Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of test pool technology, and in particular to a multi-condition test platform for a combined deep and shallow water pool. Background Technology
[0002] A test pool is a container capable of storing water for water-related experiments. When combined with wave generators, flow pumps, and the pool itself, a test pool can form a specialized testing platform for simulating natural aquatic environments such as the ocean. This platform provides simulated test data for surface and underwater equipment and marine engineering structures, including ships, deep-sea submersibles, offshore platforms, and breakwaters, to reproduce water environment parameters such as flow velocity, wave morphology, depth gradient, and water temperature under different operating conditions. During testing, a scaled-down model of the equipment to be tested is placed in the pool. Sensors and observation instruments then record key indicators such as the model's navigation performance, stability, stress conditions, and resistance to wind and waves in the simulated environment.
[0003] Existing test pools generally include deep-water pools and shallow-water pools. Shallow-water pools (usually 1-3 meters deep) are mainly used to simulate shallow water environments such as nearshore waves and tidal currents; deep-water pools (usually 5-20 meters deep) focus on the hydrodynamic characteristics of deep-sea platforms. However, the working conditions simulated by existing test platforms have limitations, and there is a lack of research on the interaction between deep and shallow pools. Summary of the Invention

[0020] Furthermore, in the second combined working condition, the first crossing frame is equipped with the model connecting vehicle and the observation vehicle, and the second crossing frame is equipped with the wind blast vehicle or parked on the edge of the main body of the pool.

[0022] Under the second combined operating condition, when the first traversing frame moves from the second pool to the first pool, the second pool serves as a start-up buffer zone for the first traversing frame.
[0023] Furthermore, the observation vehicle, the model connecting vehicle, and the wind tunnel vehicle can all be raised and lowered vertically, either descending to be immersed in the main body of the water tank or rising to avoid the installed central partition wall.
[0024] Furthermore, the bottom of the wind turbine can be detachably equipped with several wind turbines arranged in a rectangular array.
[0025] Furthermore, it also includes pedestrian walkways;

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0050] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present application provides a multi-condition test platform for a combined deep and shallow water tank, including: a water tank body 10, a central partition wall 20, a first crossing frame 31, a second crossing frame 32 and a track 50; the water tank body 10 includes a first pool body 11 and a second pool body 12.
[0051] In this embodiment, the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 have different depths, or at least one of the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 can change its depth, specifically so that the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 can form pools with different depths. For example, the first pool 11 can be configured as a pool with a depth greater than 5m, and the second pool 12 can be configured as a pool with a depth less than 3m. As another example, the first pool 11 can be configured as a pool with a depth less than 3m, and the second pool 12 can be configured as a pool with a depth adjustable to 3m or more. When the depth of the second pool 12 is adjusted to 3m, the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 can be connected to form a large pool of equal depth; when the depth of the second pool 12 is adjusted to greater than 3m, such as 8m, a height difference is formed between the first pool 11 and the second pool 12.
[0052] The first pool 11 and the second pool 12 are arranged along a first direction and are interconnected. The first direction can be... Figure 1 The X-axis direction. Track 50 is positioned on the side of the pool body 10 along the second direction, and the length of track 50 spans the pool body 10 along the first direction. The second direction can be... Figure 1 The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction along the Y-axis. In this embodiment, the track 50 can be set on both sides of the pool body 10, that is, the pool body 10 is provided with track 50 on both sides along the second direction.
[0053] Both the first traversing frame 31 and the second traversing frame 32 are slidably mounted on the track 50 and traverse the main body of the pool 10 along the second direction. In this embodiment, both the first traversing frame 31 and the second traversing frame 32 can slide along the track 50 in the first direction and traverse the entire main body of the pool 10 in the first direction, allowing the first traversing frame 31 and the second traversing frame 32 to move to any position in the first pool body 11 and the second pool body 12 to simulate the relative displacement between the model and the water surface in a real scene.
[0054] In one implementation, the first traverse frame 31 and the second traverse frame 32 can slide along the track 50 by means of a built-in drive structure, etc. For example, both sides of the first traverse frame 31 and the second traverse frame 32 are provided with rollers, and the rollers are placed inside the track 50. At the same time, both sides of the first traverse frame 31 and the second traverse frame 32 are connected to motors, which can drive the rollers to rotate in both directions, thereby driving the first traverse frame 31 and the second traverse frame 32 to slide along both sides of the track.
