[0054] Noun explanation:

[0056] Water storage rate: is a parameter describing the ability of sediment to store or release pore water when the water head changes, reflecting the sensitivity of sediment to pore water volume change.

[0057] Water head: is a core physical quantity describing the energy state of fluid, which can be understood as the total mechanical energy possessed by unit weight of fluid.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 The simulation experiment device based on the seabed sediment 11 sample provided by the embodiment of the application is described. The simulation experiment device comprises: a sand tank container 1 having a main cavity 101 for loading the seabed sediment 11 sample and in-situ seawater 16; a first container 2 arranged at the upper portion of the sand tank container 1 and having a first cavity 201 in communication with the main cavity 101; a first monitoring instrument 4 arranged in the first cavity 201 and used for monitoring the water level change of the free water surface; a second container 3 arranged at the bottom of the sand tank container 1 and having a second cavity 301 in communication with the main cavity 101; a second monitoring instrument 5 arranged in the second cavity 301 and used for monitoring the pore water head fluctuation response; and a tide simulation device used for adjusting the water level of the seabed sediment 11 sample in the main cavity 101. For example, the tide simulation device is used for periodically adjusting the water level of the seabed sediment 11 sample in the main cavity 101 according to a preset period.

[0059] Specifically, the sand tank container 1 has a main cavity 101 for loading the seabed sediment 11 sample and in-situ seawater 16, and the in-situ seawater 16 is the seawater collected from the place where the seabed sediment 11 sample is collected. After the seabed sediment 11 sample and the in-situ seawater 16 in the main cavity 101 are left to stand, they are divided into a sediment 11 filling area and a top free water layer area from bottom to top. For example, the sand tank container 1 can be in a cylindrical shape and can be made of transparent organic glass (PMMA) and has good corrosion resistance and pressure resistance. The height of the sand tank container 1 is 1.5 meters, the bottom diameter is 0.4 meters, and the wall thickness is about 8 millimeters.

[0060] The sand tank container 1 has an opening at the top, and the seabed sediment 11 sample can be placed into the main cavity 101 through the opening. A detachable first cover 102 is arranged on the sand tank container 1 and used for sealing the opening at the top of the sand tank container 1 and preventing the experimental high-salinity water body from volatilizing, being contaminated or leaking during operation. An exhaust hole is reserved in the middle of the first cover 102 to facilitate air pressure adjustment. The first cover 102 can be made of organic glass (PMMA) material and has a thickness of 10 mm. The outer diameter of the first cover 102 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the opening at the top of the sand tank container 1, and a high-elasticity silicone rubber sealing ring is arranged at the edge of the first cover 102. The first cover 102 is tightly combined with the sand tank container 1 through an external pressure type knob design to improve the sealing performance.

[0061] A drain valve 103 is arranged at the bottom of the sand tank container 1 and used for discharging the seabed sediment 11 sample and sampling from the bottom of the sand tank container 1. For example, the drain valve 103 is a straight-through PVC material ball valve with an inner diameter of 10 millimeters and strong corrosion resistance and is suitable for the experimental water body containing salt. The drain port is in communication with the bottom of the main cavity 101 through a short pipe, so that the bottom water body can be smoothly discharged under the condition of no disturbance.

[0062] Specifically, the first container 2 can be connected with the sand tank container 1 through a horizontal conduit, the first container 2 has a first cavity 201, and the first cavity 201 is communicated with the main cavity 101 through the horizontal conduit. For example, the first container 2 is arranged at a position about 1.3 meters away from the bottom of the sand tank container 1. The first container 2 can adopt a rectangular transparent columnar structure, has an inner diameter of about 10 cm, a height of 15 cm, and is provided with a detachable second cover 202 at the top. A set of monitoring instruments capable of monitoring water level changes in real time are fixedly installed in the first cavity 201, which are used for continuously recording the dynamic changes of the free water surface with the input of tides. The design of the first container 2 can realize synchronous linkage with the water level of the main cavity 101, facilitate non-contact water level observation, and ensure measurement accuracy.

