Through the coordinated use of the upper fixed plate 14, the through hole 30, the moving block 31, the slide groove 32, the slider 33, the fixed rod 34 and the third pressure spring 35, by simply pushing the moving block 31 to make it slide smoothly in the through hole 30, the slide groove 32 and the slider The precise cooperation of 33 effectively enhances the stability of movement, thereby driving the second limiting block 29 to move accurately into the second limiting groove 27, thereby realizing a stable and convenient disassembly operation of the upper simulated rock layer 15, thereby not only ensuring the firmness of the upper simulated rock layer 15 during installation, but also greatly improving its convenience when it needs to be replaced. It is firmly installed on the top of the diversion chamber 3 through the fixing frame 36, and a plurality of hydraulic telescopic cylinders 37 are used to apply precise and controllable pressure to the upper fixing plate 14 to simulate the formation pressure conditions. At the same time, the outer walls of the fluid output pipe 6 and the fluid injection pipe 5 are wrapped with an insulation layer 38, which effectively reduces heat loss and ensures the stability of the fluid temperature. A three-way valve 39 is configured at one end of the fluid output pipe 6, which is not only convenient for introducing the fluid into the liquid collection tank 40 for collection and analysis , and vacuum treatment can be achieved by connecting the vacuum pump 41, which can prevent the air in the guide chamber 3 from affecting the experimental results. The heating tube 42 and the cooling tube 53 are respectively wound around the outer wall of the temperature regulating container 9 to achieve precise control of the temperature in the container. The first water pump 43 connected to one end of the heating tube 42 circulates the hot water in the heating tank 44 to the heating tube 42, and the electric heating rod 45 at the bottom of the heating tank 44 ensures that the hot water continues to maintain the required temperature. At the same time, the second water pump 46 connected to one end of the cooling tube 53 circulates the coolant in the cooling tank 47 to the cooling tube 53. The cooling tank 47 accelerates the cooling process through the cooling plate 52 and the fan 49 in the refrigerator shell 48 on one side, thereby providing an ideal temperature control environment for the solution in the container.
