Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of material impact crushing, and in particular to an expansion ring test device and a test method thereof based on carbon dioxide phase change. Background Art

[0002] As a research focus of solid mechanics, the impact crushing of brittle materials has been widely used in many key fields such as mining, blasting, geotechnical engineering, aerospace and materials engineering. The expansion ring test has a simple structure and sufficient theoretical basis, and is the main method for studying the impact crushing characteristics of brittle materials. At present, the expansion ring test under impact loading mainly includes electromagnetic expansion ring, explosive expansion ring, hydraulic expansion ring and other types; among them, the electromagnetic expansion ring uses the Lorentz force as the driving force, and can accurately control the expansion strain rate. However, the prerequisite of this test method is that the expansion ring material needs to have good conductivity. The thermal softening effect generated by the large current during the driving process will significantly change the mechanical properties of the expansion ring, making it difficult for the test results to truly reflect the dynamic behavior of the material at room temperature, and the expansion strain rate that can be achieved is low, which is difficult to apply to materials with low conductivity such as rocks and ceramics.

[0003] The explosive expansion ring uses the shock wave generated by the explosive as the driving force, which can easily achieve a high strain rate expansion, and has no special requirements for the conductivity and other physical properties of the expansion ring material, which increases the applicability of the expansion ring test. At the same time, since the energy is released quickly and concentratedly during the explosion, the temperature rise phenomenon is not obvious, which reduces the interference of thermal effects on the test results. However, the propagation characteristics of the shock wave may affect the one-dimensional stress state of the expansion ring test, causing the test results to deviate from the theoretical model. In addition, the uncertainty of the explosion process increases the difficulty of precise control of the strain rate, which affects the repeatability and reliability of the test results. In addition, explosion tests usually involve the approval, storage, transportation, use and post-test safety handling of explosives, which increases the cost and complexity of the test and is difficult to promote to civilian scientific research institutions.

[0004] The hydraulic expansion ring utilizes the nearly incompressible physical property of liquid. By quickly impacting the piston from the outside, the liquid in the piston cylinder expands at a high speed in a short period of time, achieving dynamic tensile fracture of the expansion ring, so that the strain rate level it can reach is relatively low. The flow and pressure transmission of hydraulic pressure in the pipeline requires a certain amount of time, resulting in a relatively slow loading response speed of the hydraulic system, which is not suitable for the application requirements of expansion rings in medium and high strain rates. Summary of the invention

[0005] One of the purposes of the present application is to provide an expansion ring test device and a test method based on carbon dioxide phase change.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0041] Example:

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 , with reference Figures 2 to 5The present application provides an expansion ring test device based on carbon dioxide phase change, which mainly includes a support seat 1, a confining pressure loading structure, a driving cylinder 2, a carbon dioxide filling tube 3, an expansion ring sample 4 and a monitoring component; wherein the driving cylinder 2 is installed on the support seat 1; at the same time, the expansion ring sample 4 is sleeved on the driving cylinder 2 and is in the inner cavity of the confining pressure loading structure; in addition, the confining pressure loading structure is sleeved on the driving cylinder 2, and is used to apply confining pressure to the surrounding of the driving cylinder 2; and the carbon dioxide filling tube 3 is sealed in the inner cavity of the driving cylinder 2, and the outer side of the carbon dioxide filling tube 3 is close to the inner side of the driving cylinder 2, and it is ensured that the carbon dioxide filling tube 3, the expansion ring sample 4 and the driving cylinder 2 are coaxially arranged, reducing the test error caused by the introduction of non-axial force or torque, and heating the carbon dioxide filling tube 3 to generate a shock wave that expands and breaks the expansion ring sample 4. In addition, the expansion ring sample 4 can be freely made of materials of different types and properties according to research needs, which broadens the range of materials for experimental research. In addition, the monitoring component is used to monitor the test process of the expansion ring sample 4.

[0043] Furthermore, a positioning groove with an upward opening and a threaded inner wall is provided on the support seat 1, and the lower end of the driving cylinder 2 is threadedly connected to the positioning groove. A lower end cover 5 is provided on the inner bottom plate of the positioning groove, the bottom end of the driving cylinder 2 abuts against the lower end cover 5, and an upper end cover 6 is provided on the top cover.