[0063] The monitoring instrument can be a Diver monitoring instrument, which has a length of about 12 cm, has high resolution (±0.1 cm) and high frequency recording capability (interval can be set to 1-360 seconds), can realize dynamic capture of amplitude attenuation and phase delay characteristics in the propagation process of water head disturbance, and is used for subsequent parameter calculation and analysis.

[0064] The second container 3 is arranged at the bottom position of the sand tank container 1, and the structure size of the second container 3 can be consistent with that of the first container 2. The second container 3 can be connected with the sand tank container 1 through a horizontally arranged first conduit 12, the second container 3 has a second cavity 301, and the second cavity 301 is communicated with the main cavity 101 through the first conduit 12. The second cavity 301 is also provided with a Diver monitoring instrument, which can be used for recording the fluctuation response process of the bottom pore water pressure of the sediment 11. The third cover 302 is arranged at the top of the second container 3, which is convenient for equipment replacement and sealing operation.

[0065] A water inlet hole with a diameter of 2 cm is arranged on the detachable second cover 202 and the third cover 302, which is used for seawater injection and seawater extraction, and the water inlet hole can be sealed by a sealing plug. The seawater injection is to prevent air from existing at the top of the first container 2 and the second container 3 after the seabed sediment 11 sample is loaded into the sand tank container 1; and the seawater extraction is to prevent residual seawater from existing at the bottom of the first container 2 and the second container 3 after the experiment is completed. The second cover 202 and the third cover 302 are made of transparent organic glass (PMMA), which is provided with threads and is embedded with a silica gel sealing ring at the edge, so that the first container 2 and the second container 3 are completely sealed and have no leakage during the experiment.

[0066] By setting the first container 2 on the upper part of the sand tank container 1, the second container 3 on the bottom part, and placing the first monitoring instrument 4 in the first container 2 and the second monitoring instrument 5 in the second container 3, non-contact monitoring is realized, the problem of disturbance to the original structure caused by directly inserting the monitoring instrument into the sediment 11 is effectively avoided, and the data stability and measurement accuracy are improved. The layered arrangement scheme can clearly reflect the propagation process of the tidal head signal in the sediment 11, including phase lag, amplitude attenuation, and nonlinear response characteristics, and is an important support means for inverting the sea tide load coefficient and the water storage rate and other parameters.

[0067] The tidal simulation device acts on the free water layer region and can drive the free water layer to periodically rise and fall, thereby simulating the tidal process.

[0068] The simulation experiment device of the embodiment can reproduce the tidal head disturbance process under controlled conditions and monitor the response of the sediment 11 pore water and the water level of the free water surface under the action of the tide, thereby obtaining key data for solving the sea tide load coefficient and the water storage rate. The simulation experiment device of the embodiment effectively solves the technical bottleneck that some hydrogeological parameters are difficult to obtain under the current marine environment conditions, and constructs an experimental device with controllability and repeatability, which can be used to support the quantitative analysis and parameterization research of the submarine groundwater dynamic process.

[0069] As an optional implementation, the tidal simulation device comprises: a first saltwater tank 7 arranged on the upper part of the sand tank container 1, having a third cavity 701, and the third cavity 701 is in communication with the main cavity 101; a second saltwater tank 8 having a fourth cavity 801, and the fourth cavity 801 is in communication with the third cavity 701 through the first conduit 12 and the second conduit 13 arranged between the second saltwater tank 8 and the first saltwater tank 7; a first peristaltic pump 9 arranged on the first conduit 12, used for injecting seawater in the fourth cavity 801 into the third cavity 701; and a second peristaltic pump 10 arranged on the second conduit 13, used for pumping seawater in the third cavity 701 to the fourth cavity 801.

