The device comprises a sample saturation unit, a critical permeating gas pressure test unit, an axial pressure simulation unit and a radial confining pressure simulation unit. The device can accurately test critical permeating gas pressure of the water-saturated stratum tunnel face soil with different void ratios under different three-dimensional stress and test the quantitative relation between the permeating gas pressure and gas loss ratio, so that reliable key test data and basis are provided for water-saturated stratum shield tunnel cutting-tool replacement construction with pressure, on the premise of effectively ensuring tunnel face stability, construction cost is reduced, construction progress is provided, and construction safety is ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a test device and a test method for the critical seepage air pressure of the tunnel face soil in a saturated formation under three-dimensional stress. Background technique [0002] During the tunnel construction process through the shield method through the water-saturated stratum, with the continuous wear of the shield cutter, the excavation efficiency is continuously reduced, and the cutter needs to be replaced. If the tool is changed under normal pressure, the tunnel surface is prone to instability and damage under the joint action of water pressure and earth pressure, which seriously endangers the safety of tool change workers and affects the construction process. The pressurized tool change technology uses an air compressor to pressurize the air and inject it into the pressure-stabilizing cabin, so that the air pressure and the soil pressure in the cabin are dynamically balanced, and at the same time, the soil in the cabin...

Problems solved by technology

At present, the main problems of the relevant test equipment for simulating tool change under pressure are (1) The test cannot realize the saturation of the sample and the subsequent measurement of the infiltration pressure through the same device. In the test equipment, many unnecessary artificial disturbances will be caused to the original sample, resulting in structural damage of the sample, making the test results inaccurate; , the confining pressure will also increase and cannot be quantitatively controlled. In the test, the soil mass will change with the gas entering, and the soil confining pressure will also change. These are quite different from the actual environment of tool change under pressure, and cannot be truly simulated. The three-dimensional stress state and the water-air two-phase flow process of the soil in the actual environment cause distortion of the test results

[0003] Therefore, if the test resu
