Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of soil monitoring, in particular to a soil water absorption and evaporation cycle test device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Soil cracking is a key scientific problem in the fields of ecological geotechnical engineering and water environment. In particular, in arid environments, soil dry shrinkage cracking not only causes rapid soil water loss, vegetation growth obstruction, and shallow soil block sliding instability of slopes, but also accelerates the migration and diffusion of pollutants through the cracking channels. When rainwater or surface runoff carrying pollutants (such as agricultural non-point source pollutants, industrial leakage pollutants, etc.) seeps into the soil, the preferential flow path formed by the cracking significantly improves the penetration efficiency of pollutants into deep soil and groundwater, posing a potential threat to water environment safety. Therefore, studying the evaporation and infiltration processes of water before and after soil cracking is not only an important theoretical basis for revealing soil hydrological processes, but also a key prerequisite for analyzing the migration and transformation rules of pollutants in the soil-water system.

[0003] Current soil column test research or test design mostly focuses on the evaporation and infiltration of soil in the vertical direction. Due to the small size and strong boundary effect of the circular column top opening, the cracking effect of soil in the vertical soil column after drying is not good. The existing device cannot fully simulate the evaporation and infiltration process of layered soil after drying and cracking, and it is difficult to accurately capture the influence mechanism of the cracking channel on pollutant migration. Moreover, there is a lack of related research on lateral infiltration and pollutant migration in the horizontal direction. Although a few scholars have attempted to study the horizontal infiltration process of soil by placing the soil column horizontally, this method cannot obtain the cracking damage effect of soil during the drying stage, nor can it simulate the migration path of pollutants under the coupling effect of cracking and water. In addition, the temperature field generated by the heat source (incandescent lamp) in the traditional way is unevenly distributed in space, which is quite different from the actual environment. The movement scale of the soil wetting front through manual reading has visual angle errors, which restricts the in-depth study of the collaborative migration mechanism of soil water and pollutants.

The closed cover box 21 is the outer shell of the soil moisture infiltration and evaporation cycle test device. Inside the closed cover box 21, there are a buried heating component 23, a weighing platform 24, an acrylic bottom plate 25 for supporting the test sample and water body, and a high-definition camera 217. The buried heating component 23 is embedded in the cement layer at the bottom of the closed cover box 21. The buried heating component 23 includes an electric heating wire, a three-dimensional heat conduction pipe network, and an infrared heating plate on the top of the three-dimensional heat conduction pipe network. The electric heating wire can be arranged in 2-4 layers. The wires in the same layer are S-shaped and coiled and fixed in the cement. The distance between each layer of wires should be greater than 2 cm. The electric heating wire needs to reserve at least 2 cm thick cement at the top and bottom. The three-dimensional heat conduction pipe network circulates a temperature-controlled liquid such as glycol solution. The infrared heating plate on the top has a wavelength of 2-15 μm which can be adjusted. The working temperature of the ground electric heating is adjusted by a temperature controller 42. The temperature controller 42 is connected to a computer system. When the ground electric heating system is made, the size of the bottom surface of the closed cover box 21 needs to be considered to ensure that the two can be embedded and closed. A temperature sensor 218 is arranged at a height of 10-20 cm above the top surface of the ground electric heating cement layer for monitoring the test environment temperature. The temperature sensor 218 is fixed on the side of the closed cover box 21 and connected to the computer system.

The internal temperature gradient of the soil such as 0.5℃ / cm and the surface radiation intensity are independently controlled to simulate the composite heat field of "soil-atmosphere interface radiation + ground temperature conduction" in the natural environment. After the cement reaches the curing strength, the weighing platform 24 is placed on the cement layer 22. After the weighing platform 24 is placed, the weighing surface is adjusted to be horizontal by the spiral foot seat of the weighing platform 24. The weight storage module of the weighing platform is connected to the computer. The computer can realize real-time recording and storage of the weight. The test sample box structure composed of the acrylic bottom plate 25 and the surrounding frame 28 is placed on the horizontal weighing platform 24. The four movable feet at the bottom of the test sample box are adjusted. The test sample box structure is in a horizontal state by observing the central position of the horizontal calibration bubble gauge at the acrylic bottom plate 25. The ground glass water-permeable partition plate one 212 and the ground glass water-permeable partition plate two 213 are placed in the card slot at the bottom of the test sample box. The ground glass water-permeable partition plate one 212 and the ground glass water-permeable partition plate two 213 are provided with elastic constraint membranes outside. The membranes are filled with air bags with adjustable air pressure. The soil swelling / shrinking stress is fed back in real time by a pressure sensor to simulate the constraint effect of the surrounding rock mass on the crack expansion in the natural environment such as the restriction of the soil on both sides of the slope by the surrounding rock mass. The coupling process of stress-crack-seepage is monitored synchronously to find a new law that "the higher the boundary constraint strength is, the smaller the crack opening is, but the faster the lateral seepage is". The size of the ground glass water-permeable partition plate can be adjusted according to the size of the experimental test sample. The width of the ground glass water-permeable partition plate one 212 is slightly smaller than the width of the card slot by 0.5 mm to facilitate insertion and removal. The width of the ground glass water-permeable partition plate two 213 is smaller than the width of the card slot by 1 cm.The second sanding water-permeable baffle 213 is fixed by the fine adjustment screw rod 210, and when the test is completed, the second sanding water-permeable baffle 213 is removed by removing the fine adjustment screw rod 210, so that the sample can be easily removed. The second sanding water-permeable baffle 213 can adjust the inclination angle of the baffle to 0°-45° by rotating the screw rod. After the first sanding water-permeable baffle 212 and the second sanding water-permeable baffle 213 are fixed, the test sample is placed in the bearing cavity 214 between the two, the sample thickness is set in advance, and the sample height is marked on the corresponding position of the sample box. The prepared soil is placed in the middle of the sample box, and the soil is lightly tamped to the preset position according to the maximum dry density standard. After the sample is completed, the valve three 29 is opened, the four movable feet 26 are adjusted again for secondary leveling, the airtight cover box 21 is fixed, after the absorption test is completed, the ground heating component 23 switch is opened, the expected test temperature is set, the exhaust fan 215 is opened to help smoothly remove the moisture in the cover box, the high-definition camera 217 is opened, the image during drying is collected, and the terminal 41 controls the temperature of the cover box and records the weight. When the weight change rate of the test sample is less than 1g / hour, it is considered that the soil drying is completed, and the test is stopped. The next cycle of absorption test of dry soil repeats the above drying test process.

