Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of pure water hydraulic systems, and in particular relates to a device and a method for cavitation detection of a pure water hydraulic system based on pressure.


BACKGROUND

Hydraulic transmission is a transmission mode that uses liquid as working medium to transfer energy, exchange energy and control. Hydraulic transmission and pneumatic transmission are called fluid transmission. Fluid transmission is a new technology developed according to the principle of hydrostatic transmission put forward by Pascal in the 17th century, and is widely used in engineering machinery, construction machinery, agricultural machinery, metallurgical machinery, mining machinery, space launch and other fields. At present, the level of fluid transmission technology has become an important symbol of the level of industrial development.


Because pure water has many advantages, such as easy access to materials, low price, no pollution, no combustion and low compressibility, pure water may replace mineral oil in various fields, so pure water hydraulic transmission has attracted more and more attention.


However, the air separation pressure of pure water is higher than the air separation pressure of traditional mineral oil, and pure water contains more air than traditional mineral oil under the same conditions, thus leading to cavitation in pure water hydraulic system more easily than traditional hydraulic-oil hydraulic system.


Cavitation is the phenomenon of surface deformation and material erosion after the object is impacted by cavitation during liquid movement, also known as erosion or cavitation erosion. In the process of cavitation, cavitation bubbles are rapidly generated, and then expand and collapse, forming shock waves or high-speed micro-jets in the liquid. After being impacted, the surface crystal structure of the metal materials is distorted, resulting in chemical instability, which makes the adjacent grains have different potentials, thereby accelerating the electrochemical corrosion process. The mechanical properties of materials in erosion area deteriorated significantly, resulting in a sharp increase in the amount of cavitation erosion. In the design of pure water hydraulic system, it is necessary to conduct model tests in advance and take measures to avoid cavitation as much as possible. In order to avoid cavitation, it is necessary to first detect whether cavitation has occurred and the degree of its occurrence. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device and a method for cavitation detection of a pure water hydraulic system based on pressure to solve the above problems.
