Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of water conservancy and hydropower, and particularly relates to an aeration device for enhancing a stilling basin. Background Art

[0002] Bottom flow energy dissipation means that a stilling basin is arranged downstream of a water discharge structure so that the flow energy is consumed through rolling, aeration and friction. A tail sill and stilling piers can be arranged in the stilling basin to further enhance the energy dissipation effect, which is one of the most commonly used energy dissipation methods in water conservancy and hydropower projects.

[0003] It has been found in the completed projects that cavitation damage is likely to occur at the entrance of the stilling basin, the side walls of the auxiliary stilling piers, the downstream side of the tail sill and the bottom slab of the stilling basin. Research shows that when the aeration concentration reaches 3%, cavitation damage can be effectively improved, and when the aeration concentration reaches 7%, cavitation damage can be avoided. However, it is not easy to aerate the stilling basin. Only relying on the self-aeration of the flow rolling in the stilling basin, the aeration effect is poor. Especially, the aeration concentration at the bottom slab of the stilling basin is less than 1%. Summary of the Utility Model

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0021] The present utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] The present utility model provides an air entrainment device for enhancing the energy dissipation pool, as shown in Figure 1 and 2As shown in the figure, it includes the stilling basin floor slab 1. One side of the stilling basin floor slab 1 is connected to the discharge structure floor slab 2. Side walls 3 are jointly arranged on the sides of the stilling basin floor slab 1 and the discharge structure floor slab 2. A rotating device 6 and a guide sill 7 are arranged on the stilling basin floor slab 1. A tail sill 4 and stilling blocks 5 are arranged on the stilling basin floor slab 1. The tail sill 4 is arranged at the end of the stilling basin floor slab 1, and the stilling blocks 5 are arranged between the rotating device 6 and the tail sill 4. The rotating device 6 is arranged near the discharge structure floor slab 2, and the guide sill 7 is arranged on the side of the rotating device 6 close to the discharge structure floor slab 2. The guide sill 7 has a slope. The rotating device 6 includes a shaft body 61, blades 62 and a driving shaft 63. The blades 62 surround the outside of the shaft body 61, and the driving shaft 63 is arranged at both ends of the shaft body 61. Air inlet holes 8 are vertically opened on the side walls 3, and the air inlet holes 8 are opened near the driving shaft 63. A suction fan 9 is arranged in the air inlet holes 8. Exhaust holes 10 are opened on the side walls of the tail sill 4, the stilling blocks 5 and the side walls 3, and the exhaust holes 10 are communicated with the air inlet holes 8 through an air duct 11. A driven shaft 91 is arranged at the center of the suction fan 9, and the driven shaft 91 is connected with a speed-changing gear 12. The speed-changing gear 12 includes a driving bevel gear 121 and a driven bevel gear 122. The driving bevel gear 121 is fixed on the driving shaft 63, and the driven bevel gear 122 is fixed on the driven shaft 91.

[0023] Among them, as Figure 1 shown, three layers of suction fans 9 are arranged on the driven shaft 91. To further increase the air intake volume, more layers of suction fans 9 can also be arranged.

[0024] Among them, as Figure 3 shown, the elevation of the stilling basin floor slab 1 is lower than the elevation of the end of the discharge structure floor slab 2, so that the water flow enters the stilling basin and forms a cavity here, which is more conducive to air entrainment. The tail sill 4 is located at the end of the stilling basin, the stilling blocks 5 are located at the 2 / 3 position of the stilling basin, and the rotating device 6 is located at the 1 / 3 position of the stilling basin.

[0025] The tail sill 4 and the stilling blocks 5 are not necessarily arranged. The function of the two is to increase the energy dissipation effect of the stilling basin. Whether to arrange them specifically is designed according to the energy dissipation effect. Whether there are the tail sill 4 and the stilling blocks 5 does not affect the implementation of the air entrainment device for enhancing the stilling basin of the present invention.

[0026] Among them, as Figure 3 shown, a part of the rotating device 6 is embedded in the stilling basin floor slab 1, and a part is located on the stilling basin floor slab 1, and it rotates by the impact of the water flow on the blades 62.

[0027] It should be noted that the part of the rotating device 6 embedded in the stilling basin floor slab 1 should not be less than 1 / 2 of the rotating device 6, so that the water flow impacts the upper blades and drives the rotating device to rotate in the direction of the water flow.

[0028] Among them, as Figure 3As shown, the guide sill 7 is arranged on the upstream side of the rotating device with a slope of 1:10. Its purpose is to prevent the water flow from hitting the shaft body 61, so that the water flow hits the upper blade 62, thereby driving the shaft body 61 to rotate in the direction of the water flow.

[0029] As Figure 4 shown, the driving bevel gear and the driven bevel gear are engaged and driven through saw teeth. The radius of the driving bevel gear is larger than that of the driven bevel gear, so as to achieve the effect of accelerating the rotation speed of the driven shaft.

[0030] The enhanced energy dissipation pool aeration device provided by the present embodiment is specifically implemented as follows: The high-speed water flow flows from the bottom plate 2 of the water discharge structure to the bottom plate 1 of the energy dissipation pool; the water flow hits the blade 62 through the guide sill 7, and part of the kinetic energy is converted into mechanical energy, driving the shaft body 61 to rotate; the shaft body 61 rotates, and the driven shaft 91 is accelerated to rotate through the speed-changing gear 12; the rotation of the driven shaft 91 drives the suction fan 9 to rotate, and the rotation of the suction fan causes air to be sucked into the air inlet hole 8; the sucked air is transmitted through the air delivery pipe 11 and discharged from the exhaust hole 10 to reach the parts of the energy dissipation pool that need to be aerated.