[0055] In this embodiment, one or more of the following are mounted on the first spanning frame 31 and the second spanning frame 32: an observation vehicle 33, a model connecting vehicle 34, and a wind tunnel vehicle 35. The observation vehicle 33 can carry personnel or visual acquisition equipment such as video recorders. The model connecting vehicle 34 can be equipped with a monitoring system to monitor environmental parameters, movement speed, etc.; simultaneously, the model connecting vehicle 34 can be used to connect marine engineering equipment models, such as submersibles, semi-submersible platforms, and ships. The wind tunnel vehicle 35 is equipped with a wind turbine 36 to simulate a wind field environment.
[0056] In the multi-condition test platform for the combined deep and shallow water tank provided in this embodiment, the water tank body 10, the middle partition wall 20, the first crossing frame 31, the second crossing frame 32 and the track 50 are coordinated to enable the water tank body 10 to be used for independent conditions, the first combined condition and the second combined condition.
[0057] In independent operation, the partition wall 20 can be detachably installed at the junction of the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 to separate the first pool 11 and the second pool 12, so that the two pools are independent of each other. At this time, the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 can be used for independent pool tests.
[0058] Taking the example where the depth of the first pool 11 is greater than the depth of the second pool 12: Under independent operating conditions, the first pool 11 can be used for floating platform system tests, ship model performance tests, and deep-sea mooring and riser system tests. Floating platform system tests can be used to study the mooring system performance of FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) units, and the vortex-induced motion of semi-submersible platforms, TLPs, and other structures. Ship model performance tests can be used to study the deep-water navigation resistance, maneuverability, seakeeping performance, and self-propulsion of ship models (such as underwater vehicles (AUV / ROV) and ultra-large container ships). Specifically, during the test, the first straddle frame 31 and the second straddle frame 32 can be equipped with wind tunnel vehicles and models respectively to conduct wind and wave or wind-wave-current combined tests in deep-water conditions. The second pool 12 can be used to study nearshore wave deformation propagation tests, coastal structure and protection engineering tests, and near-shore fixed platform tests such as jacket structures. In a specific test, the first spanning frame 31 and the second spanning frame 32 can be equipped with wind blast vehicle and model respectively to carry out a joint test of wind waves or wind waves and currents in a shallow pool.
[0059] In the first combined operating condition, the central partition wall 20 is removed, and the first spanning frame 31 and the second spanning frame 32 are positioned on the main body of the pool 10 at a preset distance, with one frame equipped with a model connecting vehicle 34 and the other with a wind blast vehicle 35. In this embodiment, to ensure that the wind blast vehicle 35 can form an effective wind field, the distance between the first spanning frame 31 and the second spanning frame 32 does not exceed the preset range. In practical applications, the preset range generally does not exceed 10m.
[0060] In the first combined operating condition, since the central partition wall 20 is removed, the first pool body 11 and the second pool body 12 are connected as a whole, thus enabling the combined deep and shallow test. Specifically, at this time, the main body of the pool 10 can form an integrated pool mode and a combined deep and shallow mode.
[0061] In the integrated pool configuration, the second pool 12 is configured as a shallow pool; the first pool 11 is configured as a pool with adjustable depth, for example, the first pool 11 is equipped with a liftable base plate. During testing, the depth of the first pool 11 is adjusted via the base plate to be flush with the bottom of the second pool 12, thus combining the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 into an integrated shallow pool; at this time, the pool area increases, allowing for the installation of larger models (such as floating bridges). In this configuration, the traversing frame of the wind tunnel vehicle 35 can provide a wind field to the pool.
[0062] In the combined deep and shallow mode, the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 serve as the deep water pool and the shallow water pool, respectively, and each is equipped with a cross-frame; one cross-frame can carry the model and the observation vehicle 33, and the model can be located in the deep water area, the combined deep and shallow slope section, the adjacent shallow water area after the slope, etc.; the other cross-frame carries the wind blast vehicle 35 to provide a wind field for the pool.
