The centrifugal device 1 is used to perform a rotating centrifugal action, and the centrifugal device 1 works to generate a centrifugal force in the horizontal direction. The simulation unit 2 is detachably arranged on the centrifugal device 1. The simulation unit 2 comprises a cavity 21 and a plurality of wave units 22. The cavity 21 is recessed to one side to form a liquid storage cavity A. The wave units 22 are arranged on the cavity 21. The liquid storage cavity A is filled with simulation liquid. The wave units 22 are used to realize the fluctuation of the simulation liquid.

[0071] In the embodiment, the tsunami scene simulation machine comprises the centrifugal device 1 and the simulation unit 2. The centrifugal device 1 is used to generate a centrifugal force in the horizontal direction, and the simulation unit 2 arranged on the centrifugal device 1 is subjected to the centrifugal force in the horizontal direction. It can be understood that, in the embodiment, the gravity field is simulated by the centrifugal force, and by adjusting the centrifugal force of the centrifugal device 1, the simulation unit 2 can simulate different sizes of the gravity field, so that the device can better simulate the high-pressure environment of the ocean bottom.

[0072] The cavity 21 is arranged as a sealed cavity, and can be made of tempered glass or acrylic material, that is, the cavity 21 is arranged in a transparent form, so that the observation of the tsunami simulation process is facilitated.

[0073] The centrifugal force generated by the centrifugal device 1 is in the horizontal direction. Therefore, after the simulation unit 2 is arranged on the centrifugal device 1, the original gravity acceleration g is a constant gravity for the simulation unit 2. Since the gravity acceleration g is perpendicular to the direction of the centrifugal force, the acceleration generated by the centrifugal device 1 can be much higher than the gravity acceleration g. Therefore, the influence of the gravity acceleration on the simulation result can be basically ignored.

[0074] The simulation unit 2 comprises the cavity 21 and the plurality of wave units 22. The wave units 22 are used to realize the simulation of a plurality of cause-generated tsunamis, and are distributed on the cavity 21. The wave units 22 at different positions can independently perform corresponding tsunami simulation actions, so that the device can realize all-around simulation of the tsunami.

The simulation liquid may be heavy water, which is used to increase the density of the simulation liquid.

Both the seabed section 211 and the coast section 212 can be configured as uneven structures, and the vertical interface and the horizontal cross section of the cavity 21 are both set as trapezoids. The "waist" of the trapezoid is the coast section 212. The inclined coast section 212 can more closely simulate the continental shelf, thereby improving the simulation realism of the simulation device.

[0080] In this embodiment, the wave unit 22 includes a plurality of step forming parts 221, which are disposed on the seabed part 211 and / or the coast part 212.

[0082] Furthermore, since the step-forming part 221 is fully distributed on the cavity 21, the tsunami caused by the earthquake can be fully simulated.

[0083] In this embodiment, a groove B is provided on the cavity 21, and the step forming part 221 includes a slider 2211 and a telescopic drive member 2212. The slider 2211 is slidably connected to the groove B, and the telescopic drive member 2212 can be disposed on the centrifuge device 1 and is drivenly connected to the slider 2211, thereby driving the slider 2211 to rise and fall relative to the cavity 21.

[0084] In the embodiment, the step difference forming part 221 comprises a sliding block 2211 and a telescopic driving part 2212, the telescopic driving part 2212 drives the sliding block 2211 to perform telescopic action in the sliding groove B, and then forms a step difference on both sides of the sliding block 2211 relative to the cavity 21, so as to realize the simulation of the submarine earthquake.

[0085] Specifically, the telescopic driving part 2212 can be provided as a pneumatic cylinder, and the telescopic action is controlled by a pneumatic system, the pneumatic cylinder can be supplied with air through a general air path, and the reversing operation of the pneumatic cylinder is realized through a reversing valve.

[0086] More specifically, the telescopic driving part 2212 can be arranged on the rotating disc and run with the rotating disc, and since the telescopic driving part 2212 is provided as a pneumatic cylinder, the air path system is also arranged on the rotating disc, and after the air path system is arranged, additional counterweight operation is required to reduce the unbalanced torque when the rotating disc is running.

[0087] Meanwhile, the air path system comprises an air pump, which is provided as an electric pump body and can be powered in the form of a brush, that is, the power supply electrode is arranged in a ring shape on the rotating disc and coaxial with the rotating disc, and the power transmission is realized through the contact between the brush and the rotating disc.

[0088] The tsunami scene simulation machine further comprises a recording module 3, which can be arranged on the simulation unit 2 and used for recording the tsunami simulation process.

[0089] In the embodiment, the recording module 3 comprises a camera, which is used for multi-angle shooting of the cavity 21 and runs with the rotating disc.

[0090] Specifically, the camera can be arranged at the middle part of the rotating disc to monitor the cavity 21 along the radial direction of the rotating disc, and the camera can also be arranged at the side of the cavity 21 to monitor the cavity 21 along the circumferential direction of the rotating disc.

[0091] The recording module 3 can further comprise a pressure sensor, which can be arranged at the coast part 212 and used for interaction with the fluctuating simulation liquid, so as to detect the pressure value of the corresponding position and further enrich the detection data of the recording module 3.
