Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for testing the hydrodynamics of an ocean buoy. The method can utilize an ocean engineering water pool of limited size to complete the test simulation of the dynamic effect of the buoy and the instantaneous failure of the mooring system. Background Art

[0002] Model test is one of the important means to study actual marine engineering. The real marine environment is complex, and field tests are difficult and costly. The advantages of tank tests are lower cost and better simulation accuracy. When conducting model tests, it is usually necessary to scale down according to Froude similarity theory. For large offshore buoys, there are usually contradictory choices in the scale selection. If the scale is smaller, the experimental size of the buoys around the buoy is too small and the waterline ratio needs to be consistent. There is a significant size effect in the model experiment, and the small variables in the experiment will cause a large error in the result. If a larger scale is selected, the large harbor in the laboratory often does not meet the requirements in the depth direction. This is the main problem faced in the buoy model test. At present, the experimental research on deep-sea platforms mainly uses extremely small-scale models and conducts experiments in natural waters. When designing the truncation of the mooring system, it is mainly aimed at deep-sea floating structures. For large offshore buoys with buoys, there is a lack of truncation design experience. In order to obtain the parameters of the mooring system after truncation, it is necessary to consider factors such as mooring radius, anchor ring diameter, anchor chain stiffness, anchor chain weight and anchor point position at the same time, and the trial calculation work is cumbersome. At the same time, due to global warming and the increasing frequency of extreme climates in recent years, the problem of instantaneous breakage of mooring systems in extreme marine environments has become increasingly prominent. A test device and method for studying the instantaneous effect of mooring system breakage in the laboratory is needed, especially after considering the truncation design of the mooring system. Based on the above considerations, the present invention proposes a test method and device for studying the failure of buoy mooring systems under truncation design. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the problems existing in traditional deep-sea test research methods, such as inaccurate test results at extremely small scales, difficulty in simulating working conditions in natural waters, and cumbersome truncation design work, the present invention relates to a test method for studying the transient failure of a buoy mooring system under truncation design. In the truncation design, numerical simulation technology is used as a means, and the calculation of the stiffness curve and the initial iteration value are considered to ensure that the horizontal recovery stiffness of the mooring system and the tension of the main mooring line before and after the truncation have good consistency, which is not only conducive to ensuring the preset working conditions in a port with limited water depth, but also can ensure that the test results have high accuracy, and the transient failure analysis of the mooring system can be carried out during the hydrodynamic test process.

[0004] In order to achieve all the above purposes, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0005] A test method for studying instantaneous failure of a buoy mooring system based on a truncation design, wherein the buoy mooring system is a catenary mooring system. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, a truncation design of the buoy mooring system is performed to obtain basic parameters of the mooring system under the truncation water depth; then, the truncation is performed using similarity theory to obtain basic parameters of the mooring system under test conditions (including mooring line length, mooring radius, anchor ring diameter, anchor point position, anchor chain stiffness and anchor chain weight); the truncation design of the mooring system obtains initial values ​​of basic parameters of the mooring system through the empirical formula provided by the present invention, and then the parameters are adjusted through iterative calculation. Ultimately, it is ensured that the recovery characteristics of the mooring system at full water depth and cut-off water depth are consistent, that is, the horizontal restoring force of the mooring system and the tension of the main mooring line are consistent within the required movement range before and after cut-off; a test device is built based on the basic parameters of the mooring system under test conditions; the buoy mooring system in the test device is caused to break instantaneously, and the dynamic response results considering the instantaneous breaking effect of the mooring system are measured; since the cut-off design ensures the consistency of the recovery characteristics of the buoy mooring system, the dynamic response of the actual buoy mooring system is obtained after amplification by the similarity ratio, thereby realizing the instantaneous failure study of the actual buoy mooring system.

[0006] The test method can solve the problem that deep-sea mooring and submarine cables cannot be directly simulated on a reduced scale due to the limited size of the marine engineering water tank; the test device can conduct experimental research on the instantaneous failure of the buoy mooring system.

[0007] In the above technical solution, in the truncation design method, the truncation factor is calculated according to the water depth after truncation and the water depth before truncation, and the truncation factor is substituted into the following formula to calculate the initial values ​​of the mooring radius, anchor chain stiffness, anchor chain weight and anchor ring diameter:

[0008]

[0009] L 1 =(L 0 -L laid )·C'+L laid

[0010] EA 1 =EA 0 ·C'

[0011]

[0012]

[0013] Where C' is the cutoff factor, H 1 is the water depth after cutoff, H 0 Indicates the water depth before cutoff, L 1 is the mooring radius after truncation, L 0 is the anchor radius before truncation, L laidis the anchor chain lying length, EA 1 is the anchor chain stiffness after the stage, EA 0 is the anchor chain stiffness before truncation, M 1 is the weight of the anchor chain after truncation, M 0 is the weight of the anchor chain before cutting, d 1 is the diameter of the anchor ring after truncation, d 0 The diameter of the anchor ring before truncation;

[0014] By iterating the above initial values, the parameter values ​​of the basic parameters of the mooring system after truncation can be obtained, which can greatly reduce the trial calculation time.

[0015] Furthermore, through the Froude number similarity criterion, a scaled design is carried out on the basis of the truncated model to obtain the basic parameters of the mooring system under test conditions. Based on this, a test device is built, and the stiffness recovery characteristics of the mooring system and the platform motion response can be obtained in the test device.

[0016] Furthermore, the buoy mooring system adopts electromagnetic breaking, and the specific method is: the electromagnetic core and coil after power is supplied are used to connect the anchor chains at both ends, and when the mooring tension reaches a predetermined value, the mooring line is instantly broken by powering off.

[0018] The instantaneous anchor chain breaking device comprises an insulating shell, an insulating base and a power switch, wherein a stainless steel cylindrical shell is arranged inside the insulating shell, an electromagnet core and a coil are arranged on the insulating base, and the electromagnet core and the coil of the insulating base are inserted into the stainless steel cylindrical shell; the instantaneous anchor chain breaking device divides an anchor chain into two sections, the insulating base is connected to one end of the anchor chain through a tension sensor, and the other end is connected to the other end of the anchor chain through the insulating shell; the power switch is immediately turned off when the tension of the anchor chain reaches a predetermined value, and the tension sensor measures a dynamic response result considering the instantaneous breaking effect of the mooring system;

[0019] The variable anchor point structure is as follows: a circular groove is provided on the anchor plate, and a rotating disk is provided in the circular groove, and the rotating disk can rotate freely around the rotating bearing in the circular groove; the rotating disk is connected to the anchor plate through a rotating bearing; a sliding guide rail is provided on the rotating disk, and a bolt hole array is provided on the sliding guide rail, and a slider is provided in the sliding guide rail, and the slider is connected with a spring, and the spring is connected in series with the bottom of the anchor chain; the position of the slider is the anchor point position, and the anchor point position can be changed by adjusting the position of the slider.
