Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of particle dynamics, and in particular to a thermal stratified reservoir particle settling motion test simulation device and a simulation method. Background Art

[0002] In a thermally stratified reservoir, particles settle from the upper high-temperature layer to the lower low-temperature layer under the action of gravity. Thermal stratification has a certain decelerating effect on particle sedimentation. The geometric shapes of the sedimentation particles in the reservoir are mostly disc-shaped, floc-shaped and other structural forms.

[0003] In a liquid, the sedimentation rate of particles is proportional to the square of the particle size and inversely proportional to the viscosity of the liquid. Specifically, large particles are subject to a stronger gravitational force due to their large volume and heavy mass, so they settle faster; while small particles are the opposite and settle slower. In addition, the viscosity of the liquid will also affect the sedimentation rate of the particles. The greater the viscosity, the greater the resistance the particles encounter when settling, and the slower the sedimentation rate.

[0004] In existing sedimentation tests on particles, it is usually assumed that the particles are ideal spheres. In fact, the shape of particles may be block, flake or other irregular shapes. The idealized assumption will lead to deviations between the actual sedimentation rate and the theoretical calculation results. In addition, the existing particle sedimentation dynamics test uses the test structure with the same temperature above and below, and only uses a single vertical temperature test, which limits the scope of application of the test. Researchers cannot fully explore the impact of vertical water temperature stratification on particle sedimentation behavior, and cannot simulate the particle sedimentation movement process under thermal stratification.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new particle sedimentation motion test device and method to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a simulation device and method for the test of particle settling movement in a thermal stratified reservoir.

[0008] Furthermore, a water tank is provided inside the main body of the test structure, and a temperature control plate 1 and a temperature control plate 2 for forming a temperature stratification interface are fixed to the bottom wall and the bottom wall of the water tank respectively. The main body of the test structure is rotatably arranged between the two side plates by a rotating column, and four relatively distributed slots 1 and two slots 2 are provided on the surfaces of the two side plates, and the two slots 2 are relatively located between the four slots 1. Four relatively grooves 1 and two relatively grooves 2 are provided on the front and back sides of the main body of the test structure, and a slide groove 1 is provided on the inner side walls of the four grooves 1, and a slide groove 2 is provided on the inner side walls of the two grooves 2, and the water tank is fixed to the bottom wall of the main body of the test structure, and the two ends of the temperature control plate 1 and the temperature control plate 2 are respectively fixed to the top wall and the bottom wall of the water tank, and a number of equidistantly distributed mounting holes are provided on the surfaces of the temperature control plate 1 and the temperature control plate 2.

[0009] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism includes a card plate 1 and a card plate 2, the number of card plates 1 and card plates 2 are eight and four respectively, the bottom of card plate 1 slides on the bottom wall of the groove 1, a pull ring 1 is fixed to the top of card plate 1, the bottom of card plate 2 slides on the bottom wall of the groove 2, a pull ring 2 is fixed to the top of card plate 2, both ends of card plate 1 slide on the bottom wall of the groove 1 through slide groove 1, and both ends of card plate 2 slide on the bottom wall of the groove 2 through slide groove 2, wherein when the two ends of card plate 2 slide on the bottom wall of the groove 2 through slide groove 2, no disturbance will be caused to the water tank.

[0010] The thermal stratified reservoir particle settling movement test simulation method provided by the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0011] S1. Test preparation stage: After the temperature stratification interface is formed, a sponge diffuser is used to slowly add the low-temperature constant temperature aqueous solution and the high-temperature constant temperature aqueous solution to the upper and lower sides of the temperature stratification interface in the water tank in sequence, and particles are prepared for testing;

[0012] S2, preparation stage: when preparing particles for testing, two groups of disc particles with different diameter-to-thickness ratios were prepared using acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene, and agarose spheres were prepared by gelling agarose solution in deionized water to form porous particles;

[0013] S3, particle size measurement stage: the prepared disc particles and porous particles are measured for particle size using a microscope, and particles of the same type are selected and grouped;

