[0041] See Figures 1 to 3 , the present invention provides a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of a test system for visualizing the characteristics of water-sand two-phase flow in a dual medium. Among them, the device includes a dual-medium model 8, a PIV subsystem, a water supply subsystem, and a particle transport subsystem.
[0042] Among them, the dual-medium model 8 is a transparent structure and is internally loaded with the target construction formation structure. Generally, the target construction formation structure is printed using a 3D modeling and printing technique with a transparent material according to the condition parameters of the actual construction formation. Compared with the traditional simplified model, it can most accurately restore the actual formation conditions and pore states, ensuring the accuracy and referenceability of the experiment. At the same time, considering the need to detect the particle concentration in the experiment, positions for sensors need to be reserved in the 3D modeling. Preferably, the first particle sensor 1501, the second particle sensor 1502, and the third particle sensor 1503 are usually arranged in the upper, middle, and lower parts of the flow field observation position to analyze the interaction between the two.
[0043] And the water supply subsystem includes a water supply tank 5, and the water supply tank 5 is connected to the dual-medium model 8 through a water supply pipeline; the particle conveying subsystem includes a particle storage tank 4 and a particle nozzle 7. One end of the particle nozzle 7 is communicated with the particle storage tank 4, and the other end is connected to the dual-medium model 8. The particle storage tank 4 is loaded with uniformly mixed sand grains and dyed particles of various sizes; the water supply subsystem and the particle conveying subsystem are located on the same side of the dual-medium model 8 to simulate the influx of sand and water into the target construction formation structure.
[0044] Preferably, the particle storage tank 4 is also connected to a first pressure pump 201. The first pressure pump 201 is used to pump the sand grains in the particle storage tank 4 into the particle nozzle 7, and the spraying angle range of the particle nozzle 7 is 30 to 60 degrees, specifically as Figure 3 shown. Therefore, by adjusting the spraying range of the particle nozzle 7, the initial motion states of particles under various working conditions are simulated to meet different test requirements.
[0045] Preferably, the water supply tank 5 is also respectively connected to a second pressure pump 202 and a frequency converter 3. The frequency converter 3 is used to adjust the water flow rate and pressure output from the water supply tank 5, and the precise control of the water flow rate is achieved by adjusting the rotation speed of the second pressure pump 202, thereby meeting the test requirements.
[0046] Furthermore, the frequency converter 3 and the particle storage tank 4 are also electrically connected to a first computer 101, thereby realizing the intelligent setting of the output flow rate and flow velocity of sand and water.
[0047] Furthermore, a first electromagnetic flowmeter 601 is also provided in the water supply pipeline, and thus the flow rate is monitored through the first electromagnetic flowmeter 601 to achieve real-time monitoring of the water flow rate.
[0048] Furthermore, the PIV subsystem includes a first camera 9, a laser 10, and a sheet light source 11. The laser 10 and the light source component 11 are located above the dual-medium model 8. The laser 10 is used to provide a light source for the dye particles, the sheet light source 11 is used to provide illumination for the dye particles, and the first camera 9 is used to visually display the operation of the sand-water influx into the target construction formation structure by photographing the position change of the dye particles after the action of laser pulses. Among them, the laser 10 usually uses double-pulse laser to provide a light source for the dye particles in the flow field. The laser beam forms a thin light layer in the fluid, exciting the dye particles in the fluid. The main function of the sheet light source 11 is to provide uniform illumination for the dye particles in the flow field to ensure that the displacement of the dye particles between two laser pulses can be accurately captured and analyzed. And the first camera 9 captures the position change of the dye particles by photographing the flow field images after the action of two laser pulses. Preferably, in order to distinguish the dye particles used for the operation of the PIV subsystem and the sand grains used for the test, polystyrene that can move with the flow of the fluid and whose particle size, density, etc. are suitable for the fluid is selected as the dye particles for the operation of the PIV subsystem.
[0049] Furthermore, the first camera 9 is a high-precision camera.
[0050] Furthermore, the device further includes a particle separation tank 16. The particle separation tank 16 is connected to the other side of the dual-medium model 8 opposite to the water supply subsystem and the particle conveying subsystem. The particle separation tank 16 is connected to the dual-medium model 8 through a discharge pipeline, and a second electromagnetic flowmeter 602 is also connected in the discharge pipeline. The outlet of the discharge pipeline extends deep into the particle separation tank 16. Furthermore, the residual amount of particles with different particle sizes can be visually observed in the particle separation tank 16. After drying the particles in different particle size ranges, they are weighed and recorded for subsequent data analysis. Preferably, the particle separation tank 16 includes a particle filtration area in the upper part and a water storage area in the lower part. A waste water outlet 17 is also connected to the side wall of the water storage area, and when the water storage area is full, it can be discharged through the waste water outlet 17. And the particle filtration area includes multiple layers of sieves. As Figure 2 shown, the filtration pore diameters of each layer of sieve decrease sequentially from top to bottom, and thus the appropriate sieve can be freely selected according to the actual conditions.