[0044] It should be noted that the support seat 1 can be made of low-elongation, high-strength steel materials, such as alloy steel, high-carbon steel and stainless steel, which can have little change in length or shape under long-term use or under heavy loads, which helps to maintain the geometric accuracy and stability of the support seat 1.

[0045] Furthermore, a lower sealing cover 7 is sealed and installed on the bottom opening of the driving cylinder 2, and an upper sealing cover 8 is sealed and installed on the top opening; the carbon dioxide filling tube 3 is arranged between the upper sealing cover 8 and the lower sealing cover 7. In addition, the carbon dioxide filling tube 3 includes a tube body 9, a heating tube 10 and an electric lead 11; the heating tube 10 is detachably arranged in the inner cavity of the tube body 9, and the heating tube 10 is filled with a carbon dioxide heating agent 12; the cavity of the tube body 9 is filled with liquid carbon dioxide 13; one end of the electric lead 11 extends into the heating tube 10, and an electric ignition head 14 is arranged on the end. During the test, the electric lead 11 is connected to the power supply, and the electric ignition head 14 acts on the carbon dioxide heating agent 12. The carbon dioxide heating agent 12 generates heat and transfers the heat to the liquid carbon dioxide 13 through the heating tube 10. The liquid carbon dioxide 13 absorbs a certain amount of heat and instantly vaporizes, generating an impact force to achieve the expansion and crushing of the expansion ring sample 4. After the test, the power supply is cut off in time.

[0046] By controlling the dosage of the carbon dioxide heating agent 12, the phase change temperature of the supercritical carbon dioxide can be controlled, different gas pressure loading can be achieved, and different expansion rate loading can be further achieved. By controlling the heating rate and loading amount of carbon dioxide, different gas pressures and different pressure increase rates can be achieved, and different expansion rates can be further obtained, and the potential interference of the complex electromagnetic field environment on the experimental results can be avoided, the range of applicable test materials can be expanded, the experimental equipment can be simplified, and energy consumption can be reduced; by controlling the heating rate and loading amount of carbon dioxide, the safety and controllability of the experimental process can be significantly improved, and the harm of the shock wave and fragments generated by the explosion to the experimental equipment and the surrounding environment can be reduced; it can achieve the effect of higher response speed and pressure regulation accuracy by controlling the dosage of the carbon dioxide heating agent 12 and the amount of liquid carbon dioxide 13, and can more accurately simulate the crushing behavior of the expansion ring sample 4 under dynamic loading conditions, and realize expansion tests of different pressures by controlling the heating rate and loading amount of carbon dioxide. Therefore, it uses the expansion force caused by the carbon dioxide phase change technology to perform a dynamic expansion test on the expansion ring sample 4, which can more realistically simulate the dynamic tensile failure of the material in the deep environment, and thus make the test results more real and reliable.

[0047] It should be noted that the phase change temperature (i.e., critical temperature) is fixed under standard conditions (about 31.1°C), but in fact, this critical temperature is not directly adjusted. Instead, the intensity of the phase change process and the generated gas pressure are controlled by controlling the filling amount of liquid carbon dioxide 13 and the dosage (heating rate) of the carbon dioxide heating agent 12. In this way, the magnitude and speed of change of the force acting on the expansion ring sample 4 can be flexibly adjusted to achieve different strain rate loading. Therefore, the device and experimental method in this application are applicable to expansion ring samples 4 of different materials. Whether it is metal, plastic or other materials, as long as they can withstand certain pressure and deformation, they can be studied by adjusting the strain rate, that is, they can be experimentally studied by the device and experimental method in this application.

