In recent years, with the improvement of independent R&D capabilities in the automotive industry, aerodynamic design has received increasing attention throughout the entire automotive development process. Wind tunnel testing is an important means of automotive aerodynamic research and a crucial step in automotive design and development.

[0040] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0041] like Figures 1-7 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a wind tunnel construction method that combines cast-in-place and prefabricated construction, including the following steps:

[0042] S1, such as Figure 1 As shown, the construction of the wind tunnel structure base slab 21 and the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewalls 22 includes: Erecting a partial formwork support system 1: Erecting the base slab formwork support assembly 11; setting base slab sidewall formwork assemblies 12 at the top of both ends of the base slab formwork support assembly 11; and erecting cast-in-place sidewall sidewall formwork assemblies 13 at intervals on the side of each base slab sidewall formwork assembly 12 away from the base slab formwork support assembly 11. Please refer to... Figure 7 As shown, each base plate side formwork assembly 12 protrudes vertically away from the base plate formwork support assembly 11 to form a tenon, and the inner walls of the two cast-in-place side wall side formwork assemblies 13 are recessed to form a tenon groove; the wind tunnel structure base plate 21 and wind tunnel structure side walls are poured: concrete is poured into the first pouring space formed by the base plate formwork support assembly 11 and the two end base plate side formwork assemblies 12 to form the wind tunnel structure base plate 21, and concrete is poured into the second pouring space formed in each cast-in-place side wall side formwork assembly 13 to form the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure side wall 22.

[0043] The base plate formwork support assembly 11 includes a base plate formwork and a base plate support. The base plate formwork is used for pouring the wind tunnel structure base plate 21, and the base plate support is located at the bottom of the base plate formwork to support it. There are two sets of base plate side formwork assemblies 12, located on the left and right sides of the base plate respectively. The base plate side formwork assembly 12 includes a base plate side formwork 121 and a base plate side formwork diagonal brace 122. The upper end of the base plate side formwork diagonal brace 122 is welded to the lower end of the base plate side formwork 121, and the lower end of the base plate side formwork diagonal brace 122 is fixedly connected to the base plate formwork.

The base plate side formwork 121 is a tongue and groove steel plate. The upper end of the base plate side formwork diagonal brace 122 is welded to the lower end of the base plate side formwork 121, and the lower end is fixed to the ground through the base plate formwork. Its function is to prevent the base plate side formwork 121 from shifting during the concrete pouring of the wind tunnel structure base plate 21 and to keep it in a vertical state.

After the main and secondary ribs are placed in their preset positions, each pair of main and secondary ribs is fixed in position by tie bolts. If necessary, the sidewall formwork 132 is reinforced by diagonal bracing. The sidewall formwork support assembly 131 is used to bear the pressure from the sidewall formwork 132 during concrete pouring, making the sidewall formwork 132 less prone to deformation during subsequent concrete pouring. Furthermore, the inner wall of the sidewall formwork is recessed to form a tenon groove, i.e., a tongue and groove joint.

[0044] Specifically, the concrete wind tunnel structure 2 has a rounded rectangular cross-section, consisting of straight and curved segments.

The entire formwork support system 1 includes the base slab formwork support assembly 11, the base slab side formwork assembly 12, the cast-in-place sidewall side formwork assembly 13, the top slab formwork support assembly 14, and the top slab side formwork 15. The construction of the wind tunnel structure base slab 21 and the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewalls 22 involves first erecting the base slab formwork support assembly 11, the base slab side formwork assembly 12, and the cast-in-place sidewall side formwork assembly 13. After completion, the concrete for the wind tunnel structure base slab 21 and the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewalls 22 is poured, and the construction quality of vibration and finishing is controlled to ensure the flatness of the inner surface of the concrete.

