Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of frozen soil research, and in particular to a multifunctional frost heave test system and a test method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Soil and rock with negative or zero temperature and containing ice are called frozen soil. When the water in the soil turns into ice, the volume increases by 9%, which is called frost heave of water in the soil. When the volume expansion of water in the soil is sufficient to cause relative displacement between soil particles, the volume expansion of the soil during freezing is formed, which is called frost heave of the soil. Frost heave is divided into two types: in-situ frost heave and partial freezing heave. In a closed system, in-situ frost heave mainly occurs in the soil. In an open system with water replenishment, water migrates to a certain location and freezes under the action of a driving mechanism, which is called partial freezing heave, and the amount of frost heave is large. When salinization occurs in frozen soil, the complex soil-water-salt interaction changes the original frost heave and water migration mechanism, and aggravates the damage of buildings (structures) under periodic temperature change conditions.
[0003] At present, the research on soil water-heat-salt-force is mainly concentrated on indoor model tests. When studying a single soil layer, the temperature of the columnar soil sample needs to be maintained uniform from top to bottom. When studying multiple soil layers, an environment with a temperature gradient change from top to bottom is provided. When simulating the influence of groundwater, the soil sample needs to be pressure-free replenished with water. In addition, it is also necessary to simulate the influence of different constraints on frozen soil. The test equipment of the existing technology has low integration and cannot carry out coupled tests under the above multiple conditions. Summary of the invention

[0031] (1) Single soil layer or temperature gradient: When the cooling unit is closed and the lower cooling plate and upper temperature control plate are opened, a temperature gradient is formed in the soil sample, simulating multiple soil layer tests. When the lower cooling plate and upper temperature control plate are closed and the cooling unit is opened, the temperature in the soil sample is fixed and uniform, simulating a single soil layer test.
[0032] (2) Open system or closed system: When the pressureless water replenishment system is turned on, an open system test is conducted to simulate groundwater recharge. When the pressureless water replenishment system is turned on, the lower cold plate and the upper temperature control plate are turned on, and the temperature gradient is used as the driving force for water replenishment.

[0039] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0040] 1. The present invention provides a test device that can not only make temperature gradient (the temperature of the soil layer changes from top to bottom in a gradient), but also study a single soil layer (the temperature of each position in the soil layer is consistent), can be used for constant stress conditions (no force ring is installed, and the upper reaction beam is pulled down by a lever device), can be used for infinite stiffness conditions (no force ring is installed, and the upper reaction beam is locked) or boundary conditions (the force ring is installed, and the upper reaction beam is locked), can be used for open system tests (the pressureless water replenishment system is started to simulate the actual formation with groundwater recharge), and can be used for closed system tests (the pressureless water replenishment system is closed to simulate the actual formation without groundwater recharge). In this way, a variety of experimental studies are carried out, and the functions are diversified. In addition, the test device of the present invention has a simple structure, is easy to disassemble and assemble, is easy to operate, and is easy to promote and apply.
[0041] 2. The present invention adopts a lever force device, which can effectively apply a constant load to the soil sample, and through the lever structure, the lever principle is fully utilized, and a large load can be applied to the soil sample through a small weight, meeting the needs of different test conditions. At the same time, the displacement of the sample can also be completely restricted, and the restriction conditions can be converted. Thus, the functions in multiple application scenarios can be met.
[0042] 3. The replaceable double-layer barrel structure effectively avoids the lateral restriction of the soil sample expansion process by the laterally arranged temperature sensor (or other sensors such as salt sensor), hinders the expansion of the soil sample (prevents "locking"), and improves the test measurement accuracy of the device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0055] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0056] A multifunctional frost heave test system comprises a support frame, a test barrel disposed on the support frame, a temperature control system for controlling the temperature of the soil sample, a force application system for selectively applying different loads to the soil sample through the top of the test barrel, a pressureless water supply system for supplying water into the soil sample through the bottom of the test barrel, and a detection system, wherein:
[0057] The test barrel body comprises an inner sample barrel 1 for storing soil samples and a cooling part arranged on the circumferential outer wall of the inner sample barrel 1;
[0058] The temperature control system includes the cooling part, a lower cold plate fixed to the bottom of the test barrel, and an upper temperature control plate 3 that can be matched and sealed with the inner wall of the inner sample barrel 1. The upper temperature control plate 3 applies a load to the soil sample under the action of the force application system. The bottom of the inner sample barrel is sealed with the top of the lower cold plate (the top of the lower cold plate forms an assembly groove 23 for inserting the bottom of the test barrel, which is convenient for positioning the test barrel and sealing the inner sample barrel 1);
[0059] The force application system includes a lever force application device, a booster rod 54, and an upper reaction beam 2. A detachable force ring 60 is provided on the booster rod 54. When the upper reaction beam 2 is fixedly connected to the support frame and the force ring 60 is not installed on the booster rod 54, the upper reaction beam 2 simulates an infinite stiffness condition by fixing the position of the upper temperature control plate 3. When the upper reaction beam 2 is fixedly connected to the support frame and the force ring 60 is installed on the booster rod 54, a flexible boundary condition is simulated. When the upper reaction beam 22 is movably connected to the support frame, the upper reaction beam 2 pulled down by the lever force application device applies a load to the upper temperature control plate 3 through the booster rod 54 to simulate a constant stress condition.