[0014] S4, sedimentation test stage: after the grouping is completed, a single particle is released from the top of the water tank to the bottom of the water surface, and the particle is allowed to settle freely in the stratified water column. A camera with a macro lens is used to collect images, and the vertical water temperature distribution of each layer of each test water body and the sedimentation trajectory of the particles are observed and recorded. Multiple particles of the same type are used, and each particle is tested repeatedly for multiple times. At this time, the sedimentation trajectory of all types of particles and the particle direction data are collected;

[0015] S5, data processing and analysis stage: analyze and process the collected data of all types of particle settling trajectories and particle directions, perform image preprocessing on the particle trajectory, and quantitatively describe the particle settling behavior, and analyze the force process of particles in stratified water bodies, including gravity, buoyancy, drag and added mass force;

[0017] Furthermore, in the test preparation stage, it also includes adding an aqueous solution of a certain water temperature into the water tank. The injection sequence of the sponge diffuser includes pouring the low-temperature aqueous solution into the bottom of the water tank first until the water level reaches the height of the lower temperature control plate 2. After the water tank is filled with the required volume of low-temperature water, the sponge diffuser is reused to inject the high-temperature aqueous solution into the water tank until the height of the water column reaches an appropriate height, and then a particle sedimentation test is carried out.

[0018] Furthermore, before using the sponge diffuser, it is necessary to soak the sponge diffuser in constant temperature water of a corresponding temperature to control the filling speed.

[0019] Furthermore, during the settlement test phase, temperature sensors need to be arranged at intervals of 0.050 m in the vertical direction to continuously record the water temperature at an interval of 3 seconds.

[0020] Furthermore, when acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene is used to prepare disc particles, the density thereof is 1.050 g / mL. The disc particles include thin discs and thick discs. The required disc particles are selected according to the morphological characteristics of the particles monitored in situ in the reservoir. Agarose spheres are prepared by gelling agarose solution in deionized water to form porous particles. The dry density of agarose is 1.640 g / mL.

[0021] It should be noted that a plurality of particles of the same type were used, and each particle was subjected to multiple repeated tests. The multiple types included thin discs, thick discs, and porous particles, and each group was subjected to multiple repeated tests.

[0022] Compared with the related art, the thermal stratified reservoir particle settling motion test simulation device and simulation method provided by the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0024] 2. Sedimentation tests of different types of particles in different sedimentation environments are used for analysis. The sedimentation velocity of the particles is corrected. This method takes into account the influence of factors such as fluid viscosity, particle shape, temperature gradient and measurement error, making the sedimentation velocity obtained by this method more accurate and reliable. The sedimentation velocity is adjusted to ensure the accuracy of the test results. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0039] In the specific implementation process, Figures 1 to 9As shown, a thermal stratified reservoir particle settling motion test simulation device includes a test structure body 2, and side panels 1 are provided on the left and right sides of the test structure body 2. The surfaces of the two side panels 1 are provided with a plurality of monitoring holes 11 for observing the particle settling motion trajectory. The surface of the test structure body 2 is also provided with a limiting mechanism for limiting the position of the test structure body 2. Among them, the monitoring hole can be a hole-shaped structure or a strip-shaped window structure, which is mainly convenient for real-time image capture by camera. In addition, the cameras used to shoot and capture the particle movement position can be arranged in the X and Y directions of the test structure body 2 respectively, so as to capture the particle movement position at each moment in a two-dimensional plane, thereby improving the accuracy.

[0040] A water tank 3 is also provided inside the test structure main body 2. The bottom wall and the bottom wall of the water tank 3 are respectively fixed with a temperature control plate 1 31 and a temperature control plate 2 32 for forming a temperature stratification interface. The test structure main body 2 is rotatably arranged between the two side panels 1 through a rotating column 12. Four relatively distributed slots 13 and two slots 2 14 are also provided on the surfaces of the two side panels 1. The two slots 2 14 are relatively located between the four slots 13. Four relatively grooves 1 21 and two relatively grooves 22 are provided on the front and rear sides of the test structure main body 2. A slide groove 1 211 is provided on the inner side walls of the four grooves 1 21. A slide groove 221 is provided on the inner side walls of the two grooves 22. The water tank 3 is fixed to the bottom wall of the test structure main body 2.

