DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] The experimental principle of this invention: When conducting model experiments, to ensure comparability and usefulness of test data, simulation parameters must be determined based on the principle of similarity. The two most important parameters for gas flow in a model tunnel are the Mach number and the Reynolds number. As long as the speed of the model train matches that of the actual train, the Mach number is guaranteed to be the same. Based on the Reynolds similarity criterion and the properties of the "self-modeling zone," it can be assumed that Reynolds similarity is not necessarily required. This allows the determination of the fundamental variables in model experiments of high-speed trains entering and exiting tunnels, and the similarity model ratio can be determined based on the "P Theorem."
[0028] See the attached Figures 1 to 7According to an embodiment of the present invention, an ultra-high-speed railway tunnel aerodynamic test system includes a launch device 1, which includes a base 101, a launch tube 102, a propulsion rod 103, and a telescopic rod 104. The launch tube 102 is horizontally fixed on the base 101, and a combustion propulsion chamber 2 is fixed inside one end of the launch tube 102. The propulsion rod 103 is slidably connected in the launch tube 102 with one end thereof close to the combustion propulsion chamber. The telescopic rod 104 is vertically fixed to the edge of the other end of the propulsion rod 103. A notch 4 is opened along the axial direction of the launch tube 102 near the other end of the propulsion rod 103. The combustion propulsion chamber 2 ignites combustion and propels the propulsion rod 103 through a command fuze 3.
[0029] Experimental and testing device 5, which includes a track 501, a model train 502, a tunnel segment 503, a pressure and wind speed test assembly 504, a high-definition camera 505, a laser rangefinder 506, a microphone 507, and an industrial control computer 508. The track 501 is connected to the launch tube 102, and the model train 502 is slidably connected to the track 501. The telescopic end of the telescopic rod 104 is clamped to the bottom of the model train 502 to push the model train forward; the tunnel segment 503 is fixed to the track 501. A model tunnel is formed, the pressure and wind speed test components 504 are fixed on the inner side of the model tunnel, the high-definition cameras 505 are grouped in pairs and fixed on the outer sides of the two ends of the model tunnel, the laser rangefinders 506 are grouped in pairs and fixed on the outer sides of the two ends of the model tunnel, the microphone 507 is fixed at a position close to the laser rangefinder 506, and the industrial control computer 508 is electrically connected to the pressure and wind speed test components 504, the high-definition cameras 505, the laser rangefinder 506, the microphone 507 and the command fuse 3 respectively;
[0030] The recovery buffer device 6 includes a recovery buffer tube 601 and a recovery tube seat 602 . The recovery buffer tube 601 is fixed on the recovery tube seat 602 and is located at one end of the track 501 away from the launch tube 102 .
[0031] In other embodiments, a pressure relief pipe 7 is connected to the outer side of the middle portion of the launch tube 102, and a pressure relief valve is connected to the pressure relief pipe 7. After the device completes the launch and testing mission, the high-pressure gas accumulated in the launch pipe is discharged to reduce the pressure in the container to the normal operating pressure (local atmospheric pressure).
[0032] Specifically, the launch tube is a hollow shell with certain mechanical strength, good pressure resistance and good sealing performance. It is made of a high-temperature resistant alloy material with good ductility, easy processing and not easy to rust.
[0033] More specifically, the propulsion rod 103 has a piston head fixed to one end near the combustion chamber 2, and a buffer head fixedly connected to the other end. Four telescopic rods are integrally bonded to the front end of the propulsion rod, which are inserted through notches and slides into grooves at the bottom of the train car. A buffer head, made of rubber, is located at the impact end of the propulsion rod to absorb impact energy and mitigate the effects of the impact.
[0034] In other embodiments, a hydraulic buffer 8 is installed inside the launch tube 102, corresponding to the end of the propulsion rod 103's travel. The other end of the propulsion rod 103 abuts against the hydraulic buffer 8, providing a buffering effect. This serves as a safety device to prevent damage to the mechanism caused by hard collisions of the propulsion rod during operation. The hydraulic damping cushions and slows objects acting on it to a stop, providing a degree of protection.
[0035] In other specific embodiments, the track 501 includes an acceleration section 5011, an experimental section 5012 and a transition section 5013. A tubular cavity is defined in the acceleration section 5011, and the acceleration section 5011 is fixed to the outer peripheral side of the launch tube 102. A sliding opening penetrating the tubular cavity is defined at the top of the acceleration section 5011. A notch is defined at the top of the launch tube 102, and the sliding opening corresponds to the notch in upper and lower positions. The telescopic end of the telescopic rod 104 is located in the notch and the sliding opening.
[0036] In other embodiments, the model trains 502 are multiple sets, each with a groove 9 defined in the bottom. The telescopic rods 104 are electrically operated, with the telescopic ends of the rods 104 extending into the grooves 9. As the rods advance, they impart a certain velocity to the model trains, allowing them to pass through the tunnel. A high-speed telescopic rod with a velocity of v ≥ 200 mm / s is used. As the train accelerates, the ends of the rods engage the grooves at the bottom of the train cars, accelerating with the train. After acceleration, the rods rapidly retract and disengage from the train.
