Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flow field measurement, and in particular to a flow field measurement method and system for dam-break flow passing through vegetation. Background Art

[0002] In the field of flow field measurement, Acoustic Doppler velocimetry (ADV) and Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) are two commonly used techniques.

[0003] An acoustic Doppler velocimeter (ADV) is an instrument that uses the Doppler effect of acoustic waves to measure the velocity of a fluid (5). It sends sound waves into the fluid and then calculates the velocity and flow rate distribution of the fluid based on the echo signals received by the sound waves.

[0004] The working principle of ADV includes the following steps:

[0005] Acoustic transmission: The instrument sends high-frequency acoustic signals into the fluid through the built-in acoustic transmitter.

[0006] Sound wave reflection: The transmitted sound wave signal will encounter particles or liquid interfaces in the fluid and reflect back to form an echo signal.

[0007] Doppler effect: The movement of particles or liquid in the fluid will cause the frequency of the echo signal to change, which is the Doppler effect.

[0008] Flow velocity calculation: By analyzing the frequency changes of the echo signal, ADV can calculate the velocity of the fluid, including the flow velocity size and direction.

[0009] ADV has the characteristics of high accuracy, real-time monitoring and strong adaptability, and is suitable for measurements in different scales and flow rate ranges.

[0010] Particle image velocimetry (PIV) is a transient, multi-point, non-contact fluid mechanics velocimetry method. It scatters some tracer particles with good tracking and reflective properties in the flow field, irradiates the section area of ​​the measured flow field with laser light, continuously captures two or more exposed particle images through the imaging recording system, and then uses the image correlation method to analyze the captured PIV images to obtain the average displacement of the particle image in each small area, thereby determining the two-dimensional fluid velocity distribution of the entire area on the flow field section.

[0011] The PIV system is mainly composed of a laser source, a flow field containing tracer particles, a high-speed camera and a computer. The laser source emits a sheet laser beam to illuminate a section of the flow field in the reactor. The tracer particles added to the flow field scatter the laser, so that the laser can be scattered to the side of the flow field. A high-speed camera is set in a direction perpendicular to the illuminated section, and the behavior of the illuminated flow field is continuously photographed at a set time interval, and the data is then transmitted to the computer. The computer then processes the data according to the set program and algorithm to obtain the velocity and concentration information of the flow field.

[0012] PIV technology breaks through the limitations of traditional single-point measurement and can simultaneously measure the two-dimensional velocity distribution or three-dimensional velocity field on a cross section of the flow field without contact, achieving interference-free measurement, and the PIV method has high measurement accuracy. After years of development, PIV technology has become increasingly mature in image acquisition and data processing algorithms, and has been widely recognized by people. As a powerful means to study various complex flow fields, it is widely used in various flow measurements.

[0013] Although ADV and PIV are widely used in the field of flow field measurement, they each have some shortcomings:

[0014] 1. Limitations of Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (ADV):

[0015] Limited measurement range: ADV is a point measurement device inserted into the fluid. It can only measure the flow velocity around the sensor and cannot provide comprehensive data on a large flow field. This limitation makes ADV incapable of measuring the flow velocity distribution in a large area. Specifically, for the measurement of the flow field inside vegetation, ADV is an invasive measurement method that only measures a single point and is affected by nearby obstacles. Therefore, it is not suitable for measuring the flow field inside vegetation.

[0016] Higher cost: ADV equipment is relatively expensive, which limits its widespread use in research or applications with limited budgets.

[0017] The measurement accuracy of clear water is low: In clear water, the measurement accuracy of ADV will be reduced, and it is necessary to improve the measurement accuracy by mixing an appropriate amount of suspended particles.

[0018] 2. Limitations of PIV:

[0019] Applicable to pure fluids: PIV technology works best in pure fluids without interference from solid particles. When there are solid boundaries or fluid-solid coupling in the flow field, the measurement effect of PIV will be seriously affected.

[0020] Light blocked by solids: A major problem faced by PIV technology in fluid-structure interaction experiments is light blocked by solids, which leads to discontinuities in the measurement area and incomplete data. Transparent materials can partially solve this problem, but it increases the difficulty of maintaining thermal boundaries and may change the optical path, distorting the particle image.

[0021] Measurement area limitation: Due to insufficient laser intensity, low spatial resolution and limited light sheet expansion, commercial PIV systems have limited measurement areas. This is particularly restrictive for PIV applications on full-scale models, which require the construction of large optical systems and camera technology to overcome this limitation.

