[0050] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0051] The following describes, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a method for calculating the scale of voids caused by soil erosion under the pump station floor slab according to an embodiment of the present invention, and an electronic device.

[0052] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for calculating the scale of voids caused by soil erosion under the foundation slab of a pumping station, according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0053] Example 1:

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for calculating the scale of voids caused by soil erosion under the foundation slab of a pumping station includes the following steps:

[0055] S1. Determine the maximum head difference between the two sides of the pumping station. Soil particle density Total length of pump station base plate And estimate the diameter of the void channel. These parameters are the fundamental inputs for all subsequent calculations, including the head difference. The driving force of seepage is determined by soil particle density. The diameter of the void channel affects the force analysis of particles. Related particle initiation force and channel hydraulic characteristics, total length of bottom plate The S1 step serves as a boundary reference for the spatial range of the voiding scale. By clarifying the basic engineering and medium parameters, it provides initial conditions for subsequent particle stress analysis, seepage force calculation, and voiding channel simulation, and is a prerequisite for achieving quantitative calculation of the voiding scale.

[0056] As an example, assume that the soil particles filling the void channel under the pump station base are spherical. The particles on the channel sidewall are located at the interface between solid particles and liquid water flow, and are subjected to the combined effects of seepage from the soil below and scouring from the water flow in the void channel above. A micro-sized soil particle element on the channel sidewall is taken as the research object for stress analysis.

[0057] S2. Perform a stress analysis on the micro-grain elements of the pore channel sidewalls, including effective gravity. Drag force seepage force Lifting force Adhesion Support Sliding friction And rolling friction torque The force on the particle is the core basis for determining whether it is unstable (leaving the channel side wall into the water flow, pushing the development of the void). The balance relationship of different forces (such as drag force, seepage force driving particle movement, cohesive force, friction force hindering movement) directly determines the particle starting condition, and then affects the "source power" analysis of soil loss in the void channel. This step comprehensively analyzes the force system mechanism of particle instability from the perspective of micromechanics, breaking through the simplification limitations of traditional macroscopic methods for complex factors of particle starting, and laying a mechanical foundation for accurately deriving the critical starting condition.

[0058] S3, calculate the seepage force combined with the hydraulic gradient condition of the gap channel The seepage force is one of the key driving forces for particle movement, and the hydraulic gradient reflects the change of water head loss along the channel, which is related to the water head difference in step 1 (The hydraulic gradient is determined by the total water head difference and the length distribution of the channel), and its calculation result is directly substituted into the force balance equation in step 2 to affect the particle starting judgment. Further, the macroscopic hydraulic conditions (water head difference, channel shape) are related to the microscopic particle force (seepage force), realizing the quantitative influence analysis of hydraulic parameters on particle instability, and making up for the shortcomings of ignoring the seepage field distribution by relying on experience or simplified formula.

[0059] S4, determine the cohesive force by assuming the Shields curve The cohesive force is the key force that hinders the particle instability, and the Shields curve is based on the classic theory of sediment starting, which relates particle size, bed shear force and other parameters, combined with the particle force analysis in step 2 (as part of the anti-instability force), to determine whether the particle can overcome the cohesive force and separate from the channel side wall under the action of seepage. This step introduces the mature sediment starting theory to reasonably quantify the cohesive force between particles, solving the problem of difficult direct measurement and quantitative calculation of the cohesive force of microscopic particles, and improving the scientific nature of particle instability judgment.

[0060] S5, derive the critical starting flow formula of soil particles when sliding instability and rolling instability occur respectively. Based on the force analysis in step 2 (force and torque balance), combined with the calculation results of step 3 (seepage force) and step 4 (cohesive force), the critical condition of particle "dynamic-static" conversion is established. Sliding and rolling instability are two typical modes of particle separation from the channel side wall, and their formula provides a basis for the "critical flow threshold" of subsequent judgment of soil loss in the channel, and relates the triggering relationship between water flow velocity and soil loss in the void channel.

[0061] This method starts from two instability modes, accurately defines the hydraulic conditions of particle starting, breaks through the limitations of single instability assumption, and makes the starting criterion of soil loss in the void channel more in line with actual complex working conditions.

[0062] S6. Solve for the critical friction loss factor using the Colebrook-White formula. And calculate the gap channel length. This allows for the determination of the scale of the air gap. The Colebrook-White formula relates the flow loss along the channel (to the head difference in step 1). In step 5, the critical velocity is correlated with the influence of friction loss on the hydraulic gradient distribution and the channel roughness characteristics, through the critical friction loss factor. Calculate channel length Combined with the total length of the base plate and the diameter of the gap channel Ultimately, the scale of voiding (such as area and volume) is quantified. This is a crucial derivation step from the microscopic conditions of particle initiation to the calculation of the macroscopic scale of voiding. Step S6 integrates hydraulic calculations (friction loss, critical velocity) with engineering geometric parameters (channel diameter, bottom plate length), achieving a leap from particle instability analysis to quantitative calculation of voiding scale, providing directly applicable quantitative results for voiding risk assessment and protective measure design in engineering practice.

