Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of water conservancy and hydropower engineering, and specifically relates to an arrangement structure and a construction method for realizing water diversion and power generation at an opening of an old dam body. Background Art

[0002] At present, some hydropower stations built in the early stage have not set up special ecological flow discharge facilities, which in turn affects the downstream ecological base flow not meeting the standards. According to the current environmental protection requirements, it is necessary to renovate and expand the existing water conservancy projects with ecological needs and add ecological flow discharge facilities. In order to meet the requirements of releasing ecological flow and make the best use of the water resources of the river, the installation of water diversion power generation ecological units is preferred.

[0003] Conventional water diversion and power generation systems consist of water inlets, water diversion tunnels, and power plants. The water inlets are usually located inside the reservoir. Under the condition of ensuring the existing functions of the reservoir hub, the water level in the reservoir area is high and close to the normal water storage level. The water level in the reservoir cannot be lowered for a long time, which makes the design and construction of the water inlet difficult. The water diversion tunnel is arranged close to the edge of the reservoir, and water gushing may occur during the digging process, making the construction difficult. In addition, a cofferdam needs to be built inside the reservoir during the construction of the water inlet. The filling requirements of the cofferdam are high, the risk of flood control is high, and the project investment increases significantly.

[0004] Based on this, the inventor hopes to design a water diversion and power generation layout plan to solve the above problems without changing the existing functions of the reservoir hub. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned problems existing in the traditional technology and to provide an arrangement structure and a construction method for realizing water diversion and power generation at the opening of the old dam body.

[0006] In order to achieve the above technical objectives and the above technical effects, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions:

[0007] The present invention provides a layout structure for realizing water diversion and power generation at the opening of an old dam body, comprising a water retaining dam body, a water diversion flow channel, a water diversion inlet, a water diversion emergency gate, a water diversion pressure pipe, external concrete, a front gradient section of a volute, a concrete volute and an ecological unit plant; the water diversion flow channel is located below the dead water level of the upper reservoir area, and the water diversion flow channel is transformed from the opening of the water retaining dam body serving as a hub; the water diversion inlet is located at the rear side of the water retaining dam body and is arranged in combination with the water retaining dam body; the water diversion emergency gate is located in the gate groove of the water diversion inlet; the water diversion pressure pipe is located between the water diversion inlet and the ecological unit plant, and external concrete is arranged around the pipe of the water diversion pressure pipe; the front gradient section of the volute is located between the end of the water diversion pressure pipe and the concrete volute of the unit, and the water flow flows smoothly into the concrete volute through the front gradient section of the volute; the ecological unit plant is located at the rear side of the water retaining dam body.

[0008] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned arrangement structure for realizing water diversion and power generation at the opening of the old dam body, the water diversion channel is the same length as the water retaining dam body, which is 6 to 10 meters long; the water diversion channel is a concrete lining structure.

[0009] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned arrangement structure for realizing water diversion and power generation at the opening of the old dam body, the water diversion channel is composed of a bell-mouth section and a standard section in the direction of water flow, a fixed trash rack is arranged at the front edge of the bell-mouth, the size of the bell-mouth opening meets the flow velocity requirement through the rack (V≤1m / s), and a water diversion inlet is arranged at the end of the standard section.

[0010] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned arrangement structure for realizing water diversion and power generation at the opening of the old dam body, a water-swelling waterstop strip is arranged between the water diversion channel and the concrete construction joint of the retaining dam body, a copper waterstop is arranged between the water diversion channel and the water diversion inlet structure joint, and the lining is subjected to joint grouting and the top arch range is subjected to backfill grouting.

[0011] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned arrangement structure for realizing water diversion and power generation at the opening of the old dam body, the water-stopping type of the water diversion emergency gate is a front water-stopping type that enables the water diversion inlet to withstand a smaller water pressure.

