Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of fluid mechanics testing, and in particular relates to a water tunnel testing device. Background Art
[0002] The water tunnel device is a major experimental device for fluid dynamics research. Compared with the wind tunnel, its experimental fluid medium is water, which has the characteristics of high density, low mass diffusion and low flow velocity. It plays an irreplaceable role in the research fields of cavitation, supercavitation, turbulence, etc. Therefore, the water tunnel device is mainly used to study fluid dynamics problems such as ship motion, underwater propulsion, cavitation phenomenon and hydraulic machinery.
[0003] In the prior art, the design flow rate and Reynolds number of water tunnel devices are generally low. The diameter of the experimental section is generally small due to site restrictions, and the diameter is mostly within 1m. In addition, the loading method is single, the experimental time is short, and the experimental cost is high, which can only meet the scaled model experiments with low flow rate and low Reynolds number. For example, the Chinese invention patent CN108827591A provides a gravity-type circulating water tunnel for underwater complex surface drag reduction measurement, which provides power for the water tunnel device through the gravity potential energy provided by the high-level water tank, and at the same time maintains the water level of the high-level water tank through the liquid level control system to provide stable gravity potential energy; this method only uses the water's own gravity to provide power, the water loading method is single, and the flow rate that can be provided is limited. In addition, the Chinese utility model patent CN1207546C provides a low-water-level gravity water tunnel with high flow rate and low turbulence. It uses a gravity water tank and a pump group to load together. The water pump loading makes up for the defect of insufficient power provided by the gravity water tank. This patent cannot accurately control the flow rate of the experimental section. Moreover, the size of the gravity water tank of this patent is 2m×2m×2.5m, and the cross-sectional size of the experimental section is 0.2m×0.2m. Therefore, this patent is only suitable for experiments with low-water-level, small-diameter scale models, and requires a large power provided by the water pump, which consumes a lot of electricity. For models with larger sizes, the experimental section of this patent cannot accommodate them and cannot provide sufficient power. Under the trend of global competition for marine scientific research, marine observation, and the development of underwater high-speed vehicles, the water tunnel device with immutable, small-diameter, and low-flow rate can no longer meet the current development needs of advanced equipment such as underwater ultra-high-speed vehicles.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a water tunnel test device with low experimental cost and high flow rate control is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Utility Model Content

[0046] In the above-mentioned schematic embodiment, the water tunnel test device accelerates the fluid through the gravitational potential energy provided by the water reservoir 1 and the multiple loading water pumps 302 of the loading section 3, which can significantly increase the flow rate, while effectively reducing power consumption and extending the test time, so that the water tunnel test device can adapt to larger-sized test models; at the same time, through the setting of the flow rate sensor 402 and the controller of the loading water pump 302, while providing real-time flow rate data for the test, it can also achieve precise control and adjustment of the fluid velocity, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of the test.
[0047] It should be noted that the specifications of the loading water pump 302 need to be selected based on simulation analysis and calculation, and the parameters such as the water pump power and head are calculated according to the loading energy, so that under normal working conditions, the water pump power reaches 70%-80% of the rated power, and the controller selects a variable frequency motor to control the stepless speed regulation of the loading water pump 302.

Figure 3 As shown, through simulation analysis, when the depth of reservoir 1 is 100 meters, the incoming flow pressure is generally around 1MPa, which can accelerate the fluid to 39.5m / s.
[0051] It should be noted that the water tunnel test device in this embodiment is built underground, and the maximum diameter of the experimental section 8 can reach more than 1 meter. Through the setting of a large-depth water reservoir 1 and multiple loading water pumps 302, sufficient acceleration is provided for the fluid, and creative conditions are created for increasing the diameter of the experimental section 8. According to simulation analysis, when the depth of the water reservoir 1 is 100 meters and three loading water pumps 302 are set in the loading section 3, the maximum diameter of the experimental section 8 can reach more than 1 meter, and the velocity of the inflowing fluid can be accelerated to at least 40m / s.

The setting of the observation room 9 facilitates the researchers to observe the experimental process in real time, provides the researchers with direct visual feedback of fluid mechanics phenomena, model behaviors and other key parameters, and facilitates data collection, analysis and optimization.
[0053] In some embodiments, Figure 2As shown, the water tunnel test device also includes a pressure stabilizing section 5, a rectifying section 6, a contraction section 7, a back pressure section 11 and a diffusion section 10; wherein, the pressure stabilizing section 5 is connected to the stabilizing section 4, and the pressure stabilizing section 5 includes a pressure stabilizing chamber 501, which is connected to the connecting pipe 401 and is used to adjust the pressure of the upstream flow; the rectifying section 6 is connected to the pressure stabilizing section 5, and the rectifying section 6 is provided with a guide cover 601 for eliminating radial velocity; the provision of the guide cover 601 is conducive to reducing turbulence, making the fluid more uniform, and improving the reliability of the experiment; one end of the contraction section 7 is connected to the rectifying section 6, and the other end is connected to the experimental section 8; the diameters of the openings at both ends of the contraction section 7 are different, and the contraction section 7 has a larger diameter The opening of the contraction section 7 is used to connect to the rectifying section 6, and the opening with a smaller diameter of the contraction section 7 is used to connect to the experimental section 8, which is used to reduce the turbulence of the fluid; the back pressure section 11 is connected to the diffusion section 10, including a pressure holding chamber 1101, which is used to adjust the back pressure of the water tunnel to control cavitation, which is very important for simulating the fluid behavior under different pressure conditions; one end of the diffusion section 10 is connected to the experimental section 8, and the other end is connected to the back pressure section 11; the diameters of the openings at both ends of the diffusion section 10 are different, the opening with a larger diameter of the diffusion section 10 is used to connect to the back pressure section 11, and the opening with a larger diameter of the diffusion section 10 is used to connect to the experimental section 8, which is used to convert the kinetic energy of the fluid into pressure energy, which helps to achieve a smooth transition of the fluid.
[0054] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the voltage stabilizing section 5 is also provided with a side flow gate control 503, which is installed at the connection between the voltage stabilizing section 5 and the rectifying section 6 to adjust the flow rate of the incoming flow.

