Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of hydrodynamic experimental technology, and in particular to a method, system and medium for rapid modeling of indoor pipeline structure models based on 3D printing technology. Background Art
[0002] Hydrodynamic experiments are an integral part of fluid dynamics research. Instruments and other experimental equipment are used to measure various physical parameters that characterize the flow of water or other liquids and their interactions with solid boundaries, and the measurement results are analyzed and processed to study the relationship between various parameters. It is difficult to control various parameters separately when conducting prototype experiments, and it is expensive and sometimes even impossible to conduct. For example, a water conservancy project or underwater vehicle has no experimental subjects before it is built. Later, hydrodynamic experiments were mostly conducted using models in specially designed laboratories or experimental fields. This is the so-called model experiment. The experimental model is generally smaller than the prototype, but there are also models that are equal to or larger than the prototype. The hydrodynamic model experiment is to study the functional relationship between a certain flow characteristic parameter of the fluid and the boundary shape parameter, fluid characteristic parameter, and force parameter.
[0003] The rainwater pipes entering the river are the key link in rainwater transportation, and their drainage capacity is crucial to the prevention and control of urban flooding. Urban rainstorms can simultaneously cause a sharp increase in upstream flow and a rapid rise in downstream river water levels, thereby forming hydraulic support and causing gas to gather in the rainwater pipes entering the river. In the field of urban rainwater pipes, current work at home and abroad mainly focuses on studying the siltation process in the pipes, the hydraulic influence of rainwater grate blockage, drainage capacity assessment methods, and pipeline optimization and expansion technologies. At present, research on the impact of sediments in rainwater pipes on flow capacity mainly focuses on the impact of factors such as the accumulated thickness of sediments in rainwater pipes, the rough thickness of sediment surfaces, and the slope of pipes on the flow capacity of rainwater pipes. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a method, system and medium for rapid modeling of indoor pipeline structure models based on 3D printing technology, which can conveniently and quickly establish a digital model that can be recognized by a 3D printer according to the model test size parameters, ensuring that the physical model of the tubular structure produced has a high degree of similarity with the prototype.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solutions:

A circular water outlet is reserved and designed on one side wall of the regulating water tank so as to be spliced with the subsequent pipeline model part. The size and shape parameters of the regulating water tank are used to generate an STL file of the model. The established STL file is divided into equal lengths and widths according to the plane scale of the regulating water tank model. After the division is completed, multiple STL files of the regulating water tank model blocks are generated, and the divided STL files are transmitted to the 3D printer for printing.
[0024] The step S5 is specifically as follows:
[0025] Firstly, the outer diameter R1, inner diameter R2, length L and slope P dimension data of the pipeline model are determined, and the model scale is 1:200. The two-dimensional coordinates of each controlling node on the boundary of the production range of the regulating water tank are added with the model bottom elevation D and the water tank flat top elevation M respectively, and the generated three-dimensional points are added to the replaced elevation data to form the integrated regulating water tank elevation data; secondly, inside the pipeline model, according to the requirements of the pipeline hydrodynamic test, a generalized model similar to the sediment body is set in the pipeline. According to the size of the sediment body, it is generalized into a sphere with a radius of r and embedded in the inner wall of the pipeline. The adjacent spacing of the generalized model of spherical sediment is set according to the test plan of the model.
[0026] The step S6 is specifically as follows:
[0027] The water depth of the water tank model is not less than 3 cm, and the model scale is 1:200. A circular water outlet is reserved and designed on one side wall of the water tank model so as to be spliced with the pipeline model. The size and shape parameters of the water tank model are used to generate an STL file of the model. The established STL file is divided into equal lengths and widths according to the plane scale of the adjustment water tank model. After the division is completed, multiple STL files of the adjustment water tank model blocks are generated, and the divided STL files are transmitted to the 3D printer for printing.

