The invention discloses a high energy consumption damping wall, and belongs to the technical field of high-rise structure vibration reduction. The high energy consumption damping wall comprises damping plate outer frames, damping plates, and a T-shaped structure; the damping plate outer frames are fixed to a lower floor slab; the multiple damping plates are arranged in the damping plate outer frames, and working chambers formed in the positions, between the adjacent damping plates, in the damping plate outer frames are filled with shear thickening fluids (STF) correspondingly; the horizontal part of the T-shaped structure is fixedly connected with an adjacent last floor structure, the lower vertical part of the T-shaped structure penetrates into the damping plate outer frames and the damping plates, the end of the T-shaped structure is connected to the bottom edges of the damping plates, and the two sides of the T-shaped structure are connected with the damping plates and the damping plate outer frames respectively; a plurality of shear mechanisms are arranged in the damping plates, one ends of the shear mechanisms are fixedly connected with the T-shaped structure, the other ends of the shear mechanisms are directionally hinged to the damping steel plates, and the shear mechanisms are arranged parallel to the plate surfaces of the damping plates; and when a high-rise structureproduces shaking, power of adjacent floors is amplified by the shear mechanisms, the damping plates squeeze the STFs at the high rate, the shear thickening properties of the STFs are excited, high damping force is produced instantaneously, and external input energy is consumed.
