Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of welding technology for 1000MPa grade steel, and in particular to a method for improving the welding environment of 1000MPa grade high-strength hydropower steel and a welding chamber. Background Technology
[0002] With the vigorous development of my country's hydropower construction, and based on the needs of high-altitude, cold-region, and high-head, large-capacity hydropower projects, the steel used in hydropower projects is also developing towards larger scale, higher strength, greener materials, and energy conservation. This places stricter requirements on the chemical composition, yield strength, tensile strength, low-temperature toughness, and weldability of high-strength steel plates. Domestic research and development of 1000MPa-grade high-strength steel has lagged behind, resulting in a reliance on imports for this grade of steel plates and related welding materials. However, imported products are expensive and have long delivery cycles, causing considerable difficulties for my country's hydropower equipment manufacturing enterprises. There is an urgent need to overcome the research and application challenges of 1000MPa-grade high-strength steel for hydropower.
[0003] In recent years, with the continuous development and progress of national science and technology, some domestic steel mills have successively and successfully developed 1000MPa-grade high-strength steel for hydropower, and carried out its first large-scale engineering application. Having achieved breakthroughs in the technology of 1000MPa-grade high-strength steel plates, matching welding materials, and welding processes, the installation and welding of this strength grade of pressure steel pipe inside tunnels presents another major challenge. The tunnels are windy and humid, with seepage in the surrounding rock, which is extremely unfavorable for welding ultra-high-strength steel. High wind speeds can easily lead to porosity in the weld, failure of temperature control during welding, and reduced mechanical properties of the weld; the humid environment easily causes the base material and welding materials to absorb moisture, introducing a large amount of diffusible hydrogen into the cladding metal, resulting in cold cracking defects; seepage in the surrounding rock directly prevents the commencement of welding work; welding fumes are abundant inside the tunnel, and the air quality is poor, harming the physical and mental health of welders.
[0004] Taking a real-world example of welding inside a tunnel, the welding environment inside the tunnel is harsh, windy, and humid, with humidity as high as 92% and wind speeds reaching 6 m / s. This can easily lead to a high content of diffusible hydrogen in the weld metal, increasing the tendency for cold cracking in the weld metal and the heat-affected zone. At the same time, the tunnel is filled with welding fumes and has turbid air, making the working environment unsuitable for welding operations. There is an urgent need to improve the construction environment inside the tunnel. Summary of the Invention

[0049] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment 4, a practical example is used for illustration: Step 1: Partitioning.
[0050] Based on the distribution of 1000MPa pressure steel pipes in the tunnel and the actual installation conditions, the lower inclined shaft's bend section positioning section, the closure joint of construction adit #3, and the steel branch pipe are used as reference points for zoning, dividing the area into 5 unit zones, referred to as welding chambers. The lower inclined shaft's bend section positioning section marks the boundary between units 1 and 2. The closure area of construction adit #3 must be a single unit. The upstream of construction adit #3 marks the boundary between units 2 and 3, and the downstream of construction adit #3 marks the boundary between units 3 and 4. The steel branch pipe is the fifth unit. The pressure steel pipe is 6m in length, and the zoning length is controlled according to the 6*N principle: unit 1 is 48m, unit 2 is 48m, unit 3 is 18m, unit 4 is 18m, and unit 5 is 12m.
[0051] Step Two: Initial Renovation.
[0052] I. Windproofing Measures: Each welding compartment is separated by a steel truss 1 + three-proof fabric 3 (fireproof + flame retardant + waterproof). The steel truss 1 is made of 50×4 square tubes welded together, with a horizontal spacing of 0.5m and a vertical spacing of 1m, and a 2m×1m access door 2 is reserved. The three-proof fabric 3 is fixed to the square tubes with nails 4.
[0053] II. Measures to prevent water seepage from the rock wall: Three-proof fabric 3 is laid around the rock wall, tightly attached to the tunnel wall. The fixed foundation is 4×40 flat steel bars, which are welded to the support anchor rods 7 to form the foundation. The longitudinal spacing of the flat steel bars along the tunnel direction is 1m, and the circumferential spacing of the flat steel bars is 1m. After the flat steel foundation is installed, the three-proof fabric 3 is fixed to the flat steel bars with nails 4.
[0054] Step 3: Interior Decoration I. Dehumidification Measures: Dehumidifiers will be installed. Calculations for welding chambers in units 9.1 and 2 show that the unit volume for a 48m long tunnel is 2091m³. 3 Considering a certain margin, we will configure 3 units with a circulating air volume of 1300m³ / h. 3A dehumidifier of 9 per hour can meet the actual needs. Calculations for the welding chambers of units 3 and 4 show that the volume of the 18m long tunnel unit is 784 m³. 3 Considering a certain margin, configure 2 units with a circulating air volume of 1300m³ / h. 3 A dehumidifier of 9 units per hour can meet actual needs. The calculation for the 5-unit welding chamber shows that the unit volume of a 12m long tunnel is 522m³. 3 Considering a certain margin, configure one unit with a circulating air volume of 1300m³ / h. 3 A dehumidifier with a capacity of 9 / h can meet actual needs.
