Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydraulic equipment technology, and in particular to a variable-structure island fishway hydraulic characteristic testing device and testing method. Background Technology

[0002] Migratory fishes exhibit a habit of periodically migrating to different aquatic spaces to fulfill their life functions, including reproduction, foraging, and overwintering. Changes in the natural river ecosystem caused by water conservancy projects inevitably have adverse effects on the lives and reproduction of fish upstream and downstream. If fish migration is delayed or terminated, it could even lead to the extinction of some fish species, seriously endangering biodiversity.

[0003] Fishways, short for fish migration channels, are used to help migratory fish overcome obstacles such as weirs, locks, pumping stations, and rapids during their migration. They are an important measure to solve the problem of man-made hydraulic structures hindering fish migration and can play an important role in protecting the ecological environment.

[0004] Currently, traditional fishways typically have fixed structures, and the adaptability of a single-structure fishway to rivers is clearly difficult to guarantee. Many hydraulic engineering projects operate in complex river environments, ranging from rivers affected by rainfall and landslides to sections with tidal characteristics, significantly altering the operating environment of the fishway. Therefore, traditional fishways cannot adapt to these changing spatiotemporal characteristics, making it difficult to maximize their functionality. Furthermore, currently widely used fishway simulation experimental devices are often fixed fishways. Fixed fishway testing devices typically use baffles arranged in a specific configuration within a water tank to achieve model testing. One model usually corresponds to only one set of structural parameters, resulting in high production costs and low testing efficiency. Differences in fishway structure and operating parameters can affect the success rate of fish migration, and these differences need to be considered in experimental testing. Therefore, for practical engineering and experimental testing, researching a fishway with a flexibly adjustable structure is an urgent technical problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

This fishway has advantages such as good energy dissipation effect and flexible structure, which can further improve fish passage efficiency while minimizing costs. This invention modifies the traditional baffle fishway by replacing the original traditional baffle with a bent petal structure, and uses different water-blocking islands for water blocking and energy dissipation. This invention uses a top-buckle method to install the petal structure in the fishway chamber, facilitating the replacement of its petal components. The water-blocking islands are fixed to the fishway chamber with bolts on the bottom surface of the main base plate; this structural design facilitates the replacement of the water-blocking islands. The special design of this invention allows for complete disassembly of the overall structure, achieving an adjustable structure, facilitating modification and subsequent maintenance.

The height of the left lobe 1-6 and the right lobe 1-7 is slightly lower than the height of the island-type fishway 1. The upper part of the left lobe 1-6 and the right lobe 1-7 is provided with a protrusion to fit into the notch of the top buckle groove 1-14 to fix their position.

[0066] The hydraulic characteristic testing device for an island-type fishway with a variable structure disclosed in this application is installed as follows: the island-type fishway 1 is placed on an island-type fishway platform 6, with an inclination pad 8 installed to adjust the test slope. The upstream water tank 4 is placed on an upstream water tank platform 7, which is a liftable platform to accommodate slope changes caused by changes in the angle of the island-type fishway 1. The connection between the upstream water tank 4 and the island-type fishway 1 is achieved by inserting the outer extension 4-1 of the upstream water tank 4 into the interior of the upstream section of the island-type fishway 1. A grass mat can be placed at the internal connection point for a smooth transition. The outer extension 4-1 has a groove for installing a sealing strip 4-4 to prevent leakage at the connection between the upstream water tank 4 and the island-type fishway 1. A flow rectifier 4-3 is placed on the inner extension 4-2 of the fishway to reduce turbulence in the test water flow. The downstream section of the island-type fishway 1 is directly inserted into the fishway connection opening 5-1 of the downstream water tank 5 to facilitate the discharge of water from the downstream section of the island-type fishway 1. The upstream and downstream water circulation is achieved by connecting the downstream water tank outlet 5-2, the centrifugal pump 9, and the upstream water tank outlet 4-5 through the connecting pipe 11, and the flow rate is observed through the flow meter 10 connected in between.

