With the aim of addressing the difficulty of detecting metal surface cracks and corrosion defects in complex environments, we propose a detection method for metal surface cracks and corrosion defects based on TE01-mode microwave. The microwave detection equations of cracks and corrosion defects were established by the Maxwell equations when the TE01 mode was excited by microwaves, and the relationship model between the defect size and the microwave characteristic quantity was established. A finite integral simulation model was established to analyze the influence of defects on the microwave electric field, magnetic field, and tube wall current in the rectangular waveguide, as well as the return loss at the defect; an experimental platform for the detection of metal surface cracks and corrosion defects was built. The absolute value of the return loss of the microwave reflected wave increased, and with the increase of the defect width, the microwave detection frequency at the defect decreased. The TE01-mode microwave has good detection ability for metal surface cracks and corrosion defects and can effectively detect cracks with a width of 0.3 mm. |