[0070] The first brackish water tank 7 and the second brackish water tank 8 are different in division but interact with each other. The first brackish water tank 7 is connected with the upper water body of the sand tank container 1 through the fourth conduit 15, and is a "water level driven pool" simulating tidal disturbance. The water level change in the first brackish water tank 7 will directly affect the height change of the free water surface in the main cavity 101, so as to realize the reproduction of tidal rise and fall in the experiment. The second brackish water tank 8 is not directly connected with the main cavity, but is used as a power regulation source. The first peristaltic pump 9 and the second peristaltic pump 10 are used to periodically pump or supply water from the second brackish water tank 8 to the first brackish water tank 7, so that the water level in the first brackish water tank 7 produces a set fluctuation, and is naturally and synchronously conducted to the free water surface in the main cavity 101, so as to realize the simulation of sea tide rise and fall. The design avoids the disturbance risk caused by the peristaltic pump directly acting on the water body in the main cavity 101, so that the water level fluctuation process in the main cavity 101 is more stable, and the flow velocity is more gentle, which is beneficial to the original structure of the sediment 11 and the real record of the pore water response.

[0071] For example, the first brackish water tank 7 and the second brackish water tank 8 are both made of organic glass (PMMA) material, which has strong corrosion resistance and is suitable for high salinity experimental water body. The volume of each water tank is 20 liters. The first brackish water tank 7 is provided with a detachable fourth cover 702 at the top, and the second brackish water tank 8 is provided with a detachable fifth cover 802 at the top, which is used to seal the brackish water tank and prevent the experimental high salinity water body from evaporating, polluting or leaking during operation. The sealing cover is made of organic glass (PMMA) material with a thickness of about 8 mm. The outer edge is provided with a corrosion-resistant high-elasticity silicone sealing ring, which is tightly fitted with the upper opening of the brackish water tank by screwing and pressing. The fourth cover 702 and the fifth cover 802 are provided with a central exhaust hole for convenient pressure adjustment, and have good universality and maintenance convenience.

[0072] The first peristaltic pump 9 and the second peristaltic pump 10 are programmable peristaltic pumps. The programmable peristaltic pump supports custom flow output and cycle control. The flow control range is 0-300 mL / min, and the adjustment accuracy is better than ±1%. Through accurate control of the flow, different tidal waveforms, amplitudes, periods and running times of tidal elements can be set. The first conduit 12 and the second conduit 13 can be hoses made of rubber with an inner diameter of 6 mm and a wall thickness of 1 mm. The hose joint is a quick plug design, which is easy to install.

[0073] The embodiment builds an independent, buffered and stable tidal disturbance boundary control system through the first brackish water tank 7, the second brackish water tank 8 and the sand tank container 1, effectively avoiding the problems of uneven water level disturbance and violent flow field change caused by traditional direct water injection or liquid pumping and drainage, and realizing stable and controllable tidal simulation. The periodic control function of the programmable peristaltic pump can output stable, continuous and waveform controllable water head input signals, so that the liquid surface of the main cavity 101 presents a periodic oscillation in the form of real sea tide, and the accuracy and repeatability of the tidal simulation experiment are guaranteed.

[0074] As an optional embodiment, the simulation experiment device of the embodiment further comprises a filtering assembly arranged at the bottom of the sand tank container 1 and used to prevent the seabed sediment 11 sample from entering the second cavity 301.

[0075] Specifically, the third conduit 14 is arranged between the second container 3 and the sand tank container 1, and the filtering assembly has a strip-shaped structure matched with the inner diameter of the third conduit 14.