[0067] The specific connection method of the island-style fishway 1 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the lower ends of the left side plate 1-2 and the right side plate 1-3 are placed in the grooves on both sides of the main base plate 1-1. A waterproof strip 1-11 is placed inside the grooves connecting the left side plate 1-2, the right side plate 1-3, and the main base plate. Then, the left and right side plates (left side plate 1-2, right side plate 1-3) and the waterproof strip 1-11 are fastened through the side plate fixing thread holes 1-10 on the side of the main base plate 1-1. The left petal 1-6 is fitted with the left top buckle 1-4, and the right petal 1-7 is fitted with the right top buckle 1-5, and they are installed on the side plate protrusions 1-12 of the left and right side plates in an alternating manner. The water-blocking island 1-8 is positioned by bolting through the water-blocking island fixing thread 1-17 at the bottom of the main base plate 1-1. When not in use, the remaining water-blocking island fixing threads 1-17 are sealed with bolts and raw rubber to prevent water leakage.

[0068] The chamber measuring plate 2 is installed on the upper part of the left and right side plates of the island-type fishway 1, and the long protrusion 2-1 of the chamber measuring plate is installed on the side plate protrusions 1-12 of the left and right side plates. The inflow measuring plate 3 is installed on the inflow measuring plate positioning grooves 1-13 of the left and right side plates through the short protrusion 3-2 of the inflow measuring plate positioning. The left and right side plates and the chamber measuring plate 2, etc., can be marked with water level gauges and positioning point numbers as needed.

[0069] A test method for a test device for the hydraulic characteristics of an island-type fishway with a variable structure includes the following steps:

[0070] (1) The flow conditions and slope conditions are adjusted by the cooperation of the tilting pad 8, the centrifugal pump 9 and the flow meter 10. At least two flow rates and two slopes are selected to form four basic working conditions. The flow rate is adjusted by the centrifugal pump 9, while the slope can be changed by the tilting pad 8.

[0071] (2) Under each basic working condition, further determine different structural parameter settings, and select one set of structural parameters as the control group; for example, select 1-8 without water blocking island as the control group, and use 1 / 2 arc for left lobe 1-6 and right lobe 1-7.

[0072] (3) Determine the structural parameters that need to be changed as factors and determine the level of each factor. Use orthogonal experimental design to obtain the desired analytical data within a limited number of experiments; specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the factors can include the shape of the water-blocking island 1-8, the distance L from the water-blocking island 1-8 to the left lobe 1-6 or the right lobe 1-7, the arc length of the left lobe 1-6 and the right lobe 1-7, and the placement angle α of the water-blocking island 1-8. Each factor has three levels: the left lobe 1-6 or the right lobe 1-7 is a 1 / 2 arc, a 3 / 8 arc, and a 1 / 4 arc; the shape of the water-blocking island 1-8 can be rectangular, circular, or teardrop-shaped; and the orthogonal array uses a four-factor, three-level orthogonal array L9.3.4. L can be any value among 3d, 4d, and 5d, the placement angle α of the water-blocking island can be any value among -40°, 0°, and 40°, and the arc radius is 2d.

[0073] (4) Read the inlet flow rate from the flow meter 10 and verify it in combination with the data measured by the inlet measuring plate 3; for the orthogonal experimental group, the flow velocity of the pool chamber is measured by the flow meter, while the water depth along the flow path is measured by the water level meter. At the same time, other target parameters can also be measured by different instruments.

[0074] (5) Use SPSS to analyze the structural parameters that have a significant impact on the target, and then conduct comparative experiments in multiple groups, such as the selected control group, the low flow velocity group, and the high water level group. Conduct detailed experiments in the form of point measurements to obtain indicators such as pool flow pattern, flow velocity distribution area ratio, and specific water depth for comparative analysis.

[0075] The above methods allow for a more comprehensive analysis of island fishways, facilitating further exploration of the impact of structural parameter changes on hydraulic characteristics and subsequent discussions on how to utilize structural parameter adjustments to address changes in the aquatic environment.

[0076] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
