Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ventilation and dehumidification of a dam grouting gallery of a dam rear powerhouse project, and is suitable for ventilation and dehumidification of a dam rear powerhouse project or a dam grouting gallery where the dam and the powerhouse are arranged at similar positions. Background Art
[0002] Hydropower station dams are usually surrounded by the atmosphere, reservoir water, tailwater and rock mass, and have strong heat or cold storage capabilities, good thermal stability, small temperature variation and relatively humid characteristics. The temperature of the dam body depends on the changes in air and water temperatures. Practice has shown that the temperature changes of these two media are periodic changes, and their change characteristics conform to the law of cosine function. Since the dam body has a strong heat storage capacity, when the air and water temperatures transfer heat to the dam body, the temperature amplitude will be attenuated and the time delay will be formed. Considering that the corridors used by the ventilation and air-conditioning system are generally dam grouting corridors or maintenance corridors, which are all located deep in the dam body, the influence of atmospheric temperature changes on the wall temperature of the corridors in the dam body is generally not considered, and only the influence of water temperature changes on the wall temperature of the corridors in the dam body is considered.
[0003] Hydropower plant buildings generally use engineering construction tunnels or specially designed ventilation tunnels as air inlet ducts for plant ventilation. These ducts are generally very long, several hundred meters or even thousands of meters long, and the wind speed passing through them is not high; the outdoor air intake can reduce the annual and daily fluctuations of the incoming air temperature through heat exchange with the rock mass of the cave wall; when the air inlet duct is long enough and the heat exchange is sufficient, the daily fluctuation of the air entering the room can be close to zero; when designing ventilation and air conditioning, it is necessary to fully consider the regulating effect of the underground air inlet duct on the incoming air temperature, so that the design capacity of the plant ventilation and air conditioning system is more in line with the actual situation, avoiding the waste of excessive design capacity of the ventilation and air conditioning system, which is of significance for saving energy and protecting the environment, and has practical significance for my country's sustainable development strategy.
[0004] The dam grouting gallery is buried deep, and the grouting gallery can be used as the air inlet channel of the hydropower plant. However, the moisture problem of the dam grouting gallery has always been a common and difficult problem in water conservancy and hydropower projects. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the main structures of the dam rear powerhouse project include the dam A and the dam rear powerhouse 3. The dam grouting corridor 1 is located at a certain depth of the dam A. According to the total length of the dam, several stairwells 2 are arranged down to the grouting corridor. A stairwell smoke-proof fan room 4 is arranged at the dam top B. The powerhouse 3 is placed at a certain distance and depth downstream of the dam.
[0005] In actual projects, the grouting corridors of dams are often not used as air inlets for plant ventilation due to various reasons, such as the moisture in the grouting corridors themselves and the potential safety hazards of flooded plant buildings. To solve this problem, it is first necessary to work closely with civil engineering and other professionals to eliminate or minimize the source of moisture in the grouting corridors. Secondly, the HVAC professionals need to design the ventilation and dehumidification system of the grouting corridors themselves, improve the air quality in the corridors, and reasonably use the grouting corridors to form air inlets for plant ventilation. Using the grouting corridors of dams as air inlets for the ventilation of hydropower plant buildings, the ventilation and dehumidification of the grouting corridors of dams have become issues that need to be urgently addressed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the invention clearer, the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] The ventilation and dehumidification method for the dam grouting gallery of the present invention is suitable for ventilation and dehumidification of a dam grouting gallery in a powerhouse project behind a dam or a dam where the dam and the powerhouse are arranged in close proximity. At the same time, the present invention uses the dam grouting gallery as an air inlet channel for a hydropower station powerhouse.
[0033] Figure 1 This is the axonometric diagram of the ventilation and dehumidification system of the dam grouting gallery of the dam rear powerhouse project, in which the ventilation system of powerhouse 3 is omitted; Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional view of the powerhouse project behind the dam, in which the connecting corridor between the dam grouting corridor 1 and the powerhouse 3 is omitted.
[0034] In the present invention, the plant 3 has a ventilation system, so that the plant 3 forms a certain negative pressure, which is conducive to the air flowing into the plant 3 through the dam grouting gallery 1.
