Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of water conservancy engineering technology, and in particular to an experimental apparatus and method for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in coastal aquifers under the influence of sluice gate-controlled rivers flowing into the sea. Background Technology
[0002] Coastal areas, as the intersection of the terrestrial and marine hydrospheres, exhibit extremely complex water cycle processes. To meet the needs of flood control, drainage, freshwater storage, and tidal barrier, most river estuaries worldwide have tidal gates. The construction of these gates artificially alters the natural hydrodynamic conditions of rivers: when the gates are closed, the water level rises, creating a weak hydrodynamic environment; when they are opened, the water level drops sharply and the flow velocity increases dramatically. This drastic anthropogenic fluctuation not only alters the exchange relationship between surface water and groundwater but also, by controlling seawater upwelling, causes drastic spatial and temporal changes in salinity within the river channel, thus profoundly affecting the density current field and geochemical environment of coastal aquifers.
[0003] Unlike inland rivers, rivers flowing into the sea are constrained by both upstream runoff and downstream tides, resulting in a strong tidal correlation in sluice gate operation. In practical engineering, sluice gate opening and closing typically follow a phase coupling pattern: opening for flood discharge at low tide and closing for saltwater retention at high tide. This tidal-driven sluice gate control pulse mechanism causes dramatic and discontinuous step-like fluctuations in river levels, with the phase difference relative to tidal peaks and troughs varying depending on the estuary characteristics. This unique hydrodynamic process alters the hydraulic gradient of coastal aquifers, significantly driving the migration and transformation of pollutants within them.
[0004] Indoor experiments are an important means of reconstructing the migration and transformation of pollutants in coastal aquifers. However, most existing devices focus on seawater intrusion under simple sinusoidal tidal action (such as CN115266521B and CN113405830B), and the generation of tides requires the installation of a complex gantry system and damage to the laboratory ground (CN105241804A). They lack simulations of the opening and closing process of river gates flowing into the sea that are closely coupled with tidal phases, and cannot reproduce the dual effects of sudden changes in water level and salinity fluctuations caused by gate control, making it difficult to truly reflect their impact on the migration and transformation of pollutants in coastal aquifers. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Purpose of the invention: The first purpose of this invention is to provide an experimental device for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in coastal aquifers under the influence of sluice gates controlling rivers flowing into the sea. This device is capable of qualitatively observing the tracer characteristics of the migration and mixing of fresh and saltwater interfaces in coastal groundwater under the influence of nonlinear tides, different gate opening and closing amplitudes, and gate response modes.
[0006] The second objective of this invention is to provide an experimental method for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in coastal aquifers under the influence of sluice gates controlling rivers flowing into the sea. This method quantitatively measures the pore water pressure fluctuations and salinity spatiotemporal distribution at characteristic locations of the aquifer during the tidal-sluice gate linkage process, and establishes the response relationship between sluice gate control parameters (gear transmission ratio), groundwater recharge flux, and seawater intrusion distance under nonlinear tidal boundary conditions.

[0016] The experimental method of the experimental apparatus for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in coastal aquifers under the influence of sluice-controlled rivers flowing into the sea, as described in this invention, includes the following steps: S1. Sieve white quartz sand according to experimental requirements. The simulated seawater in the simulated seawater tank is prepared by mixing deionized water and industrial salt in a mass ratio and stirring thoroughly until completely dissolved before use. S2. White quartz sand is filled into the simulated area of the sluice-controlled river-coastal aquifer using a saturated method, ensuring that the water level remains above the sand surface throughout the filling process. Sand is filled in layers while water is being injected. According to the experimental design, a sluice-controlled river channel device is installed inside the simulated area of the sluice-controlled river-coastal aquifer. The channel body is fixed above the simulated water tank using an angle adjustment bracket, with the permeable holes at the bottom of the channel body facing downwards and in contact with the aquifer. The position of the impermeable adjustment slide is adjusted, and the length of the permeable area is controlled within the range of 40cm to 100cm according to experimental requirements. The inclination angle of the channel body is adjusted, and the gate chamber assembly is installed at the downstream end of the channel body. The gate pier body is sealed to the end of the channel body using a flexible water-stop rubber sleeve. The porous energy dissipation abutment plate is fixed to the flange interface on the downstream side of the gate pier body. S3. Inject deionized water into the surface water storage tank and the groundwater storage tank respectively; prepare standard pollutant solutions into the first standard solution tank, the second standard solution tank and the third standard solution tank respectively; insert the pollutant injection probe into the simulated water tank, and adjust the position of the probe tip to near the upstream, midstream or downstream interface of the aquifer according to the experimental design. S4. Pour the prepared simulated seawater into the simulated seawater tank, start the first water pump, and adjust its flow rate to a constant value. The second water pump is started, and the main controller operates according to the target tidal water level curve. The voltage signal controlling the drive motor is obtained and transmitted to the drive motor through a transformer signal generator. The drive motor rotates forward and backward according to the voltage signal, driving the input vertical gear to rotate, which in turn causes the horizontal main gear to rotate. Through gear meshing, the opening of the flow regulating valve changes, thus changing the actual drainage flow of the second water pump 502. Observe whether the water level in the nonlinear tidal signal generation area exhibits periodic rises and falls, ensuring that the water level change amplitude meets the design requirements.

