Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydraulics research, and in particular to a simulation method for the river backwater effect based on hydraulic experiments. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of hydraulics research, the backwater effect caused by the interaction between rivers and lakes is a key issue affecting flood control scheduling, waterway management, and ecological balance. Traditional research methods mainly rely on prototype observation and numerical simulation. By deploying water level gauges and current meters to obtain field data, and combining them with numerical models, the backwater range can be simulated. Although such techniques can reflect actual hydrological processes, they are limited by the high cost of prototype observation, the long data acquisition cycle, and the simplification error of numerical models for complex boundary conditions. It is difficult to achieve high-precision and repeatable mechanism research. In particular, when quantifying the nonlinear relationship between the backwater effect and the flow ratio and riverbed roughness, existing methods lack experimental verification means for the coupling effect of multiple physical fields, resulting in significant deviations between theoretical models and engineering practice.
[0003] The limitations of existing technologies are mainly reflected in the correlation analysis between dynamic roughness and the backwater effect. Through fixed roughness flume experiments, it was found that a small change in the Manning coefficient can cause the position of the backwater front to fluctuate by ±0.5m. However, this study did not solve the problem of dynamic roughness control. In natural rivers, roughness is affected by vegetation growth, sediment deposition, etc., and it varies seasonally. However, existing experimental devices can only simulate static roughness and cannot be actively intervened. Existing technologies do not pay enough attention to the coupling effect between temperature field and backwater effect, and ignore the potential impact of water temperature stratification on water flow density and energy loss, which further limits the prediction accuracy of the model.

[0060] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0061] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0062] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.
[0063] Reference Figures 1-4 This is one embodiment of the present invention, which provides a simulation method for the river backwater effect based on hydraulic experiments, including the following steps:
[0064] S1. Construct a transparent plexiglass water tank, with an adjustable slope river channel upstream and a rectangular water tank downstream. The river flow and lake flow are controlled by independent water pumps, and flow meters are installed for calibration.
[0065] S1.1. Process transparent plexiglass into tank components and splice them together. After curing for 24 hours, conduct a full water test to obtain a properly sealed tank body.
[0066] Furthermore, transparent acrylic sheets are CNC cut into tank components that are 6 meters long, 0.5 meters wide, and 0.5 meters high. The joints are then bonded with silicone structural adhesive. After curing for 24 hours, a full water test is conducted. During the test, all joints are checked for leaks, and a sealed and qualified water tank body is obtained.
[0067] S1.2 An integrated stepper motor drive unit and ball screw transmission unit are installed upstream of the water tank body. The slope is calibrated by an electronic inclinometer to obtain a river section with an adjustable slope.
[0068] Furthermore, an STM32F407-controlled stepper motor drive unit and ball screw transmission unit are installed at the bottom upstream of the water tank. The ball screw lead is 5 mm. The slope value is measured in real time by an electronic inclinometer and compared with the target slope value. When the deviation between the measured slope value and the target slope value exceeds 0.005%, the stepper motor drive unit automatically adjusts the extension and retraction of the ball screw transmission unit until the slope value stabilizes within the target range. This results in an adjustable slope river section with a slope adjustment range of 0.05% to 0.15%. During the slope adjustment process, a laser displacement sensor is used to monitor the change in the height of the support column in real time to ensure that the slope adjustment accuracy reaches ±0.001%.
[0069] S1.3 Connect the rectangular water tank to the water tank body using a flange sealing unit to obtain the integrated rectangular water tank-water tank body.
[0070] Furthermore, a rectangular water tank measuring 1 meter × 0.5 meters × 0.5 meters is connected to the downstream end face of the water tank body via a DN150 flange. A rubber sealing ring with a Shore hardness of 60±5 is installed on the flange mating surface. All bolts are tightened evenly with a torque of 25 N·m. After the connection is completed, a sealing test is performed. Water is filled into the integrated rectangular water tank-water tank body to a working water depth of 0.4 meters and observed for 24 hours. If there is no leakage, the leakage rate is less than 0.1 liters / minute. After the sealing test is passed, the water in the integrated rectangular water tank-water tank body is drained. The flange connection is cleaned with anhydrous ethanol and dried with nitrogen for storage, thus completing the assembly of the integrated rectangular water tank-water tank body.
