1. A method for measuring fluid saturation in on-line displacement applied to a device for measuring fluid saturation in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) on-line displacement, characterized in comprising:
measuring a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) T2 spectrum under the dead volume filling of the on-line displacement system as displacing phase fluid and the core to be measured as saturated nuclear magnetic detection phase fluid to generate a calibrated T2 spectrum;
measuring a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) T2 spectrum of a process in which the core to be measured is converted from a saturated displaced phase fluid into a displacing phase fluid to generate a displacement process T2 spectrum;
generating the fluid saturation of the on-line displacement system in real time according to the calibrated T2 spectrum and the displacement process T2 spectrum, wherein,
the dead volume is the sum of the space of a liquid discharge end evacuation pipe, a liquid discharge end liquid discharge pipe, a liquid inlet end evacuation pipe, a liquid inlet end liquid inlet pipe and the space of the diversion trench of the core holder plug;
the nuclear magnetic detection phase fluid is a phase fluid in which the influence of the nuclear magnetic resonance is difficult to eliminate, among the displacing phase fluid and the displaced phase fluid;