[0041] like Figure 1 A rapid modeling method for an indoor pipeline structure model based on 3D printing technology is shown, comprising the following steps:
[0042] S1. Collect the internal structure dimension data of the physical model of the indoor pipeline structure and remove outliers;
[0043] S2. Select the model making scope;
[0044] S3. The production of indoor pipeline structure models is divided into three parts, namely the production of regulating water tanks, the production of pipeline models and the production of sink models;

[0049] 1. Model data collection
[0050] According to the requirements of indoor pipeline hydrodynamic tests, the parameters of the tubular structure model to be manufactured are clarified, including the outer diameter R1, inner diameter R2, length L, slope P, etc. of the tubular structure. In addition, the size parameters of the generalized sedimentation body in the tubular structure need to be clarified, such as the radius r, number N, and spacing l between adjacent generalized sedimentation bodies.
[0051] 2. Outlier Removal
[0052] In the process of collecting model data, there will be some data anomalies. For example, due to human error and machine error, some data that is obviously different from the normal size of the tubular structure will be generated. In order to ensure the accuracy of the model, such data must be extracted from the basic data of the model making. The specific algorithm steps include:
[0053] Select the overall slope value of the tubular structure;

[0055] 3) During the physical model experiment of the indoor tubular structure, it is necessary to ensure that L1>L2, so it is necessary to eliminate the height H1 of the regulating water tank and the height H2 of the water tank that do not meet the water level H1, that is:
[0056] H1-L1≥0 and H2-L2≥0 data is retained
[0057] H1-L1<0 and H2-L2<0 data is retained
[0058] Repeat the above steps to eliminate all data outliers and form the model parameter data after elimination.

[0060] According to the model requirements of indoor pipeline hydrodynamic tests, the model making range is appropriately selected, including the water tank model and the sink model on both sides. The determination of the model making range should be based on ensuring that the model making range has no impact on the model test results.
[0061] 4. Making of regulating water tank
[0062] Under the premise that the water depth of the regulating water tank should not be less than 3cm, the model scale is determined to be 1:200 based on the maximum size that can be printed by the 3D printer. A circular water outlet is reserved on one side wall of the regulating water tank to facilitate splicing with the subsequent pipeline model. The size and shape parameters of the regulating water tank are used to generate the STL file of the model, and the established STL file is divided into equal lengths and widths according to the plane scale of the regulating water tank model. After the division is completed, multiple STL files of the regulating water tank model blocks are generated, and the divided STL files are transferred to the 3D printer for printing.
[0063] 5. Production of pipeline model
[0064] First, determine the dimensional data of the pipeline model, such as the outer diameter R1, inner diameter R2, length L and slope P, and determine the model scale to be 1:200 based on the maximum size that can be printed by the 3D printer. Add the two-dimensional coordinates of each controlling node on the boundary of the production range of the regulating water tank to the model bottom elevation D and the water tank flat top elevation M, and add the generated three-dimensional points to the replaced elevation data to form the integrated regulating water tank elevation data. Secondly, inside the pipeline model, according to the requirements of the pipeline hydrodynamic test, some generalized models similar to sediment bodies need to be set up in the pipeline. According to the size of the sediment body, it is generalized into a sphere (radius r) embedded in the inner wall of the pipeline. The adjacent spacing (l) of the generalized model of spherical sediment is set according to the test plan of the model.
[0065] 6. Making of the Sink Model
[0066] The water tank model is designed with a model scale of 1:200 based on the maximum size that can be printed by the 3D printer, under the premise that the water depth should not be less than 3 cm. A circular water outlet is reserved on one side of the water tank model to facilitate splicing with the pipe model. The size and shape parameters of the above water tank model are used to generate the STL file of the model, and the established STL file is divided into equal lengths and widths according to the plane scale of the adjustment water tank model. After the division is completed, multiple STL files of the adjustment water tank model blocks are generated, and the divided STL files are transferred to the 3D printer for printing.