[0045] S2, such as Figure 2As shown, the installation of the precast curved section component 23 of the lower part of the wind tunnel structure is carried out; part of the formwork support system 1 is removed; after the concrete of the wind tunnel structure bottom slab 21 and the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewall 22 reaches the design strength, the bottom slab side formwork component 12 and the cast-in-place sidewall side formwork component 13 are removed. After demolding, the wind tunnel structure bottom slab 21 and the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewall 22 are cured until they reach 80% of the design strength; the lower part of the wind tunnel structure is installed on both sides of the wind tunnel structure bottom slab 21 and between each cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewall 22. Precast curved segment component 23: Two precast curved segment components 23 are provided for the lower part of the wind tunnel structure.

The tenon at the bottom of the precast curved segment component 23 is connected to the concrete tenon poured inside the tenon of the cast-in-place side wall side formwork component 13 to form a tongue and groove.

After demolding, the wind tunnel structure bottom slab 21 and the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewall 22 are cured until they reach 80% of the design strength. Then, the precast curved section component 23 of the lower part of the wind tunnel structure is installed. There are two precast curved section components 23 of the lower part of the wind tunnel structure, located on both sides of the bottom slab between the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewall 22 and the bottom slab of the wind tunnel structure. The construction joint between the precast curved section component 23 of the lower part of the wind tunnel structure and the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewall 22 is a tongue and groove joint, and the connection joint is a wet joint. The construction joint between the precast curved section component 23 of the lower part of the wind tunnel structure and the bottom slab of the wind tunnel structure is a tongue and groove joint, and the connection joint is a wet joint.

[0048] Specifically, there are two precast wind tunnel structure sidewalls 24, located on the upper part of the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewalls 22 on both sides of the wind tunnel structure base slab 21. After the precast curved section components 23 of the lower part of the wind tunnel structure are installed, the precast wind tunnel structure sidewalls 24 are lifted and installed.

The top of the precast wind tunnel structure sidewalls 24 is a precast sidewall top tongue and groove joint 241.

[0049] S4, such as Figure 4 As shown, the construction of the wind tunnel structure top slab 25 is as follows: the remaining part of the formwork support system 1 is erected: a top slab formwork support assembly 14 is erected on the top of the wind tunnel structure bottom slab 21, and top slab side formwork 15 is set at the top of both ends of the top slab formwork support assembly 14. Concrete is poured in the third pouring space formed by the top slab formwork support assembly 14 and the top slab side formwork 15 to form the wind tunnel structure top slab 25. Each top slab side formwork 15 protrudes in the direction away from the top slab formwork support assembly 14 to form a tenon.

The bottom slab formwork support assembly 11 includes the top slab formwork and the top slab support. The top slab formwork is used to pour the wind tunnel structure top slab 25. The top slab support is located between the wind tunnel structure bottom slab 21 and the top slab formwork to support the top slab formwork. There are two sets of top slab side formwork 15, which are tongue and groove steel plates, located on both sides of the top slab formwork support assembly 14. After the formwork is erected, the concrete for the wind tunnel structure top slab 25 is poured. The construction quality of vibration and finishing is controlled to ensure the flatness of the inner surface of the concrete.

[0051] S5, such as Figure 5 As shown, the prefabricated curved section component 26 of the upper part of the wind tunnel structure is installed: the top plate side formwork 15 is removed, and after demolding, the top plate 25 of the wind tunnel structure is cured until it reaches 80% of the design strength.

The tenon at the bottom of the prefabricated curved section component 26 of the upper part of the wind tunnel structure is connected with the tenon at the top of the prefabricated side wall 24 of the wind tunnel structure to form a tongue and groove.

[0052] Specifically, after the concrete reaches the design strength, the top slab side formwork 15 is removed. The side of the wind tunnel structure top slab 25 has a tongue-and-groove joint 251. After demolding, the wind tunnel structure top slab 25 is cured until it reaches 80% of the design strength.

After the curing meets the design requirements, the bottom slab formwork support assembly 11 and the top slab formwork support assembly 14 are removed. After the removal is completed, the flatness of the inner surface of the concrete is inspected until the flatness meets the design requirements. The construction of the concrete wind tunnel structure 2 is completed.