[0076] The filtering assembly can prevent the sediment 11 from entering the second cavity 301 and disturbing the experimental results. The filtering assembly can be made of a 304 stainless steel wire mesh 6, has a strip-shaped structure, has a length consistent with the third conduit 14, about 10 cm, a width of about 1.5 cm, a thickness of about 2 mm, and a pore size of 0.1 mm. The filtering assembly is fixed in an embedded push-fit manner, so that the filtering assembly does not shift or curl under the impact of water flow. Compared with the traditional sheet-shaped port filter, the filtering assembly can ensure uniform water flow distribution, large filtering area, and small flow resistance, and is particularly suitable for continuous pore water pumping and sampling operations under simulated tidal disturbance conditions, while ensuring the stability of the sediment structure and the reliability of the device operation. If necessary, the wire mesh 6 can be pulled out for washing or replacement, and the structure is simple and convenient to maintain.

[0077] Referring to Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides a hydrological parameter determination method based on a seabed sediment 11 sample. The method is based on the simulation experiment device described above, and the method comprises a pre-experiment preparation stage and an experiment stage.

[0078] The pre-experiment preparation stage is used for sediment 11 filling and system initialization. Specifically, before the experiment starts, in-situ seabed sediment 11 samples are collected in a typical intertidal zone or nearshore area. A stainless steel sampling cylinder or a PVC column sampler can be used as a sampling tool to maintain the original structure and water content of the sediment 11 as much as possible. After the sample is brought back to the laboratory, the first cover 102 at the top of the cylindrical sand tank container 1 is opened, the seabed sediment 11 sample is loaded into the sand tank container 1, and the total filling height can be selected as 1.0 m, and 0.5 m is reserved at the top as a free water layer.

[0079] After filling, the first container 2 and the second container 3 are respectively installed with the first monitor 4 and the second monitor 5 capable of measuring the water level. The first container 2 is located near the free water surface area, used to monitor the water level change of the free water surface in the main cavity 101. The second container 3 is located at the bottom of the sand tank container 1, used to monitor the fluctuation response signal of the bottom pore water head of the sediment 11. Before placing, the first monitor 4 and the second monitor 5 are started by computer and the monitoring frequency (5s once) is set. During installation, the first monitor 4 and the second monitor 5 are fixed at the bottom of the first container 2 and the second container 3 to avoid the influence of water pressure change on data quality. Then the first container 2 and the second container 3 are sealed and tightened with the third cover 302 and the fourth cover 702.

[0080] After preparation, seawater collected in situ is injected into the sand tank container 1, the first saltwater tank 7 and the second saltwater tank 8. To avoid disturbing the sediment 11, a water injection funnel or slow-flow water inlet can be used. The fourth conduit 15 is connected at one end to the lower part of the first saltwater tank 7 and at the other end to the water body at the upper part of the sand tank container 1, so that the main cavity 101 and the first saltwater tank 7 are in liquid level isohypse communication. Since the first conduit 12 and the second conduit 13 between the second saltwater tank 8 and the first saltwater tank 7 are clamped by the first peristaltic pump 9 and the second peristaltic pump 10, the liquid cannot flow naturally at this stage. After all the connections are completed, the device is left to stand for 10 minutes, and the liquid level is balanced. The first container 2 and the second container 3 are automatically filled without obvious bubbles, and the device is checked for no water leakage.

[0081] In the experimental stage, the determination method comprises steps S110-S140. The determination method can be applied to electronic devices such as computers and mobile phones with certain computing power.

[0082] S110: control the first peristaltic pump 9 and the second peristaltic pump 10 to alternately run a single cycle for multiple tidal cycles; one tidal cycle is formed by one single cycle of the first peristaltic pump 9 and one single cycle of the second peristaltic pump 10.

[0083] Specifically, after the device is stable as a whole, the first peristaltic pump 9 and the second peristaltic pump 10 are started, and the water flow exchange between the first salt water tank 7 and the second salt water tank 8 is controlled. One of the two peristaltic pumps pumps water, and the other one injects water. They are set to run alternately in a single cycle, that is, the first peristaltic pump 9 runs for one single cycle and stops for one single cycle. During the stop of the first peristaltic pump 9 for one single cycle, the second peristaltic pump 10 runs for one single cycle, forming a periodic supply and discharge alternation control. The pump body can be set to output flow (recommended 0-300 mL / min) and cycle length. By adjusting the flow and cycle, the water level in the first salt water tank 7 is simulated to present periodic changes of different amplitudes and frequencies. Since the first salt water tank 7 is in communication with the main cavity 101, the water level change will be synchronously transmitted to the free water surface in the sand tank container 1 in real time, forming the simulated tidal fluctuation in the main cavity 101.