Adjust the length of the steel strand so that the lower edge of the water-blocking baffle is a certain distance from the bottom of the river channel. Start the transformer signal generator, set the tidal waveform parameters, and ensure that the tidal water level change and the gate lifting and lowering action can be synchronized. Verify that during low tide, the flow regulating valve opens, the water-blocking baffle rises, and the gate opens; during high tide, the flow regulating valve closes, the water-blocking baffle falls, and the gate closes.

Activate the nonlinear tidal simulation system. Start the first and second pumps, and control the drive motors using a transformer signal generator to generate the designed nonlinear tidal waveform. The inlet and outlet of the small-diameter and large-diameter flumes operate simultaneously, creating periodic water level fluctuations within the nonlinear tidal signal generation zone. After the river flow, groundwater runoff, and tidal waveforms have stabilized for a period of time, the pollutant simulation system is activated. Based on the experimental design, one, two, or three BW100 peristaltic pumps are selected. Different colored pollutant solutions are injected into the aquifer or designed location in the river channel via the pollutant injection probe. During the experiment, water samples are periodically collected from different depths and locations of the aquifer using a syringe through the sampling port on the back of the simulated flume. The complete pollutant injection-migration-dilution-transformation process is recorded. The specific steps are as follows: S6.1.

Detailed Implementation
[0019] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the present invention provides an experimental device for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in coastal aquifers under the influence of sluice gate-controlled rivers flowing into the sea. The device includes a simulated water tank 1, a land-based surface-to-ground runoff simulation system 2, a pollutant simulation system 3, a simulated sluice gate system 4, a nonlinear tide simulation system 5, a tide-gate linkage system 6, a pollutant monitoring system 7, and a camera system 8.
[0021] The simulated water tank 1 is placed vertically, with a length of 350cm, a width of 10cm, and a height of 70cm. The front of the simulated water tank 1 is a transparent tempered glass plate 101, and the back is a metal plate 102. The interior of the simulated water tank 1 is divided from left to right by two fully permeable partition plates 103 into a terrestrial surface-to-groundwater runoff generation zone 110, a gate-controlled river-coastal aquifer simulation zone 111, and a nonlinear tidal signal generation zone 112. The fully permeable partition plate 103 consists of a perforated acrylic plate 104 and a mesh screen 105. The terrestrial surface-to-groundwater runoff generation zone 110 is 10cm long and is connected to the terrestrial surface-to-groundwater runoff simulation system 2 through one surface inlet 106 and one underground inlet 107. The gate-controlled river-coastal aquifer simulation zone 111 is filled with white quartz sand with a particle size of d. 50 =0.2mm, d 90 / d 10 =2.5. The saturated hydraulic conductivity of the sand used in this invention was determined to be 4.65 × 10⁻³ m / s and the porosity to be 0.45 by the constant head method. The nonlinear tidal signal generation zone 112 is 35 cm long and is connected to the nonlinear tidal simulation system 5 on the right side through a small-diameter water tank inlet / outlet 108 and a large-diameter water tank inlet / outlet 109.
