DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, a small wind tunnel combustion test platform for simulating forest fires includes a combustion chamber 1 and a wind generator 2 connected to the combustion chamber 1.

[0028] A plurality of supporting legs 3 are fixedly installed at even intervals on the bottom of the combustion chamber 1, and a door 4 is hingedly installed on the combustion chamber 1. The door can be opened and locked, and a transparent observation window is provided on the door 4 to facilitate observation of the internal situation of the combustion chamber 1.

[0029] A mounting seat 5 is fixedly provided in the middle of the upper part of the bottom plate of the combustion chamber 1, and a combustion platform 6 is movably installed above the mounting seat 5. Specifically, a connecting arm 7 hingedly connected to the mounting seat 5 is fixedly provided in the middle of the bottom of the combustion platform 6. The combustion platform 6 includes a main base plate 8 at the bottom and a heat insulation protection plate 9 arranged above the main base plate 8. A plurality of electric igniters 10 are evenly spaced and installed on the main base plate 8 in a rectangular array. The heat insulation protection plate 9 is provided with ignition holes 11 at positions corresponding to each of the electric igniters 10. Through the above arrangement, it is possible to ignite the material at different positions of the combustion platform.

[0030] The bottom of the combustion table 6 near the two ends are in contact with the support balls 12 vertically movably arranged inside the combustion chamber 1. Two sets of adjustment mechanisms are arranged on the bottom plate of the combustion chamber 1 for adjusting the height of the support balls 12 located at the two ends of the bottom of the combustion table 6.

[0031] Each of the adjustment mechanisms comprises a nut 13 fixedly arranged on the bottom plate of the combustion chamber 1 and a screw 14 rotatably mounted on the nut 13 and threadedly connected to the nut 13. One end of the screw 14 located inside the combustion chamber 1 is rotatably connected to the bottom middle of the horizontally arranged lifting platform 15. Specifically, an upper connecting seat 16 and a lower connecting seat 17 are fixedly arranged in the middle of the bottom of the lifting platform 15 from top to bottom. The lower connecting seat 17 is provided with a lower connecting hole that is clearance-matched with the screw 14. The upper connecting seat 16 is provided with an upper connecting hole whose inner diameter is larger than the lower connecting hole. A connector 18 that is clearance-matched with the upper connecting hole is fixedly arranged on the upper end of the screw 14. Two vertical limit slide bars 19 are fixedly arranged at both ends of the lifting platform 15. Each of the limit slide bars 19 is slidably matched with a through hole opened on the bottom plate of the combustion chamber 1. A hand wheel 20 for driving the screw 14 to rotate is fixedly arranged on one end of the screw 14 located outside the combustion chamber 1.

[0032] The support ball 12 is fixedly arranged on the upper part of the lifting platform 15. In this embodiment, a support frame 21 with an E-shaped cross-section and arranged along the width direction of the combustion table 6 is fixedly arranged on the upper part of the mounting platform 12, and support balls 12 are arranged on the three free ends of the upper part of the support frame 21.

[0033] A plurality of smoke exhaust pipes 22 connected to the interior of the combustion chamber 1 are evenly spaced and installed on the upper portion of the combustion chamber 1 .

[0034] One end of the wind-generating cylinder 2 is connected to the combustion chamber 1 , and an induced draft fan 23 is installed at the other end. A heating device and a humidifying device are arranged inside the wind-generating cylinder 2 .

[0035] The combustion device is specifically configured as a spiral electric heater 24 , and the electric heater 24 is fixedly installed inside the wind tube 2 via a plurality of support rings 25 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the wind tube 2 .

[0036] The humidifying device includes a plurality of evenly spaced annular humidifying pipes 26 fixedly installed on the inner circumferential wall of the wind cylinder 2, each of the annular humidifying pipes 26 is connected to a water supply pipe 27 outside the wind cylinder 2, and a plurality of atomizing nozzles 28 connected to the interior thereof are evenly installed on the inner circumferential wall of each annular humidifying pipe 26 along the circumferential direction.

The flow stabilizer 29 can stabilize the vortex wind introduced by the induced draft fan, so that the wind direction enters the combustion chamber stably.

[0038] The present invention also includes a temperature monitor 30 and a humidity monitor 31 installed at one end of the combustion chamber close to the wind chimney, and a high temperature resistant camera 32 installed at the other end of the combustion chamber 1.

[0039] When the present invention is working, firstly, the slope and direction of the combustion platform are adjusted according to the test requirements. When making specific adjustments, it is only necessary to rotate the hand wheels at the lower ends of the two screws respectively so that the lifting platform drives the corresponding supporting balls to move up and down. The slope and direction of the combustion platform can be determined by the height difference of the supporting balls at both ends, and then the sample material for the test is placed on the combustion platform. The fan is started to generate wind. When the external wind introduced passes through the wind generating tube, the airflow blown into the combustion chamber is heated and humidified by the electric heater and the annular humidifying tube. After the temperature and humidity monitored by the temperature monitor and humidity monitor in the combustion chamber meet the test requirements and tend to be stable, the sample material can be ignited by the corresponding electric igniter, and then the simulation test can be carried out.