[0084] Each experiment lasts for 20 complete tidal cycles. To avoid the influence of initial disturbance on the data, the first 5 cycles are not analyzed, which are regarded as the "pre-steady state stage". The last 5 cycles are also excluded. Finally, the data of the middle 10 continuous cycles are selected as the effective analysis interval to ensure the stability and representativeness of the data. During the entire experiment, the liquid level should be observed regularly to check whether there is water leakage at the interfaces of the conduits, and the water level in the main cavity 101 should be stable to avoid sudden drops.

[0085] S120: Obtain the free water surface water level change data and the pore water head fluctuation response data collected by the first monitor 4 and the second monitor 5 at a preset frequency within at least one tidal cycle.

[0086] Specifically, after the experiment is completed, the two programmable peristaltic pumps are first turned off, and then the drain valve 103 at the bottom of the sand tank container 1 is opened to completely drain the remaining seawater in the main cavity 101. After confirming that the water in the main cavity 101 is basically drained, the covers of the first container 2 and the second container 3 installed on one side of the sand tank container 1 are unscrewed, and the two Diver monitors are slowly taken out. The Diver monitors taken out are connected to a computer through the interface module provided by the original factory, and the complete time series of water head data is exported by calling the matching reading software.

[0087] S130: Determine the amplitude ratio and phase difference between the free water surface and the bottom pore water according to the free water surface water level change data and the pore water head fluctuation response data.

[0088] According to the exported free water surface water level change data and the pore water head fluctuation response data, the amplitude ratio and the phase difference between the free water surface and the bottom pore water can be determined.

[0089] S140: Obtain the aquifer thickness and the permeability coefficient of the seabed sediment 11 sample in the sand tank container 1.

[0090] Specifically, the permeability coefficient can be obtained by a common drawdown test, which can be performed at the sampling point or in the laboratory. After obtaining the permeability coefficient, it is input into the computer.

[0091] The aquifer thickness is the thickness of the sediment 11. In this embodiment, the thickness of the sediment 11 is 1 m, and thus the aquifer thickness is 1 m. The aquifer thickness is also input into the computer.

[0092] S150: According to the amplitude ratio, the phase difference, the aquifer thickness, the permeability coefficient, and the tidal period, the sea tide load coefficient and the water storage rate are determined.

[0093] In this embodiment, the sea tide load coefficient and the water storage rate are solved by controlling two peristaltic pumps to simulate the tidal process alternately, and by obtaining the pore water head fluctuation response data and the free water level change data under the condition of tidal water level disturbance. An effective method for directly calculating these key hydrological parameters under laboratory conditions is provided, which fills the technical gap in related research.

[0094] As an optional implementation, S130 includes S131-S134.

[0095] S131: According to the free water level change data, a free water level change curve is obtained.

[0096] Specifically, based on the time series of the free water level change data, a free water level change curve can be drawn. The free water level change curve reflects the change of the free water level with time.

[0097] S132: According to the pore water head fluctuation response data, a pore water head fluctuation response curve is obtained.

[0098] Specifically, based on the time series of the pore water head fluctuation response data, a pore water head fluctuation response curve can be drawn. The pore water head fluctuation response curve reflects the change of the pore water head fluctuation response with time.

[0099] S133: According to the free water level change curve and the pore water head fluctuation response curve, the phase difference between the free water surface and the bottom pore water fluctuation is determined.

[0100] The phase difference reflects the time lag between the main frequency responses of the two curves, and can reflect the response lag characteristics of the sediment 11 pore water to the tidal water level fluctuation.