[0035] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the ventilation and dehumidification system of the dam grouting gallery of the rear-dam powerhouse project includes a grouting gallery 1, a dam stairwell 2, a powerhouse 3, a smoke-proof fan room 4, a connecting gallery 5 from the grouting gallery 1 to the hydropower plant building 3, a plurality of natural ventilation buried pipes 6, pressurized air supply buried pipes 7, a pressurized air supply fan 8, a first fire damper 9, a second fire damper 10, an electric safety door 11, a dehumidifier 12, a linkage electric air valve 13, and a sensor 14.
[0036] The dam grouting gallery 1 is arranged in the dam body A upstream of the hydropower plant building 3. A staircase 2 is set according to the total length of the dam. Through the staircase 2, one can go down from the dam top platform B to the grouting gallery 1. The dam top platform B is higher than the upstream water level D, and the hydropower plant building 3 is higher than the tailwater platform C and the downstream water level E.
[0037] The smoke-proof fan room 4 is arranged on the dam top platform B, near the stairwell, and is used for smoke prevention in the stairwell; the connecting corridor 5 is located between the plant 3 and the dam grouting corridor 1, connecting the plant 3 and the dam grouting corridor 1, and the connection between the connecting corridor 5 and the grouting corridor 1 is located in the middle or upper part of the grouting corridor; the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 is a steel pipe, which is distributed longitudinally along the dam grouting corridor 1, and the distance between every two natural ventilation buried pipes 6 is determined according to the pipe diameter and the actual project situation; the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 extends vertically downward from the dam top to the grouting corridor 1, and the top of the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 is located above the dam top and connected to the atmosphere, and the natural ventilation buried pipe The top of 6 is bent to form a rainproof elbow structure. Even if it rains, too much rainwater will not be introduced into the grouting gallery 1, reducing the impact of weather conditions on the ventilation of the grouting gallery; the top of the natural ventilation buried pipe serves as the air inlet of the grouting gallery 1. After cooling and dehumidifying in the grouting gallery 1, the air flows to the relatively negative pressure plant 3; the bottom of the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 extends to the interior of the grouting gallery 1, and the bottom end of the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 is located in the upper or middle part of the grouting gallery 1; in addition, the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 can be replaced by a natural ventilation shaft. The selection of the buried pipe scheme is not limited by factors such as the aesthetics of the dam top building and spatial conditions, and is easy to implement.
[0038] The buried pipe 7 for pressurized air supply is a steel pipe. The buried pipe 7 for pressurized air supply is connected to the pressurized air supply fan 8 at the place where it comes out of the ground. The outlet section of the pressurized air supply fan 8 is provided with an electric air valve 13 linked with the fan. The buried pipe 7 for pressurized air supply and the fan 8 are both located in the smoke-proof fan room 4; Figure 1 As shown, the buried pressurized air supply pipe 7 extends vertically downward from the smoke proof air machine room 4 close to the outer wall of the stairwell 2 to the grouting corridor 1; a plurality of branch pipes are arranged at intervals of the buried pressurized air supply pipe 7 close to the outer wall of the stairwell, specifically, a branch pipe is arranged at every two to three floors, each branch pipe passes through the wall of the stairwell and extends to the inside of the stairwell, and a second fire damper 10 is arranged at the end of each branch pipe, and the second fire damper 10 is a 70°C normally closed electric fire damper; a first fire damper 9 is arranged at the end of the buried pressurized air supply pipe 7 extending to the grouting corridor 1, and the first fire damper 9 is a 70°C normally open electric fire damper; the normally open or normally closed electric fire dampers can be remotely controlled to open and close.
[0039] A normally open electric safety door 11 is provided at one end of the connecting corridor 5 close to the factory building 3 . The connecting corridor 5 is connected with the factory building 3 through the electric safety door 11 . The connecting corridor 5 is a civil construction passage between the grouting corridor 1 and the factory building 3 .
