Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of rock mechanics testing, underground fluid erosion simulation, and safety evaluation of salt cavern engineering. Specifically, it relates to a high-pressure brine erosion testing device for interlayer rock cores and a method for erosion damage inversion. Background Technology

[0002] Interlayered cores are widely found in salt rock strata, underground reservoirs, and deep rock masses. Under high-pressure brine environments, due to differences in mineral composition, structural heterogeneity, and bedding plane effects, interlayered areas are prone to dissolution, softening, fracture propagation, and the formation of local seepage channels, which in turn affect reservoir stability, salt cavern sealing, and the long-term safety of underground engineering.

[0003] Existing experimental devices mostly focus on conventional immersion, static pressure bearing, or single mechanical loading, and are insufficient in simulating the long-term erosion process of interlayer cores under high-pressure brine. In particular, there is a lack of specialized devices and methods for controllable interlayer orientation, continuous monitoring of the erosion process, online sampling under uninterrupted pressure holding conditions, and erosion damage evaluation based on multi-source signals.

[0004] Existing testing methods typically focus only on single pressure-bearing capacity or final failure results, making it difficult to reveal the gradual evolution of interlayer cores under long-term high-pressure brine erosion, from local dissolution, pore expansion, and fracture initiation to the formation of seepage channels. Especially in practical studies, interlayers are often the preferential areas for high-pressure brine erosion, and also the sites where damage occurs earliest and is most sensitive to evolution. Therefore, a testing technology system capable of simultaneously acquiring data on the directional arrangement of interlayers, monitoring local responses, and changes in the composition of the eroding fluid is needed. Summary of the Invention

The radial floating support cage 6 is provided with axial limiting caps 5 at both the upper and lower ends; A replaceable directional positioning sleeve 7 is provided at the connection between the axial limiting cap 5 and the radial floating support cage 6.

[0034] The axial limiting cap 5 of this invention is used to limit the axial displacement of the core under pressurization and fluid disturbance.

A replaceable directional positioning sleeve 7 is used for calibrating and locking the interlayer direction.

[0035] Furthermore, the replaceable directional positioning sleeve 7 is provided with interlayer direction markings.

[0036] The interlayer orientation marker is used to calibrate the interlayer orientation, so that the interlayer position and the external multi-point sensor array form a predetermined spatial correspondence, thereby realizing the repeatability control of the interlayer orientation test and the comparative test.

[0037] Furthermore, the high-pressure precision booster assembly 10 includes a liquid storage tank 11, a pre-pressure pump 12, a plunger-type high-pressure booster pump 13, a pressure stabilizing assembly 14, a reference pressure sensor 16, a proportional pressure regulating valve 17, and a controller 15; the pressure stabilizing assembly 14 includes a pulsation damper and a pressure stabilizing buffer. The outlet end of the storage tank 11 is connected to the injection port of the sealed pressure-bearing steel pipe test chamber 1 through a liquid delivery pipeline; The infusion pipeline is equipped with a pre-pressure pump 12, a plunger-type high-pressure booster pump 13, a pressure stabilizing component 14, and a proportional pressure regulating valve 17 in sequence.

The outlet of the pressure-reducing sampling chamber 24 is connected to the sample collection container 26 via the second pressure regulating valve 25.

[0042] During the experiment of this invention, when sampling is required, the first high-pressure isolation valve 23 is opened first, allowing a small amount of high-pressure erosion liquid in the main test chamber to enter the depressurization sampling chamber 24; then the first high-pressure isolation valve 23 is closed, isolating the depressurization sampling chamber 24 from the sealed pressure-bearing steel pipe test chamber 1; then the pressure of the depressurization sampling chamber 24 is reduced in stages through the second pressure regulating valve 25, and finally the sample liquid is introduced into the sample liquid collection container 26, thereby realizing online time-sharing sampling without damaging the pressure environment of the main test chamber.

[0043] Furthermore, the pressure-reducing sampling chamber 24 is equipped with a pressure detection element 27, and the inner wall of the pressure-reducing sampling chamber 24 is equipped with a volume measuring device 28.

[0046] The safety pressure relief component 30 of this invention is used to relieve pressure in a timely manner under overpressure or abnormal operating conditions, ensuring the safety of the device and operation.

