Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of rock mechanics testing, in particular to a high-temperature cold impact triaxial testing device and method. Background Art
[0002] During the exploration and development of deep energy resources, such as deep oil and gas, geothermal energy, and coalbed methane, rocks often face complex environments such as high geostress and cold shock in high-temperature surrounding rocks. These include the cold shock of drilling fluid on the high-temperature surrounding rocks in the wellbore during deep drilling, and the cold shock of water and liquid nitrogen on the high-temperature reservoir rocks during fracturing to stimulate oil and gas reservoir production. Cold shock causes sudden changes in the temperature of the high-pressure, high-temperature surrounding rock, leading to non-uniform deformation within the surrounding rock, the expansion of existing cracks in the surrounding rock, or the initiation of new cracks, which significantly impacts the surrounding rock strength. Exploring the mechanical response and damage mechanisms of rocks under the coupled effects of high temperature, high pressure, and cold shock is crucial for engineering design, stability assessment, and resource extraction efficiency.
[0003] Triaxial compression testing of rock is an important method for studying rock mechanical properties in geotechnical engineering. However, existing triaxial testing equipment primarily focuses on measuring the basic mechanical parameters of rock under normal temperature or stable high-temperature and high-pressure conditions. Although some experimental equipment can achieve rock cooling through water cooling, the water-cooling heat exchange process is time-consuming and slow, making it difficult to achieve the desired effect of high-temperature cold shock. Furthermore, water cooling has a certain delay effect, making it difficult to precisely control the cooling rate and amplitude, making it difficult to accurately simulate the damage and mechanical response of rock under the coupled effects of high pressure, high temperature, and cold shock.
[0004] Therefore, a new type of test device is urgently needed that can simulate high-temperature cold shock of rock samples under triaxial loading conditions, study the influence of confining pressure and high temperature and cold shock coupling on rock mechanical properties and failure modes, and provide more accurate data support and theoretical basis for rock mechanical response analysis in complex environments in deep engineering.

[0055] In an embodiment of the present invention, a high temperature cold shock triaxial test device and method are provided, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 shown.
[0056] A high-temperature cold shock triaxial testing device comprises a loading unit, a heating unit, a liquid nitrogen cold shock unit and a sensor device.
[0057] A rock sample 4 is placed on the loading unit, and the loading unit is used to apply axial pressure and confining pressure to the rock sample 4 .
[0058] The loading unit includes a loading frame 101 , an axial pressure cylinder 102 , a loading shaft 103 , a loading pressure head 104 , a loading base 111 , a confining pressure chamber 106 and a confining pressure pump 108 .
[0059] The axial pressure cylinder 102 is mounted at the upper end of the loading frame 101. The telescopic end of the axial pressure cylinder 102 is connected to one end of the loading shaft 103. The other end of the loading shaft 103 is provided with a spherical loading head 104. The loading base 111 is located directly below the loading head 104. The upper end of the loading base 111 defines a groove into which the loading pad 105 is placed. A rock sample is placed between the loading pad 105 and the loading head 104, and the loading pad 105 and the loading head 104 apply an axial load to the rock sample 4. The lower end of the confining pressure chamber 106 is open and can be sealed to the edge of the loading base 111. The loading shaft 103 passes through the upper end of the confining pressure chamber 106 and is dynamically and sealably connected to the confining pressure chamber 106. The confining pressure pump 108 is connected to the confining pressure chamber 106 via a hydraulic pipeline. The confining pressure pump 108 is used to inject confining pressure fluid of a set pressure into the confining pressure chamber 106 , so that the confining pressure fluid applies confining pressure to the rock sample 4 .
[0060] Loading frame 101 is equipped with vertically arranged lifting rails 110. The outer wall of confining pressure chamber 106 is provided with lifting blocks that slidably engage with lifting rails 110. A vertically arranged lifting cylinder 109 is installed at the bottom of loading frame 101, with its telescopic end connected to the outer wall of confining pressure chamber 106.
[0061] The outer wall of the confined pressure chamber 106 is provided with a heat-insulating layer 107 for maintaining the temperature inside the confined pressure chamber 106 and preventing the experimenters from getting burned and heat loss.
[0062] The servo controller 112 is connected to the axial pressure cylinder 102 and the confining pressure pump 108 via signal cables, respectively, and is used to control the axial pressure cylinder 102 to apply axial load to the rock sample 4 and the confining pressure pump 108 to apply confining pressure to the rock sample 4, thereby reducing fluctuations in axial load and confining pressure caused by temperature changes of the confining pressure fluid and the rock sample 4.