[0101] S134: According to the amplitude of the free water level change curve and the amplitude of the pore water head fluctuation response curve, the amplitude ratio of the free water surface and the bottom pore water is determined.

[0102] As an optional implementation, for S150, the embodiment develops a solver to calculate the tidal loading coefficient and the storage coefficient.

[0103] Based on the elastic aquifer theory, the one-dimensional groundwater wave mathematical model for the simulation experiment device is as follows:

[0104]

[0105] H(b,t)=H s (t)=Acos(ωt) (2)

[0106]

[0107] where z represents the spatial position in the vertical direction, H(b,t) represents the pressure head [L] at z=b at t. S S ,K and b represent the storage coefficient [L -1 ], the vertical permeability coefficient [LT -1 ], and the thickness of the aquifer [L], respectively. e T represents the tidal loading coefficient (dimensionless), H s (t) represents the tidal water head [L], A represents the amplitude of the tidal variation [L], and ω is the angular velocity (or frequency) of the tide [T -1 ]. The reference surface of the elevation is at the bottom of the aquifer.

[0108] Equation (1) shows that the groundwater level fluctuation in the seabed aquifer is directly affected by the tidal level change at the seabed boundary (see equation 2) and is affected by the elastic compression and expansion of the aquifer caused by the tidal load (the process is related to the tidal efficiency). Equation (3) gives the no-flow boundary condition of the impermeable interface at the bottom of the aquifer. The analytical solution of equations (1)-(3) is as follows:

[0109] H(z,t)=ARe{e iωt [T e +(1-T e )sech((1+i)ab)cosh((1+i)az)]},0<z<b (4)

[0110] where Re represents the real part of the complex number in the parentheses, cosh is the hyperbolic cosine function, sech is the hyperbolic secant function, i represents the imaginary unit (i 2 =-1), and when z=0, equation (4) can be further simplified as:

[0111] H(z=0,t)=ARe{e iωt [T e +(1-T esech((1 + i)a b )]} (5)

[0112] Using the data collected by two Diver monitors, the tidal fluctuation equation of the free water surface and the tidal fluctuation equation of the bottom pore water are as follows:

[0113] Free water surface: H s (b, t) = A1cosωt (6)

[0114] Bottom pore water:

[0115] Where A1 and A2 represent the wave amplitude [L] in the free water surface and the bottom pore water respectively; ω represents the angular velocity (or frequency) [T -1 ] corresponding to the oscillation; φ represents the phase difference (dimensionless) generated in the fluctuation process of the free water surface and the bottom pore water.

[0116] Here, the complex expression is recorded as:

[0117] Z = T e +(1-T e )sech((1+i)a b ) (8)

[0118] The modulus |Z| of this complex number Z represents the proportion of the bottom water level amplitude relative to the free water surface, and the angle arg(Z) of this complex number Z represents the phase lag of the bottom water level (unit: radian), so equation (6) can be written as:

[0119] H(z = 0, t) = A1|Z|cos(ωt+arg(Z)) (9)

[0120] From this, the amplitude equation and the phase equation about the sea tide load coefficient T e and the water storage rate S S are as follows:

[0121] A r = |T e +(1-T e )sech((1+i)a b )| (10)

[0122]

[0123] Where the amplitude ratio A r = A2 / A1, the amplitude of the free water surface A1, the amplitude of the bottom pore water A2, and the phase difference The permeability coefficient K of the aquifer and the height b of the aquifer are known parameters.

[0124] After obtaining the above parameters, they can be put into formulas (10) and (11) to achieve T e and S S To solve the value of . For this purpose, this embodiment has developed a solver separately, and the solver visual interface is as follows Figure 3 As shown, enter the amplitude ratio A obtained in the solver window r , phase difference Permeability coefficient K (unit: m / s), aquifer thickness b (unit: m), tidal period T (s), click the calculate button to get the corresponding T e and S S The value of .
