[0034] Working principle and process:

[0035] This application adopts the method of a vertical DC wind tunnel, uses the fan as the power source to drive the movement of sand and dust in the wind tunnel to simulate the surface sand and dust environment; uses a sand and dust filtration and recovery system to filter the sand and dust; at the same time, during the test, the thin magnetic plate is vibrated in real time by using the characteristic of the rapid switching of the positive and negative poles of the electronic electrode to shake the sand and dust attached to the filter net to the ground; uses the electrostatic adsorption device to capture the escaping particles.

[0036] The fan 2 is the power source of the wind tunnel, and the rotation speed of the fan blades is used to control the simulation of different wind speeds in the test section under low pressure; the sand and dust system realizes different sand and dust concentrations under different working conditions by controlling the amount of sand and dust entering the wind tunnel; the annular sandblasting device 3 is centered on the axis of the test section of the vertical direct-current wind tunnel 1, and the sandblasting nozzles are evenly distributed in a ring.

The airflow first jets out from the test section 16 and reaches the fine filtration steel mesh 12. The vast majority of sand and dust particles accumulate on the fine filtration steel mesh 12; the remaining sand and dust particles adhere to the filter mesh 13 along with the airflow. By utilizing the characteristic of the rapid switching of the positive and negative electrodes of the electronic electrode 9, the thin magnetic plate 10 vibrates in real time, shaking the sand and dust adhering to the filter mesh 13 onto the ground; the electrostatic adsorption device 14 is used to capture the escaping particles.