[0054] Specifically, the wet joints between the precast curved section component 26 on the upper part of the wind tunnel structure and the precast wind tunnel structure sidewall 24 and the wind tunnel structure top slab 25 are cured. After the design requirements are met, the bottom slab formwork support assembly 11 and the top slab formwork support assembly 14 are removed.

After the removal is completed, the flatness of the inner surface of the concrete is inspected. If the flatness meets the design requirements, the overall construction of the concrete wind tunnel structure 2 is completed.

[0055] It should be noted that the formwork support system 1 includes a bottom slab formwork support assembly 11, a bottom slab side formwork assembly 12, a cast-in-place side wall side formwork assembly 13, a top slab formwork support assembly 14, and a top slab side formwork 15; wherein, the bottom slab formwork support assembly 11 and the bottom slab side formwork assembly 12 together form a first pouring space for pouring to form the bottom slab 21 of the wind tunnel structure, the cast-in-place side wall side formwork assembly 13 forms a second pouring space for pouring to form the side wall 22 of the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure, and the top slab formwork support assembly 14 and the top slab side formwork 15 together form a third pouring space for pouring to form the top slab 25 of the wind tunnel structure.

[0056] This embodiment provides a wind tunnel construction method and structure that combines cast-in-place and prefabricated construction. It effectively solves the problem of complex cross-sections in irregularly shaped wind tunnel concrete structures, which leads to high construction difficulty. A formwork support system 1 is erected to pour concrete, forming the wind tunnel structure top slab 25, bottom slab 21, and cast-in-place wind tunnel sidewalls 22. Prefabricated construction methods are used to connect the precast curved segments 26 (upper part) and 23 (lower part) of the wind tunnel structure with the top slab 25, bottom slab 21, precast sidewalls 24, and cast-in-place concrete. The connection of the wind tunnel structure sidewall 22 avoids the problem of difficult vibration during the construction of curved sections of concrete using the cast-in-place method, reduces the probability of construction quality issues, and completes the construction of the tunnel concrete structure with high quality. Since the curved section concrete components such as the upper precast curved section component 26 and the lower precast curved section component 23 of the wind tunnel structure are precast in the factory and then assembled on site, the quality assurance rate of the precast components is high, and the surface flatness can be precisely controlled. This is of great significance for ensuring the quality of the wind tunnel flow field and improving the quality and accuracy of wind tunnel laboratory tests.

A construction method for a wind tunnel combining cast-in-place and prefabricated construction based on any of the above-mentioned methods includes straight sections and curved sections. The straight sections include a wind tunnel structure base slab 21, a wind tunnel structure top slab 25, two cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewalls 22, and two prefabricated wind tunnel structure sidewalls 24. The curved sections include two lower prefabricated curved section components 23 and two upper prefabricated curved section components 26. The ends of the wind tunnel structure base slab 21 and the wind tunnel structure top slab 25 both have tenons. The top and outer sides of the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure sidewalls 22 have tenons. The top of the prefabricated wind tunnel structure sidewalls 24 has a tenon, and the bottom has a mortise. The upper prefabricated curved section components 23... The two ends of the precast curved section component 23 at the bottom of the wind tunnel structure have mortises; the tenons at both ends of the bottom plate 21 of the wind tunnel structure are connected to the mortises at the bottom of the precast curved section component 23 at the bottom of the wind tunnel structure to form a tongue and groove; the tenons on the outside of the side wall 22 of the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure are connected to the mortises at the top of the precast curved section component 23 at the bottom of the wind tunnel structure to form a tongue and groove; the tenons at the top of the side wall 22 of the cast-in-place wind tunnel structure are connected to the mortises at the bottom of the side wall 24 of the precast wind tunnel structure to form a tongue and groove; the tenons at the top of the side wall 24 of the precast wind tunnel structure are connected to the mortises at the bottom of the side wall 24 of the precast wind tunnel structure to form a tongue and groove; and the tenons at both ends of the top plate 25 of the wind tunnel structure are connected to the mortises at the bottom of the precast curved section component 26 at the top of the wind tunnel structure to form a tongue and groove.