[0063] The heating unit is used to transfer heat to the rock sample 4.
[0064] The heating unit includes a resistance wire 201, a power controller 202, and a power supply 203. The resistance wire 201 is connected to the power supply 203 via the power controller 202. The resistance wire 201 is fixed to the top of the confining pressure chamber 106 and arranged around the rock sample 4. The power controller 202 controls the power of the resistance wire 201, adjusting the heating rate and amplitude. Several support rods are circumferentially arranged at the top of the confining pressure chamber 106, and the resistance wire 201 is wound around these support rods.
[0065] The resistance wires 201 are arranged around the rock sample 4 and cooperate with the confining pressure liquid in the confining pressure chamber 106. The resistance wires 201 around the rock sample 4 heat the confining pressure liquid in the confining pressure chamber 106, and the confining pressure liquid then conducts heat to the rock sample 4. The confining pressure liquid wraps the rock sample 4, which can quickly and evenly heat the confining pressure liquid and the rock sample 4 to the set temperature value.
[0066] The liquid nitrogen cold shock unit is used to transfer the cold energy generated by the vaporization of liquid nitrogen to the rock sample 4.
[0067] The liquid nitrogen cold shock unit includes a liquid nitrogen storage tank 301 , a multi-way valve 302 , a cooling hollow column and a vacuum pump 304 .
[0068] The liquid nitrogen storage tank 301 is filled with liquid nitrogen. The liquid outlet of the liquid nitrogen storage tank 301 is connected to the liquid inlet of the multi-way valve 302 via a liquid inlet pipeline. Several liquid outlets of the multi-way valve 302 are connected to the cooling hollow columns via liquid infusion pipelines. The cooling hollow columns are located in the confining pressure chamber 106. Several cooling hollow columns are arranged around the rock sample 4. The cooling hollow columns are connected to the vacuum pump 304 via an air outlet pipeline.
[0069] The cooling hollow columns are arranged around the rock sample 4 and cooperate with the confining pressure liquid in the confining pressure chamber 106. The cooling hollow columns around the rock sample 4 cool the confining pressure liquid in the confining pressure chamber 106, and the confining pressure liquid in the confining pressure chamber 106 then transfers the cold energy to the rock sample 4. The confining pressure liquid wraps the rock sample 4, which can quickly and evenly reduce the confining pressure liquid and the rock sample 4 to the set temperature value.
[0070] The cooling hollow column is divided into a liquid storage chamber 3032 and a vaporization chamber 3034. A liquid infusion line connects to the liquid storage chamber 3032, while a gas outlet line connects to the gasification chamber 3034. The liquid storage chamber 3032 and the gasification chamber 3034 are connected via a transition line. The liquid infusion line is equipped with a high-frequency solenoid valve 3031 for liquid inlet, a high-frequency solenoid valve 3033 for gasification, and a high-frequency solenoid valve 3035 for exhaust. The sidewalls of the gasification chamber 3034 are made of a highly thermally conductive material to efficiently absorb external energy.
[0071] Before liquid nitrogen is injected into the vaporization chamber 3034 , the vaporization chamber 3034 is first evacuated by the vacuum pump 304 .
[0072] By controlling the opening and closing frequency, number and duration of the high-frequency solenoid valve 3031 for liquid inlet, the high-frequency solenoid valve 3033 for vaporization and the high-frequency solenoid valve 3035 for exhaust, the liquid inlet frequency, vaporization frequency and exhaust frequency are controlled, and a cycle is operated. By controlling the cycle speed and the number of cycles, the heat absorption speed and heat absorption energy of the vaporization chamber 3034 are controlled.
[0073] The solenoid valve controller 305 is connected to the liquid inlet high-frequency solenoid valve 3031, the vaporization high-frequency solenoid valve 3033 and the exhaust high-frequency solenoid valve 3035 via signal cables to control the opening and closing frequency, number and duration of each high-frequency solenoid valve.
[0074] The liquid nitrogen first flows into the liquid storage chamber 3032, and then flows into the vacuum gasification chamber 3034 through the liquid storage chamber 3032. The liquid nitrogen is converted from liquid to gas in the gasification chamber 3034, and the heat in the confined pressure chamber 106 is absorbed by the phase change of nitrogen gas, thereby reducing the temperature in the confined pressure chamber 106; and then discharged through the exhaust high-frequency electromagnetic valve 3035 and the vacuum pump 304. The gasification chamber 3034 of the cooling hollow column realizes cold shock on the rock sample 4 in the confined pressure chamber 106.