A number of equidistantly distributed mounting holes 33 are also provided on the surfaces of the temperature control plate 1 31 and the temperature control plate 2 32.

[0041] The limiting mechanism includes a card plate 1 23 and a card plate 24. The number of the card plates 1 23 and the number of the card plates 24 are eight and four respectively. The bottom of the card plate 1 23 slides on the bottom wall of the groove 1 21. The top of the card plate 1 23 is fixed with a pull ring 1 231.

The two ends of the card plate 24 slide on the bottom wall of the groove 22 through the slide groove 221.

[0042] When the test structure body 2 slides to the limit mechanism, one end of the clamping plate 1 23 and the clamping plate 2 24 are respectively inserted into the slot 1 13 and the slot 2 14 , and the positioning is reliable, so no disturbance is caused to the water tank 3 .

[0043] A method for simulating the settling movement of particles in a thermally stratified reservoir comprises the following steps:

[0044] S1, test preparation stage: after the temperature stratification interface is formed, a sponge diffuser is used to slowly add the low-temperature constant temperature aqueous solution and the high-temperature constant temperature aqueous solution to the upper and lower sides of the temperature stratification interface in the water tank 3 in sequence, and particles are prepared for testing;

[0045] During the test preparation stage, it also includes adding an aqueous solution of a certain water temperature into the water tank 3. The injection sequence of the sponge diffuser includes pouring the low-temperature aqueous solution into the bottom of the water tank 3 first until the water level reaches the height of the lower temperature control plate 2 32. After the water tank 3 is filled with the required volume of low-temperature water, the sponge diffuser is used again to inject the high-temperature aqueous solution into the water tank 3 until the height of the water column reaches an appropriate height. At this time, a particle sedimentation test is carried out.

[0046] In addition, before using the sponge diffuser, it is necessary to soak the sponge diffuser in constant temperature water of a corresponding temperature to control the filling speed.

[0047] S2, preparation stage: when preparing particles for testing, two groups of disc particles with different diameter-to-thickness ratios were prepared using acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), and agarose spheres were prepared by gelling agarose solution in deionized water to form porous particles;

[0048] When acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) is used to prepare disc particles, the density thereof is 1.050 g / mL. The disc particles include thin discs and thick discs. The required disc particles are selected according to the morphological characteristics of the particles monitored in situ in the reservoir. Agarose spheres are prepared by gelling agarose solution in deionized water to form porous particles. The dry density of agarose is 1.640 g / mL.

[0049] S3, particle size measurement stage: the prepared disc particles and porous particles are measured for particle size using a microscope, and particles of the same type are selected and grouped;

[0050] S4, sedimentation test stage: after the grouping is completed, a single particle is released under the water surface at the top of the water tank 3 to allow the particle to settle freely in the stratified water column. A camera with a macro lens is used to collect images, and the vertical water temperature distribution of each layer of each test water body and the sedimentation trajectory of the particles are observed and recorded. Multiple particles of the same type are used, and each particle is tested repeatedly for multiple times. At this time, the sedimentation trajectory of all types of particles and the particle direction data are collected;

[0051] During the settlement test phase, temperature sensors need to be arranged vertically every 0.050m to continuously record the water temperature with a recording interval of 3s.

[0052] S5, data processing and analysis stage: analyze and process the data of all types of particle settling trajectories and particle directions after collection, perform image preprocessing on the particle trajectory, and quantitatively describe the particle settling behavior, and analyze the force process of particles in stratified water bodies, including gravity, buoyancy, drag and added mass force;

[0053] S6, test results stage: Based on the analyzed test data, calculate the resistance coefficient C D And Reynolds number parameters, analyze the particle resistance coefficient C under the action of water temperature stratification D As well as the response relationship between the Reynolds number parameters and the particle morphology indicators, the particle settling velocity is corrected.

