Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application mainly relates to the technical field of earth-rock dam leakage detection, and particularly relates to a method for detecting earth-rock dam leakage flow rate based on single-hole dilution method. BACKGROUND
[0002] In current earth-rock dam leakage detection, the single-hole dilution method is widely used due to low cost, good site adaptability, direct determination of seepage velocity, and no need for parameter conversion. The single-hole dilution method is a technical method for quantitatively determining the groundwater seepage velocity by monitoring the change rule of the concentration of a tracer in a borehole with time. The principle is based on the convection-diffusion process of the tracer in the aquifer and the law of conservation of mass. However, in actual detection, the method has the following technical bottlenecks:
[0003] The initial mixing uniformity is insufficient. The simple liquid injection method (such as pouring a whole tank) and manual stirring easily cause uneven distribution of the tracer or stratification of the water column, which affects the reliability of the conductivity decay curve. The operation process is discrete and inefficient. The concentration of the tracer is estimated by relying on manual experience. The injection depth is not accurately controlled. The stirring intensity and time lack quantitative standards. Human errors are easily introduced in the connection of each link. The existing seepage flow rate calculated based on the dilution curve ignores the geometric distortion (local flow rate amplification effect) and non-Darcy seepage (inertial resistance change under high Reynolds number) caused by the borehole, resulting in systematic distortion of the flow rate calculation results. SUMMARY

It is to be understood that these examples are only used to illustrate the present application and not intended to limit the scope of the present application.

[0050] The present embodiment provides a soil and rock dam leakage flow rate detection method based on single-hole dilution method, and the main flow is as shown in Fig. 1. Figure 3
[0051] The leakage flow rate detection method proposed in the present embodiment is mainly realized by the following leakage flow rate detection device. The device mainly includes a tracer injection module, a pneumatic stirring module, a monitoring array, and an intelligent analysis platform.
[0052] Tracer injection module: The module is composed of a liquid storage tank, a pressure-resistant conduit system (including sectional valves), a pressure test unit, and a cleaning unit. The liquid storage tank is used to store the pre-configured tracer solution; the pressure-resistant conduit is equipped with an adjustable-depth injection inlet valve at the end, which realizes accurate stratified injection; the pressure test unit detects the system tightness by pressurizing to 0.5 MPa and maintaining pressure; the cleaning unit thoroughly flushes the pipeline with high-pressure clean water after injection to prevent residual contamination.
[0053] Pneumatic stirring module: The module includes a flexible ring-shaped aeration pipe (with uniform air outlet holes and bottom counterweight) and a compressed air pump (flow rate 30-50 L / min). The aeration pipe covers the entire water column depth of the borehole, and the bottom counterweight ensures underwater stability; the air pump provides a constant compressed air flow, which forms a micro-bubble group through the air outlet holes.
[0054] Monitoring array: The module is composed of a multi-node conductivity-temperature composite sensor array, an adjustable interval fixed support, a depth encoder, and a data acquisition terminal. The sensor spacing can be dynamically adjusted according to the water column height; the depth encoder accurately records the position of each node from the orifice; the data acquisition terminal stores the original conductivity and water temperature data in real time.
[0055] Intelligent Analysis Platform: This platform integrates data preprocessing, model calculation, and visualization systems, including a conductivity-temperature correction algorithm, a seepage velocity correction model, a profile mapping module, and a human-computer interaction interface. Its functions cover accurate calculation of seepage velocity and visualization of two-dimensional flow velocity profiles: First, the original conductivity values are uniformly corrected to the 25℃ standard value; second, based on the borehole radius correction factor β and the non-Darcy effect correction term γ, the traditional dilution curve model is optimized to eliminate geometric distortion and inertial effect errors; finally, a seepage velocity profile map along the borehole depth is output, revealing the spatial distribution characteristics of seepage channels in earth-rock dams.