[0055] II. Smoke Removal Measures: Six welders will be stationed inside the welding chamber during the welding of the circumferential seam. The welding will be done manually using welding rods, generating a large amount of welding fumes. Therefore, a fume purifier (15.1.2) will be installed. The calculation for the welding chambers of units 1 and 2 shows that the volume of the 48m long tunnel unit is 2091m³. 3 Configured with 2 units with a processing air volume of 1500m³ / h 3 A 15 / h fume purifier can meet actual needs. Calculations for welding chambers in units 3 and 4 show that the volume of a 18m long tunnel unit is 784m³. 3 Configured with one unit with an air volume of 1500m³ 3 A 15 / h fume purifier can meet actual needs. Based on the calculation of a 5-unit welding chamber, the unit volume of a 12m long tunnel is 522m³. 3 Configured with one unit with an air volume of 1500m³ 3 The 15-meter-per-hour smoke and dust purifier can meet actual needs.
[0056] III. Ventilation. The welding chamber is a closed space and requires a ventilation fan (11) to ensure good air quality. Calculations for welding chambers 1 and 2 show that the volume of the 48m long tunnel unit is 2091m³. 3 Configured with 2 units of air supply capacity 3200m³ / h 3 The 11 blowers per hour can meet the actual needs. Calculations for welding chambers in units 3 and 4 show that the volume of a 18m long tunnel unit is 784m³. 3 Configured with one unit with an air supply volume of 3200m³ 3 The 11 blowers per hour can meet the actual needs. The calculation for the 5-unit welding chamber shows that the unit volume of a 12m long tunnel is 522m³. 3 Configured with one unit with an air supply volume of 3200m³ 3 The blower 11, with a capacity of / h, can meet the actual needs. The blower 11 is installed at both ends of the welding chamber, and an anemometer is installed at the welding position to monitor the wind speed.
[0057] During actual construction, the optimal coordination point was achieved by adjusting the power of the dehumidifier 9, the dust purifier 15, and the blower 11. The temperature inside the welding chamber was maintained at 25℃~30℃, the humidity at 50%-55%, and the wind speed ≤0.5m / s, meeting the high-quality construction environment standards for 1000MPa high-strength steel welding. This ensured the high-quality welding of the 1000MPa high-strength steel, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent large-scale application of high-strength steel and providing technical solutions for the development and construction of large-scale hydropower projects in China.

A welding chamber according to claim 13, characterized in that, When the oxygen concentration is within the set range, the wind speed is always lower than the wind speed set by the ventilation module, thus avoiding conflict between the oxygenation module and the ventilation module and ensuring that the wind speed never exceeds the set value of the ventilation module.
15. A welding chamber according to claim 7, characterized in that, The temperature module includes a temperature and humidity sensor, a blower, and a ventilation fan installed in the cabin. When the temperature and humidity sensor detects that the temperature exceeds the maximum value, the temperature and humidity sensor sends a signal to the controller, and the controller increases the power of the blower and the ventilation fan until the temperature is lower than the maximum value. When the temperature and humidity sensor detects that the temperature is below the minimum value, the sensor sends a signal to the controller, which then reduces the power of the blower and the ventilation fan until the temperature exceeds the minimum value.
16. A welding chamber according to claim 15, characterized in that, When the temperature is within the set value range, the wind speed is always less than the wind speed set by the ventilation module to avoid conflict between the temperature module and the ventilation module, and to ensure that the wind speed never exceeds the set value of the ventilation module.
17. A welding chamber according to any one of claims 12 to 16, characterized in that, The cabin is equipped with an air inlet pipe that runs through the welding chamber in sequence. The blower is connected to the air inlet pipe and communicates with the outside air through the air inlet pipe.
18. A welding chamber according to any one of claims 12 to 16, characterized in that, The cabin is equipped with an air outlet pipe that runs through the welding chamber in sequence. The air exchanger is connected to the air outlet pipe and communicates with the outside world through the air outlet pipe.
19. A welding chamber according to claim 7, characterized in that, The cabin is also equipped with a smoke removal module, which includes at least one movable fume purifier that can be moved synchronously with the welding position by a person to eliminate welding fumes in real time.
20. A welding chamber according to claim 7, characterized in that, Both the front and rear steel trusses are equipped with access doors for entering the cabin, and the three-proof cloth at the access door is installed in the form of a plastic curtain.
