Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of compressed air energy storage, and in particular to a composite structure for compensating for axial deformation of an artificial lining cavern. Background Art

[0002] Artificial lined caverns are one of the main types of compressed air storage, with wide selection of sites, large scale, and environmental friendliness. In order to ensure the stability and airtightness of the cavern under high internal pressure, a composite structure needs to be constructed. The composite structure is generally composed of a sealing layer, a lining, and surrounding rock. At present, the sealing layer mostly uses a thin steel lining. During the operation of compressed air energy storage, the temperature changes cyclically, and the composite structure (especially the steel lining) will have thermal expansion and contraction effects due to temperature changes. The hoop stress of the steel lining is mainly caused by the high internal pressure, and the thermal stress generated during thermal expansion is beneficial to the hoop stress. However, in the axial direction of the steel lining, the stress generated by the air pressure can be ignored. The limited thermal expansion and contraction of the steel lining may cause warping and tension damage of the steel lining. Therefore, it is necessary to take certain temperature deformation compensation measures for the axial direction of the steel lining. However, the composite structure at this stage has not taken effective measures for this. Summary of the invention

For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0026] It should be noted that the directional words such as "upper", "lower", "left", and "right" described in the embodiments of the present application are described at the angles shown in the accompanying drawings and should not be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application. In addition, in the context, it should also be understood that when it is mentioned that an element is connected to another element "upper" or "lower", it can not only be directly connected to another element "upper" or "lower", but also indirectly connected to another element "upper" or "lower" through an intermediate element.

[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a composite structure for axial deformation compensation of an artificial lined cavern, the composite structure includes a surrounding rock mass 1, a concrete lining 2 and a steel lining sealing layer, the surrounding rock mass 1, the concrete lining 2 and the steel lining sealing layer are sequentially arranged in the artificial lined cavern 7; the steel lining sealing layer includes an annular steel lining 3 and at least one corrugated steel lining 4, the structural section where the corrugated steel lining 4 is located is also called a compensation section. Generally speaking, the radius of the annular steel lining 3 is 4 to 6m, the thickness is 10 to 20mm, and the material is high-strength steel. The corrugated steel lining 4 is annular in shape and wavy in shape in the axial direction. Specifically, the corrugated steel lining 4 has a corrugated section 41 and a straight connecting section 42. The corrugated section 41 includes a plurality of semicircular corrugations 43. The plurality of semicircular corrugations 43 are connected end to end and are arranged in a wavy structure along the axial direction of the corrugated section 41. The straight connecting section 42 is located on both sides of the corrugated section 41 along the axial direction. The straight connecting section 42 connects the corrugated section 41 and the annular steel lining 3, that is, the top and bottom of the corrugated section 41 are semicircles, each semicircle is a corrugation number, and the horizontal sections at both ends of the corrugated steel lining 4 are straight connecting sections 42.

[0028] In this embodiment, the composite structure can absorb part of the lateral deformation through the corrugated steel lining 4, effectively reduce the thermal stress caused by temperature change in the axial direction of the gas storage, and alleviate the tension or warping damage caused by thermal barrier and shrinkage in the axial direction, thereby ensuring the long-term airtightness and safety of the gas storage. In addition, the corrugated steel lining 4 can also be arranged in areas with local weak surrounding rocks, so that it can resist part of the lateral deformation while compensating for the axial temperature.

[0029] In a specific embodiment, the size and number of the semicircular corrugations 43 in the corrugated steel lining 4 are related to the amplitude of the temperature change in the cavern and the thermal expansion coefficient of the steel lining. The compression of the corrugated steel lining 4 needs to be greater than or equal to the thermal expansion deformation caused by the high temperature of the total steel lining of the cavern. Similarly, the elongation of the corrugated steel lining 4 needs to be greater than or equal to the cold contraction deformation caused by the low temperature of the total steel lining of the cavern.