[0040] An air humidity sensor 14 is arranged in the grouting gallery 1, specifically, near the connection between the grouting gallery 1 and the connecting gallery 5; the bracket is fixed to the wall of the connecting gallery 5 by expansion bolts, and the air humidity sensor 14 is fixed at the connection between the connecting gallery 5 and the grouting gallery 1 by the bracket. The air humidity value detected by the sensor 14 is used as a judgment condition for whether the pressurized air supply fan 8 performs mechanical air supply to the grouting gallery 1.
[0041] A mobile dehumidifier 12 is placed in the grouting gallery 1. The dehumidifier 12 is distributed longitudinally in the grouting gallery of the dam. The dehumidifier 12 is automatically turned on and off according to the set humidity limit. When the relative humidity of the air in the grouting gallery is higher than the set high value, the dehumidifier is automatically turned on, and when it is lower than the set low value, the dehumidifier 12 is automatically turned off, so as to maintain the air humidity in the grouting gallery within a certain range so as not to be too high and reduce the operating energy consumption; the condensed water of the dehumidifier 12 is discharged to the grouting gallery drainage ditch nearby.
[0042] The present invention can realize three ventilation operation conditions: first, when the ventilation of the grouting gallery 1 and the ventilation of the plant 3 are jointly operated, that is, the normally open electric safety door 11 is opened, and when the air humidity sensor 14 monitors that the humidity is higher than the set high value, the pressurized air supply fan 8 and its linked air valve 13 are closed through the automatic control system, and the mechanical air supply through the dam grouting gallery 1 is stopped. Only natural air intake is carried out through the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 from the grouting gallery 1 to the dam top B. The outdoor air enters the gallery through the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 and then enters the slightly negative pressure plant 3; second, when the ventilation of the grouting gallery 1 and the ventilation of the plant 3 are jointly operated, that is, the normally open electric safety door 11 is opened, and when the air humidity sensor 14 monitors that the humidity is lower than the set bottom value, the pressurized air supply is turned on through the automatic control system. The fan 8 and its linked air valve 13 mechanically supply air to the dam grouting gallery 1 through the pressurized air supply buried pipe 7, thereby strengthening the ventilation of the grouting gallery. The outdoor air simultaneously enters the gallery through the natural ventilation buried pipe 6 and the pressurized air supply buried pipe 7, and then enters the slightly negative pressure factory building 3; thirdly, when the grouting gallery ventilation and the factory building ventilation system operate independently, that is, when the normally open electric safety door 11 is closed, the pressurized air supply fan 8 and its linked air valve 13 in the stairwell are opened, and the pressurized air supply buried pipe 7 mechanically supplies air to the dam grouting gallery 1, thereby strengthening the ventilation of the grouting gallery 1. The natural ventilation buried pipe 6 serves as an exhaust channel or a balance channel of the ventilation system of the grouting gallery 1; in the above three ventilation operating conditions, the mobile dehumidifier 12 in the grouting gallery operates independently according to the set value.
[0043] The electric safety door 11 is in a normally open state. The opening and closing of the electric safety door 11 can be remotely controlled in the control room, or the electric safety door 11 can be manually opened and closed in the hydropower plant building 3; when the dam or the connecting corridor 5 is leaking, the electric safety door 11 can be closed.
[0044] In the ventilation system described in the present invention, when the air humidity sensor 14 monitors that the humidity is lower than the set bottom value, the pressurized air supply fan 8 and its linked air valve 13 are turned on through the automatic control system, and the pressurized air supply buried pipe 7 is used to mechanically supply air to the dam grouting gallery 1 to enhance the ventilation effect of the grouting gallery 1; when the air humidity sensor 14 monitors that the humidity is higher than the set high value, the pressurized air supply fan 8 and its linked air valve 13 are turned off, and the mechanical air supply to the dam grouting gallery 1 is stopped.
[0045] The pressurized air supply fan 8 and the pressurized air supply buried pipe 7 on the dam are not often used but must be installed due to fire protection requirements; the present invention uses the pressurized air supply system that is not often used for ventilation of the grouting gallery 1 and the factory building 3, reducing the fresh air energy consumption of the factory building ventilation and air-conditioning system.