[0056] Figure 1 The diagram shown is a flowchart of the main operation of the seepage velocity detection method for earth-rock dams based on the single-hole dilution method proposed in this embodiment. The specific process and principle are as follows:
[0057] (1) Measure the background value of electrical conductivity in the borehole
[0058] A monitoring array equipped with multiple conductivity-temperature composite sensors is vertically placed into the borehole water column and fixed in a predetermined position (the sensor spacing can be adjusted according to the height of the water column in the borehole), accurately recording the depth of each sensor from the surface of the borehole opening.
[0059] After turning on the data acquisition system and waiting for the sensor readings to stabilize (reading change <1% for 3 consecutive minutes), measure the conductivity of the water at different depths within the borehole. Figure 1 and water temperature T .
[0060] Using formula (1), the measured depths are... K Corrected to the conductivity value at the standard temperature of 25°C.
[0061] K 25 = K / [1+ K ( T -25)](1;
[0062] In the formula: D 25 The conductivity is the electrical conductivity at a standard temperature of 25°C. K Temperature coefficient; T This refers to the water temperature of the water column inside the borehole.
[0063] Calculate the conductivity at all depths D 25 The average value is used as the temperature-corrected baseline conductivity value at that borehole location. K 25 _ b .
[0064] (2) Prepare tracer solution
[0065] Target tracer solution concentration setting: in order to make the average conductivity in the borehole significantly increase after the tracer solution injection (usually the target is to increase 5-10 times), set the target conductivity at 25°C standard temperature K 25 _ target = N · K 25 _ b ( N Target multiple).
[0066] Establish the conductivity-concentration relationship (as shown in K ):
[0067] ① In the laboratory, use the water source near the borehole (or similar water quality) to prepare tracer solutions of different concentrations.
[0068] ② Measure the conductivity value of each concentration of tracer solution at 25°C Figure 2 25示踪剂 and the corresponding tracer solution concentration C .
[0069] ③ Through linear regression, establish the relationship between the conductivity of the tracer solution at 25°C standard temperature and the concentration (2):
[0070] K 25示踪剂 = a · C + b (2);
[0071] In the formula: K 25示踪剂 is the conductivity of the tracer solution at 25°C standard temperature (μS / cm); C is the concentration of the tracer solution (mol / L); a is the proportionality coefficient; b is the background conductivity (μS / cm), approximately equal to K 25 _ b .
[0072] Calculate the mass of the required tracer solution:
[0073] ① Target concentration: according to formula (2) and target conductivity K 25 _ target , calculate the target concentration of the tracer solution, formula (3) as follows:
[0074] C _ target =( K 25 _target - b ) / a (3);
[0075] 2. Drilling water column volume: measure the water level depth in the drilling and the drilling radius H , calculate the water column volume, formula (4) as follows: r
[0076] V= πr 2 H (4);
[0077] 3. The tracer solution mass m that needs to be increased, the calculation formula (5) as follows:
[0078] m = ( C _ target - C _ b ) · V · M NaCl (5);
[0079] In the formula: C _ b The average background concentration in the drilling; V is the water column volume (L) in the drilling; M NaCl The molar mass of the tracer.
[0080] (3) Tracer solution injection
[0081] The end of the conduit is connected to the outlet valve of the liquid storage tank. Slowly lower the end of the conduit into the drilling and keep it about 0.5 m from the bottom of the hole (avoid direct insertion into the sediment to cause disturbance);
[0082] Pipeline pressure test: close the conduit end valve, test the ground connection pipeline to 0.5 MPa, and keep the pressure for 15 minutes without pressure drop, to confirm that the system has no leakage.
[0083] Inject tracer solution: open the valve and start injecting the prepared tracer solution at a stable low speed not greater than 5 L / min. Divide the tracer solution into four equal parts and inject 25% of the total amount each time. Before each injection, adjust the conduit depth to the predetermined position for injection. The injection positions are about 0.5 m from the bottom of the hole, 1 / 4 water column depth from the bottom of the hole, 1 / 2 water column depth from the bottom of the hole, and 3 / 4 water column depth from the bottom of the hole, respectively. After completing the four injections, first close the outlet valve of the liquid storage tank, then close the injection inlet valve at the end of the conduit, slowly and evenly pull the tracer injection conduit out of the drilling, and immediately flush the entire injection pipeline system with sufficient clean water to prevent residual tracer from contaminating subsequent tests or equipment.