[0063] Taking the example where the depth of the first pool 11 is greater than the depth of the second pool 12, the experimental platform can simulate the impact of wind conditions on the shallow water model under the first combined operating condition.
[0064] The first saddle frame 31 can be positioned above the first pool body 11 and equipped with a wind tunnel vehicle 35; the second saddle frame 32 is positioned above the second pool body 12 and equipped with an observation vehicle 33 and a model connection vehicle 34. The wind tunnel vehicle 35 on the first saddle frame 31 can provide wind to the model in the second pool body 12. Combined with the wave generator and current generator, it can achieve the superposition of wind field, current field, and ocean waves, more accurately simulating the load superposition of nearshore engineering under the combined action of wind, waves, and water flow. Under this condition, through the cooperation of the first saddle frame 31 and the second saddle frame 32, a combined wind and wave navigation test of the ship model in shallow water can be conducted to determine whether the ship model can maintain maneuverability under strong winds and swells.
[0065] Taking the example where the depth of the first pool 11 is greater than the depth of the second pool 12, the experimental platform can simulate the impact of wind conditions on the deep-water model under the first combined operating condition.
[0066] The first traversing frame 31 can be positioned above the second pool 12 and equipped with a wind tunnel vehicle 35; the second traversing frame 32 is positioned above the first pool 11 and equipped with an observation vehicle 33 and a model connection vehicle 34. In this configuration, the wind tunnel vehicle 35 is located in the shallow water area of the second pool 12, providing a wind field environment to the model in the first pool 11. As one implementation, the second traversing frame 32 can be connected to a boat model. After the wind tunnel vehicle 35 is activated, the wind field it provides can simulate the model's rolling and pitching under the influence of wind and waves. Alternatively, the second traversing frame 32 can be connected to a semi-submersible model to simulate the mooring force of the semi-submersible model under the combined action of strong winds, strong waves, and water currents. Furthermore, during the simulation, the second traversing frame 32 can move slowly (the movement speed is related to the size of the pool, the simulation conditions, and the model's scale ratio) to simulate the slow drifting motion of the platform driven by the combined forces of wind and water currents.
[0067] Taking the example where the depth of the first pool 11 is greater than the depth of the second pool 12, the experimental platform can simulate the impact of wind conditions on the shallow water model under the first combined operating condition:
[0068] The first traversing frame 31 can be positioned above the second pool 12, and a wind tunnel vehicle 35 is installed thereon; the second traversing frame 32 is positioned above the second pool 12, and an observation vehicle 33 and a model connection vehicle 34 are installed thereon. At this time, the wind tunnel vehicle 35 is located at the edge of the second pool 12, and it can provide a wind field environment to the first pool 11 and the second pool 12, thereby simulating the wind field's effect on the model's startup process from the shallow water area and verifying the influence of the wind field on the model's startup process.
[0069] As described above, the water tank body 10 provided in this embodiment can simulate the impact of the wind field environment on the models in the two tanks under the first combined working condition. Simultaneously, in this embodiment, the first crossing frame 31 and the second crossing frame 32 can move along the track 50, thereby simulating dynamic wind fields, such as moving gusts, and improving the accuracy of the data.
[0070] It should be noted that the first combined working condition can simulate the impact of natural factors on the two pools, and the central partition wall 20 can be removed.
[0071] In the second combined working condition, the central partition wall 20 is removed, and after the model connecting vehicle 34 is set on the first cross-frame 31 or the second cross-frame 32, it starts from one of the first pool body 11 and the second pool body 12 and moves to the other.
[0072] The second combined operating condition is mainly used to simulate the scenario of the model moving in a water tank. In practical applications, test water tanks are often located in laboratories; however, the limited space in laboratories restricts the simulation of model navigation conditions by the water tank. In this embodiment, the first tank 11 and the second tank 12, together with the first straddle frame 31 and the second straddle frame 32, can selectively retain the influence of the wind field or conduct model movement tests independently.
[0073] Specifically, please refer to Figure 3 Taking the example where the depth of the first pool 11 is greater than the depth of the second pool 12, the first traverse frame 31 above the first pool 11, after connecting the model, can start from the edge of the first pool 11 and use the second pool 12 as a deceleration buffer, thereby increasing the effective test length in the deep water area. Similarly, when the model starts from the second pool 12, after the second traverse frame 32 above the second pool 12 connects the model, the second pool 12 can act as a starting buffer for the model, allowing the model to have a higher initial velocity when entering the first pool 11, thus increasing the effective test length in the deep water area.