[0060] The pressureless water replenishment system includes a water replenishment plate arranged at the bottom of the test barrel, and the water replenishment plate and the lower cold plate are enclosed to form a water replenishment cavity, and the water replenishment cavity is supplied with water through a communicating vessel structure. Unlike the peristaltic pump that supplies water through pressure, the present application uses pressureless water replenishment to simulate the actual formation environment conditions. After the upper temperature control plate 3 and the lower cold plate are turned on, a temperature gradient is formed in the soil sample, and under the driving force of the temperature gradient, pressureless water replenishment is performed through the communicating vessel structure.
[0061] The detection system includes a displacement sensor 61 arranged on the force ring 60 and / or a stress sensor 6 arranged on the booster rod 54 and / or a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature of the soil sample and / or a displacement sensor probe 7 for measuring the vertical displacement of the soil sample and / or a water replenishment metering device for measuring the water replenishment amount and water replenishment rate.
[0062] The soil sample is placed in the inner sample barrel 1. The upper temperature control plate 3 and the lower cold plate seal the upper and lower ends of the test barrel, so that the soil sample is in a relatively sealed state. The following three coupling tests can be carried out:
[0063] (1) Single soil layer or temperature gradient: When the cooling unit is closed and the lower cold plate and the upper temperature control plate 3 are opened, a temperature gradient is formed in the soil sample, simulating a test of multiple soil layers. When the lower cold plate and the upper temperature control plate 3 are closed and the cooling unit is opened, the temperature in the soil sample is fixed and uniform, simulating a test of a single soil layer.
[0064] (2) Open system or closed system: When the pressureless water replenishment system is turned on, an open system test is carried out to simulate groundwater recharge. When the pressureless water replenishment system is turned off, a closed system test is carried out to simulate the absence of groundwater recharge. It is the communicating vessel structure formed by the component such as the Maschine flask that makes it possible to simulate the pressureless water replenishment in the actual stratum during the test.
[0065] (3) Constant stress or infinite stiffness or flexible boundary conditions:
[0066] When the upper reaction beam 2 is fixedly connected to the support frame and the force ring 60 is not installed on the booster rod 54, the test is carried out under infinite stiffness conditions. At this time, the displacement of the soil sample is completely restricted, and the expansion force change mechanism of the soil sample is studied. In theory, the expansion force increases with the increase of displacement;
[0067] When the upper reaction beam 2 is movably connected to the support frame and the force ring 60 is not installed on the booster rod 54, the upper reaction beam 2 is pulled down by the constant pulling force of the lever force device, and the test under constant stress conditions is carried out. At this time, the soil sample is equivalent to a weight of a fixed weight being pressed on it. The pressure remains unchanged, and the expansion force is theoretically fixed and unchanged, which is equivalent to the stress generated by the overlying load.
[0068] When the upper reaction beam 2 is fixedly connected to the support frame and the force ring 60 is installed on the booster rod 54, a test under flexible boundary conditions is performed, and the pressure above the soil sample gradually increases with the expansion process.
[0069] During the test, the displacement sensor 61 is arranged on the vertical diameter of the ring structure of the force measuring ring 60 through a connecting component, and it can detect the vertical deformation displacement of the ring structure; in practice, the displacement measured by the force measuring ring 60 can be compared and verified with the displacement measured by the displacement sensor probe 7 to serve as a reference for the accuracy of the test results.
