Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sediment settlement research, and particularly to a method for preparing consolidated sediment at the bottom of rivers, lakes and reservoirs under high pressure. Background Art

[0002] Consolidated sediment refers to the sediment in the deposits that are compacted, aggregated and cemented together at the bottom of rivers, lakes and reservoirs. This consolidated sediment often exhibits hard physical properties. Experiments on such consolidated sediment help to understand and control sediment deposition and erosion problems in areas such as rivers, lakes and reservoirs, and to show the structure, properties and erodibility of the sediment bed. The conventional method for obtaining consolidated sediment is to use the method of collecting sediment columns, that is, using a mechanical device to extract consolidated sediment from the bottom of the sediment bed. This method of collecting sediment columns usually requires renting a boat to transport the mechanical device directly above the collection point, and then sinking the mechanical device to the bottom to collect the consolidated sediment. After lifting the mechanical device with the collected consolidated sediment, taking out the consolidated sediment, it needs to be segmented for easy storage and stored separately in a sealed and refrigerated manner to retain the representativeness of the consolidated sediment as much as possible. Using the method of collecting sediment columns will consume a lot of manpower and material resources, and during the process of transporting and storing the consolidated sediment to the laboratory, there will still be changes in its properties, losing accuracy and representativeness; when the consolidated sediment is transported from underwater to above water, the environmental pressure changes, and the consolidated sediment will undergo chemical changes and changes in density; during the long-term storage and transportation process of the consolidated sediment, water will inevitably evaporate and be lost, and the chemical changes and density changes will cause qualitative changes from quantitative changes, which will have an adverse impact on the experimental results; the change in the properties of the consolidated sediment will lead to deviations in the experimental results and mislead the judgment of scientific researchers; therefore, each time the consolidated sediment is used, it is necessary to implement the method of collecting sediment columns, which consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, and the collected consolidated sediment cannot be experimented immediately, and the consolidated sediment is very easy to change, and it is difficult to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the experimental results, which is not conducive to scientific researchers to make judgments. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems and provide a method for preparing consolidated sediment at the bottom of rivers, lakes and reservoirs under high pressure.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is: a method for preparing consolidated sediment at the bottom of rivers, lakes and reservoirs under high pressure includes the following steps:

[0007] ②Filling the sedimentation barrel

[0008] The samples are added into several groups of sedimentation barrels; each group of sedimentation barrels corresponds to an underwater pressure of a water depth; the water depth is the depth of the bottom of the river, lake or reservoir; the underwater pressure is the same as the pressure at the bottom of the river, lake or reservoir; each group of sedimentation barrels includes several sedimentation barrels; within the same group, the sedimentation barrels are numbered one by one; each number corresponds to a pressurization day; within the same group, the pressurization days of each sedimentation barrel are different; the bottom of the sedimentation barrel is closed, and the top is detachably and tightly connected with a top cover; the sample is added from the top of the sedimentation barrel; the sedimentation barrel is provided with an equal-diameter cavity, and the cavity depth is H; the top cover is provided with a pressurization valve, a pressure gauge and a pilot-operated check valve; the outlet of the pilot-operated check valve is The port is connected to the inside of the sedimentation barrel; when the internal air pressure of the sedimentation barrel is greater than the external atmospheric pressure, the gas inside the sedimentation barrel will not be discharged from the outlet of the pilot check valve; remove the top cover; pour the sample into each sedimentation barrel; when the top of the sample is at a certain distance from the top of the sedimentation barrel, smooth the top of the sample in the sedimentation barrel until the top of the smoothed sample is a fixed distance h from the top of the sedimentation barrel; generally, the fixed distance h is 50 cm; fill the sedimentation barrel with water; there is water above the sample, so that the pressure of the high-pressure airflow can be stably and evenly applied to the sample to simulate the sedimentation process; then install the top cover airtightly on the top of the sedimentation barrel;

[0009] ③Pressure of sedimentation barrel