[0048] It should be noted that the drive tube 2 is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant stainless steel or alloy steel so that it can be kept intact as much as possible during the test, and the outer diameter of the drive tube 2 is 49-52mm, the inner diameter is 46-49mm, and the height is 10cm. In addition, the acoustic impedance of the drive tube 2 is the same as that of the expansion ring sample 4. The acoustic impedance characteristics of the drive tube 2 material are adjusted by heat treatment, surface treatment or chemical treatment to make its acoustic impedance closer to the acoustic impedance of the expansion ring sample 4; optimize the contact interface between the drive tube 2 and the expansion ring sample 4 to ensure that the two are closely fitted and reduce the influence of air gaps or impurities on the transmission of sound waves; ensure that the drive tube 2 and the expansion ring sample 4 are accurately matched in thickness to reduce the sound wave scattering and energy loss caused by size differences, reduce the reflection and energy loss of shock waves at the interface between the drive tube 2 and the expansion ring sample 4, so that the driving energy can be efficiently transferred to the expansion ring sample 4, thereby inducing and maintaining the one-dimensional stress state of the expansion ring sample 4.

[0049] After inserting the driving cylinder 2 into the positioning groove in the center of the support seat 1, the driving ring cylinder is firmly locked through the positioning groove to prevent it from falling off; the outer diameter of the driving cylinder 2 is close to the inner side of the expansion ring sample 4, and the lower sealing cover 7 and the upper sealing cover 8 are respectively installed on the upper and lower ends of the carbon dioxide filling tube 3, and the upper end cover 6 and the lower end cover 5 are respectively installed on the upper and lower ends of the driving cylinder 2 to reduce the leakage of carbon dioxide gas.

[0050] In addition, the confining pressure loading structure includes a confining pressure chamber 15; the confining pressure chamber 15 is a pressure vessel made of high-strength alloy steel, and a cover plate 20 is provided on the confining pressure chamber 15. The confining pressure chamber 15 is sleeved on the driving cylinder 2, and a water pump 16 is provided at the lower part of one side, and the water pump 16 is connected to a high-frequency response water transmission pipeline 17, and the water outlet of the high-frequency response water transmission pipeline 17 is connected to the inner cavity of the confining pressure loading structure; an observation window 18 is provided in the middle of one side of the confining pressure chamber 15, and a high-speed camera is arranged above the observation window 18 to observe the expansion and crushing of the expansion ring sample 4. During the test, the cover plate 20 of the confining pressure chamber 15 is opened to place the expansion ring sample 4, the driving cylinder 2 and the carbon dioxide filling tube 3; the inner diameter of the confining pressure chamber 15 is larger than the outer diameter of the expansion ring sample 4, so as to provide space for the expansion and crushing of the expansion ring sample 4. The confining pressure chamber 15 applies uniform stress to the expansion ring sample 4 through the water pump 16 and the high-frequency response water transmission pipeline 17, which can reach up to 20MPa. A sealing ring is provided at the connection between the confining pressure chamber 15 and the water pump 16. The water pump 16 is started and the pressure is gradually increased to make the pressure in the confining pressure chamber 15 reach a preset value.

[0051] Therefore, through the initial static loading mode of the confining pressure loading structure, a uniform and controllable static confining pressure is applied around the expansion ring sample 4 to simulate the ground stress environment of deep rock and other materials, so that the test results are more real and reliable.

[0052] It should be noted that the outer diameter of the expansion ring sample 4 is 52-55 mm, the inner diameter is 49-52 mm, and the height is 1.5-2 mm. Due to its structural characteristics, the expansion ring sample 4 has no end effect, and when the expansion ring sample 4 is thin, it maintains a nearly one-dimensional stress state during the expansion process.

[0053] In addition, the monitoring component includes a full-digital dynamic servo sensor, a high-speed camera, a laser velocimeter, a plurality of strain gauges 19 and a computer; wherein the full-digital dynamic servo sensor is arranged in the confining pressure loading structure to complete the loading of the confining pressure required for the test and dynamically regulate the confining pressure changes caused by the deformation of the expansion ring sample 4 during the experiment; at the same time, the high-speed camera is arranged on the confining pressure chamber 15 and is located above the observation window 18, which is used to shoot the dynamic fragmentation process of the expansion ring sample 4; in addition, the laser velocimeter is arranged in the confining pressure loading structure and is aligned with the axial center position of the expansion ring sample 4, which is used to measure the radial expansion speed of the expansion ring sample 4; and, a plurality of strain gauges 19 are arranged on the expansion ring sample 4 at intervals, which are used to collect the strain signals of the expansion ring sample 4 during the test. The strain gauges 19 can capture and record the tiny deformations of the expansion ring sample 4 during the expansion process in real time and accurately, and further analyze the mechanical properties of the expansion ring sample 4; the computer is electrically connected to the strain gauge 19, the full-digital dynamic servo sensor, the high-speed camera and the laser velocimeter respectively.

