Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of material performance testing technology, and specifically relates to a pressure-temperature-damage coupled air tightness testing system and method for flexible materials. Background Technology

[0002] Compressed air energy storage technology, as a large-scale physical energy storage technology, utilizes electrical energy to drive a compressor during the energy storage process, generating high-pressure air which is then stored in a gas storage tank. During energy release, the air in the storage device expands, driving a turbine generator to produce electricity. Existing compressed air energy storage artificial underground caverns typically consist of surrounding rock, concrete lining, and a sealing layer. The surrounding rock bears the cavern pressure, the lining transmits the pressure, and the sealing layer seals the gas stored in the cavern.

[0003] In recent years, numerous researchers both domestically and internationally have dedicated themselves to exploring the use of flexible polymer materials to replace traditional steel linings as sealing layers. While flexible polymer materials have lower permeability compared to steel plates, this value is still higher. During the operation of underground caverns, due to the coupled effects of pressure, temperature, and fatigue damage, flexible polymer materials still pose a risk of air leakage. Therefore, to ensure the airtightness of underground gas storage caverns and prevent or control air leakage within acceptable limits, evaluating the airtightness and fatigue resistance of the sealing layer materials becomes crucial. However, existing airtightness testing systems for flexible polymer materials do not consider the impact of the coupling effect of pressure-temperature-fatigue damage on the material's airtightness during actual compressed gas storage operation.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a pressure-temperature-damage coupled flexible material airtightness testing system to simulate the real engineering environment to the greatest extent and to comprehensively evaluate the airtightness and fatigue resistance of the sealing layer material is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0059] This invention provides a pressure-temperature-damage coupled air tightness testing method for flexible materials. The method utilizes the pressure-temperature-damage coupled air tightness testing system described in the first aspect to test the air tightness of the flexible material. The testing method includes: fabricating the flexible material into a dumbbell-shaped sample 6; fixing one end of the sample 6 to a first clamp 21 and the other end to a second clamp 22; fixing the first clamp 21 to a steel column 12 and the second clamp 22 to a tension transmission assembly 11; performing a cyclic tension test on the sample 6 using the tension transmission assembly 11 to obtain samples 6 with different degrees of fatigue damage; adjusting the position of one end of a second vertical rod 53 within a groove 54 on a horizontal rod 51 according to the distance between the first clamp 21 and the second clamp 22, so that the second vertical rod 53... The distance between the vertical rod 53 and the first vertical rod 52 is equal to the distance between the first clamp 21 and the second clamp 22. The first clamp 21 and the second clamp 22 are transferred from the tensile fatigue device 1 to the fixing assembly 41 and fixed by the lifting device 5. The fixing assembly 41 is fixed to the base plate 44, and the first support frame 42 and the second support frame 43 are fixed to the base plate 44, with the first support frame 42 and the second support frame 43 located below the central area of ​​the sample 6. The upper box assembly 31 and the lower box assembly 32 are connected by bolts, and the central area of ​​the sample 6 is located in the gap reserved between the upper box assembly 31 and the lower box assembly 32, so that the central area of ​​the sample 6 is completely sealed. A high-pressure penetration test is performed on the central area of ​​the sample 6 to detect the airtightness of the sample 6.

[0060] The high-pressure permeation test on the central region of the sample 6 includes: heating the temperature in the upper pressure chamber 312 to a preset temperature using an oil bath 33; controlling the vacuum pump 363 via the controller 361 to evacuate the lower pressure chamber 322 and the upper pressure chamber 312 respectively, until the pressure in the lower pressure chamber 322 remains constant after the vacuum pump 363 is turned off; controlling the gas source 364 and the pressure stabilizing container 362 via the controller 361, so that the gas in the gas source 364 is filtered and delivered to the upper pressure chamber 312 until the upper pressure chamber 312 reaches a preset pressure; acquiring the test parameters via the data acquisition unit 34 and the data processor 35 to calculate the gas permeability and gas permeability coefficient of the sample 6.

