Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of oil sensors, and relates to an oil sensor and a full-flow online oil characteristic monitoring method.
Background
The mechanical lubrication system is intended to lubricate and cool the relatively moving parts in the mechanical system, ensuring a stable operation of the system. However, abrasive particles generated by friction and abrasion may cause malfunction of the apparatus after a long period of operation. Therefore, the wear state of the mechanical equipment can be found in time by monitoring the abrasive particles in the lubricating oil loop on line in real time, and faults are prevented.
Component materials in current mechanical systems are increasingly diversified, and new nonmetallic materials such as ceramics are increasingly widely used. Unfortunately, conventional electromagnetic induction sensors have limitations in monitoring these nonmetallic materials, for example, the wind power generation online oil analysis device based on magnetic permeability disclosed in patent CN201837574U can monitor ferromagnetic abrasive particles, but cannot monitor nonmetallic materials such as ceramics. Moreover, existing oil sensors are also mostly only monitored for a specific feature in the oil, such as metal abrasive particles or water content. These prior art sensors have limited their range of application to some extent due to the single nature of the function.
In order to overcome these limitations, it is important to develop an oil sensor that can simultaneously monitor oil characteristics such as oil abrasive particle characteristics and water content.

The accuracy of acquiring the abrasive particle characteristics is improved by acquiring the change value of the oil temperature;
the abrasive particle characteristics include an abrasive particle equivalent diameter value, abrasive particle material type, and the like; the method for obtaining the equivalent diameter value of the abrasive particles in the prior art comprises the following general steps: (a) Introducing oil with known abrasive particle equivalent diameters into the electrostatic induction sensor to obtain a voltage value of a voltage signal f, and repeating the steps to obtain the voltage values of the voltage signals f corresponding to different abrasive particle equivalent diameters; (b) Introducing oil with unknown equivalent abrasive particle diameter into the electrostatic induction sensor to obtain a voltage value of a voltage signal f, and comparing the voltage value with the voltage value of the voltage signal f obtained in the step (a), wherein the equivalent abrasive particle diameter corresponding to the voltage value of the voltage signal f which is the most similar to the voltage value of the voltage signal f is the equivalent abrasive particle diameter of the oil; the prior art method for obtaining the abrasive particle material type comprises the following general steps: (a) Introducing oil with known abrasive particle material types into the electrostatic induction sensor to obtain waveforms of voltage signals f, and repeating the steps to obtain waveforms of the voltage signals f corresponding to different abrasive particle material types; (b) And (c) introducing oil liquid with unknown abrasive particle material types into the electrostatic induction sensor to obtain waveforms of voltage signals f, comparing the waveforms with the waveforms of the voltage signals f obtained in the step (a), and obtaining the abrasive particle material type corresponding to the waveform of the voltage signal f which is the most similar to the waveform of the voltage signal f, namely the abrasive particle material type of the oil liquid.
However, the change of the oil temperature can have a certain influence on the monitoring precision of the electrostatic induction sensor: the working principle of the electrostatic induction sensor relates to charge distribution of the surface of an object, and temperature change can influence the charge distribution condition of the surface of the object, so that the sensitivity and the stability of the sensor are influenced; temperature variations can also affect the electrical characteristics of the object, such as conductivity and permittivity, which can affect the charge exchange between the electrostatic induction sensor and the object being measured, and thus the accuracy of the sensor monitoring.

The prior art discloses a plurality of temperature measuring methods, and most typically, various temperature sensors are used for directly measuring temperature, and the change value of the oil temperature is directly converted into voltage change for display analysis. However, the electrostatic induction sensor is small in size and is not suitable for adding more temperature sensors only for temperature measurement, and the problem that the change value of the oil temperature of the electrostatic induction sensor with small size is difficult to measure in the prior art is solved by coupling the electrostatic induction sensor with the fringe electric field sensor.
The full-flow online oil characteristic monitoring method comprises the following steps of: firstly, obtaining a change value A of a dielectric constant caused by moisture and abrasive particles flowing through an electrode before and after oil enters an insulating tube according to a voltage signal e, obtaining a change value B of the dielectric constant caused by the abrasive particles flowing through the electrode before and after the oil enters the insulating tube according to the voltage signal f, subtracting the change value B of the dielectric constant from the change value A of the dielectric constant to obtain a change value C of the dielectric constant caused by moisture before and after the oil enters the insulating tube, and finally obtaining the water content of the oil according to the change value C of the dielectric constant through searching data (documents Zhang Yong, sun Zhenyu, xue Chengxiong, and the like).