[0022] The terrestrial surface-to-subsurface runoff simulation system 2 is located on the left side of the simulated water tank 1, and mainly consists of two parts: a surface water simulation system 201 and a terrestrial subsurface recharge system 202. The surface water simulation system 201 includes a surface water storage tank 203, a high-flow-rate variable frequency pump 204, a water delivery pipeline 205, and a platform 206. The surface water storage tank 203 is placed on the surface of the platform 206. The surface water storage tank 203 is a five-sided impermeable stainless steel box structure, 25cm long, 25cm wide, and 35cm high, filled with deionized water. The inlet of the high-flow-rate variable frequency pump 204 is connected to the surface water storage tank 203 via a pipe, and the outlet is directly connected to the surface water inlet 106 of the simulated water tank 1 via the water delivery pipeline 205. This system directly controls the water flow injected into the river area of the simulated water tank 1 by adjusting the speed or power of the high-flow-rate variable frequency pump 204. The pump's maximum flow rate is designed to be 100 times that of a groundwater peristaltic pump, enabling it to cover a wide range of flow variations from dry to flood seasons. This allows for direct regulation of river volume and velocity through flow rate adjustments, simulating surface runoff processes under different hydrological conditions. The terrestrial underground recharge system 202 includes a groundwater storage tank 207, a BW100 peristaltic pump 208, and a silicone transparent hose 209. The groundwater storage tank 207 is placed on the ground and is a five-sided impermeable stainless steel box structure, 20cm long, 20cm wide, and 30cm high, filled with deionized water. This tank is connected to the inlet of the BW100 peristaltic pump 208 via the silicone transparent hose 209, and the outlet of the peristaltic pump 208 is connected to the underground aquifer inlet 107 on the left side of the simulated water tank 1 via the silicone transparent hose 209. Using a BW100 peristaltic pump 208 as a power source, the flow rate is precisely controlled by adjusting the speed of the peristaltic pump. Deionized water is injected into the underground aquifer area of the simulated water tank 1 through a silicone transparent hose 209, thereby simulating the lateral runoff recharge process of groundwater.
[0023] The pollutant simulation system 3 aims to achieve targeted and quantitative input of multi-source, multi-type pollutants from underground aquifers and surface rivers. It mainly consists of a first standard solution tank 301, a second standard solution tank 302, a third standard solution tank 303, a first BW100 peristaltic pump 304, a second BW100 peristaltic pump 305, a third BW100 peristaltic pump 306, a pollutant injection probe 307, and a silicone transparent tubing 209. The first standard solution tank 22, the second standard solution tank 23, and the third standard solution tank 24 are identical in size, all being five-sided waterproof stainless steel box structures measuring 10cm in length, 10cm in width, and 5cm in height. The first standard solution tank 301 contains a simulated organic pollutant (such as benzene) solution stained with methylene blue (MB) to simulate the release of organic oil pollutants. The second standard solution tank 302 contains a pollutant (such as ammonia nitrogen) solution stained with brilliant blue (BB) to simulate the release of nutrient-rich domestic sewage or agricultural non-point source pollution. The third standard solution tank 303 contains a high-concentration NaCl solution stained with Allura Red (AR) to simulate the high-salinity plume release of variable-density chemical pollutants. The first, second, and third standard solution tanks 301, 302, and 303 are connected to the inlets of the first, second, and third BW100 peristaltic pumps 304, 305, and 306, respectively, via silicone transparent tubing 209.

The pollutant injection probe 307 is a hollow sphere with an inner diameter of 1 cm. Inserting the probe 307 into the sand layer inside the coastal aquifer of the simulated water tank 1 allows for the introduction of pollutants into any area of the aquifer (upstream, midstream, near the seawater wedge interface, etc.) by adjusting the probe's depth and horizontal position. The pollutant injection probe 307 is fixed in the river area above the simulated water tank 1. By adjusting the position of the probe, pollutants can be injected into any cross section of the river.
[0024] The simulated sluice gate system 4 is located within the simulated coastal aquifer zone 111 of the sluice-controlled river flowing into the sea. It mainly consists of an upstream channel device 401, a gate chamber assembly 402, and a protective plate device 403. The upstream channel device 401 includes a variable permeability channel 4011, permeable holes 4012, stainless steel mesh 4013, an impermeable adjusting slide plate 4014, a stainless steel sliding rail 4015, and a flexible water-stop rubber sleeve 4016. The variable permeability channel 4011 is a U-shaped transparent acrylic channel with an open top, measuring 160cm in length, 10cm in width, and 5cm in height. The channel 4011 has a number of evenly distributed permeable holes 4012 with a diameter of 0.5cm, spaced 2cm apart. The inner wall of the channel is lined with a 300-mesh stainless steel mesh 4013 to prevent sediment loss. The impermeable adjusting slide plate 4014 is an opaque acrylic plate 10cm wide and 0.5cm thick. Its length is adjustable according to experimental requirements, ranging from 40cm to 100cm. The impermeable adjusting slide plate 4014 is tightly attached to