[0075] The sensor device is used to monitor and collect the mechanical state data of the rock sample 4 and the temperature change of the environment in which the rock sample 4 is located.
[0076] The sensor components include temperature sensors, stress sensors, strain sensors and acoustic emission sensors, and the sensor component signals are connected to a data acquisition unit (computer).
[0077] A high-temperature cold shock triaxial test method, using the high-temperature cold shock triaxial test apparatus described above in this embodiment, includes the following steps:
[0078] Step 1: Rock sample installation
[0079] After the rock sample 4 and the loading pad 105 are sealed and wrapped, they are placed on the groove of the loading base 111. The lifting cylinder 109 drives the confining pressure chamber 106 to descend, so that the lower end of the confining pressure chamber 106 is sealed and connected to the edge of the loading base 111.
[0080] Step 2: Apply axial pressure and confining pressure
[0081] The axial pressure cylinder 102 drives the loading pressure head 104 to act on the upper end of the rock sample 4 through the loading shaft 103, applying initial axial pressure to the rock sample 4. The confining pressure pump 108 injects the set confining pressure fluid into the confining pressure chamber 106 to apply confining pressure to the rock sample 4.
[0082] Step 3: Heating and insulation
[0083] Turn on the power supply 203 and control the resistance wire 201 to heat the confining fluid through the power controller 202. The confining fluid transfers heat to the rock sample 4, so that the confining fluid and the rock sample 4 are heated to the set temperature and maintained.
[0084] Step 4: Cooling shock
[0085] The liquid nitrogen in the liquid nitrogen storage tank 301 is intermittently injected into the gasification chamber 3034 of the cooling hollow column to gasify and absorb heat, so as to reduce the temperature of the confining pressure liquid and the rock sample 4 and perform a cold shock on the rock sample 4.
[0086] Specifically, the solenoid valve controller 305 is connected to the liquid inlet high-frequency solenoid valve 3031, the vaporization high-frequency solenoid valve 3033 and the exhaust high-frequency solenoid valve 3035 via signal cables to control the rapid opening and closing of the liquid inlet high-frequency solenoid valve 3031, the vaporization high-frequency solenoid valve 3033 and the exhaust high-frequency solenoid valve 3035.
[0087] The high-frequency liquid inlet solenoid valve 3031 opens, the high-frequency vaporization solenoid valve 3033 closes, and the liquid nitrogen in the liquid nitrogen storage tank 301 enters the liquid storage chamber 3032. The liquid storage chamber 3032 acts as a buffer and pressure stabilizer, completing the liquid inlet operation. The high-frequency liquid inlet solenoid valve 3031 closes, the high-frequency vaporization solenoid valve 3033 opens, and the high-frequency exhaust solenoid valve 3035 closes. The liquid nitrogen enters the vaporization chamber 3034 from the liquid storage chamber 3032. The liquid nitrogen vaporizes and absorbs heat, causing the temperature in the vaporization chamber 3034 to drop sharply. The vaporization chamber 3034 absorbs heat from the confining pressure liquid and rock sample 4 in the confining pressure chamber 106, rapidly reducing the temperature of the confining pressure liquid and rock sample 4, completing the vaporization heat absorption operation and achieving a cold shock to the rock sample 4. The exhaust high-frequency solenoid valve 3035 is opened, the liquid inlet high-frequency solenoid valve 3031 is opened, and the gasification high-frequency solenoid valve 3033 is closed. Under the action of the vacuum pump 304, nitrogen is discharged through the gas outlet pipe, and liquid nitrogen continues to enter the liquid storage chamber 3032 from the liquid nitrogen storage tank 301, completing the exhaust and liquid inlet operations.
[0088] The solenoid valve controller 305 controls the opening and closing frequency, number of times and duration of the liquid inlet high-frequency solenoid valve 3031, the vaporization high-frequency solenoid valve 3033 and the exhaust high-frequency solenoid valve 3035, thereby controlling the frequency, number of times and duration of the vaporization heat absorption of liquid nitrogen in the vaporization chamber 3034, and ultimately accurately controlling the cooling rate and amplitude.
