The application provides a
karst tunnel large
cave automatic
water discharge pressure reduction device and method under heavy rainfall conditions, which comprises a filtering mechanism, the top end of the filtering mechanism extends into the
cave, the bottom end of the filtering mechanism is connected with a cylindrical mechanism, the end of the cylindrical mechanism away from the filtering mechanism is fixedly connected with the top end of a tunnel mechanism, the high end of the cylindrical mechanism is connected with the inlet of a fine drain
pipe, the outlet of the fine drain
pipe is connected with the tunnel mechanism, the low end of the cylindrical mechanism is connected with a coarse drain mechanism, and the other end of the coarse drain mechanism is connected with the tunnel mechanism. On the one hand, the hydrogeological environment of the tunnel is not damaged, the underground
water balance is protected, the automatic grading
discharge of the
cave underground water is realized, the
water pressure outside the tunnel structure is reduced, the tunnel structure performance is protected, and the unreasonable stress of the tunnel structure caused by excessive
water pressure is avoided to prevent the structure damage. On the other hand, the integrity of the secondary lining structure of the tunnel is not damaged, and the structure performance reduction caused by local
stress concentration is avoided.
