Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of navigable tunnels, and in particular relates to a test method for measuring navigation parameters of ships in navigable tunnels. Background Art

[0002] In the design process of navigable tunnels, accurately obtaining the navigation parameters of ships is a key link. At present, although there are some methods for estimating the navigation parameters of ships in general restricted waterways, the cross-sectional coefficient of navigable tunnels is extremely small and the navigation conditions are complex. Therefore, relevant parameters are mainly obtained by ship model tests. The existing ship model test methods mainly include towing methods and motion conversion methods. The towing method uses a trailer-type ship model test pool to keep the trailer towing the ship model in a certain direction and speed; the motion conversion method converts the movement of the ship relative to the water flow into the movement of the water flow relative to the ship, that is, constraining the horizontal movement of the ship and allowing the water flow to move in a certain direction and speed. Both methods can measure the navigation parameters of the ship at a fixed speed.

[0003] However, the cross-section blocking effect in the navigable tunnel is obvious, the ship's navigation resistance increases, the hull sinks, and the actual speed on the other side is significantly lower than that in open waters, and can even drop to about 50%. In addition, due to the influence of ship waves, the ship's navigation speed in the tunnel changes dynamically, and parameters such as navigation resistance and sinking also change dynamically. The existing towing method and motion conversion method cannot simulate this complex dynamic navigation process, and the corresponding parameter measurement method is no longer applicable to the acquisition of dynamic navigation parameters in navigable tunnels.

[0054] S2. Make a test water tank according to the scale of the navigation tunnel model. The length of the test water tank is designed according to the actual navigation tunnel length. The width of the test water tank is designed according to 1.8 times the ship width. The height of the test water tank is equal to the maximum water depth of the test water tank plus 10cm of surplus height and rounded up.

Only the water-passing part below can be simulated). Cement mortar is used for plastering;

[0057] As an innovative implementation method, a movable partition is arranged inside the sink, so that the width of the sink can be adjusted within a certain range.

[0058] S3, make a ship model according to the scale of the navigable tunnel model, and calibrate the relationship between the ship's still water speed and main engine power in an open water environment with no wind.

[0082] Where, T is the stern sinking amount; Dv1, Dv n are the first and nth data of the ship vertical distance series respectively; Δt v It is the sampling time interval of the laser rangefinder.

[0083] Compared with the traditional towing method or motion conversion method, the test device in the present invention includes a test water tank, a ship model, and a navigation element testing system, which can truly simulate the navigation process of the ship in the prototype, and the width of the tunnel can be adjusted, which can more effectively reflect the impact of the blocking effect of the navigable tunnel on the navigation parameters of the ship.