[0012] The present invention also provides a construction method for realizing water diversion and power generation at the opening of the old dam body, which is realized based on the above arrangement structure and includes the following steps:

[0013] S1. According to the design of the fully pressurized ecological discharge tunnel, determine the elevation A1 (m) of the bottom plate of the water diversion channel;

[0014] S2. Carry out foundation pit excavation, concrete pouring of ecological unit plant, installation of water diversion pressure pipeline and outsourcing concrete construction of pressure pipeline;

[0015] S3. After the outsourced concrete is poured to the elevation of the water inlet bottom plate, the water retaining dam body is partially excavated. A 2-3m concrete plug is reserved for the first-phase concrete excavation to ensure the safety of the dam during the flood season. After the flood season, the second-phase concrete excavation will be carried out on the concrete plug;

[0016] S4. After the first phase of concrete excavation is completed, the water inlet concrete pouring, the second phase of gate slot concrete pouring, and the emergency gate installation and commissioning are carried out behind the dam body to meet the reservoir water storage conditions;

[0017] S5. After the installation of the emergency gate at the water inlet is completed, the reservoir water level is lowered to below the bottom of the trash rack, and the remaining concrete plug of the dam body is excavated;

[0018] S6. After the dam is excavated and connected, the water diversion channel lining construction is carried out;

[0023] S11. Carry out installation work on the remaining civil engineering parts, units, and electromechanical equipment of the ecological unit.

[0024] Furthermore, in step S1, the specific method for determining the elevation A1 (m) of the water diversion channel bottom plate is:

[0025] 1) Under the conditions of the lowest operating water level H2 (m) and the maximum downstream ecological flow Q (m3 / s) in the reservoir area, the minimum submergence depth S (m) of the water inlet of the ecological flow discharge facility is determined by using the formula;

[0026] 2) According to the full pressurized flow design, determine the accident gate hole height d of the ecological flow discharge facility, the gate hole width b, and the average flow velocity (m / s) of the gate hole section;

[0027] 3) Determine the bottom plate elevation of the raw water channel A1=H2-Sd (m).

[0028] Furthermore, the coefficient C is taken as 0.55 when the water flow is symmetrical and positive, and is taken as 0.73 in other cases.

[0029] Furthermore, in step S2, since the power plant is located close to the dam, the following matters should be noted during the excavation of the power plant foundation pit:

[0030] 1) To ensure the integrity of the rock mass around the excavated foundation and the safety of adjacent buildings, hand-held pneumatic drills and shallow hole pre-splitting blasting technology are used for construction;

[0031] 2) During bedrock blasting, emphasis should be placed on strengthening the monitoring of the upstream curtain and dam body. The safe allowable blasting vibration speed of the curtain should not exceed 5.0 cm / s, and the safe allowable blasting vibration speed of the dam body concrete should not exceed 12.0 cm / s.

[0032] Furthermore, down-the-hole drills are used to excavate and remove the dam concrete. During construction, the monitoring of seepage around the dam and cracks in the dam body is strengthened. If necessary, grouting treatment is carried out on the cracks and damaged curtains.

[0033] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0034] 1. For the reconstruction and expansion of water conservancy projects with ecological flow requirements, the present invention uses a partial opening of the dam body to realize water diversion and power generation, which not only meets the ecological flow discharge requirements, but also realizes water diversion and power generation, fully utilizes the water energy resources of the river, and produces significant economic benefits to the society.

[0035] 2. The present invention adopts a water diversion scheme of partial opening of the dam body and a new water inlet behind the dam, which reduces the size of the opening of the dam body as much as possible and minimizes the adverse effects on the overall structural stability and safety of the dam body; the dam body is used to block water during construction, avoiding the risk of flooding during the construction period.

[0036] 3. The construction method adopted by the present invention can reduce the reservoir water level in a short time, so the water conservancy hub can make full use of water resources and guarantee the normal power generation of the old power station to the greatest extent.

[0037] 4. The present invention has been successfully applied in actual ecological unit projects, providing rich design experience for future old dam reconstruction and ecological flow unit program research.

[0038] Of course, any product implementing the present invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the above advantages at the same time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