[0061] The formula for calculating the gas permeability (GTR) is as follows:

[0062] ;

[0063] in, The volume of the pressure chamber is expressed in cubic meters (m³). 3 T represents the temperature of the upper surface of sample 6, in Kelvin (K). The pressure of the test gas in the pressure chamber is expressed in Pascals (Pa); A is the gas permeation area, expressed in square meters (m²). 2 ); The pressure change in the lower pressure chamber per unit time is expressed in Pascals per second (Pa / s); R is the gas constant, 8.314 m. 3 •Pa / (K•mol;

[0064] The formula for calculating the gas permeability coefficient Q is:

[0065] ;

[0066] Where d is the thickness of sample 6, in meters (m); Q is the gas permeability coefficient, in molars per square meter per second (mol•m / (m²)). 2 •s•Pa)];GTR is the gas permeability, in moles per square meter per second in Pascals [mol / (m 2 •s•Pa)).

[0067] Specifically, this invention provides a pressure-temperature-damage coupled air tightness testing method for flexible materials, comprising the following steps:

[0068] (1) The flexible material is made into a dumbbell-shaped sample 6, such as Figure 6As shown; making the specimen 6 into a dumbbell-shaped plate can effectively prevent stress concentration at the end of the specimen 6, ensure that the stress distribution in the central area (5cm×5cm) of the specimen 6 is uniform, and the stress in the central area should be at the maximum value of the stress in the entire specimen 6, so that the damage and failure of the specimen 6 during cyclic tension fatigue will occur in the central area.

[0069] (2) Fix one end of the sample 6 to the first clamp 21 and the other end of the sample 6 to the second clamp 22 to fix the sample 6 and facilitate subsequent transfer.

[0070] (3) Fix the first clamp 21 to the steel column 12 and the second clamp 22 to the moving block 115 by bolts. Start the motor 112 to drive the servo cylinder 113 to move the push rod 119, which in turn drives the moving block 115 to make linear reciprocating motion along the guide rod 118, so as to cause the sample 6 to be tensioned cyclically. The servo cylinder 113 can be controlled by the tension control box to change the tension stroke and frequency of the push rod 119 in order to obtain samples 6 with different fatigue damage degrees.

[0071] (4) Adjust the position of one end of the second vertical rod 53 in the sliding groove 54 on the horizontal rod 51 according to the distance between the first clamp 21 and the second clamp 22, so that the distance between the second vertical rod 53 and the first vertical rod 52 is equal to the distance between the first clamp 21 and the second clamp 22. Transfer the first clamp 21 and the second clamp 22 from the tensile fatigue device 1 to the fixing assembly 41 and fix them by the lifting device 5.

[0072] (5) Fix the fixing component 41 to the base plate 44, fix the first support frame 42 and the second support frame 43 to the base plate 44, and the first support frame 42 and the second support frame 43 are located below the central area of ​​the sample 6.

[0073] (6) The upper box assembly 31 and the lower box assembly 32 are connected by bolts so that the central area of ​​the sample 6 is located in the gap reserved between the upper box assembly 31 and the lower box assembly 32, and sealed by the O-ring 37 so that the sample 6 is in close contact with the upper pressure chamber 312 and the lower pressure chamber 322, thereby ensuring that the central area (permeation area) of the sample 6 is completely sealed.

[0074] (7) Perform a high-pressure penetration test on the central region of sample 6, such as Figure 7As shown, open the oil bath 33 and heat the upper pressure chamber 312 to the preset temperature by adjusting the oil bath; close valves one, two, and three, open valves four and five, start the vacuum pump 363 to evacuate the gas in the lower pressure chamber 322, then close valve five, open valve two, and evacuate the gas in the upper pressure chamber 312, so that the central area of ​​the sample 6 can be tightly attached to the bottom surface of the first porous stainless steel plate 311 and the top surface of the second porous stainless steel plate 321. Continuous evacuation needs to be carried out for a sufficiently long time to ensure that the low-permeability sample 6 can completely expel all absorbed gas; close valves two and four to maintain the pressure of the upper pressure chamber 312 and the lower pressure chamber 322 at 10 Pa or lower, and turn off the vacuum pump 363 (e.g., If the pressure in the lower pressure chamber 322 begins to rise, there may be a gas leak or the absorbed gas may not have been completely discharged. The above steps need to be repeated to continue evacuating the vacuum. Based on the readings of pressure sensors P1 and P2, continuously adjust the pressure reducing valve until the reading of pressure sensor P2 is the same as the preset gas pressure. Stop adjusting the pressure reducing valve and keep the gas source 364 connected. Open valve one to allow the test gas in the gas source 364 to pass through the filter to remove impurities and enter the pressure stabilizing container 362. After opening the valve of the pressure stabilizing container 362, introduce the purified test gas into the upper pressure chamber 312 until the pressure reaches the preset pressure. Close valve one to stop the supply of test gas and collect the data in the upper pressure chamber 312 and lower pressure chamber 322 through the data acquisition device 34.