[0024] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 -attached Figure 7 The wetting front scale test mechanism 3 includes a stainless steel guide rail 31 provided with a laser instrument 32 capable of linear sliding along the length direction. The laser instrument 32 can emit a vertical laser plane 33. The height of the stainless steel guide rail 31 is flat with the table surface of the weighing table 24, and the placement direction is parallel to the side wall of the enclosure frame 28. The vertical laser plane 33 is perpendicular to the viscous steel teeth 211. The laser instrument 32 is slid on the stainless steel guide rail 31 to record the wetting front scale, until the wetting front reaches the position of the second sanding water-permeable baffle 213 and the clear water seeps out. It is considered that the sample absorption stage is completed, and the test is stopped by closing the valve two 14. The high-definition camera 217 and the laser instrument 32 are closed, and the evaporation experiment process is stopped.

[0025] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 -attached Figure 4 The numerical control output mechanism 4 includes a control terminal 41 for collecting images and data.

The control terminal 41 is connected to the temperature controller 42, and the temperature controller 42 is connected to the ground heating component 23 for adjusting the temperature of the experimental environment.

[0026] Working principle: refer to the attached Figures 1-13The soil water absorption and evaporation cycle test device has a closed cover box 21, an internal buried heating component 23, a weighing platform 24, an acrylic bottom plate 25 for supporting the sample and water body, and a high-definition camera 217. The buried heating component 23 is embedded in the cement layer at the bottom of the closed cover box 21, which includes an electric heating wire, a three-dimensional heat conduction pipe network, and an infrared heating plate at the top. The electric heating wire can be arranged in 2-4 layers, and the wires in the same layer are S-shaped and fixed in the cement. The distance between each layer of wires should be greater than 2 cm. The electric heating wire needs to reserve at least 2 cm thick cement at the top and bottom. The three-dimensional heat conduction pipe network circulates a temperature-controlled liquid such as glycol solution, and the top infrared heating plate has a wavelength of 2-15 μm which can be adjusted. The working temperature of the ground electric heating is adjusted by a temperature controller 42 connected to a computer system. When making the ground electric heating system, the size of the bottom surface of the closed cover box 21 should be considered to ensure that it can be embedded and closed. A temperature sensor 218 is installed at a height of 10-20 cm above the top surface of the cement layer of the ground electric heating, which is used to monitor the test environment temperature. The temperature sensor 218 is fixed to the side of the closed cover box 21 and connected to the computer system. The value of the temperature sensor 218 tc is compared with the expected value tr input to the computer. If the difference between tc and tr is large, the computer will automatically control the temperature controller 42 to adjust the working power until tc=tr±5%, realizing the independent control of the soil internal temperature gradient such as 0.5℃ / cm and the surface radiation intensity, simulating the composite heat field of "soil-atmosphere interface radiation + ground temperature conduction" in the natural environment. After the cement reaches the curing strength, the weighing platform 24 is placed on the cement layer 22. The weighing platform 24 is adjusted to be level by its own screw seat after being placed. The weight storage module of the weighing platform is connected to the computer, which can realize real-time recording and storage of weight. The sample box structure composed of the acrylic bottom plate 25 and the surrounding frame 28 is placed on the levelled weighing platform 24. The four movable feet at the bottom of the sample box are adjusted to make the sample box structure level by observing the centralization of the horizontal calibration bubble gauge at the acrylic bottom plate 25. The ground glass water-permeable partition plate one 212 and the ground glass water-permeable partition plate two 213 are placed in the bottom clamping groove of the sample box. The elastic restraint film is added outside the ground glass water-permeable partition plate one 212 and the ground glass water-permeable partition plate two 213. The film is filled with an air bag with adjustable air pressure. The soil swelling / shrinking stress is fed back in real time by the pressure sensor to simulate the restraining effect of the surrounding rock mass on the crack expansion in the natural environment, such as the restriction of the soil on both sides of the slope by the surrounding rock mass. The coupling process of stress-crack-seepage is monitored synchronously to discover the new law that "the higher the boundary constraint strength, the smaller the crack opening but the faster the lateral seepage".