[0054] It should be noted that the height of the test structure main body 2 is 2.0m, the length and width of the test structure main body 2 are 0.09m, and the temperature control plate 1 31 and the temperature control plate 2 32 are respectively fixed on the horizontal planes 0.020m and 1.180m away from the bottom of the water tank 3;

[0055] It should be noted that the monitoring holes 11 provided on the side panels 1 allow researchers to observe the sedimentation trajectory of particles, thereby obtaining accurate data, wherein the side panels 1, the test structure body 2 and the water tank 3 are all made of transparent materials.

[0056] It should be noted that the limiting mechanism includes a card plate 1 23 and a card plate 24. When in use, the pull ring 1 231 and the pull ring 241 are pulled to slide in the groove 1 21 and the groove 2 22, and the position is fixed by the slide groove 1 2111 and the slide groove 221.

[0057] It should be noted that in the test preparation stage, in order to determine the vertical change of the temperature in the water tank 3, it is necessary to arrange temperature sensors at intervals of 0.050m in the vertical direction to continuously record the water temperature. The recording time interval is 3s. Among them, the relationship between water temperature and density is nonlinear. The formula used for pure water temperature and density is as follows:

[0058] ρ T =a0+a1T+a2T 2 +a3T 3 +a4T 4 +a5T 5

[0059] Where T is the water temperature in °C; ρ T is the density of pure water, in kg / m3; a0, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5 are constants.

[0060] It should be noted that the disc particles are made of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene with a density of 1.050 g / mL. In the preparation of particles, an ABS acetone solution was prepared, and the droplets formed by the solution were dropped onto a polished glass plate. After the acetone evaporated, a thin sheet was formed. According to the morphological characteristics of the in-situ monitoring particles of the reservoir, two groups of disc particles with different diameter-thickness ratios were selected, namely thin discs and thick discs for testing;

[0061] The porous particles are made of agarose spheres, which are prepared by gelation of agarose solution in deionized water, with a dry density of 1.640 g / mL. During the gelation of the agarose solution, the agarose forms a fibrous microstructure with a porosity of about 95%.

[0062] It should be noted that the density of the particles was estimated by measuring the sedimentation velocity of the particles in distilled water at a constant temperature of 20°C. After measuring the particle size, the individual particles were gently transferred to the main body of the sedimentation behavior test structure through a pipette with a cut-off tip. The particle sedimentation velocity was calculated from the recorded vertical displacement, and the average sedimentation velocity was calculated over at least 3 consecutive seconds to obtain the sedimentation velocity u after the particles settled at a uniform speed, which was used to estimate the particle density ρ. a , the specific formula is:

[0063]

[0064] Where g is the acceleration due to gravity, ρ T is the water density, C D is the resistance coefficient, d is the particle diameter. Resistance coefficient C D The calculation of resistance is based on the following empirical law:

[0065]

[0066] It should be noted that the calculation formula of porosity is as follows:

[0067]

[0068] Where W is the particle mass and V is the particle volume. In the experiment, the mass of all porous particles was weighed, and the particle volume was obtained by summing the volumes of individual particles under a microscope.

[0069] It should be further explained that for particle density calculation, the following formula can also be used to calculate the particle density ρ a :

[0070]

[0071] Where, u is the settling velocity of the particle in mm / s;

[0072] g is the acceleration due to gravity 980 mm / s 2 ;

[0073] ρ T is the density of water 1g / cm 3 =1000kg / m 3 ;

[0074] C D is the drag coefficient;

[0075] d is the particle diameter in mm;

[0076] μ is the dynamic viscosity of water 1mPa·s=1cP=0.001Pa·s

[0077] For C D The drag coefficient can also be calculated using the following formula:

[0078]

[0079] Where Re is the Reynolds number, calculated as:

[0080]

[0081] For the calculation of the morphological index χ, the following formula can also be used:

[0082]

[0083] Where d is the particle diameter in mm;

[0084] t is the particle thickness in mm

[0085] For the calculation of porosity φ, the following calculation formula can also be used:

[0086]

[0087] Among them, ρ a is the density of the particle in g / mL;

[0088] ρ s is the density of the granular material in g / mL.

[0089] It should be noted that the particle settling test was carried out in the main body of the above-mentioned test structure, and two cameras (Basler acA2500-60um) equipped with Componon 2.8 / 28-001 (Schneider-Kreuznach) macro lenses were used for image acquisition, and 1 pixel of the camera corresponds to 31μm.