[0071] S1.4. The river flow is controlled by connecting the variable frequency pumping unit and the electromagnetic metering unit to the main body of the water tank through a DN50 pipeline unit.
[0072] Furthermore, a Grundfos NBG 40-125 variable frequency centrifugal pump unit and an E+H Promag 50W electromagnetic flow meter were connected to the inlet of the main water tank via a DN50 pipeline. A flow rectifier was installed at the end of the pipeline. The electromagnetic flow meter has a measurement range of 0.1-10 L / s and an accuracy of ±0.5%, outputting real-time flow values via a 4-20mA signal. The variable frequency centrifugal pump unit adjusts its speed according to a PID control algorithm, with PID parameters set to a proportional coefficient of 0.8, an integral coefficient of 0.05, and a derivative coefficient of 0.12, stabilizing the river flow within the target value of ±0.05 L / s. A 20-liter standard metering container was used for volumetric-time calibration, verifying that the electromagnetic flow meter's measurement error at a flow rate of 5.0 L / s did not exceed ±0.5%. After calibration, the control voltage values corresponding to different flow rates were recorded.
[0073] S1.5. The flow rate of the lake is controlled by a screw pumping unit and an ultrasonic metering unit, and a gate unit is installed in the outlet pipeline.
[0074] Furthermore, a NEMO SY screw pump unit and a Fuji FLR ultrasonic flow meter were connected to the bottom of a rectangular water tank via an outlet pipe. A multi-stage adjustable gate unit was installed at the end of the outlet pipe, with an opening adjustment accuracy of 0.1 mm. The ultrasonic flow meter had a measurement range of 0.1-5.0 L / s and an accuracy of ±1%, outputting real-time flow data via the Modbus-RTU protocol. The screw pump adjusted its speed according to a fuzzy control algorithm, with control parameters set to a proportional coefficient of 0.3 and an integral coefficient of 0.01, stabilizing the lake flow rate within the target range of ±0.05 L / s. A 20-liter standard measuring container was used for volumetric-time calibration, verifying that the ultrasonic flow meter's measurement error at a flow rate of 2.5 L / s did not exceed ±1%. After calibration, the flow values corresponding to different gate openings were recorded.
[0075] S2. Close the lake flow, regulate the river flow, and collect benchmark water level data after the water flow stabilizes. Calculate the water surface slope and verify the deviation from the theoretical value of the Manning formula.
[0076] S2.1. The central control module sends a shutdown command to the screw pump unit, ultrasonic metering unit, and gate unit to shut off the lake flow. It also inputs an adjustment command to the integrated flow control module and uses a PID control algorithm to obtain a stable target water flow rate.
[0077] Furthermore, a shutdown command was sent to the NETZSCH NEMO SY screw pump unit, Fuji FLR ultrasonic flow meter, and multi-stage adjustable gate unit via a Siemens S7-1200 programmable logic controller to close the lake flow control channel. Subsequently, a target flow rate of 5.0 L / s was input to the integrated flow control module. A PID control algorithm with a proportional gain of 0.8, integral gain of 0.05, and derivative gain of 0.12 was used to adjust the speed of the Grundfos NBG 40-125 variable frequency centrifugal pump unit via a 4-20mA signal. The river flow rate value fed back by the E+H Promag 50W electromagnetic flow meter was monitored in real time. When the flow rate fluctuation did not exceed ±0.05 L / s for 60 consecutive seconds, a stable target flow rate was determined to have been reached. During the stabilization process, the PID control output was updated every 200 milliseconds to ensure a flow rate adjustment response time of less than 0.8 seconds. Ultimately, a stable target flow rate of 5.0 ± 0.05 L / s, meeting the Froude number similarity requirement, was obtained, providing constant flow conditions for subsequent baseline water level data acquisition.
[0078] S2.2 Based on the stable target water flow rate, the raw water level data is obtained through a capacitive water level sensor. The raw data is then filtered to calculate the average water level value of each measurement point, thus obtaining the benchmark water level data.