[0022] In summary, although ADV and PIV technologies have their own advantages in the field of flow field measurement, they also have obvious limitations. ADV's point measurement and high cost limit its scope of application, while PIV's light blocking problem and measurement area limitation in fluid-solid coupling scenarios also affect its measurement results. These limitations have prompted researchers to seek new measurement technologies in order to obtain more accurate and comprehensive flow field data. Summary of the invention

[0058] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is implemented based on the technical solution of the present invention, and a detailed implementation method and a specific operation process are given, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. The features such as component models, material names, connection structures, control methods, etc. that are not clearly described in this technical solution are regarded as common technical features disclosed in the prior art.

[0059] The technical concept of the present invention is as follows:

[0060] The core purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings of existing PIV technology in studying fluid-solid interactions, especially in the scenario of dam break flow and vegetation interaction. Although PIV technology is widely used in the field of fluid mechanics and can provide full-field contactless flow velocity measurement, it faces a series of challenges in complex flow fields involving fluid-solid coupling, especially when the fluid flows through solid boundaries such as vegetation. PIV technology has a good measurement effect in pure fluids, but in fluid-solid coupling experiments, especially when there are solid boundaries in the flow field, PIV technology is difficult to accurately measure the flow velocity in the near-wall area. This is because the presence of solid boundaries blocks light, making it difficult for PIV technology to capture the particle image behind the solid boundary, resulting in discontinuity in flow velocity measurement and incomplete data. In the study of the interaction between dam break flow and vegetation, the presence of vegetation will significantly affect the distribution and structure of the flow field. Existing PIV technology cannot effectively penetrate vegetation and measure the flow velocity distribution inside the vegetation, which limits the in-depth understanding of the interaction mechanism between dam break flow and vegetation.

[0061] The solution of the present invention is to combine the refractive index matching technology with particle image velocimetry (PIV) to solve the shortcomings of PIV in studying fluid-solid interaction, especially in the scene of dam break flow and vegetation interaction. By making a transparent solid material with the same refractive index as the fluid to simulate vegetation, the goal of solid not blocking light and not refracting light is achieved, so that PIV technology can effectively measure the flow field inside vegetation.

[0062] Refractive index matching technology is a commonly used technology in the field of optics. Its core idea is to reduce or eliminate the reflection and refraction of light at the interface of different media by using refractive index matching materials, thereby improving the transmission efficiency and imaging quality of the optical system. In the present invention, the application of refractive index matching technology is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

[0063] Production of transparent solid materials: By selecting or synthesizing a transparent solid material with a refractive index similar to that of a fluid (such as water), a solid model simulating vegetation can be produced. This material needs to have good optical transparency and a refractive index similar to that of the fluid to ensure that light can pass through the solid model smoothly without obstruction.

[0064] Reduce light obstruction and refraction: Using solid models made of refractive index matching materials can significantly reduce light loss caused by solid particles or vegetation obstruction during PIV measurement. In this way, the PIV system can more accurately capture the image of particles flowing through solid boundaries, thereby obtaining more accurate flow velocity data.

[0065] Improve the accuracy of flow field measurement: Due to the use of refractive index matching materials, the reflection and refraction of light on the surface of solid models can be reduced, thereby reducing noise and artifacts in PIV images. This helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of flow field measurements, especially in complex fluid-solid coupling environments.

[0066] Expanding the application scope of PIV technology: By combining refractive index matching technology and PIV, the present invention not only improves the measurement capability of PIV in fluid-solid coupling scenarios, but also expands the application scope of PIV technology, enabling it to be better applied to the study of complex flow field problems such as the interaction between dam break flow and vegetation.

[0067] In summary, the present invention provides a new flow field measurement scheme by combining refractive index matching technology and PIV, which can effectively solve the shortcomings of PIV in the study of fluid-solid interaction, especially in the scenario of dam break flow and vegetation interaction, and provides an innovative solution for flow field measurement.

[0068] The present invention uses water as a fluid, which can be tap water. Compared with salt solutions, the cost is lower. Based on the selected fluid water, hydrogel is selected as a solid material to simulate vegetation. The preparation method of the hydrogel is simple. During the preparation process, the refractive index can be adjusted by adjusting the concentration, such as Figure 7 As shown, the refractive index of the fluid can be matched, and by adjusting the size and shape of the mold, hydrogels of different sizes and shapes can be obtained to simulate vegetation in different states.

[0074] Key Features: A cylindrical solid material 6 is inserted into a fixing plate 4 having an opening of the same shape and size as the solid material 6 .

[0075] Step 3: Arrange a particle image velocimetry device (PIV measurement device), which includes a laser source 7 and a camera 8.
