Study on time delay estimation in boiler acoustic temperature measurement based on third correlation PHAT-β
Abstract
In order to accurately measure the temperature of power plant boiler, a new algorithm of time delay was proposed based on third correlation and phase transform weighting on the basis of the research of traditional cross-correlation method and generalized cross-correlation. Small peaks can be weakened with the help of phase transform weighting and the addition of exponential coefficient β. The simulation result shows that the PHAT-β algorithm based on third correlation can accurately measure the value of time delay estimation compared with first correlation, second correlation and traditional third correlation, so as to improve the accurancy of temperature of power plant boiler.