[0089] Step 5: Rock sample loading
[0090] After the rock sample 4 has undergone the test-set confining pressure, temperature increase, cold shock cooling, the rock sample 4 is continuously loaded using the loading unit;
[0091] During steps 2 to 5, the sensor device monitors and collects the mechanical state data of the rock sample 4 and the temperature change of the environment in which the rock sample 4 is located in real time.
[0092] Specifically, the temperature sensor is used to monitor and collect the ambient temperature of the rock sample 4 in real time, the stress sensor and strain sensor are used to collect the stress and strain data of the rock sample 4 during the stress and high-temperature cold shock process, and the tiny stress changes and deformation of the rock sample 4 are recorded in real time. The acoustic emission sensor is used to record the acoustic emission parameters of the rock sample 4 in real time to provide accurate data for subsequent mechanical analysis.
[0093] Step 6: Rock sample removal
[0094] The confining pressure pump 108 discharges the confining pressure liquid in the confining pressure chamber 106, and the lifting cylinder 109 drives the confining pressure chamber 106 to rise. The rock sample 4 is removed and the failure mode of the rock sample 4 is observed. By analyzing the mechanical properties data of the rock sample 4 during the entire high-temperature cold shock and loading process, the influence of the coupling effect of confining pressure and high-temperature cold shock on the mechanical properties and damage of the rock is obtained. The test ends.
[0095] So far, the present embodiment has been described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Based on the above description, those skilled in the art should have a clear understanding of the high-temperature cold shock triaxial test device and method of the present invention. The high-temperature cold shock triaxial test apparatus and method of the present invention disposes a cooling hollow column (gasification chamber 3034) in the confining pressure chamber 106, utilizes the phase change of liquid nitrogen to absorb the heat of the confining pressure liquid, thereby reducing the temperature of the confining pressure liquid and the rock sample 4 in the confining pressure chamber 106, and realizes precise control of the frequency and total amount of liquid nitrogen vaporization through the control of the liquid inlet high-frequency solenoid valve 3031, the gasification high-frequency solenoid valve 3033, and the exhaust high-frequency solenoid valve 3035, thereby realizing precise control of the cooling rate and cooling amplitude. In addition, the liquid nitrogen vaporizes quickly, and there is no delay in single gasification energy absorption, which effectively solves the problem of large time delay and difficulty in precise control of cooling rate and cooling amplitude in traditional water cooling. It is better used for studying the influence of the coupling of pressure and high-temperature cold shock on the mechanical properties and failure mode of rock, and provides more accurate data support and theoretical basis for rock mechanical response analysis under complex environments in engineering. The installation of the rock sample 4 and the operation of temperature heating, heat preservation, and cooling shock are simple, and the cooling rate and amplitude can be accurately controlled, so that the test objectives can be easily and accurately achieved.

10. A high temperature cold shock triaxial test method, using the high temperature cold shock triaxial test device according to any one of claims 1 to 9, characterized in that: The steps include: Step 1: Rock sample installation After the rock sample and the loading pad are sealed and wrapped, they are placed on the groove of the loading base. The lifting cylinder drives the confining pressure chamber down so that the lower end of the confining pressure chamber is sealed and connected to the edge of the loading base. Step 2: Apply axial pressure and confining pressure The axial pressure cylinder drives the loading pressure head to act on the upper end of the rock sample through the loading shaft, applying initial axial pressure to the rock sample. The confining pressure pump injects the set confining pressure fluid into the confining pressure chamber to apply confining pressure to the rock sample. Step 3: Heating and insulation Turn on the power supply, and use the power controller to control the resistance wire to heat the confining fluid. The heat is transferred to the rock sample through the confining fluid, so that the confining fluid and rock sample are heated to the set temperature and maintained; Step 4: Cooling shock Liquid nitrogen in the liquid nitrogen storage tank is intermittently injected into the gasification chamber of the cooling hollow column to gasify and absorb heat, thereby reducing the temperature of the confining pressure liquid and the rock sample and performing cold shock on the rock sample; Step 5: Rock sample loading After the rock sample has undergone the test-set confining pressure, temperature increase, cold shock and cooling, the rock sample is continuously loaded using the loading unit; During steps 2 to 5, the sensor device monitors and collects the mechanical state data of the rock sample and the temperature change of the environment in which the rock sample is located in real time; Step 6: Rock sample removal The confining pressure pump discharges the confining pressure liquid in the confining pressure chamber, the lifting cylinder drives the confining pressure chamber to rise, the rock sample is removed, and the test ends.