[0090] In all the tests of Example 1, the bottom layer temperature was kept constant, and the upper layer temperature was set based on monitoring experience, so that the surface and bottom temperature differences were ΔT, 2ΔT, and 3ΔT, respectively.

[0091] It should be noted that the sedimentation state of particles can also be analyzed as follows. First, the sedimentation state of particles is mainly determined by the force on the particles. First, it is necessary to analyze the force process of particles in stratified water. Particles that settle freely in still water are simultaneously affected by gravity (Fg), buoyancy (Ff), drag (Fd) and additional mass force (Fm).

[0092] Studies on spherical particles show that the gravity and buoyancy forces on the particles are as follows:

[0093]

[0094] Where z is the vertical coordinate, ρ T (z) is the density of the water at depth z.

[0095] When spherical particles settle in stratified water, the tail of the particle "entrains" the upper water, such as Figure 8 As shown, the volume of water attached to the tail of the particle is VL, and the gravity, buoyancy and resistance of the spherical particle change, specifically:

[0096]

[0097] In the formula, ρ T (z0) represents the density of water where the particle density is lower in the upper layer.

[0098] The resistance to particle settling is not only related to the Reynolds number of the particle, but also to the water temperature, particle shape (projected area), etc. The resistance calculation formula obtained from the spherical particle settling test is:

[0099]

[0100] Where u(z) is the settling velocity of the particle at depth z.

[0101] When particles settle in water, they push the surrounding water. Due to the inertial water body, the particles will show a reaction force and generate additional mass force, that is, the additional mass force increased by the acceleration or deceleration of the sedimentation in the static water body. The calculation formula of the additional mass force is:

[0102]

[0103] In the formula, the coefficient k is related to the particle shape, and the value of spherical particles is 0.5;

[0104] Therefore, when the particle acceleration is not large, the added mass force can be ignored.

[0105] Analysis of the sedimentation of spherical particles in still water:

[0106] It can be roughly divided into two stages, namely the acceleration stage and the stable stage. The resistance of the particle sedimentation is proportional to the square of the sedimentation velocity u(z). When the particle sedimentation velocity increases to a certain extent, the particle gravity, buoyancy and resistance reach a force balance, and the particle sedimentation velocity tends to be stable. At this time, the calculation formula of the particle sedimentation velocity is:

[0107]

[0108] According to the resistance calculation formula during particle sedimentation:

[0109] F d =3πduν (12)

[0110] The particle settling velocity can be expressed as:

[0111]

[0112] Where Re is the Reynolds number; ν is the kinematic viscosity of water, which is 1.05×10-2cm2 / s at 20°C.

[0113] It should be noted that the turning of disc particles and the "diffusion limit" behavior of porous particles during the sedimentation process significantly affect the particle sedimentation velocity. Therefore, the calculation formula for the sedimentation velocity of spherical particles mentioned above is corrected.

[0114] It should be further explained that the influence of particle morphology indicators such as particle size, shape, porosity, etc. on the sedimentation velocity is taken into account, the sedimentation velocity is obtained through experiments, and the resistance coefficient C is calculated. D , Reynolds number and other parameters, analyze the response relationship between these parameters and particle morphology indicators, refer to the classic formula of particle sedimentation velocity, use experimental data to correct the particle size, volume, porosity and other morphology index parameters in the formula, and obtain the velocity formula for different particle sedimentation.

[0115] References Figure 8 As shown, the field of view captured by the camera is located within the capturing area 4 .

[0116] The working principle provided by the present invention is as follows: The present invention can more realistically reflect the behavior of different types of particles in the actual sedimentation process, by adjusting the position of the temperature stratification interface and the shape of the particles, and conducting experiments, and calculating the resistance coefficient C according to the analyzed test data. D And Reynolds number parameters, analyze the particle resistance coefficient C under the action of water temperature stratification D As well as the response relationship between the Reynolds number parameters and the particle morphology indicators, the sedimentation velocity of the particles can be corrected.