the outer side of the bottom of the channel body and is connected to the channel body via two stainless steel slide rails 4015 installed at the bottom of the channel body. By changing the length of the slide plate covering the permeable holes 4014, the permeable area of the channel above the gate can be precisely controlled. The end of the channel body 4011 is sealed to the gate chamber assembly 402 via a flexible water-stop rubber sleeve 4016. The flexible water-stop rubber sleeve 4016 is 10cm long, 3cm thick, and 20cm high. It is hollow and made of high-elasticity EPDM rubber. By adjusting the head end of the channel body 4011, the inclination angle of the channel body 4011 relative to the horizontal plane can be adjusted from 0° to 15°. This flexible connection method allows the channel body to deform during the adjustment of the inclination angle without compromising water tightness. The gate chamber assembly 402 is located at the downstream end of the river channel 4011 and includes the gate pier body 4021 and the gate guide groove 4022. The gate pier body 4021 is a solid acrylic block with a length of 12cm, a width of 10cm, and a height of 25cm. It has an 8cm wide flow channel in the center. The gate pier body 4021 has a standard flange interface 4023 on the right side. The gate guide groove 4022 is embedded in the center of the inner side of the gate pier body 4021, with a width of 1.2cm and a depth of 1cm. It is equipped with double rubber sealing strips 4024. The porous energy dissipation apron plate 403 is connected to the downstream side of the gate chamber assembly. It is an acrylic plate with a length of 20cm, a width of 10cm, and a thickness of 1.5cm. The surface is distributed with several staggered trapezoidal protrusions 4031 and energy dissipation holes 4032. The trapezoidal protrusions 4031 are 0.5cm high, and the energy dissipation holes 4032 are 0.8cm in diameter. The plate is directly fixed to the flange interface 4023 on the downstream side of the gate pier body 4021 by bolts 4033.

[0025] The nonlinear tidal simulation system 5 mainly consists of a first water pump 501, a second water pump 502, a flow regulating valve 503, a horizontal main gear disk 504, an input vertical gear 505, an input drive shaft 506, a drive motor 507, a transformer signal generator 508, a simulated seawater tank 509, a water level sensor 510, and a main controller 511. It aims to construct a highly realistic tidal environment within the main water tank by precisely controlling the difference between the inlet and outlet flow rates. The simulated seawater tank 509 is a five-sided impermeable stainless steel tank, 50cm long, 50cm wide, and 40cm high, placed on the ground. The first water pump 501 is a low-voltage DC variable frequency submersible pump. As a constant flow inlet pump, the first water pump 501 is connected to the inlet / outlet 108 of the small-diameter water tank via a water delivery pipe, injecting water into the main water tank at a constant flow rate of 1.2 m³ / h. The second water pump 502 is a self-priming centrifugal water pump. Installed at the drain end as an active forced-flow pump, its rated pumping flow rate of 3 m³ / h is designed to be 2.5 times the constant flow rate of the first water pump, ensuring the system has the ability to rapidly lower the water level during low tide. The inlet of the second water pump 502 is connected to the flow regulating valve 503 via a water supply pipe, and its outlet is connected back to the simulated seawater tank 509 via a water supply pipe, forming a closed-loop water circuit. The flow regulating valve 503 is installed on the pipeline between the inlet / outlet 109 of the large-diameter water tank and the second water pump 502, used to precisely control the actual pumping volume of the second water pump 502. The valve body is a DN32 stainless steel flange gate valve, with its core control mechanism located at the top of the valve body. A horizontal main gear disc 504 is horizontally mounted on the top of the valve stem of the flow regulating valve 503, replacing the traditional handwheel. The horizontal main gear disc 504 is made of carbon steel with a diameter of 10 cm and a thickness of 1 cm, and its outer circumference is equipped with standard module teeth. The input vertical gear 505 is located to the left of the horizontal main gear disk 504 and meshes perpendicularly with it. The input vertical gear 505 has a diameter of 0.12m. The input drive shaft 506 is a solid stainless steel rod with a diameter of 5cm and a length of 15cm. One end is connected to the input vertical gear 505, and the other end is connected to the drive motor 507 via a coupling. The drive motor 507 is a low-speed, high-torque DC geared motor with a rated voltage of 12V and a speed range of 0~30rpm. It is installed on the upper right side of the main water tank and is connected to the transformer signal generator 508 via wires. The transformer signal generator 507 receives instructions from the main controller and is installed on the right side of the main water tank. By changing the voltage polarity and magnitude, it controls the forward and reverse rotation and speed of the drive motor 507, thereby driving the input vertical gear 505 to rotate, which in turn drives the horizontal main gear disk 504 to rotate, thus adjusting the valve opening to control the drainage flow. The drive motor 507 is connected to the transformer signal generator 508 via wires. The transformer signal generator 508 has a built-in main controller 511, which incorporates a reverse hydrodynamic model algorithm and can generate a target tidal level curve based on user input. It automatically calculates the voltage signal required to drive motor 507.
