佳检测效果，单一类型的探测器难于胜任复杂的检测要求。 3, can not give full play to the advantages of various detectors, to maximize the detection capabilities Different types of detectors have different characteristics, each has its own limitations, specific manifestations: (i) area array detector: spatial resolution The rate is high, up to μιη level, the imaging speed is fast, but the thickness of the sensitive body is only 0.2 ~ 0.5mm, the detection efficiency is low, the secondary electronic crosstalk is difficult to eliminate, and the detection of low energy rays is suitable; (ii) the solid line array detector : Sensitive body thickness up to cm level, high detection efficiency, high detection sensitivity, but spatial resolution is difficult to achieve μιη level, need progressive scan, slow imaging speed, and susceptible to radiation, ambient temperature and humidity, etc., long-term Poor stability; (iii) Gas line array detector: stable performance, environmental adaptability, and radiation resistance, but the size of the detector unit is difficult to make small, and the spatial resolution is greatly limited. Therefore, different types of detectors are required for different ray energies and different defects to achieve the best detection results. A single type of detector is difficult to meet complex detection requirements.

4、无法同时满足灵敏度高、穿透能力强和长期稳定性好的检测需求在某些特殊领域，检测对象质量厚度较大（相当于几厘米铁），而检测精度要求又非常高：要分辨出细微的（μιη级）裂缝、脱落、鼓泡等缺陷，能发现较长时期（数月，甚至数年）内发生的 0.1 %的微小质量厚度变化等。这种情况对于空间分辨率、检测灵敏度和长期稳定性等指标的要求都很高，是现有辐射成像检测***难于实现的。发明内容 4. It is impossible to meet the requirements of high sensitivity, strong penetrating ability and long-term stability. In some special fields, the thickness of the object to be inspected is large (equivalent to a few centimeters of iron), and the detection accuracy requirement is very high: Subtle (μιη grade) cracks, shedding, bubbling and other defects can be found in 0.1% of small mass thickness changes occurring over a long period of time (months, even years). This situation is highly demanding for indicators such as spatial resolution, detection sensitivity, and long-term stability, which is difficult to achieve with existing radiation imaging detection systems. Summary of the invention