[0055] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the rectifying section 6 is further provided with a first gate control 602, which is arranged between the pressure stabilizing section 5 and the flow guide cover 601, and is used to adjust the incoming flow rate to reduce turbulence.

The hydraulic cylinder 502 provides kinetic energy for the pressure adjustment of the stabilizing chamber 501, which can not only ensure the stability of the incoming flow pressure, but also reduce the negative impact of the incoming flow flowing through the loading water pump 302. Since the top of the drain tank 12 is an open outlet, the pressure of the pressure holding chamber 1101 is adjusted by the back pressure tank 1102, and the fluid pressure at the end of the water tunnel is controlled to adjust the back pressure of the water tunnel and better control cavitation.
[0057] In some embodiments, Figure 1As shown, a filter screen 202 for filtering is provided at the connection between the drainage pipe 201 and the water reservoir 1. The filter screen 202 is provided to prevent impurities from entering the water tunnel test process, which helps to maintain the purity of the test water.
[0058] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the drainage section 2 is further provided with a second gate control 203, which is arranged between the drainage pipe 201 and the loading section 3, and is used to prevent impurities from entering the loading section 3 during the normally closed period. The second gate control 203 is arranged to ensure that silt impurities and the like will not enter the pipeline during non-test time, which helps to maintain the cleanliness of the water tunnel experimental device.
[0059] Based on the above-mentioned water tunnel test device, the water tunnel test method applied to the water tunnel test device is described below. The water tunnel test method includes the following steps:
[0060] S1, the fluid enters the loading section 3 from the water reservoir 1 through the drainage section 2, and the loading water pump 302 of each loading branch 301 provides loading power for the fluid;
[0061] S2, the fluid is accelerated and enters the stable section 4, and the flow rate of the fluid in the stable section 4 is obtained by the flow rate sensor 402;

[0064] S5, the fluid passes through the experimental section 8 and enters the drainage tank 12 for temporary storage.
[0065] In the above-mentioned schematic embodiment, the gravitational potential energy provided by the water reservoir 1 and the loading water pump 302 are used together to accelerate the fluid, which can provide a stable power source for the water tunnel test and improve the experimental efficiency; and, by calculating the flow velocity of the experimental section 8 and combining with the controller of the loading water pump 302, the fluid flow velocity can be accurately controlled to improve the real-time and accuracy of the experimental data.
[0066] In some embodiments, in step S3, the flow rate v of the experimental section 8 is obtained by formula (1): s , the expression of formula (1) is:

[0069] In some embodiments, before the fluid enters the experimental section 8, it also includes: the fluid passes through the stable section 4 and sequentially passes through the pressure stabilizing section 5, the rectifying section 6, and the contraction section 7 to enter the experimental section 8; wherein, the pressure stabilizing section 5 adjusts the incoming flow pressure through the pressure stabilizing chamber 501, the rectifying section 6 eliminates the radial velocity of the fluid through the guide cover 601, and the contraction section 7 reduces the turbulence of the fluid through the contraction ratio with different diameters at both ends; in step S5, after passing through the experimental section 8, the fluid passes through the diffusion section 10 and the back pressure section 11 and sequentially enters the drainage tank 12; wherein, the diffusion section 10 converts the kinetic energy of the fluid into pressure energy through the diffusion ratio with different diameters at both ends, and the back pressure section 11 adjusts the water hole back pressure through the pressure holding chamber 1101 to control cavitation.
[0070] It should be noted that the water tunnel test device provided by the utility model has been verified by simulation analysis. Specifically, the water tunnel test device provided by the utility model can meet the model of high Reynolds number, which can be verified by formula (2). The expression of formula (2) is:

[0080] At the same time, in order to ensure that the fluid does not separate after passing through the contraction section 7, thereby generating small turbulence that affects the test effect of the experimental section 8, it is necessary to perform fluid separation verification. Formula (6) is used for separation verification. When formula (6) is established, there is no risk of fluid separation. The expression of formula (6) is:
[0081]
[0082] Among them, the pressure coefficient C p =1-(u e / u m ) 2 ,u e is the potential flow velocity on the boundary of the boundary layer, S is a constant, usually taken as 0.35.