[0026] The nonlinear tidal simulation system 5 adopts the principle of constant inflow-variable outflow difference integral tidal water level generation, which differs from existing technologies that rely on physical lifting methods such as gantry-overflow weir raising or piston reciprocating. Its basic principle is as follows: within the nonlinear tidal signal generation zone 112 of the simulated water tank, the first water pump 501 operates at a constant flow rate... Water is continuously injected, and the second water pump 502 adjusts the flow rate via the flow regulating valve 503. Drain the water. Water level in the tank. The change depends on the integral effect of the difference between the inflow and outflow rates over time. Consider the tank as having a cross-sectional area of... For a finite volume of water, the change in water level follows the mass conservation equation: (1) Among them, drainage flow Controlled by flow regulating valve 503: (2) in For the comprehensive flow characteristic function of the pump-valve system, This is the valve rotation angle; this characteristic function The point at which the QH characteristic curve of the second water pump 502 intersects with the valve throttling characteristic determines the relationship between the valve opening and the flow rate under constant speed pump drive.
[0027] Characteristic function It is inherently nonlinear, and its nonlinearity stems from the following three aspects: (a) the effective water passage area of the gate valve. With angle The relationship between them is usually non-linear (equal percentage characteristic or quick-opening characteristic); (b) the QH curve of a centrifugal pump is a non-linear decreasing curve, and different valve openings correspond to different pump operating points; (c) the local head loss in the pipeline is quadratic with the flow rate. The superposition of the above factors makes This cannot be described by a simple linear proportional relationship and must be determined through system calibration experiments. After initial use or replacement of valve components, the system needs to be calibrated to establish the pump-valve system characteristic curve and motor parameters. Pump-valve system characteristic curve calibration method: Keep the second water pump 502 running at a constant speed, while simultaneously turning on the first water pump 501 and the external water supply to maintain a basically constant water level in the tank. Rotate the valve in equal angular steps (5° per step), at each angle... After the flow rate stabilizes, the steady-state drainage flow rate is recorded using a flow meter at the outlet. Establish the comprehensive characteristic function of the pump-valve system: (3) Fit the measurement data to a polynomial Alternatively, it can be stored as a discrete lookup table, and its inverse function can be obtained. Used for reverse engineering.
[0028] Substituting formula (2) into formula (1), we obtain the result regarding the water level. Nonlinear ordinary differential equations: (4) because It is a non-linear function, and the target tidal waveform Complex time series containing multiple frequencies, asymmetry, and non-stationarity still require inverse solutions from target water levels to control signals through nonlinear function inversion, and cannot be achieved through simple linear calculations.
[0029] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the transformer signal generator 508 has a built-in main controller 511, which incorporates a reverse hydrodynamic model algorithm and can generate a target tidal level curve based on user input. Automatically calculate the voltage signal required to drive motor 507. Its reverse solution process includes the following five steps: Step 1: Target tidal waveform synthesis; The main controller 511 supports the following three tidal waveform input modes: (a) Harmonic constant input mode: The user inputs the harmonic constant of the main tidal constituents and the amplitude. ,frequency Phase The system automatically overlays and generates the target tidal curve: (5) in The average water level For the first Each tidal phase, N represents the total number of tidal phases, encompassing tidal components such as M2 (major lunar semi-diurnal tidal phase), S2 (major solar semi-diurnal tidal phase), K1 (solar and lunar declination diurnal tidal phase), and O1 (major lunar diurnal tidal phase), as well as nonlinear high-frequency components such as shallow water tidal phases MS4 and M4. (b) Measured data import mode: Directly import measured tide level time series data; (c) Custom composite mode: Based on the harmonic tide, a user-defined non-periodic signal is superimposed, including storm surge pulse signal, shallow water deformation factor and random disturbance term, to generate a non-linear irregular tidal waveform containing semi-diurnal tide, shallow water tide, storm surge and their superposition.
[0030] Step 2: Calculate the required drainage flow rate; For the target water level curve By performing time differentiation and combining it with formula (1), the required drainage flow rate at each moment can be calculated: (6) Meet key design constraints: When Take the largest positive value (the moment of fastest tide rise). When the minimum value is reached, the valve tends to close, and the water body maintains a constant inflow. Accumulation increases under the influence of the action; when Take the largest negative value (the moment when the tide recedes the fastest). The maximum value is taken, at which point the valve is fully opened for rapid drainage. The system design specifies the rated flow rate of the second water pump 502. This ensures sufficient drainage capacity even under maximum ebb tide conditions, while The continuous injection ensured the maximum tidal rate. The physical feasibility of (the valve does not require reverse water injection).