[0074] In the second combined working condition, the first spanning frame 31 can be equipped with a model connecting vehicle 34 and an observation vehicle 33, while the second spanning frame 32 can be equipped with a wind tunnel vehicle 35 to provide a wind field for the model and facilitate observation by test personnel and equipment.
[0075] For the second combined operating condition, please refer to Figure 4 The first traverse frame 31 and the second traverse frame 32 can both be positioned above the same pool. For example, after the first traverse frame 31 connects to the model, it moves from the first pool 11 to the second pool 12. The first traverse frame 31 is located on the side of the second traverse frame 32 away from the second pool 12, and the second traverse frame 32, when equipped with a wind gust vehicle 35, moves along with the first traverse frame 31 to simulate a moving wind field. Specifically, the first traverse frame 31 is equipped with a model connecting vehicle 34, and the second traverse frame 32 is equipped with a wind gust vehicle 35. The experimental platform can adapt to at least two scenarios: the second traverse frame 32 remains stationary, and the second traverse frame 32 moves in the same direction as the first traverse frame 31 at the same or unequal speeds. This simulates the scenario where the model is affected by moving gusts during its movement.
[0076] In this embodiment, under the second combined working condition, when the depth of the first pool 11 can be adjusted, after the middle partition wall 20 is removed, the first pool 11 and the second pool 12 can be connected into a whole. When the depth of the first pool 11 is adjusted to be equal to that of the second pool 12, the two can serve as a whole shallow water area, thereby effectively increasing the size of the shallow water pool.
[0077] In one implementation, the partition wall 20 can be transported using a crane. When the crane lifts the partition wall 20 and places it between the first pool 11 and the second pool 12, the partition wall 20 separates the two. When the crane removes the partition wall 20 from the main body of the pool 10, the partition wall 20 is dismantled. It should be noted that the partition wall 20 can be a wall-like structure. With the partition wall 20 installed, a connecting gap is allowed between the first pool 11 and the second pool 12; that is, the partition wall 20 does not need to completely seal and separate the first pool 11 and the second pool 12, but only needs to ensure that waves and other disturbances between the two pools do not interfere with each other.
[0078] In one implementation, the partition wall 20 is installed in the first pool 11 and the second pool 12, in the pool with shallower water depth.
[0079] In one embodiment, see Figure 5 The main body of the pool 10 also includes a ramp 13. The ramp 13 is located in the deeper of the first pool body 11 and the second pool body 12.
[0080] With the depth of the first pool 11 being greater than the depth of the second pool 12, the ramp 13 can be detachably installed at the boundary of the first pool 11 near the second pool 12.
[0081] Taking the adjustable depth of the first pool 11 as an example, the ramp 13 is set in the first pool 11. Specifically, after the depth of the first pool 11 is adjusted to be greater than the depth of the second pool 12, the crane places the ramp 13 on the boundary of the first pool 11 near the second pool 12.
[0082] As one implementation method, the depth of the first pool 11 can be adjusted by setting a liftable base plate in the first pool 11, so as to adjust the depth of the first pool 11 by raising and lowering the base plate.
[0083] In this embodiment, when the first pool body 11 is equipped with a ramp 13, the first cross-frame 31 located above the first pool body 11 can be moved to the top of the ramp 13 to further simulate the impact of the wave flow field on the model under the influence of the ramp terrain in the first combined working condition.
[0084] In one embodiment, the observation vehicle 33, the model connection vehicle 34, and the wind tunnel vehicle 35 can all be raised and lowered in the vertical direction, either descending into the main body 10 of the water tank or rising to avoid the installed central partition wall 20.
[0085] Specifically, the observation vehicle 33, the model connection vehicle 34, and the wind tunnel vehicle 35 can all be equipped with lifting mechanisms to raise and lower the connected components or the onboard test personnel, thereby adapting to different water depths. It should be noted that the lifting mechanisms can employ existing technology, and therefore will not be elaborated upon in this embodiment.