[0070] The temperature sensor collects the temperature changes of the soil sample in real time, the stress sensor 6 can reflect the stress generated by the soil sample during the frost heave process, the displacement sensor probe 7 measures the vertical displacement of the soil sample during the freeze-thaw process, and the water replenishment measurement device measures the water replenishment amount and water replenishment rate. These data can be recorded and processed manually or transmitted to the monitoring terminal for automatic processing.
[0071] The support frame includes a lower bottom plate 11 and a guide rod 24 fixed to the lower bottom plate 11, the lower cold plate is fixed to the lower bottom plate 11, and the bottom of the inner sample barrel 1 is sealed and fixed to the upper surface of the lower cold plate. The upper reaction beam 2 is slidably connected to the upper part of the guide rod 24, and the upper reaction beam 2 can be fastened to the guide rod 24 through a fastening connector, and the force plate 42 is slidably connected to the guide rod 24 located below the support frame to play a guiding role and ensure that the force plate 42 moves up and down in the vertical direction.
[0072] When the guide rod 24 and the upper reaction beam 2 are fastened together by the fastening connector, a test under infinite stiffness conditions can be performed, and the stress state, that is, the state of frost heave force, is mainly measured. The fastening connector can be a fixing bolt, and the guide rod 24 is provided with a thread. The two ends of the upper reaction beam 2 can be fixed to the two guide rods 24 respectively by the fixing bolt, and the position of the upper reaction beam 2 is fixed.
[0073] The setting of the guide rod 24 can realize the force transmission in the vertical direction without deviation. The support frame is fixed with a vertical guide rod 24. More preferably, the bottom of the guide rod 24 passes through the lower bottom plate 11 and is fixed to the lower bottom plate 11 by connecting bolts. The end of the upper reaction beam 2 is formed with a guide hole for the guide rod 24 to pass through. Furthermore, two guide rods 24 are provided, symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the test barrel, and the two ends of the upper reaction beam 2 are slidably connected to the two guide rods 24 respectively.
[0074] In order to maintain the stability of the temperature inside the test barrel, an insulation sleeve 58 is arranged on the outside of the test barrel, and the bottom of the insulation sleeve 58 is fixed on the lower cold plate or the lower bottom plate 11. The top of the test barrel is provided with the upper top plate 10 which can seal its opening. The upper top plate 10 is fixed to the lower bottom plate 11 or the lower cold plate by a first pull rod 12. A through hole is formed on the upper top plate 10 for the booster rod 54 to pass through. The booster rod 54 is sealed and connected to the through hole, which can play a role of heat insulation and reduce heat loss. The upper top plate 10 and the outermost insulation sleeve 58 form an enclosed space to play a role of heat insulation. The bottom of the first tie rod 12 is fixed to the lower bottom plate 11 or the lower cold plate by bolts 13, and the upper top plate 10 is fastened to the top of the first tie rod 12 by bolts 13; the upper and lower ends of the first tie rod 12 are threaded sections, and the upper top plate 10 and the lower bottom plate 11 can be fixed by the bolts 13 threadedly connected thereto. As shown in the figure, three first tie rods 12 are arranged, which are evenly distributed in a circular array with the axis of the test barrel as the axis, and the bottom of the lower bottom plate 11 is fixed with support legs 14 to place the entire test device on the test platform.
[0075] When the upper and lower cold plates or the surrounding cooling parts are turned on, the sample has no heat loss in the vertical direction, making the test more accurate and close to the real natural situation.
[0076] like Figure 2-3 As shown, the lever force applying device includes a lever assembly, a force plate 42, and a fulcrum block 43 fixed to the bottom of the support frame, wherein the lever assembly includes a lever 44, a weight 46 that can be selectively assembled on one end of the lever 44, the middle part of the lever 44 is hinged on the force plate 42, the bottom fulcrum of the fulcrum block 43 is in contact with the lever 44, and the force plate 42 is fixed to the upper reaction beam 2 through a second pull rod 47. Two second pull rods 47 are provided symmetrically to form a symmetrical pulling force. A contact groove is formed at the position where the lever 44 contacts the bottom fulcrum. In order to adapt to soil columns of different heights, the fulcrum block 43 is a plurality of replaceable fulcrum blocks 43 of different heights, or a fulcrum block 43 with adjustable height, so as to adjust the distance between the lever 44 and the lower base plate 11 when the lever 44 is balanced.