[0031] Step 3: Calculate the required valve opening angle; Substituting formula (6) into the inverse function of formula (2), we can obtain the required valve rotation angle:
[0032] (7) in The comprehensive flow characteristic function of the pump-valve system The inverse function. This inverse function is pre-established through system calibration experiments (see part of formula (3) for details), because It is nonlinear, and its inverse function Similarly, it is non-linear, meaning that the change in valve angle corresponding to a constant change in drainage flow differs across different operating ranges. For example, when the valve is near the fully closed or fully open position, the flow rate is less sensitive to angle (an inherent non-linear characteristic of gate valves), while the sensitivity is higher in the intermediate opening range. Therefore, even with the required flow rate... It varies sinusoidally, and the required angle It also exhibits a non-sinusoidal waveform. This non-linear mapping is the fundamental technical reason why this system must use an inverse model to solve the problem instead of simple linear proportional control.
[0033] Step 4: Calculate the required motor angular velocity; For the obtained By performing the time derivative, the required valve rotation angular velocity is obtained: (8) Considering gear ratio ,in To input the pitch circle radius of the vertical gear 505, Given the pitch circle radius of the horizontal main gear disk 504, the required angular velocity of the motor is: (9) Step 5: Generating the drive voltage signal; According to the electromechanical characteristic equation of a DC motor, the relationship between the motor angular velocity and the terminal voltage is as follows: (10) in This is the motor speed constant, which can be obtained by purchasing the motor instruction manual; The armature resistance can be obtained by purchasing the motor instruction manual; This represents the load current. Under low-speed, high-torque conditions, the armature resistance voltage drop is relatively small, approximately: (11) Drive motor 507 according to voltage signal The polarity controls the rotation direction (forward valve opening / reverse valve closing), and the rotation speed is controlled according to the voltage amplitude, thereby accurately tracking the required valve angle trajectory. .
[0034] Combining steps one through five, the main controller 511 built into the transformer signal generator 508 performs the following reverse chain solution:
[0035] In the above five-level reverse solution chain, the third step ( This involves the inversion of the nonlinear characteristic function of the pump-valve system and is the core nonlinear link in the entire chain. The nonlinear characteristics of this link affect the output voltage signal. With target water level There is no simple proportional, differential, or any linear mapping relationship between them, and they can only be correctly solved through the complete inverse hydrodynamic model described above.
[0036] The water level sensor 510 is a miniature pressure water level gauge, installed at the bottom of the water tank in the nonlinear tidal signal generation area 112, to collect real-time data on the actual water level. The data is then transmitted to the main controller 511. The main controller 511 compares the actual water level with the target water level and calculates the water level deviation. (12) The pre-calculated voltage signal is corrected in real time based on the PID (proportional-integral-derivative) feedback control algorithm. (13) in , , These are the proportional coefficient, integral coefficient, and derivative coefficient, respectively, determined through initial system debugging. This feedback correction mechanism compensates for the following error sources: (a) the pump-valve system characteristic function. (a) Slow drift caused by valve wear; (b) angular lag caused by gear transmission clearance and friction; (c) slight fluctuations in the actual inflow of the first water pump 501; (d) leakage deviation caused by changes in the sealing of pipeline connections. Through a dual-loop control architecture of feedforward (inverse model pre-calculation) + feedback (PID real-time correction), the system can maintain high-precision target waveform tracking under long-term operating conditions, with the water level tracking error controlled within ±2mm.
[0037] This invention proposes a constant inflow-variable outflow difference integral nonlinear tidal water level generation method. The system employs a pump-driven active drainage scheme to ensure consistent control capability across the entire tidal range. Its core lies in establishing a five-level inverse solution chain from the target tidal water level curve to the motor drive voltage signal. Through the inverse inversion of the nonlinear characteristic function of the pump-valve system, arbitrarily complex tidal waveforms are transformed into precise time-varying voltage control signals. Combining real-time feedback from the water level sensor and a PID correction algorithm to form a feedforward feedback dual-loop control architecture, high-precision indoor reproduction of nonlinear irregular tidal waveforms is achieved, overcoming the shortcomings of existing technologies that can only simulate simple sinusoidal tides and lose control capability at low water levels.