[0030] Specifically, if the thermal expansion and contraction deformation of the steel lining sealing layer caused by temperature is defined as ΔL, then ΔL=αΔTL1, where α is the thermal expansion coefficient, ΔT is the temperature change value, and L1 is the total length of the artificial lining cavern 7;

[0031] The compression deformation of the corrugated steel lining 4 is L c , the elongation deformation of the corrugated steel lining 4 is L t , then L c =dN / 2, Wherein, d is the diameter of the semicircular corrugation 43, and N is the number of the semicircular corrugations 43;

[0032] Then L c and L t Satisfies the inequality:

[0033]

[0034] The diameter value obtained in the above inequality takes the larger value, which is the minimum corrugation circle diameter that meets the deformation compensation requirements. The above inequality is the design basis of the corrugated section 41. In addition, in order to avoid excessive axial deformation of a single compensation node, the number of corrugations of a compensation node is odd, generally controlled at about 5, and should not exceed 10. The corrugation size is also constrained by the manufacturing process and other structural dimensions. The size is appropriate, which will not be elaborated in this article. In addition, in order to achieve the effect of uniform compensation, multiple compensation nodes can be evenly arranged on the axis of the cavern.

[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the straight connecting section 42 is flush with the wall surface of the annular steel liner 3, and the straight connecting section 42 can be welded with the annular steel liner 3 to form a steel liner sealing layer. The semicircular corrugation 43 of the corrugated section 41 on the side close to the straight connecting section 42 is flush with the wall surface of the annular steel liner 3; the corrugated section 41 also includes a transition section 44, which is a quarter circle and connects the corrugated section 41 and the straight connecting section 42.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the composite structure also includes a cushion layer 5 and a supporting structure 6, the supporting structure 6 is arranged between the surrounding rock mass 1 and the concrete lining 2, the cushion layer 5 can be deformed, the cushion layer 5 is tightly arranged between the steel lining sealing layer and the concrete lining 2, and the thickness of the cushion layer 5 gradually becomes thinner in the direction from the corrugated steel lining 4 to the annular steel lining 3.

[0037] Specifically, a cushion layer 5 is backfilled behind the compensation joint. The cushion layer 5 can be made of clay or rubber, which fits tightly with the steel lining and lining and can undergo large deformation. The thickness of the cushion layer 5 is at least 0.01m greater than the corrugation height (equal to the diameter d), and the thickness gradually becomes thinner in the connection area with the conventional steel lining. The transition distance is at least 1m. The back cushion layer 5 allows the compensation joint to deform and is not constrained by concrete. The back of the remaining annular steel lining 3 sections is used to backfill the concrete lining 2. The support system is constructed during the excavation of the cavern. In the later backfilling of the concrete lining 2, the steel lining sealing layer, cushion layer 5, concrete lining 2, support structure 6 and surrounding rock mass 1 form a cavern composite structure.

[0038] Embodiment 1:

[0039] There is an artificial lined cavern for compressed air energy storage, which is arranged in a tunnel style. The designed cavern section diameter is 10m, the net space of the cavern is 200,000m3, and the total length of the cavern is about 2,600m. The cavern is arranged in a long strip tunnel. Each gas storage cavern is 520m long, with 1 horizontally and 4 vertically arranged side by side. The spacing meets the stability requirements. The cavern composite structure is now designed. According to the surrounding rock parameters, burial depth, cave diameter and operating pressure, 07mnmovr (600MPa grade) steel lining with a thickness of 20mm is selected.

[0040] The thermal expansion coefficient α of the steel lining is 0.012mm / m·℃. It is known that the temperature changes most significantly during the first charging and discharging. The highest temperature during inflation can be 80℃ higher than the normal temperature. According to this calculation, the thermal expansion length of each cavern can reach 0.4992m; when deflated, the temperature can drop to below zero, which is about 30℃ lower than the normal temperature, and each cavern shrinks by 0.1872m.

[0041] Each longitudinal cavern is equipped with a compensation section, 5 corrugations in the middle, a semicircle and a straight plate transition on each side, and the straight plate section is welded to the conventional circular steel lining. Two compensation sections are evenly arranged in the transverse caverns, and the number of corrugations in each compensation section is 3. According to the larger value of the inequality, the corrugation circle diameter is designed to be 0.2m.

[0042]

[0043] The rubber cushion layer is filled behind the corrugation, and the thickest part is designed to be 0.22m. It gradually thins from 0.22m to 0m at 1m at both ends of the compensation joint and the conventional steel lining. The excavation section of the cavern is 5.8m, the initial sprayed concrete is 0.02m, and a 3m long anchor support is designed. Plain concrete is backfilled between the cavern wall and the steel lining to form a lining. The thickest part of the concrete lining is 0.76m, and the thinnest part is 0.54m. Finally, a sealed composite structure of the gas storage cavern is formed. In order to facilitate construction, the compensation joint is generally set in the middle of the cavern, not at the plug, fork, or blind end.

[0044] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