[0077] When weights 46 of different numbers or weights are assembled at the end of the lever 44, the lever 44 provides a constant pulling force to the force plate 42, and then provides a constant pulling force to the upper reaction beam 2 through the second pull rod 47, so as to realize the constant load. In the same way as the assembly of the first pull rod 12, the top of the second pull rod 47 is fastened to the upper reaction beam 2 by a fastening bolt, and the bottom is fastened to the force plate 42 by a fastening bolt. When disassembling the upper reaction beam 2, the fastening bolts can be removed.
[0078] Furthermore, in order to maintain the balance of the lever 44, the other end of the lever 44 is provided with a balancing block 45 which can be adjusted along its length direction, and the balancing block 45 and the weight 46 are respectively located at both ends of the lever 44. One section of the lever 44 is a threaded rod, and the balancing block 45 is connected to the threaded rod by threads. Before placing the weight, first adjust the balancing block 45 to balance the entire lever system, and then add the weight 46.
[0079] Furthermore, a tray 48 for placing a weight 46 is fixed to the end of the lever 44. The tray 48 is fixed to the end of the lever 44 through a connecting rod 49, and the top of the connecting rod 49 is fixedly connected to the lever 44 by a connecting screw hinge or an integral molding method. The lever 44 is directly hinged to the force plate 42 through a connecting shaft or a connecting screw, and a position near the middle of the lever 44 contacts the fulcrum block 43. The end of the lever 44 is hinged to two oppositely arranged connecting plates 53 on the top of the force plate 42 through a connecting shaft.
[0080] In order to accurately collect displacement data, the displacement sensor probe 7 is fixed downward on the upper top plate 10, and a measuring block 15 is fixed on the booster rod 54. The displacement sensor probe 7 detects the distance between the displacement sensor probe 7 and the measuring block 15 to measure the displacement of the soil sample. For example, when the soil sample frost heaves, it moves upward in the vertical direction, and the distance between the displacement sensor probe 7 and the measuring block 15 is reduced, so that the displacement of the soil sample is measured.
[0081] In order to accurately measure the temperature in the soil sample, the temperature sensor includes a first temperature sensor 16 vertically inserted into the soil sample through the upper temperature control plate 3 and / or one or more second temperature sensors 17 horizontally inserted into the soil sample through the side wall of the test barrel. When multiple second temperature sensors 17 are provided, the temperature of the soil sample at different heights can be detected. For the frost heave test under the temperature gradient (multiple soil layers), the temperature that needs to be measured is the temperature distribution on the entire soil column, because the temperature is different due to the temperature gradient on the entire soil column, so the sensor is inserted on the side wall.
[0082] The second temperature sensor is inserted into the hole in the side wall of the sample barrel. When the soil expands, multiple second temperature sensors and the test barrel impose lateral restrictions on the soil sample, forming a "locking" structure, which greatly restricts the expansion of the soil and reduces the measurement accuracy of the salt-frost heave instrument.
[0083] In order to prevent the soil sample from being lateral restricted during the frost heave process, that is, being "locked" by the test barrel, the test barrel includes a replaceable first test barrel and a second double-layer barrel, wherein the first test barrel includes the inner sample barrel 1 and a cooling portion arranged on the circumferential outer wall of the inner sample barrel 1, such as Figure 7-8 As shown, the second double-layer barrel body includes an inner sample barrel 1 and an outer sample barrel 50. Fig.10 As shown, the bottom of the inner sample barrel 1 is sealed and connected to the lower cold plate, the inner sample barrel 1 is slidably sleeved in the outer sample barrel, a small hole 18 for inserting the second temperature sensor 17 is formed on the side wall of the outer sample barrel, and a strip hole 19 for the second temperature sensor 17 to penetrate is formed on the side wall of the inner sample barrel 1, and the aperture of the strip hole 19 is larger than the aperture of the small hole 18. The strip holes are arranged one by one with the small holes, and the strip holes 19 provide space for the second temperature sensor 17 to move up and down, so that the soil sample drives the second temperature sensor 17 to move up during the frost heave process, and the outer sample barrel 50 and the second temperature sensor 17 move up relative to the inner sample barrel 1, preventing the soil sample from being locked by the test barrel body, thereby improving the accuracy of the test.
[0084] In order to test the influence of salinity, the detection system further comprises a plurality of salt sensors for testing salinity, and the salt sensors are plugged into different heights of the double-layer barrel body, and the arrangement is the same as that of the second temperature sensor 17 .