[0038] The tidal-gate linkage system 6 utilizes the rotational motion of the horizontal main gear disk 504 from the nonlinear tidal simulation system 5 as a power source, synchronously driving the raising and lowering of the sluice gate through multi-stage gear transmission. The system mainly consists of a vertical drive shaft 601, a horizontal driven gear disc 602, a variable-speed vertical gear set 603, a top horizontal drive shaft 604, a stainless steel frame 605, a hub 606, a shrink sleeve 607, steel strands 608, and a water-blocking baffle 609. The vertical drive shaft 601 is a solid 304 stainless steel shaft with a diameter of 6mm and a length of 45cm. Its bottom end is coaxially connected to the central axis of the horizontal main gear disk 504 via a coupling, and the top end is fixed to the horizontal driven gear disc 602. The horizontal driven gear disc 602 has a diameter of 10cm and is designed as a bevel gear disc structure. The variable-speed vertical gear set 603 is located to the right of the horizontal driven gear disc 602 and contains four standard bevel gears with different modules and numbers of teeth. These gears are designed to be detachable and replaceable. Each time, one gear is selected to mesh perpendicularly with the horizontal driven gear turntable 602 according to experimental needs, achieving a 90-degree reversal and setting a mechanical transmission ratio of 1:1 to 1:3. The stainless steel frame 605 is welded from 30mm × 30mm square tubing and spans the 10cm wide opening of the main water tank, with a height of 80cm to allow space for gate lifting. The top transverse drive shaft 604 is horizontally mounted on top of the stainless steel frame 605, with a shaft length of 300cm and a diameter of 5cm. One end extends out of the bracket and connects to the variable speed vertical gear set 603, while the other end is suspended directly above the center of the main water tank and connects to the hub 606 of the sluice gate. The hub 606 is a 10cm diameter aluminum alloy winding reel, mounted on the top transverse drive shaft 604 via a type expansion sleeve 607. When the expansion sleeve 607 is loosened, the hub can slide axially to precisely align with the center line of the gate pier body 4021. After tightening the high-strength bolts of the expansion sleeve 607, the huge friction force generated by the conical surface locks the hub 606 and the transverse drive shaft 604 in place, allowing them to rotate synchronously with the shaft. The hub 606 is connected to the water-blocking baffle 609 by steel strands 608 wound in the spiral grooves on the surface. The steel strands 608 have a diameter of 1.5mm and are made of 316 stainless steel. The water-blocking baffle 609 is a transparent acrylic plate with dimensions of 9.8cm wide, 22cm high, and 10mm thick. A precision fit gap of 1mm on each side is reserved between this width (9.8cm) and the inner width of the main water channel (10cm), ensuring smooth gate sliding and effectively blocking water in conjunction with the rubber sealing strips on the edges. When the tide simulation system 5 adjusts the valve to change the water level, the rotational motion of the valve is transmitted to the top transverse transmission shaft 604 via the vertical transmission shaft 601, which in turn drives the hub 606 to rotate. During low tide, the flow regulating valve 503 opens and drives the water-blocking baffle 609 to rise (i.e., the gate opens to release water), and during high tide, the flow regulating valve 503 closes and drives the water-blocking baffle 609 to fall (i.e., the gate closes to store water).By replacing different gears in the variable speed vertical gear set 603, the mechanical transmission ratio of the system can be changed, thereby obtaining different gate lifting and lowering amplitudes under the same tidal water level change amplitude, simulating the gate response characteristics under different water conservancy scheduling rules.
[0039] The pollutant monitoring system 7 consists of a sampling port 701, a pollutant sensor 702, a pollutant data processor 703, a display 704, and a sensor mounting hole 705. The sampling port 701 is located on the back of the simulated water tank 1, and is filled with white silicone to prevent water leakage and facilitate needle puncture for sampling. The pollutant sensor 702 is installed in the sensor mounting hole 705 on the back of the simulated water tank 1. One end of the pollutant data processor 703 is connected to the pollutant sensor 702, and the other end is connected to the display 704. The pollutant sensors 702 employ a non-uniform deployment strategy. In this embodiment, 20 sensor holes in 8 rows are arranged at 10cm, 30cm, 45cm, 50cm, and 55cm from the bottom of the simulated water tank 1. The lateral positions of the pollutant sensors 702 are 40cm, 100cm, 140cm, 180cm, 190cm, 210cm, 250cm, and 290cm from the left fully permeable partition plate 103. Among them, the three rows of nine pollutant sensors 702 at 180cm, 190cm, and 210cm from the left fully permeable partition plate 103 constitute a high-density monitoring area. By increasing the deployment density with a lateral spacing of approximately 15cm, the rapid changes in pollutant concentration near the gate and partition plate in the simulated water tank 1 can be monitored at high frequency and with precision, especially the pollutant migration and transformation mechanism in the area most affected by the gate-controlled river. The sensors at the remaining positions constitute the background and diffusion monitoring area. The pollutant data processor 703 records this data in real time and visualizes the high-frequency data change curves through the display 704, enabling in-situ monitoring of pollutants in coastal reservoirs and adjacent aquifers.