如图 2所示，气体线阵探测器或固体线阵探测器为圓弧形结构，由多个探测器单元 21构成，探测器单元 21面向射线源的端面（即射线入射窗）沿第一圓弧线 24均匀紧密排列，该第一圓弧线 24以射线源源心 (即 X射线源的靶心或 γ射线源的放射源）为圓心，以射线入射窗到射线源源心的距离为半径。探测器单元 21的高度和宽度就是指该射线入射窗的高度和宽度，该宽度与高度的乘积即该线阵探测器的像素值。探测器单元 21的数量应使其射线入射窗构成的第一圓弧线 24的长度与射线源源心共同形成的扇形区能覆盖被检测工件的每个需检测的截面，且最好是 8的整数倍。每个探测器单元 21的射线入射窗沿圓弧方向的宽度，应满足本发明检测***的检测分辨率要求。每个探测器单元 21长度方向（即平行于射线的方向）的中心线均指向射线源源心。线阵探测器的后准直器 3也是圓弧形结构，其第二圓弧线 25亦以射线源源心为圓心，且其半径略小于第一圓弧线 24的半径。后准直器 3由沿第二圓弧线 25均匀平行排列的、由长方形钨合金薄片制成的隔离片 23 , 以及用于精确固定隔离片 23、由紫铜或铅合金或钨合金制成的上下两块平行夹板（附图 2中未示出）构成。隔离片 23与夹板之间形成多个准直缝 22, 将进入探测器之前的射线进一步准直成多个小射线束。准直缝 22的高度为两块夹板之间的距离，宽度为相邻两片隔离片 23之间的距离。准直缝 22的高度等于或略大于探测器单元 21的高度，宽度为探测器单元 21宽度的 1/2、 1/3 或 1/4,数量与探测器单元 21的数量相同。每一片隔离片 23长度方向（即平行于射线的方向）的延长线都通过射线源源心，使得每一个准直缝 22 的中心线也都通过射线源源心，从而提高透射射线通过准直缝后进入探测器单元的效率，并有效阻隔散射射线，减小相邻探测器单元 21之间的信号串扰。在进行线阵探测器 DR成像时，后准直器 3可整体沿第二圓弧线 25双方向蠕动，每蠕动一次就获取一组投影数据，每次蠕动的距离为准直缝 22的宽度，从而使 DR成像的空间分辨率达到探测器单元 21 宽度值的 1/2、 1/3或 1/4, 可进一步提高本发明检测***的检测分辨率。 As shown in FIG. 2, the gas line array detector or the solid line array detector has a circular arc structure and is composed of a plurality of detector units 21, and the detector unit 21 faces the end face of the radiation source (ie, the ray entrance window) along the first The circular arc lines 24 are evenly arranged closely. The first circular arc line 24 is centered on the source of the radiation source (ie, the target of the X-ray source or the source of the gamma ray source), and the distance from the ray entrance window to the source of the ray source is a radius. The height and width of the detector unit 21 refer to the ray entrance window. The height and width, the product of the width and height is the pixel value of the line detector. The number of detector units 21 is such that the length of the first circular arc line 24 formed by the ray entrance window and the sector formed by the source of the ray source can cover each section to be detected of the workpiece to be inspected, and preferably 8 Integer multiple. The width of the ray entrance window of each detector unit 21 in the direction of the arc should meet the detection resolution requirements of the detection system of the present invention. The center line of the length direction of each detector unit 21 (i.e., parallel to the direction of the ray) is directed to the source of the source. The rear collimator 3 of the line array detector is also a circular arc-shaped structure, and the second circular arc line 25 is also centered on the source of the ray source, and its radius is slightly smaller than the radius of the first circular arc line 24. The rear collimator 3 is a spacer 23 made of a rectangular tungsten alloy sheet uniformly arranged in parallel along the second circular arc line 25, and is used for accurately fixing the spacer 23, made of copper or a lead alloy or a tungsten alloy. Two parallel plywoods (not shown in Fig. 2) are constructed. A plurality of collimating slits 22 are formed between the spacer 23 and the splint to further collimate the rays before entering the detector into a plurality of small beams. The height of the collimating slit 22 is the distance between the two splints, and the width is the distance between the adjacent two sheets of the separator 23. The height of the collimating slit 22 is equal to or slightly larger than the height of the detector unit 21, and the width is 1/2, 1/3 or 1/4 of the width of the detector unit 21, and the number is the same as the number of the detector units 21. An extension of each of the spacers 23 in the longitudinal direction (i.e., parallel to the direction of the rays) passes through the source of the source such that the centerline of each of the collimating slits 22 also passes through the source of the source, thereby increasing the transmission of the transmitted rays through the collimating slits. The efficiency of entering the detector unit, and effectively blocking scattered rays, reduces signal crosstalk between adjacent detector units 21. When the line array detector DR is imaged, the rear collimator 3 can wriggle in both directions along the second circular arc line 25, and a set of projection data is acquired every time the peristalsis is performed, and the distance per peristaltic motion is the width of the collimating slit 22. Thus, the spatial resolution of the DR imaging is 1/2, 1/3 or 1/4 of the width of the detector unit 21, which further improves the detection resolution of the detection system of the present invention.

线阵探测器 CT成像：将选定射线源和线阵探测器升降到设定位置，使得射线源中心和线阵探测器中心位于同一水平面（检测面），工件转台 15升降到设定位置，使得工件的待检部位位于检测平面；将前准直器移位到狭缝位置，打开射线源，工件转台 15以设定转速转动 360度，每转动一个恒定角度就获取一组投影数据，全部数据获取完成后经过数据处理和图像重建，获得被测工件待检测部位的 CT断层图像。 Line Array CT Imaging: Lift the selected source and line detector to the set position so that the center of the source and the center of the line detector are at the same horizontal plane (detection surface), and the workpiece turret 15 is raised to the set position. The part to be inspected of the workpiece is located on the detection plane; the front collimator is displaced to the slit position, the radiation source is turned on, the workpiece turntable 15 is rotated 360 degrees at the set rotation speed, and a set of projection data is acquired every time a constant angle is rotated, all After the data acquisition is completed, data processing and image reconstruction are performed to obtain a CT tomographic image of the detected part of the workpiece to be tested.