[0086] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The bottom of the wind turbine 35 can be detachably equipped with several wind turbines 36 arranged in a rectangular array.
[0087] In this embodiment, the fan 36 may be provided with structures around its perimeter that allow for assembly and splicing. For example, bolt connection plates may be provided around the fan 36, allowing adjacent fans 36 to be connected by bolts.
[0088] In this embodiment, multiple fans 36 can be combined into different sizes according to actual operating conditions. Furthermore, different fans 36 can be activated under different operating conditions to simulate uneven wind fields in real-world scenarios.
[0089] Furthermore, it also includes a pedestrian corridor 40; the pedestrian corridor 40 is located at the junction of the first pool body 11 and the second pool body 12.
[0090] In this embodiment, the pedestrian corridor 40 allows for the placement of test models and the passage of test personnel without affecting the operation of the first pool 11 and the second pool 12, thus improving the utilization rate of the site. Specifically, after configuring the pedestrian corridor 40, the process of connecting the models to the first spanning frame 31 and / or the second spanning frame 32 can be carried out on the pedestrian corridor 40, thereby allowing the boundary of the pool body 10 to be configured at the edge of the laboratory, improving the space utilization rate of the pool body 10 in practical application scenarios.
[0091] In one embodiment, the first pool 11 and / or the second pool 12 are provided with breakwaters 14.
[0092] Further, please refer to Figure 6 The breakwater 14 includes multiple breakwater blocks 141; the multiple breakwater blocks 141 are arranged sequentially along the second direction and are detachably connected to the main body of the pool 10.
[0093] In this embodiment, the bottom of the wave-damping block 141 can be a plate-like structure, which can be connected to the pool bottom by bolts or other connecting parts. In this embodiment, the wave-damping block 141 can be disassembled or moved along the first direction according to the actual working conditions, so that the wave-damping block 141 is staggered with the adjacent wave-damping block 141 in the second direction, so as to avoid the test tool and realize the simulation of more scenarios. For example, when it is necessary to set up a ship model, several wave-damping blocks 141 can be transported along the second direction to form a clearance area 142. Then, the staff can place the ship model in the clearance area 142 and stand on the wave-damping block 141 adjacent to the clearance area 142, which facilitates the staff to disassemble, assemble and adjust the test tool.
[0094] In one embodiment, the observation vehicle 33, the model connection vehicle 34, and the wind tunnel vehicle 35 can be positioned along a second direction during setup.
[0095] In one implementation, the observation vehicle 33, the model connecting vehicle 34, and the wind tunnel vehicle 35 can be connected to the cross-frame via bolts or other connecting parts, and after the bolts are removed, the positions of the observation vehicle 33, the model connecting vehicle 34, and the wind tunnel vehicle 35 can be adjusted in the second direction.
[0096] In one embodiment provided in this application, the observation vehicle 33, the model connecting vehicle 34, and the wind tunnel vehicle 35 can all be equipped with a drive mechanism. This drive mechanism can be, for example, a self-driving wheel mounted on the observation vehicle 33, the model connecting vehicle 34, and the wind tunnel vehicle 35. Correspondingly, the first spanning frame 31 and the second spanning frame 32 are provided with guide grooves for the self-driving wheel to slide along a second direction. The drive mechanism can also be, for example, a structure of multiple synchronous belts capable of conveying along the second direction; the observation vehicle 33, the model connecting vehicle 34, and the wind tunnel vehicle 35 can be mounted on different synchronous belts during installation.
[0097] In this embodiment, under independent working conditions, the first combined working condition, and the second combined working condition, the model connecting vehicle 34 can drive the model to move along a preset route. This preset route includes unidirectional movement along a first direction (i.e., the length direction of the pool in the attached diagram), unidirectional movement along a second direction (i.e., the width direction of the pool in the attached diagram), unidirectional movement along the first direction and simultaneously unidirectional movement along the second direction (i.e., the diagonal direction of the pool in the attached diagram), and unidirectional movement along the first direction and simultaneously reciprocating movement along the second direction (i.e., S-shaped or Z-shaped). The wind tunnel vehicle 35 and the observation vehicle 33 can adjust their positions along the first and second directions to adapt to different experimental requirements.
[0098] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to examples, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing examples or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