The current on-line monitoring method of the water content of the oil mainly comprises a microwave method, a ray method and a dielectric constant method.
The microwave method is a method for distinguishing moisture by applying electromagnetic waves in lubricating oil liquid, and because water belongs to a conductive medium, induced current can be generated in an electromagnetic wave environment, and the actual moisture content can be calculated in real time by a computer as long as the induced current under different moisture contents is measured;
The principle of the ray method is that the attenuation degree is different when gamma rays pass through lubricating oil and water, in theory, the gamma rays can produce attenuation of different degrees when passing through oil with different water contents, and the water content of the lubricating oil can be calculated by analyzing and calibrating the gamma rays received by the ray method;
The dielectric constant method applied to the capacitive sensor is the most widely used method for monitoring moisture on line, and is realized according to the principle that the change of the dielectric constant of a measured object causes the change of a capacitance value, namely, different water contents correspond to different dielectric constants, and different dielectric constants correspond to different capacitance values, so that the water content can be deduced according to the measured capacitance value.
The water content online monitoring method is a method applied by combining the condition of the composite sensor based on the water content detection principle of the existing capacitance sensor, and the change value of the dielectric constant of the medium obtained by the fringe field sensor is mainly caused by three factors: the moisture existing in the oil, the abrasive particles flowing through the electrode and the temperature change of the oil have been analyzed, the influence of the temperature change of the oil on the dielectric constant of the medium can be analyzed, only the factors of the abrasive particles and the moisture of the oil can be considered, the abrasive particles are monitored by using an electrostatic induction principle through an electrostatic induction sensor, the influence of the abrasive particles flowing through the electrode on the dielectric constant is eliminated, and the monitoring of the water content in the oil is realized.
The mechanism of the invention is as follows:
the oil sensor is equivalent to coupling an electrostatic induction sensor with a fringe field sensor;
As shown in fig. 3, the electrostatic induction sensor is composed of abrasive particles (exciting charges) flowing through the electrode and a receiving electrode plate (left annular electrostatic induction electrode and right annular electrostatic induction electrode), when the abrasive particles flow through the receiving electrode plate, charges in the receiving electrode plate are redistributed due to interaction between the charges, heterogeneous charges are attracted to one side close to the abrasive particles, and homogeneous charges are repelled to the other side far from the abrasive particles, so that certain induction charges (electrostatic induction signals) are generated on the surface of the receiving electrode plate;
as shown in fig. 2, the fringe field sensor is composed of an excitation electrode plate (arc electrode) and a receiving electrode plate (left annular electrostatic induction electrode and right annular electrostatic induction electrode) to which an initial excitation voltage is applied, and is analogous to the principle that a conventional capacitive sensor generates an electric field between upper and lower opposite electrode plates, the fringe field sensor generates an electrostatic field between the excitation electrode plate and the receiving electrode plate, the distribution of electric lines of force is radial, and meanwhile, analogous to the conventional capacitive sensor, the fringe field sensor generates a certain induction charge (fringe capacitance signal) on the surface of the receiving electrode plate;
the coupling means that the fringe electric field effect and the electrostatic induction effect are coupled together, the left annular electrostatic induction electrode and the right annular electrostatic induction electrode are used as components of the electrostatic induction sensor and the fringe electric field sensor, and signals output by the left annular electrostatic induction electrode and the right annular electrostatic induction electrode comprise fringe capacitance signals and electrostatic induction signals;
The coupling is that on the basis of utilizing the electrostatic induction sensor to obtain the abrasive particle characteristics, the fringe electric field sensor can be utilized to obtain the change value and the water content of the oil temperature at the same time, so that the synchronous acquisition of multidimensional data is realized, further, the influence of the oil temperature change on the monitoring of the abrasive particle characteristics by the electrostatic induction sensor is reduced or even eliminated, so that the accuracy of acquiring the abrasive particle characteristics is improved, the electrostatic induction sensor and the fringe electric field sensor are overlapped together in each single effect, the monitoring accuracy of the electrostatic induction sensor is optimized, and meanwhile, the two electrostatic induction sensors (an excitation charge and a left annular electrostatic induction electrode form one electrostatic induction sensor to a certain extent through the coupling of one fringe electric field sensor, and the excitation charge and a right annular electrostatic induction electrode form the other electrostatic induction sensor) are isolated, so that the influence of mutual interference is reduced.