[0079] Furthermore, under stable target water flow conditions, 12 Honeywell 24PC capacitive water level sensors were activated to continuously collect raw water level data for 300 seconds at a sampling frequency of 100Hz. Kalman filtering algorithm was applied to the raw data to eliminate sensor noise and wave interference. The Kalman filtering parameters were set to process noise covariance and observation noise covariance. After filtering, outliers were removed by the ±3σ criterion to obtain the benchmark water level data.
[0080] S2.3 Calculate the actual measured water surface slope value based on the difference between the water level measurements at the inlet and outlet of the main body of the water tank.
[0081] Specifically, the expression is,
[0082]
[0083] Among them, WSS meas Z represents the actual measured water surface slope value. 入口 Z represents the water level measurement at the upstream inlet of the main body of the water tank. 出口 This is the water level measurement at the downstream outlet of the water tank.
[0084] S2.4. Calculate the theoretical water surface slope value according to Manning's formula.
[0085] Specifically, the expression is,
[0086]
[0087] Among them, WSS theory Here, m is the theoretical water surface slope, and Q is the Manning roughness coefficient. 河 Let A be the river flow rate, A be the cross-sectional area of the flow path, and R be the hydraulic radius.
[0088] S2.5. The relative deviation is obtained by comparing the measured slope value with the theoretical slope value.
[0089] Specifically, the expression is,
[0090]
[0091] Where δ represents the relative deviation.
[0092] S3. Turn on lake flow, set the operating conditions according to the stable target water flow gradient, calculate water level changes and collect the reference temperature field.
[0093] S3.1. The stable target water flow rate is transmitted to the lake flow control module, and the gate unit opening is dynamically adjusted based on the fuzzy control algorithm to obtain the stable water flow rate.
[0094] Furthermore, the stable target water flow rate is transmitted to the lake flow control channel composed of a NEMO SY screw pump unit and a Fuji FLR ultrasonic flow meter. Based on the fuzzy control algorithm, the opening degree of the multi-stage adjustable gate unit is dynamically adjusted. The input variable of the fuzzy control algorithm is the flow deviation, and the output variable is the gate opening increment. The control rule base contains 25 IF-THEN type rules. Mamdani type inference and centroid method are used for defuzzification. The control quantity is updated every 200 milliseconds to stabilize the lake flow rate within the target value of ±0.05 liters / second within 60 seconds. After stabilization, the correspondence between gate opening and flow rate is recorded. The entire process is monitored in real time through the Modbus-RTU protocol using ultrasonic flow meter data.
[0095] S3.2. Perform Kalman filtering on the raw water level data to eliminate noise, and compare the difference with the reference water level data to obtain the real-time water level data.
[0096] Specifically, the expression is,
[0097]
[0098] in, This represents the filtered water level estimate for the i-th measuring point at time t. Let i be the predicted water level at the i-th measuring point. K represents the raw water level data of the i-th measuring point at time t. t Let i be the Kalman gain at time t, where i is the measurement point index and t is time.
[0099] S3.3 Calculate the difference between the real-time water level data and the reference water level to obtain the water level change.
[0100] Specifically, the expression is,
[0101]
[0102] Where, ΔZ i (t) represents the water level change at the i-th measuring point at time t. Let be the reference water level value for the i-th measuring point.
[0103] S3.4. Collect raw temperature data under initial steady-state conditions using an infrared thermal imager, and perform spatial averaging on the temperature field data to obtain a reference temperature field.
[0104] Furthermore, under initial steady-state conditions, a FLIR A655sc infrared thermal imager was used to continuously acquire surface temperature field data of the water tank at a sampling frequency of 30Hz. The thermal imager had a resolution of 640×512 pixels, an emissivity of 0.96, and a thermal sensitivity of 0.03℃. Spatial averaging was performed on the raw temperature data. First, abnormal pixels caused by water surface fluctuations were removed to obtain the cross-sectional average temperature at each time point as the reference temperature field. The temperature fluctuation range was controlled within ±0.1℃. The reference temperature field data and water level data were stored synchronously with a time alignment error of no more than 1 millisecond. During data processing, the laboratory ambient temperature was maintained at 25±1℃ and the relative humidity at 50±5%.
[0105] S4. Shut down river and lake flow, prepare a superhydrophobic coating in the water tank and connect it to a micropore array, then restart the typical operating conditions.