[0084] (4) Stir the water body
[0085] The annular flexible nylon aeration pipe is arranged in the borehole, ensuring covering the whole water column depth, and the aeration pipe bottom is fixed with additional weight. The air exhaust holes are arranged at a certain distance between the aeration pipes, and the compressed air source (air pump) is connected to the aeration pipe system. The compressed air is delivered at a flow rate of 30-50 L / min to carry out aeration stirring. The aeration stirring is continued for 8-10 minutes to ensure that the tracer solution is uniformly diffused in the whole water column to form a uniform flow field. After the aeration is completed, the air pump is first turned off, and the aeration pipe is slowly pulled out to avoid disturbing the water body.
[0086] (5) Measurement of conductivity change over time
[0087] Immediately after the stirring is stopped, the monitoring array is re-vertically placed in the water column and accurately fixed at the same depth position recorded in step (1).
[0088] The data acquisition system is started, and the recording interval (such as every 1 minute) is set to automatically record the conductivity values and water temperature at all sensor positions.
[0089] The monitoring is continued, and when the continuous conductivity change rate of all monitoring points is less than 0.5% / h, it is considered that the dilution process tends to be stable, and the recording is stopped.
[0090] (6) Seepage flow rate calculation and analysis
[0091] Data preprocessing: for the conductivity values measured at all times and all depths, the formula (1) is applied for temperature correction to obtain the conductivity at the standard temperature of 25°C.
[0092] Seepage flow rate correction:
[0093] Currently, the seepage flow rate is commonly calculated based on the dilution curve (conductivity-time decay model) (formula (9)), but this formula does not consider the influence of the borehole itself on the water flow velocity field, resulting in distortion of the measured flow rate.
[0094] v = πr 2 / (2 α 1 t )·ln( K 25_0 / K 25 _ t )(9);
[0095] In the formula: K 25_0 is the conductivity at time t =0; K 25 _t t t conductivity at time t; t t r r α 1
[0096] To reduce the deviation of the estimated flow velocity caused by the local velocity amplification and non-Darcy seepage (inertial effect) of the borehole itself, the borehole radius correction factor β and the non-Darcy effect correction term K are introduced into the formula (6) to establish the corrected flow velocity formula.
[0097] The borehole radius correction factor β , which is related to the borehole radius r and the characteristic length of the aquifer L , is used to correct the local flow field distortion caused by the borehole, and the expression (7) is as follows:
[0098] β = 1+ r / L ) n (7);
[0099] In the formula: n is an empirical index (usually 1-2)
[0100] The non-Darcy effect correction term G is introduced when the seepage velocity is high and the Reynolds number G exceeds the critical value Re crit , which corrects the inertial term influence, and the formula (8) is as follows:
[0101] Re = 1+ a 2· R e (8);
[0102] In the formula: a 2 is an empirical coefficient, G is the Reynolds number.
[0103] Finally, the corrected seepage flow velocity formula (6) is as follows:
[0104] v 修正 = β · Re · πr / (2 α 1 t )·ln( G 25_0 / K 25 _t ) (6);
[0105] Calculation and output:
[0106] The position information of each sensor is recorded by the intelligent analysis platform, and the flow rate at each position is calculated by using the built-in algorithm (formula (6)), to obtain the corrected flow rate corresponding to the depth of each sensor. Subsequently, the platform outputs the seepage velocity profile along the depth of the borehole, realizing the detection of the seepage flow rate of the earth and rockfill dam.
[0107] K Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 6, which is a schematic diagram of the distribution curve of the seepage flow rate in two boreholes output by the method of the present embodiment, the corresponding relationship between the depth of the borehole and the seepage flow rate can be determined intuitively, and the output result has very high precision.