[0040] The high-resolution imaging device 8 consists of a high-definition camera 801, a desktop computer 802, a blackout curtain 803, and an illumination panel 804. The desktop computer 802 is connected to the high-definition camera 801 and uses software to adjust the shooting frequency and duration of the high-definition camera 801. The high-definition camera 801 is positioned in front of the simulated water tank 1, and the illumination panel 804 is located directly above the simulated water tank 1, consisting of evenly distributed LED light strips 805. To create a darkroom environment, the high-definition camera 801, the illumination panel 804, and the simulated water tank 1 are surrounded by a blackout curtain 803 that is 4 meters long and 2 meters high.

The pollutant data processor (703) and display (704) display the concentration-time curve in real time; the spatial average concentration of the sensors in the river channel is calculated respectively. Spatial average concentration of sensors within the aquifer ; Salinity distribution: The conductivity of each monitoring point was simultaneously collected using a pollutant sensor (702) and converted into salinity. Used to identify the location of the brackish water interface; Optical images of pollutant plumes: A high-resolution camera (801) takes frontal images of the simulated aquifer zone (111) at time intervals to obtain the spatial distribution grayscale field of the stained pollutants. Convert grayscale values into a two-dimensional concentration field Pollutant concentration based on pollutant sensor (702) Concentration field obtained by correcting optical images ; During the experimental operation, the following key exchange fluxes were estimated online based on the collected water level data: River-aquifer infiltration exchange flow: Because the river water level is always higher than the aquifer groundwater level, river water continuously replenishes the aquifer through unidirectional downward infiltration of the riverbed medium. River-aquifer infiltration exchange flow... The value is always positive; according to Darcy's law, the vertical infiltration exchange flow from the river channel to the aquifer is: , in, The riverbed permeability coefficient, The effective infiltration area between the riverbed and the aquifer. The thickness of the permeable layer in the riverbed. This refers to the elevation of the riverbed.

It is the acceleration due to gravity; S7. After the experiment, all collected data were processed, and a quantitative analysis of the migration and transformation of pollutants in the coastal aquifer under the influence of the sluice gate-controlled river flowing into the sea was conducted. All pollutant sensor data were then standardized to the same time reference. For concentration time series Perform median filtering for noise reduction; A set of mass conservation equations for a coupled two-region system of sluice-controlled river channels and coastal aquifers was established. The sluice-controlled river-coastal aquifer system was divided into two coupled subsystems: the river channel region and the coastal aquifer region. Pollutant mass conservation equations were established for each subsystem. River channel mass conservation equation: , Mass conservation equation for coastal aquifer regions: , in The volume of water in the river channel; The volume of the aquifer; The average pollutant concentration in the river channel. This represents the average pollutant concentration in the aquifer. For surface input flow, Inputting pollutant concentrations onto the surface; For groundwater recharge flow, The concentration of pollutants in groundwater. This refers to the infiltration exchange flow between the river channel and the aquifer. The discharge flow rate of the gate; For the gate state function, This refers to the discharge flow from the aquifer to the sea. This refers to the seawater intrusion flow into the aquifer. The concentration of pollutants in seawater, Porosity To inject pollutants into the river flow, Injecting aquifer flow to pollutants, To determine the concentration of pollutants injected; The rate of change of pollutant mass in the river over time; The pollutant flux carried in by surface runoff, The flux of pollutants carried away by the aquifer is replenished by the infiltration of river water. The amount of pollutants discharged when the gate is opened. The flux of tracer pollutants injected into the river during the experiment; The rate of change of the mass of pollutants in the pore water of the aquifer over time. Porosity; The flux of pollutants carried by terrestrial groundwater replenishment. This refers to the flux of pollutants carried by river water as it infiltrates into the aquifer. This refers to the pollutant flux carried away by the aquifer as it discharges towards the sea. This refers to the flux of pollutants brought in by seawater intrusion into the aquifer. The flux of tracer pollutants injected into the aquifer during the experiment; pass The project achieves coupling between two subsystems: the river channel and the aquifer. The river channel is the source of pollutants, and the aquifer is the sink. The gate state function... The total amount of pollutants entering the aquifer is indirectly regulated by controlling the discharge flow rate.