[0085] In order to prevent the inner sample barrel 1 from cracking due to excessive overburden during the overburden load test, reinforcing ribs are fixed on the side walls of the inner sample barrel 1 .
[0086] Therefore, when conducting a single soil layer test, the first test barrel is assembled on the support frame, and when conducting a gradient temperature test, the second double-layer barrel is assembled on the support frame. Different test barrels are selected according to different test requirements.
[0087] In order to visually check the changes of soil samples during frost heave, the test barrel is made of transparent material.

Such a setting is convenient for disassembly and assembly, and can improve the accuracy of measurement. When installing the force ring 60, the protrusion on the top of the force ring 60 is inserted into the positioning sleeve 20, and the fixing block at the bottom of the force ring 60 is inserted into the groove 55. When the force ring 60 is not installed, the top of the force-bearing shaft 21 is inserted into the positioning sleeve 20, and the bottom of the force-bearing shaft 21 is inserted into the groove 55.

[0107] (5) If necessary, use the adjusting bolts to fix the position of the upper reaction beam 2.
[0108] After the soil samples were filled, the frost heave test of a single soil layer under constant stress conditions in Example 2.1 and the frost heave test of a single soil layer under infinite stiffness conditions in Example 2.2 were respectively carried out. Both Examples 2.1 and 2.2 included a single freezing and freeze-thaw cycle, which was related to the temperature setting. In this example, the test barrel body was Figure 7 or Figure 8 In the first test barrel shown, the temperature is measured using a first temperature sensor. 2.1
[0110] The soil sample is loaded according to the above steps, the measuring ring 60 is not installed, the adjusting bolt is not assembled, the upper reaction beam 2 is slidably connected to the guide rod 24, a rated number of weights 46 are placed on the tray 48, the lever 44 rotates with the fulcrum block 43 as a fulcrum, the upper reaction beam 2 is pulled down by the second pull rod 47, the upper reaction beam 2 applies an upper load to the upper temperature control plate 3 through the power rod 54, and the upper temperature control plate 3 applies a constant load to the soil sample. 2.1.1
[0112] The frost heave test of a single soil layer under constant stress and single cooling is carried out. The specific operation process is: connect the cooling part to the cold bath, adjust the temperature of the cold bath to 25℃-20℃-15℃-10℃-5℃-0℃-(-5)℃-(-10)℃-(-15)℃-(-20)℃, and simulate the frost heave test of a single soil layer under single cooling. For example, the temperature change of a single soil layer from day to night, at this time, the frost heave test under single cooling is to be carried out. 2.1.2
[0114] A frost heave test was conducted under a freeze-thaw cycle of a single soil layer with constant stress. The specific operation process is: connect the cooling part to a cold bath, and adjust the temperature of the cold bath to 25℃-20℃-15℃-10℃-5℃-0℃-(-5)℃-(-10)℃-(-15)℃-(-20)℃-(-15)℃-(-10)℃-(-5)℃-0℃-5℃-10℃-15℃-20℃-25℃, simulating the macroscopic temperature changes of the soil layer throughout the year. 2.2
[0116] After the soil sample is loaded, the force ring 60 is not installed, and the upper reaction beam 2 is fastened to the guide rod 24 by adjusting bolts to completely limit the displacement of the sample.

Theoretically, the displacement deformation measured by the force measuring ring 60 at this time should be the same as the displacement measured by the displacement sensor probe 7. We can perform an accuracy comparison. Moreover, the displacement measured by the force measuring ring 60 multiplied by the stiffness coefficient K of the force measuring ring is equal to the frost heave stress, F=K*ΔX. F should be consistent with that measured by the stress sensor 6.

The temperature gradient is the driving force for the migration of soil moisture. After the water replenishment is completed, close the lower cold plate and the upper temperature control plate 3, open the circumferential cooling part, adjust the soil temperature to be uniform, and conduct the test.
[0138] For ease of explanation, spatial relative terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and the like are used in the embodiments to illustrate the relationship of one element or feature shown in the figure relative to another element or feature. It should be understood that, in addition to the orientation shown in the figure, the spatial terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation. For example, if the device in the figure is inverted, the element described as being "under" other elements or features will be positioned "on" other elements or features. Therefore, the exemplary term "under" can include both upper and lower orientations. The device can be positioned in other ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used here can be interpreted accordingly.
[0139] Furthermore, relational terms such as “first” and “second” and the like are merely used to distinguish one component from another having the same name, but do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these components.
[0140] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