The principle of acquiring the change value of the oil temperature by using the fringe field sensor is as follows:
When the upper and lower opposite-placed parallel polar plates of the traditional capacitor are placed on the same side, an electrostatic field is generated between the excitation polar plate and the receiving polar plate, so that the electric field at the edge is unevenly distributed, and the edge electric field effect of the capacitor is caused; the fringe electric field sensor is a composite sensor with three electrodes (a left annular electrostatic induction electrode, a right annular electrostatic induction electrode and an arc electrode), a certain fringe electric field effect exists between every two adjacent electrodes, as shown in figure 2, the distribution of electric lines of force is radial, an electric field is mainly concentrated between an excitation polar plate and a receiving polar plate, the fringe electric field effect is equivalent to that of a capacitor connected in parallel in the capacitor of the sensor, and a corresponding equivalent circuit is shown in figure 4;
Therefore, the fringe field sensor of the present invention is equivalent to a fringe field sensor composed of five capacitors (an arc electrode and a left ring-shaped electrostatic induction electrode form a fringe capacitor, an arc electrode and a right ring-shaped electrostatic induction electrode form a fringe capacitor, an arc electrode and a lubricating oil layer form a parallel plate capacitor, a left ring-shaped electrostatic induction electrode and a lubricating oil layer form a parallel plate capacitor, a right ring-shaped electrostatic induction electrode and a lubricating oil layer form a parallel plate capacitor), wherein C 21 and C 22 respectively represent the values of two fringe capacitance signals in pf, and C 11、C12、C13 respectively represent the values of three parallel plate capacitance signals in pf, and for C 21 and C 22, it can be represented by the following formulas:
Wherein epsilon 0 represents the vacuum dielectric constant (no unit), epsilon 1 and epsilon 2 represent the relative composite dielectric constant (no unit) corresponding to the fringe electric field, gamma represents the fringe proportionality coefficient (no unit), L represents the value of the length of the left annular electrostatic induction electrode in mm along the left-right direction, and theta represents the value of the radian of the arc electrode in rad (as shown in fig. 5);
The value of the capacitance signal measured by the fringe field sensor can reflect the medium distribution condition of the measured object at different temperatures to a certain extent. When the abrasive particles pass through the electrodes, the fringe electric fields between the electrodes are changed, namely C 21 and C 22 are changed, so that the relative composite dielectric constants epsilon 1 and epsilon 2 corresponding to the fringe electric fields are also changed, a certain relation exists between the dielectric constants of the medium and the oil temperature, and in the case of oil, epsilon t=εt0(1+αε delta t), wherein epsilon t0 represents the oil dielectric constant (no unit) at the oil temperature before the oil enters the insulating tube, epsilon t represents the oil dielectric constant (no unit) at the oil temperature after the oil enters the insulating tube, delta t represents the change value of the oil temperature before and after the oil enters the insulating tube in units of DEG C, alpha ε represents the temperature coefficient (no unit) of the dielectric constant, the change of the relative composite dielectric constants epsilon 1 and epsilon 2 can be obtained through the change of C 21 and C 22, and the change of the relative composite dielectric constants epsilon 1 and epsilon 2 can be used for obtaining the change value delta t of the oil temperature, and the deduction process is as follows:
Due to Thus, it can be inferred that
Let ε t1 be the relative complex permittivity of the arc electrode and the fringe field formed by the left annular electrostatic induction electrode, ε t2 be the relative complex permittivity of the arc electrode and the fringe field formed by the right annular electrostatic induction electrode, ε t1=ε0ε1,εt2=ε0ε2 and ε t1=εt0(1+αεΔt1),εt2=εt0(1+αεΔt2) can be known by the definition of the permittivity, therefore:
The principle of acquiring the water content by using the fringe field sensor is as follows: the variation in dielectric constant of the medium obtained by the fringe field sensor is mainly caused by three factors: the influence of the temperature change of the oil on the dielectric constant of the medium is analyzed, only the factors of the oil particles and the moisture can be considered, and the electrostatic induction sensor can monitor the abrasive particles by applying the electrostatic induction principle, so that the influence of the abrasive particles flowing through the electrode on the dielectric constant is eliminated, and the monitoring of the water content in the oil is realized.