[0106] S4.1. A shutdown command is sent through the central control module to shut off the river and lake flow, and to activate the electromagnetic drainage valve unit to discharge the water in the main body of the tank, resulting in a dry main body of the tank.
[0107] Furthermore, a shutdown command was sent to the Grundfos NBG 40-125 variable frequency centrifugal pump unit and the Netzsch NEMO SY screw pump unit via a Siemens S7-1200 programmable logic controller, simultaneously shutting down the monitoring functions of the E+H Promag50W electromagnetic flowmeter and the Fuji FLR ultrasonic flowmeter. Then, the DN50 electromagnetic drain valve unit was activated to drain the deionized water from the tank body at a rate of 10 liters per minute. The residual water depth was monitored in real time during the drainage process. When the water depth dropped below 5 mm, the electromagnetic drain valve unit was closed. Compressed air was used to blow away any residual water film on the inner wall of the tank body and the surface of the microporous array, ensuring no visible water stains. Finally, a dry tank body with a relative humidity below 15% was obtained. During the drying process, the ambient temperature was maintained at 25±1℃ to prevent deformation of the acrylic sheet due to temperature differences. After drainage, the sealing of all sensor interfaces was checked, and after confirming no leaks, the superhydrophobic coating preparation process began.
[0108] S4.2. The inner wall of the dry water tank body is plasma cleaned to obtain an activated hydrophilic surface, and nano-silica is sprayed to obtain a superhydrophobic coating. The microporous plate unit is embedded into the superhydrophobic coating to obtain a microbubble unit.
[0109] Furthermore, in the 2.0-4.0 meter section of the inner wall of the dry water tank, the surface was treated with a 40kHz plasma cleaner at a power setting of 300W for 5 minutes to obtain an activated hydrophilic surface with a contact angle of <10°. Nano-SiO2 (20nm particle size) and PDMS (Dow Corning 184) were mixed at a 1:9 mass ratio, diluted with 2% n-hexane, and then evenly sprayed three times with a spray gun (0.3MPa air pressure, 20cm distance from the surface), with a 30-minute interval between each coat. The mixture was then cured at 80℃ for 2 hours to form a superhydrophobic coating with a contact angle of 152°±2° and a roll-off angle of <5°. A laser-processed 316L stainless steel microporous plate (pore size 50±2μm, pore density 400 pores / cm²) was then applied. 2 The microbubble unit is embedded in the coating area and connected to the air compressor pipeline via a flange. After a sealing test shows a leakage rate of <0.1L / min, a complete microbubble unit is obtained. The coating quality is verified using a contact angle meter (Krüss DSA25), with a standard deviation of ≤1° for 5 randomly selected contact angles. After activation, the microbubble unit can form a stable air film layer with a thickness of 0.1-0.3mm and a coverage of ≥95% under a pressure of 5-30kPa.
[0110] S4.3. A restart command is sent through the central control module to start the variable frequency pumping unit, screw pumping unit, and microbubble unit, and obtain the operating parameters.
[0111] Furthermore, a restart command is sent via a Siemens S7-1200 programmable logic controller to sequentially start the Grundfos NBG 40-125 variable frequency centrifugal pump unit, the Netzsch NEMO SY screw pump unit, and the microbubble unit. The variable frequency centrifugal pump unit adjusts its speed according to preset PID parameters (proportional coefficient 0.8, integral coefficient 0.05, derivative coefficient 0.12) to stabilize the river flow monitored by the E+H Promag 50W electromagnetic flowmeter at 5.0±0.05 liters / second. The screw pump dynamically adjusts the opening of the multi-stage adjustable gate unit through a fuzzy control algorithm to achieve a lake flow monitored by the Fuji FLR ultrasonic flowmeter at 2.5±0.05 liters / second. The air compressor of the microbubble unit adjusts its output pressure (α = Q_lake / Q_river) according to the formula P = 0.268α^(-0.4) to maintain the air pressure within the range of 20±1 kPa. After all devices are started, data from the E+HPromag 50W electromagnetic flow meter, Fuji FLR ultrasonic flow meter, Honeywell 24PC capacitive water level sensor, and FLIR A655sc infrared thermal imager are synchronously collected via the Modbus-RTU protocol, with a sampling interval of 200 milliseconds and a duration of 60 seconds to verify parameter stability.