[0037] In other embodiments, a smoke generator 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the model tunnel and is electrically connected to the industrial control computer 508. Before the train runs, the smoke generator fills the tunnel with colored gas, facilitating the high-definition camera to record the aerodynamic effects.
[0038] In other embodiments, multiple constant-pressure holes 13 are provided on the sidewall of the launch tube 102, away from the combustion and propulsion chamber 2. The launch tube flows from the high-pressure area to the low-pressure area of the tube. Considering the impact of shock waves and high-speed airflow generated during the launch of the model train on the internal pressure of the tube, holes are provided in the launch tube sidewall to balance the internal and external pressures. Constant-pressure holes are provided every 3 meters, with a hole diameter D of 30 cm.
[0039] In other embodiments, track chutes 11 are formed along the top of the track 501, extending along its length. The track chutes 11 are arranged in pairs, side by side. The bottom of the model train 502 is fixedly connected to running rods 12, which are arranged in pairs and slideably connected to the track chutes 11. The train running rods are designed as continuous straight rods embedded in the track chutes. This allows the train to move only parallel to the track, ensuring smooth and high-speed operation.
[0040] Specifically, pressure relief holes are opened on the side or top surface of the tunnel segments at the entrance and exit of the model tunnel. The area of the pressure relief holes can be determined based on actual conditions and is preferably 1 / 5 to 1 / 3 of the effective tunnel clearance area. A variable-porosity entrance segment is designed. The pressure relief holes are filled with plasticine and sealed with a layer of PVA adhesive. Blocked holes can be removed to change the porosity at the entrance. The tunnel segments are made of polyethylene and connected by snap-fit connections. Different diameters, lengths, internal cross-sectional dimensions, and entrance buffer structures can be selected based on test requirements.
[0041] Specifically, the cross section of the track chute 11 is circular.
[0042] The model test is at a scale of 1 / 60, and the appearance of the train and tunnel is realistically simulated, which is a three-dimensional simulation.
[0043] The ultra-high-speed tunnel aerodynamic test system test platform is 100m long;
[0044] The total length of the launch device and the acceleration section 5011 of the track is 50m; the experimental section 5012 includes a 15m straight section of the entrance, a 15m tunnel section, and a 10m transition section 5013; the recovery buffer section is 10m long;
[0045] Model train marshaling: 4-car train, with a single car length of 25000mm based on CRH400B, and a single car length of 0.42m after scale reduction, and a test speed of ≥600km / h;
[0046] Pressure sensors and anemometers in tunnel segments: To measure and analyze the propagation characteristics of pressure fluctuations in the tunnel, pressure sensors and anemometers are arranged on the tunnel wall along the length of the tunnel. They are bonded to the tunnel wall on both sides symmetrically, 0.4m above the top of the track. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, one pressure sensor is used as a pressure measuring point. The pressure measuring points are 2m apart and are numbered according to their distance from the left entrance of the tunnel.
[0047] The functions of each component, high-definition camera: placed on both sides of the tunnel entrance, with an inclination angle of 45 degrees to the tunnel axis, it records the aerodynamic effects before and after the train passes through the tunnel.
[0048] Laser speedometers: These are located at the tunnel entrance and exit to measure train speed before and after entering the tunnel. Microphones: B&K microphones are used to measure micro-pressure waves. These microphones are located 1m and 2m from the tunnel exit, at a 45° angle to the tunnel axis, to record the noise generated by the micro-pressure waves at the exit.
[0049] Industrial control computer: The control system sends commands to the command fuse to generate the firing control signal; the industrial control computer acquisition system is connected to the smoke generator, pressure and wind speed test component (pressure and wind speed sensor), and camera, and can complete measurement and calculation tasks such as data acquisition and image processing. It records the data and images of the train entering the tunnel, and the data acquisition records the pressure and noise of the train entering and exiting the tunnel, and realizes high-precision control of the entire system.
[0050] The combustion chamber is a device where propellant burns to generate high-pressure gas. Made of high-temperature resistant alloy, it consists of a diffuser, combustion chamber housing, flame tube, fuel nozzle, and ignition device. The propellant burns regularly within the chamber, releasing energy and producing high-pressure gas, which serves as the power source for the launcher.
[0051] Propellant is a type of chemical substance that can quickly produce a large amount of high-temperature, high-pressure gas when burned. The high-pressure gas generated instantly is used to propel the struts and accelerate the train.
[0052] The present invention controls various test components using an industrial control computer to measure various parameters generated by a model train passing through a tunnel at high speed. It can simulate and measure the propagation law of compression waves generated when a high-speed train passes through a tunnel at ultra-high speed, the size and variation of aerodynamic loads on the tunnel lining, and the propagation law and size of micro-pressure waves at the tunnel entrance, providing guidance for the development of my country's high-speed railways.
