Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of geotechnical engineering model tests, and particularly relates to a one-dimensional hydrothermal migration test device and test method for geotechnical model soil. Background Technique

[0002] When the shield cutter head penetrates through the clay stratum, the clay debris cut off will adhere to the surface of the cutter head, and form solid or semi-solid lumps under the extrusion of the cutter head, and adhere to and block the cutter head, resulting in a decrease in the penetration of the cutter during stratum cutting, and reducing the shield excavation efficiency. Therefore, the adhesion between the soil and the cutter head surface is one of the important reasons for the formation of mud cakes on the cutter head surface. The existence of mud cakes will not only increase the torque of the shield cutter head, but also block the slurry suction port of the slurry discharge pipe, which will seriously affect the shield construction technology and construction safety. The handling and repair of a series of construction problems such as muck improvement, mud cake removal, shield system transformation, shutdown and opening of the cabin, and risk prevention have greatly increased the construction cost.

[0003] Under normal working conditions, the temperature of the shield cutter head is generally 40 - 50 °C. However, during the tunneling process of the shield, especially under the conditions of composite strata, with the formation and increase of mud cakes, the torque and total thrust of the cutter head increase significantly, and the propulsion speed slows down, resulting in the cutter head temperature reaching 400 - 500 °C, or even higher.

[0004] Research shows that the water content and temperature of the soil have a great influence on the adhesion characteristics between the soil and the interface. Therefore, to obtain the formation mechanism and development law of shield mud cakes and solve the common engineering problem of cutter head caking with mud, it is necessary to understand the properties of the soil on the excavation surface affected by the high temperature of the cutter head. Therefore, it is necessary to study the hydrothermal migration law of the soil under the heating state. The present invention can provide a sleeve-type one-dimensional hydrothermal migration test device and test method for soil, providing a test means for solving the law of the influence of temperature on soil properties. Summary of the Invention

One end of each layer of the sleeve has a recessed alignment groove in the inner ring part, and the other end has a protruding part in the inner ring part.

The porous bottom plate 7 is fixed at the leftmost end with screws 4. The right side of the bottom plate is closely attached to the permeable stone 6. The cover plate 2 is fixed at the rightmost end with screws 4 to form a soil box; the test soil 8 is filled in the soil box, and the test soil 8 is closely attached to the heating plate 3.

[0032] A heat-insulating layer 9 is provided on the inner wall of the sleeve 1. A counterpoint groove is formed by partial depression of the inner ring at one end of each layer of the sleeve 1, and the inner ring at the other end protrudes. A sealing rubber 10 is provided along the outer edge of the protruding part. The sleeves 1 are counterpointed by the counterpoint grooves and are overlapped with each other at the head and tail and then fixed by screws 4. The number of layers of the sleeves 1 is determined according to the requirements of the test heating influence range. Small holes are opened on the body of each layer of the sleeve 1 for inserting the needle-type sensors 5. To ensure the sealing between the small hole part and the needle-type sensors 5, the gap between the small hole part and the needle-type sensors 5 is filled with hot paraffin or hot resin after inserting the needle-type sensors 5. The sleeve 1 can be one of a hollow cylinder or a hollow prism and is made of metal or engineering plastic. The needle-type sensor 5 can be a temperature sensor, a soil moisture sensor or a multi-functional sensor.

[0033] The porous bottom plate 7 and the overlapping sleeve 1 are fixed to each other by screws 4. A number of small holes are opened on the plate surface of the porous bottom plate 7. The permeable stone 6 is closely attached to the inside of the porous bottom plate 7. In the hydrothermal migration test, due to the sealing of the sleeve 1 wall, the bottom is the only outlet for water and heat, realizing one-dimensional hydrothermal migration.

The size of the heating plate 3 is determined according to the test simulation ratio, and the heating power and temperature can be controlled according to the heating temperature requirements of the test.

[0035] The parameters such as the soil type, water content and compactness of the test soil 8 are determined according to the test requirements. For every 1-2 rings of the overlapping sleeves 1 fixed, the test soil 8 is filled in layers and tamped.