[0054] It should be noted that the supercritical carbon dioxide phase change is a process that can be precisely controlled by controlling parameters such as temperature and the volume of liquid carbon dioxide 13. By adjusting these parameters such as temperature and the volume of liquid carbon dioxide 13, the timing and intensity of the phase change can be precisely controlled to obtain various pressure levels from slight impact to strong impact, thereby meeting the test requirements at low, medium and high strain rates. In addition, the supercritical carbon dioxide phase change process has the characteristics of rapid response and concentrated energy release. At the moment of phase change, energy is quickly released, and the required strain rate can be reached in a short time, greatly reducing the time scale of the dynamic expansion test. At the same time, the supercritical carbon dioxide phase change technology has the advantages of environmental friendliness and high safety. No harmful substances will be produced or environmental pollution will be caused during the phase change process, which improves the safety of the test process. In addition, the device and method can be adapted to the dynamic expansion test research of different materials and structures. Whether it is metal, ceramic, rock or composite material, the phase change conditions can be adjusted by the device to generate suitable impact pressure for testing.

[0055] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a test method of the expansion ring test device based on the carbon dioxide phase change is also provided, comprising the following steps:

[0056] S1, the material to be studied is made into a standard expansion ring sample 4 according to the test requirements; a plurality of strain gauges 19 are arranged on the outer surface of the expansion ring sample 4 to measure the strain signal of the expansion ring sample 4 during the test;

[0058] S3, according to the test requirements, the corresponding confining pressure is applied to the expansion ring sample 4 through the water pump 16 on the confining pressure loading structure and the high-frequency response water transmission pipeline 17;

[0059] S4, after the confining pressure loading is completed, the power supply is connected to the electric lead 11 of the carbon dioxide filling tube 3, and the liquid carbon dioxide 13 in the carbon dioxide filling tube 3 is heated. When the liquid carbon dioxide 13 in the carbon dioxide filling tube 3 absorbs heat, it instantly vaporizes and generates a shock wave to expand and break the expansion ring sample 4;

[0060] S5, cut off the power supply after the test.

[0061] In summary, in the expansion ring test device and test method based on carbon dioxide phase change of the present application, compared with electromagnetic drive, the present device and method avoid the potential interference of complex electromagnetic field environment on the experimental results by adjusting the filling amount and heating rate of liquid carbon dioxide 13, expand the range of applicable test materials, simplify the experimental equipment and reduce energy consumption; compared with explosion drive, the present device and method significantly improve the safety and controllability of the experimental process by controlling the heating rate and filling amount of carbon dioxide, and reduce the harm of shock waves and fragments generated by the explosion to the experimental equipment and the surrounding environment; and compared with hydraulic drive, it controls the amount of carbon dioxide heating agent 12 and the amount of liquid carbon dioxide 13 to achieve a higher response speed and pressure regulation accuracy, and can more accurately simulate the crushing behavior of the expansion ring sample 4 under dynamic loading conditions, and realize expansion tests of different pressures by controlling the heating rate and filling amount of carbon dioxide. In addition, the present device applies a uniform and controllable static confining pressure around the expansion ring sample 4 through the initial static loading method of the confining pressure loading structure to simulate the ground stress environment of deep rock and other materials, so that the test results are more real and reliable. Furthermore, the expansion force caused by the carbon dioxide phase change technology is used to perform a dynamic expansion test on the expansion ring sample 4, which can more realistically simulate the dynamic tensile failure of the material in a deep environment, thereby making the test results more realistic and reliable.