[0075] When the pressure in the lower pressure chamber 322 begins to increase, it indicates that the test gas has permeated from the upper pressure chamber 312 into the lower pressure chamber 322. Record the pressure in the upper pressure chamber 312 at this time. The temperature T of the upper surface of sample 6; simultaneously, data from the lower pressure chamber 322 are collected, including the pressure collected by the lower pressure sensor 326 in the lower pressure chamber 322. The vertical axis represents time. Plot the gas permeation curve with the x-axis as the horizontal axis, as shown below. Figure 8 As shown, A1 is the initial linear segment, and A2 is the later saturation segment. Then, the gas permeability GTR and gas permeability coefficient Q are calculated based on the collected data. In order to reduce the inaccuracy of test results caused by the random error of a single sample 6 and improve the reliability of test results, each complete test must be carried out using 3 standard samples 6.

[0076] Following the steps described above, data on sample 6 under different temperatures, pressures, and fatigue damage conditions can be obtained, thereby calculating the gas permeability and gas permeability coefficient of sample 6 to achieve the airtightness test of sample 6.

[0077] It should be noted that since this second embodiment and the first embodiment are embodiments under the same inventive concept and their structures are completely identical, the structures in the second embodiment that are substantially the same as those in the first embodiment will not be described in detail. For the parts not described in detail, please refer to the first embodiment.

[0078] In summary, this invention addresses the issue of airtightness of flexible materials under different air pressures, temperatures, and fatigue damage levels. It proposes an innovation to conventional flexible material airtightness testing systems, employing a system combining high-pressure infiltration, thermal cycling, and tensile fatigue testing to study the effects of different air pressures, temperatures, and damage levels on the airtightness of flexible materials. To ensure effective system integration, the high-pressure infiltration device utilizes a high-pressure sealed box composed of an upper and lower box assembly. An oil bath pipe is installed outside the upper pressure chamber of the upper box assembly to achieve different temperature conditions. During cyclic tensioning of the specimen in the tensile fatigue device, bolts are loosened to separate the upper and lower box assemblies. After tensioning, the clamps at both ends of the specimen are lifted and fixed to the first and second sliders. The specimen is then placed into the infiltration area of ​​the high-pressure sealed box using detachable first and second support frames. Finally, bolts are tightened to seal the upper and lower box assemblies, and the airtightness of the specimen is tested. The entire test process involves first cyclically tensioning the sample and then conducting an airtightness test. During the airtightness test, the oil bath circulation device is turned on, and the temperature of the upper pressure chamber can be adjusted. After completing the entire test process, the tensioning frequency and stroke of the tensile fatigue device are changed to perform cyclic tensioning again, so that the sample reaches the set fatigue damage level. Then, the air pressure and the temperature of the upper pressure chamber are adjusted according to the test plan to conduct an airtightness test. By repeating this operation, the gas permeability and gas permeability coefficient of the flexible material under different air pressures, temperatures, and damage conditions can be calculated. This can effectively reproduce actual engineering conditions and evaluate the airtightness and fatigue resistance of the flexible material.

The controller controls the gas source and pressure stabilizing container, so that the gas in the gas source is filtered and delivered to the upper pressure chamber until the upper pressure chamber reaches the preset pressure. Test parameters are acquired using a data acquisition unit and a data processor to calculate the gas permeability and gas permeability coefficient of the sample.

10. The airtightness testing method for flexible materials based on pressure-temperature-damage coupling according to claim 9, characterized in that, The formula for calculating the gas permeability (GTR) is as follows: ; in, Let T be the volume of the pressure chamber and T be the temperature of the upper surface of the sample. The pressure of the test gas in the pressure chamber is given by [insert pressure here], and A is the gas permeation area. R represents the pressure change per unit time in the lower pressure chamber, where R is the gas constant. The formula for calculating the gas permeability coefficient Q is: ; Where d is the thickness of the sample.
