Quantitative Research on Signal of Pipeline Coating Defect Detection Based on HHT
Coating is a very important way to ensure the integrity of the pipeline. However, due to environmental or external factors, the coating will has some defects such as peeling defects, holes and so on. This paper is concentrated on axial stripping defects and holes of buried pipeline coated with anti-corrosion coating, using ultrasonic guided wave detection technology to obtain the coating detection signal to do the study of quantification, it provides a feasible method to study the level quantitative description of the anticorrosive layer peeling defects.Doing time-frequency analysis to the operating status of the coating, we will have a conclusion that when the coating has peeling defects, the waveform of the detection signal will has a nonlinear characteristic signal. According to the analysis of time-frequency distribution, we can find out that when the signal has nonlinear characteristic signal, the time-frequency distribution will have a "concave" type frequency distribution, it is the basis to judge the junction of the coating peeling defects. According to the judgment, and obtain the relative length of the coating stripping defect, it will finally obtain the degree of damage caused by peeling defects.Therefore, this paper is a post-treatment method for pipeline coating detection, providing feasible and effective signal processing methods and quantitative research methods for the engineering application of the detection technology of non-linear ultrasonic pipeline coating peeling defects.
Probing the Anti-Corrosion Behavior of X65 Steel Underwater FSW Joint in Simulated Seawater
To detect the corrosion resistance of a friction stud welding (FSW) joint in simulated seawater (a 3.5 wt% NaCl solution), the pulse electrochemical deposition method was used for electroplating Ni coating with different duty ratios (50%, 80%, and 100%) on the surface of FSW joint. The microstructure and surface structure of the coating were observed by micro-spectroscopy and other characterization methods. The corrosion behavior of the coating was analyzed by means of macroscopic electrochemical testing. The local corrosion law of joint surface and coating surface defects were innovatively explored by using micro-zone electrochemical scanning system. The coating characterization results showed that, as the duty ratio continues to increase, the coating surface becomes denser and smoother, and the corrosion products such as Fe2O3, Fe3O4, and FeOOH are generated. The results of macroscopic electrochemical experiment indicated that the coating with 100% duty ratio has the lowest corrosion current density and the maximum polarization resistance. The scanning vibrating electrode technique results showed that the corrosion current density in the defect area is higher than that in the coating area, and the maximum corrosion current density decreases with the increase of duty ratio. The localized electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results indicated that the localized impedance at the welded zone was the largest, and with the increase of the pulse duty ratio, the impedance diffusion in the defect area was decreasing.
Finite Difference Modeling on the Temperature Field of Substrate in Friction Surfacing
Friction surfacing is an advanced process of great potential, especially in the field of repair and reclamation of worn and damaged components. As a kind of thermal processing technology, the temperature profile and changes of the substrate in friction surfacing are important factors to get coatings of high quality. In this paper, the temperature field of the substrate during the process is simulated by finite difference method. The results are consistent with experiments, reappearing the temperature change of the substrate during friction surfacing, allowing further study on figuration and quality of coatings.