[0063] The derivation of the above steps, from basic parameter input, micromechanical analysis, hydraulic-mechanical coupling calculation, to the final quantification of the voiding scale, constructs a complete logical chain of "micro-particle instability driving - macro-channel development - voiding scale definition". This solves the problem that existing technologies are unable to accurately calculate the voiding scale under the pump station floor, and provides a scientific method for engineering safety assessment and management.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, effective gravity This refers to the gravitational force experienced by a particle underwater, and its calculation formula is:

[0065] ; (1)

[0066] in, The density of water, To calculate soil particle size, This is the acceleration due to gravity.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lifting force This force is generated by the difference in flow velocity between the top and bottom of the particles in the water, and its calculation formula is:

[0068] ; (2)

[0069] in, This is the lifting force coefficient. The instantaneous flow velocity acting on the particles.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present invention, drag force is the force generated by the friction between the water flow and the particles and the pressure difference before and after the particles, and its calculation formula is:

[0071] ; (3)

[0072] wherein, is the drag coefficient.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present application, when the force analysis is performed in step S2, the seepage force generated on one side of the soil body needs to be calculated in combination with the hydraulic gradient condition of the floor gap channel. Different thicknesses of soil bodies have different pore water pressures, and the pressure gradient direction is everywhere perpendicular to the bed surface upward, thus promoting the start of the soil particles. Then the calculation formula of the seepage force is:

[0074] ; (4)

[0075] wherein, is the shape coefficient of the seepage force, is the hydraulic gradient of the seepage field, ;

[0076] Here, ; (5)

[0077] wherein, is the head loss along the way, is the distance of the seepage field.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present application, the mechanism of the cohesive force between soil particles is complex, and the current domestic and foreign research has relatively insufficient understanding, so it is difficult to give the formula of the cohesive force from the theoretical level. The related research is mainly based on empirical formula. Here, the commonly used assumption in the Shields curve method is adopted, and the cohesive force is expressed as the product of the cohesive force coefficient and the square of the particle size of the sediment , so the calculation formula of the cohesive force is:

[0079] ; (6)

[0080] In some embodiments of the present application, the mechanical analysis of the sliding instability and the rolling instability of the soil particles is carried out here, and the critical incipient velocity formula of the uniform sediment particles is derived.

[0081] wherein, the critical incipient velocity formula of the sliding instability of the soil particles satisfies:

[0082] ; (7)

[0083] wherein, is the internal friction angle between soil particles, is the seepage force is the angle between the horizontal direction and the seepage force.

[0084] The critical incipient velocity of soil particles to slide and lose stability is obtained from the calculation formula of each force is:

[0085] ; (8)

[0086] At this time, there is a relationship between the critical incipient velocity and the friction velocity:

[0087] ; (9)

[0088] wherein, is the friction velocity, is the bed surface roughness height, is the bed surface roughness rate, which is equal to the size of the soil particle diameter, is a function of, is the viscous sublayer thickness, is the exposure correction coefficient of sediment particles.

[0089] For non-uniform sediment particles, and usually is taken as the size of the sediment particle (roughness size). Here, is defined as a function of and takes is to eliminate the viscous sublayer thickness in the formula of the logarithmic velocity distribution law of turbulent flow near the wall, in other words, to regard the wall as a hydraulic rough wall (smooth wall only considers the influence of viscous sublayer, here it is non-uniform sediment particles, which can be directly regarded as a hydraulic rough wall).

[0090] The formula mentioned here "logarithmic velocity distribution law of turbulent flow near the wall" is also the logarithmic law expression form of the incipient velocity of sediment, that is, the boundary layer function commonly used in simulation, which is shown as follows:

[0091] ;

[0092] ;

[0093] Take , , substitute to obtain the critical average incipient velocity of soil particles to slide and lose stability .

[0094] ; (10)

[0095] where h is the water depth, here h is converted from the hydraulic radius, and in the calculation, H-dH is approximately taken, that is, the water head at the current position after deducting the head loss along the way.