[0047] A method for erosion damage inversion from high-pressure brine erosion tests on interbedded rock cores includes the following steps: Step S1: Load the interlayer core 4 into the self-centering directional core clamping assembly, and complete the interlayer direction calibration by using the interlayer direction mark on the replaceable directional positioning sleeve 7; ensure the vertical position of the radial floating support cage 6 in the self-centering directional core clamping assembly, so that the radial floating support cage 6 can be installed in accordance with the vertical direction marked by the interlayer direction mark in the subsequent installation. Step S2: Place the clamped interlayer core 4 into the sealed pressure-bearing steel pipe test chamber 1 and seal it through the end sealing assembly; Step S3: Inject brine into the sealed pressure-bearing steel pipe test chamber 1 through the injection port 8, and exhaust the gas in the chamber through the exhaust port 9. Step S4: The high-pressure precision booster assembly 10 performs constant-speed pressure increase, constant-pressure maintenance, or cyclic disturbance loading according to a preset pressure path; Step S5: Collect the pressure time-series response at different measuring points using the multi-point sensor array 18; Step S6: Collect erosion fluid samples using the online isolated depressurization sampling assembly 21 at set time intervals; Step S7: Based on the multi-point pressure response characteristics and changes in the composition of the eroding fluid, establish parameters to characterize the degree of erosion and damage evolution of the interlayer core.

[0048] This invention proposes a principle for inverting erosion damage in interlayer cores based on multi-point pressure response and changes in erosion fluid composition.

[0049] Under the long-term action of high-pressure brine, interlayered cores undergo a gradual evolution process in the interlayered areas and surrounding regions, including mineral dissolution, pore expansion, microfracture initiation, seepage channel formation, and local structural softening. These internal structural changes alter the local pressure transmission path, pressure dissipation patterns, and dynamic disturbance response characteristics of the fluid surrounding the core, resulting in differential pressure responses at different measuring points on the core wall. Simultaneously, mineral dissolution and fine particle migration within the core also lead to changes in component parameters such as ion concentration, suspended particle content, and conductivity in the corrosive fluid.

[0050] Therefore, this invention achieves erosion damage inversion by simultaneously acquiring the following two types of information: 1. Multi-point pressure response information: including local pressure values ​​at different axial and circumferential measuring points, pressure change curves over time, pressure fluctuation amplitude, local pressure decay rate, and response phase characteristics under cyclic loading; 2. Information on changes in the composition of the erosion solution: including the rate of change in ion concentration, the change in suspended particle content, the change in conductivity, or other component parameters that reflect the degree of dissolution obtained from time-series sampling.

[0051] In the initial stage of the experiment, the multi-point pressure distribution and the initial composition of the erosion fluid when the core is in a relatively intact state are used as the baseline state. In the subsequent loading and erosion process, if the local pressure response of the measuring point corresponding to the interlayer direction shows a continuous decrease, increased fluctuation, and increased unevenness of circumferential or axial pressure distribution relative to the non-interlayer area, and at the same time the ion concentration or particle content in the erosion fluid composition shows a continuous change, it can be determined that the interlayer area is undergoing intensified erosion and damage evolution.

[0052] This invention proposes an erosion damage inversion principle based on multi-point pressure response and changes in the composition of the eroding liquid, enabling the device to not only complete high-pressure brine erosion tests, but also to further develop erosion process diagnosis and damage evolution evaluation functions. Furthermore, the erosion degree and damage evolution characterization parameters in step S7 include at least one of the following indicators: local pressure decay rate, axial pressure non-uniformity coefficient, circumferential pressure non-uniformity coefficient, cyclic loading response hysteresis, erosion fluid ion concentration change rate, and coupling parameters of the indicators; wherein, the coupling parameters are used to comprehensively characterize the erosion degree and damage evolution state of the interlayer core under high-pressure brine environment.

[0053] To facilitate quantitative characterization, the present invention defines the following characteristic parameters: Local pressure decay rate: used to characterize the decay trend of local pressure at a certain measuring point over time, reflecting the evolution of fluid pressure transmission capacity and local seepage state in that area; Axial pressure non-uniformity coefficient: used to characterize the degree of pressure distribution difference between different measuring points along the core axis, reflecting the uneven erosion development in different parts of the interlayer (upper, middle, and lower); Circumferential pressure non-uniformity coefficient: used to characterize the degree of pressure distribution difference between different measuring points along the circumference of the core, reflecting the spatial difference of erosion and damage between the interlayer direction and the non-interlayer direction; Cyclic loading response hysteresis: used to characterize the amplitude attenuation and phase hysteresis characteristics of the pressure response at each measuring point relative to the loading signal under cyclic perturbation loading conditions, reflecting the degree of local damage accumulation and weakening of transmission performance; Erosion fluid ion concentration change rate: used to characterize the trend of change in characteristic ion concentration per unit time, reflecting the degree of mineral dissolution and material migration; Coupling parameters: Based on at least two of the aforementioned characteristic parameters, a comprehensive evaluation index is constructed to characterize the degree of erosion and damage evolution of interlayer cores within a specific time period.

[0054] This invention does not limit the specific mathematical form of the coupling parameters. As long as they are constructed based on multi-point pressure response characteristics and information on changes in the composition of the erosion fluid, and can achieve a comprehensive characterization of the degree of erosion and the state of damage evolution of the interlayer core, they are all within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0055] While the present invention has been disclosed above, its scope of protection is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such changes and modifications will fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
