Example two
[0020] The difference lies in the replacement of the booster pump 63, which can be replaced by a refillable gas cylinder and a pressure relief valve. Example three
[0021] As Figures 3-4 described, the difference lies in the redesign of the osmotic collection device 6, which includes a bottom plate 601, the bottom plate 601 is provided with a particle collection device 602, the particle collection device 602 is provided with a screen 603, and the screen 603 is filled with sample particles 604.
[0022] The osmotic collection device 6 is connected to the back pressure controller and the upper pressure cap of the pattern through channel a, connected to the test bottom hole and the pore pressure sensor 53 through channel b, connected to the pressure chamber 52 through channel c, connected to the sample bottom hole through channel d, and connected to the osmotic pressure control device at the right end, which can realize the saturation process from bottom to top in the sample, and realize the downward permeation path; channel d and channel a are connected with a water pipe, and a three-way valve is arranged at the joint, by adjusting the valve, the osmotic pressure of the osmotic pressure control device can be introduced from the pressure cap connected by channel a, and the sample is subjected to the upward permeation path.
[0023] Working principle: Since osmotic damage is the phenomenon of fine particles in soil moving along the pores formed by skeleton particles under the action of seepage, under the condition that the pore diameter formed by coarse particles in soil is greater than the diameter of fine particles, the seepage of water in soil leads to a sharp increase in pore water pressure, making the effective stress of fine particles zero, and driving fine particles to move between pores. In order to simulate the actual working condition, the test sample is placed in the pressure chamber which can apply triaxial pressure, the gas pressure in the water collecting tank is controlled by the osmotic pressure controller to provide pressure water head, the soil-water mixture after permeation can enter the particle collection cylinder through the screen and be saved, until the permeation is completed, the pressure water head is closed, the axial pressure is applied by the axial pressure loading rod in the strain control mode, and the test is completed when the given axial strain value is reached.
[0024] The two-way permeation damage mode can better simulate the form of permeation damage in actual engineering, and the added permeation path is suitable for different types and gradations of test samples, and has obvious advantages compared with the commonly used one-way seepage of the existing test device. The complex stress state of the permeation damaged soil body and the real permeation state of the fine particles carried out of the soil body are considered, a full-automatic confining pressure and counter-pressure controller is equipped, an axial pressure sensor, a pore pressure sensor and a displacement sensor are connected with a PC operation end, each module can work independently, the soil body is not disturbed during the test process, the maximum permeation pressure head of the equipment can reach 1 MPa, the confining pressure can reach 2 MPa, the stress state simulation of the underground soil body in most actual engineering is met, the pressure sensor with a pressure accuracy of 0.3% and the displacement sensor system with an accuracy of 0.001 mm are adopted, and the accuracy of the test data is ensured. The permeation collection device can realize the water-soil separation in a relatively ideal manner, and can accurately collect the total volume and total mass of the gushing material in real time, so as to evaluate the permeation damage speed and the final damage condition, improve the automation degree and accuracy of the test, and greatly reduce the energy consumed by manual work in long-term permeation test. The soil triaxial permeation test can be carried out in the laboratory, and the soil triaxial permeation test can be met while the conventional triaxial test of the soil can be considered.