[0051] Further, the dual-medium model 8 is placed on a corresponding test bench 12. The test bench 12 is provided with a plurality of threaded support columns 13. Among them, the height of the threaded support columns 13 is adjustable. Further, the plurality of threaded support columns 13 are used to adjust the inclination angle of the dual-medium model 8 to simulate the construction stratum structures with different slopes. Preferably, the inclination angle is from -10 degrees to 10 degrees. Further, a plurality of fixed iron frames 14 are additionally arranged outside the dual-medium model 8. The plurality of fixed iron frames 14 are mainly used to fix the medium model to ensure stability during the test. Preferably, the fixed iron frames 14 are connected to the corresponding threaded support columns 13.
[0052] Further, to ensure that the laser plane irradiates the test area correctly and the laser plane is accurately presented in the image, geometric calibration of the laser light source is required. Therefore, a calibration object is also placed on the upper surface of the dual-medium model 8. The calibration object is used to assist in adjusting the laser light source plane of the laser 10 and the irradiation plane of the camera 9 to be perpendicular.
[0053] Further, the sensors arranged in the dual-medium model 8 are also electrically connected to the second computer 102 to obtain the test data during the test in real time.
[0054] Further, the device further includes a second camera 18. The second camera 18 can clearly capture the flow behavior of the particles in the medium to ensure the visualization of the dynamic process. It can combine with the data of the sensor 15 to feedback the test situation in real time and record the behavior characteristics of the particles in different types of media. Preferably, the second camera 18 is an industrial-grade camera.
[0055] Further, to better illustrate the effect of the system of the present invention, the following describes it through the specific test steps of the system:
[0056] Preparations: Place the particles required for the test in the particle storage box 4 and keep them dry; add the dyed polystyrene fine particles to the water supply tank 5 for the operation of the PIV subsystem. Adjust the threaded support columns 13 on both sides of the test bench 12 according to the test design so that various parameters of the dual-medium model 8 meet the test requirements. Install the particle sensors 15 at three positions and connect them to the second computer 102 for data transmission during the test.
[0057] Calibration of the PIV subsystem: During the operation of the PIV subsystem, place a calibration object with a known size, such as a glass plate or a transparent ruler with regular scales, in the test scene. Observe the positional relationship between the laser light plane and the calibration object, and ensure that the light plane irradiates correctly. By taking images at multiple different positions, check the shape of the laser plane in the images to ensure that the light plane is uniform and perpendicular to the camera lens. After calibration, keep the device in an always-on state.
[0058] Water supply step: Turn on the second pressure pump 202 and open the switch of the water supply tank 5 to start supplying the test-set water flow conditions into the dual-medium model 8. Monitor the flow rate through the first electromagnetic flowmeter 601 until the model is filled with water.
[0059] Particle transportation step: After the water flow stabilizes, turn on the first pressure pump 201 to transport the particles stored in the particle storage bin 4 to the particle nozzle 7, and transport the particles into the model at a preset angle and speed.
[0060] Data acquisition: When starting to transport particles into the model, turn on the second camera 18 to visually record the motion state of the particles during the entire test process in the model; turn on the first camera 9 to cooperate with the other PIV subsystem components to record the evolution of the flow field during the entire test process. Stop the test after sufficient data is collected, and then turn off the first pressure pump 201, the particle storage bin 4, the second pressure pump 202, the water supply tank 5, and the other PIV subsystem components in sequence.
[0061] Particle processing: The residual amounts of particles with different particle sizes can be visually observed in the particle separation tank 16. Dry the particles in different particle size ranges, weigh them, and record them for subsequent data analysis.
[0062] Finally, the computer system and the second camera 18 record the key behaviors during the test process, including the changes in the flow field and the data of the particle sensors. Combining subsequent data analysis and visualization means, accurately depict the deposition and resuspension characteristics, as well as the migration and distribution laws of sand grains in the dual medium under different water flow conditions, providing important technical support for the research on the characteristics of water-sand two-phase flow in multi-media and related engineering design and prevention. The computer system includes the first computer 101 and the second computer 102.
[0063] In the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can adopt the existing technology for software control. The present invention only relates to the structure of the test system for visualizing the characteristics of water-sand two-phase flow in the dual medium and their mutual connection relationships.