[0096] Instead of The following can be obtained:

[0097] ; (11)

[0098] In some embodiments of the application, for rolling instability, only The action point on the soil particles is moved from the contact surface to the center of gravity of the particles, and the action force generates a couple moment, which The horizontal component of is recorded as the horizontal resultant force, and the moment is the vertical distance from the center of gravity of the particle to the rotation fulcrum, and the vertical component of the remaining force and is recorded as the vertical resultant force, and the moment is the horizontal distance from the center of gravity of the particle to the rotation fulcrum, and then the moment analysis is carried out. Further, the critical starting flow formula (moment balance equation) of the soil particles for rolling instability is obtained as:

[0099] ; (12)

[0100] where is the horizontal distance from the vertical resultant force to the rotation fulcrum, is the vertical distance from the horizontal resultant force to the rotation fulcrum.

[0101] Then substitute the force calculation formula to obtain the instantaneous bottom speed of the non-uniform sediment particles when rolling starts:

[0102] ; (13)

[0103] Let , and replace with the critical average starting flow of the soil particles for rolling instability to obtain:

[0104] ; (14)

[0105] Through the above calculation, the critical average starting flow of the soil particles for sliding instability and the critical average starting flow of the soil particles for rolling instability are obtained, and then the two are uniformly input into the following formula (15) and (16), and the size of the obtained results is compared, and the larger one is input into formula (17).

[0106] ​In some embodiments of the present application, the Colebrook-White formula fits well with the experimental results of the pressure flow in the turbulent transition zone, and the formula is:

[0107] ; (15)

[0108] wherein, is the critical friction loss factor, is the absolute roughness of the side wall, is the Reynolds number, which is an implicit equation;

[0109] and ; (16)

[0110] wherein, is the average flow velocity of the pipe section at the starting moment, is the kinematic viscosity.

[0111] The implicit equation is solved by methods such as Newton iteration method to obtain the critical friction loss factor . Then the critical loss factor is substituted into the Darcy-Weisbach formula, and the length of the void channel , i.e. the maximum length of the void development channel in the hydraulic slope direction, is calculated according to the maximum head loss, and the determination method of the void scale is:

[0112] ; (17)

[0113] wherein, is the head loss, is the critical average flow velocity.

[0114] The longest, the length of the void channel is calculated, combined with the void shape being an ellipse, the void area is calculated with the major axis , and the void risk range is determined.

[0115] Example Two:

[0116] This embodiment refers to Figure 2 , Figure 3 for stress analysis.

[0117] Step One: According to the data of a certain engineering project, the design maximum head difference H=6.0m on both sides of the pump station is determined, the soil particle density , and the total length of the pump station bottom plate L=185m. Assuming that the soil particle size distribution is uniform, d=0.35mm is taken.

[0118] The diameter of the void channel d=3.5mm is estimated, and the uplift coefficient Take 0.1; drag coefficient Take 0.42; seepage force shape coefficient Take 1.165; cohesion coefficient Take 2.7475; sliding internal friction angle 30°; the absolute roughness of the square resistance zone is taken as Δ = 0.005 m; the kinematic viscosity is taken as v = 1.004 × 10⁻ 6 m² / s; the seepage force angle is taken as α = 0.

[0119] Step two: substitute the required parameters in step one into formulas (1), (2), and (3) to obtain the self-effective gravity , drag force , and uplift force .

[0120] Step three: for convenience of calculation, the total length L of the pump station floor is divided into 37 parts, so the length of each floor is 5 meters, and two virtual nodes are set at the upstream and downstream floor boundaries, with node numbers from 0 to 37 (a total of 38 nodes). The shortest distance of each node from the upstream node in the hydraulic gradient direction is taken as the void channel length of the point. For each node, substitute the required parameters in step one and the channel length of the corresponding node into formulas (4) and (5), and combine the hydraulic gradient calculation method to obtain the distribution of seepage force in the hydraulic gradient direction.

[0121] Step four: substitute the required parameters in step one into formula (6) to obtain the cohesion .

[0122] Step five: substitute the above results into formulas (11) and (14) to obtain the critical average starting flow velocities and at which the soil particles just lose stability by sliding and rolling, respectively.

[0123] Step six: substitute the required parameters in step one and the critical average starting flow velocities and into formulas (15) and (16), take the larger of the obtained results as input into formula (17), and try to solve the implicit equation using the Newton iteration method. The result obtained is related to the void channel length , i.e., the maximum length of the potential void channel in the hydraulic gradient direction. Substitute the channel length of each node in step four, and solve the implicit equation using the Newton iteration method.

[0124] Through the above calculation, it is found that the maximum floor voiding possibly occurs at a position about upstream of the maximum water head difference in the hydraulic slope direction in the embodiment, and the area of the floor voiding risk range is about , and the floor voiding risk range is shown in Figure 4 .