Advantageous effects
(1) According to the oil sensor, the arc-shaped electrodes with the radian theta are additionally arranged between the annular electrostatic induction electrodes, and the arc-shaped electrodes with the radian theta can be used for increasing the interval between the annular electrostatic induction electrodes, so that the aim of avoiding serious aliasing of output signals of the two electrodes is fulfilled.
(2) According to the full-flow online oil characteristic monitoring method, the oil abrasive particle characteristic can be obtained by applying the electrostatic induction effect, and the influence caused by monitoring the abrasive particle characteristic by the electrostatic induction sensor is reduced or even eliminated based on the temperature change obtained by the fringe electric field effect, so that the oil abrasive particle characteristic is monitored more accurately.
(3) According to the full-flow online oil characteristic monitoring method, the fringe electric field effect is applied, so that the dielectric constant change can be obtained, the oil temperature change can be obtained through the dielectric constant change, and the change part caused by the abrasive particles in the dielectric constant change can be stripped out based on the oil abrasive particle characteristic obtained by the electrostatic induction effect due to the fact that the dielectric constant change contains the interference change generated by a certain amount of moisture as a medium, so that the water content monitoring is realized.
(4) According to the invention, fringe electric field effect is firstly applied to the arc electrode from the classical plane electrode, and meanwhile, the electrostatic induction sensor and the fringe electric field sensor are coupled, so that on the basis of obtaining the abrasive particle characteristics, the change value of the oil temperature and the water content of the oil are obtained, the synchronous acquisition of multidimensional data is realized, and both metal and nonmetal materials can be used.

(4) Processing the voltage signal e and the voltage signal f to obtain oil characteristics;
The oil characteristics comprise abrasive particle characteristics, the change value of the oil temperature before and after the oil enters the insulating tube 6 and the water content of the oil;
The calculation formula of the change value of the oil temperature before and after the oil enters the insulating tube 6 is as follows:
Wherein Δt represents a change value of oil temperature before and after oil enters the insulating tube 6 in units of ℃ and C 21 represents a value of fringe capacitance signal a in units of pf, C 22 represents a value of fringe capacitance signal b in units of pf, L represents a value of length of the left annular electrostatic induction electrode 3 in units of mm in the left-right direction, θ represents a value of radian of the arc electrode 4 in units of rad, γ represents an edge proportionality coefficient, ε t0 represents an oil dielectric constant at the oil temperature before the oil enters the insulating tube 6, and α ε represents a temperature coefficient of the dielectric constant;
When the formula is calculated, only numerical values are substituted, and units are not substituted;
The method for obtaining the water content of the oil liquid comprises the following steps: the method comprises the steps of obtaining a change value A of a dielectric constant caused by moisture and abrasive particles flowing through an electrode before and after oil enters an insulating tube 6 according to a voltage signal e, obtaining a change value B of the dielectric constant caused by the abrasive particles flowing through the electrode before and after oil enters the insulating tube 6 according to a voltage signal f, subtracting the change value B of the dielectric constant from the change value A of the dielectric constant to obtain a change value C of the dielectric constant before and after oil enters the insulating tube 6, and finally obtaining the water content of the oil according to the change value C of the dielectric constant.
In order to verify the accuracy of the monitoring method of the present invention, the following experiments were now performed:
First, the temperature sensor and the device of example 1 were simultaneously placed in a refrigerator to bring both to 2 deg.c:
Then, the device of the embodiment 1 is placed in a constant temperature box at 25 ℃, and the full-flow online oil characteristic monitoring method of the embodiment 2 is adopted to monitor the temperature of the simulated oil, wherein the relationship between the fringe capacitance signal and the oil temperature is shown in figure 10 after the oil temperature value obtained by converting the measured fringe capacitance signal in the monitoring process;
The temperature sensor is placed in an incubator at 25 ℃ and then the temperature of the simulated oil liquid measured by the temperature sensor is recorded;
finally, comparing the temperatures obtained by the two methods, as shown in fig. 11 and fig. 12, it can be seen from the figures that the temperature change of the simulated oil measured by the invention is basically consistent with the temperature change measured by the temperature sensor, so that the temperature change of the simulated oil measured by the invention is accurate.
