Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of hydraulics monitoring and relates to a universal base for hydraulics prototype observation. Background Art
[0002] For many large-scale water conservancy projects, a significant portion of the discharge structures experience maximum water velocities exceeding 30 m / s, representing high-speed flow. Cavitation damage is highly likely to occur if negative pressure develops in the structure's floor or if the aeration troughs are not properly ventilated. Therefore, monitoring hydraulic parameters such as aeration concentration distribution, flow velocity, and pressure along the discharge structures is a crucial indicator for operational safety.
[0003] The working principle of a resistance-type aeration concentration meter is to determine the aeration concentration by detecting the resistance of the clean water and the resistance of the aerated water flow between two electrodes. Resistance-type aeration concentration meters are used to measure point-time average and pulsating concentrations. Their advantages include compactness, ease of operation, and rapid readings, making them widely used in practical engineering projects. However, resistance-type aeration concentration meters suffer from significant errors when used for high-concentration or boundary measurements. This is because current resistance-type aeration concentration meters require the test base to be submerged in clean water to measure the clean water resistance. Since the clean water temperature is not the actual water temperature of the discharge structure, the measured aeration concentration deviates significantly from the true value, resulting in unstable measurement results. Furthermore, due to the limited layout of traditional hydraulic prototype observation bases, their hydraulic conditions do not meet the requirements for simultaneously installing test water flow aeration concentration and pressure (flow rate) sensors. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a universal base for hydraulic prototype observation of a hydropower station, which solves the problems in the prior art of large measurement value deviation and inability to simultaneously install test water flow aeration concentration and pressure sensors.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is a universal base for hydraulic prototype observation, comprising a base plate, a groove provided on one side of the base plate, a second insulating layer embedded in the groove, a first insulating layer provided in the second insulating layer, an electrode sheet provided between the second insulating layer and the first insulating layer, the electrode sheet being connected to a cable, a second interface and a third interface provided on the other side of the base plate, a first interface provided between the base plate and the second interface, and a plurality of screw holes evenly provided on the edge of the base plate.
[0006] The utility model is also characterized in that:
[0007] The first insulating layer, the second insulating layer and the electrode sheet are concentric rings.
[0008] The base plate and the electrode sheet are both made of stainless steel.
[0009] The first insulating layer and the second insulating layer are both made of gray plastic.
[0010] There are cables connected to both sides of the electrode.
[0011] A small hole is provided at the bottom of the bottom plate groove, and the cable passes through the small hole.
[0012] The bottom plate is a rounded rectangle, and the center of the first interface is located on the long axis of the bottom plate.
[0013] The centers of the second interface and the third interface are respectively located on both sides of the long axis of the bottom plate.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0015] The utility model discloses a universal base for hydraulic prototype observation, which can simultaneously test the aeration concentration, flow velocity, and water depth (i.e., static pressure) of a water flow. The base is provided with a temperature sensor installation position. Under corresponding test conditions, the base's air-water two-phase flow resistance and water temperature are measured. The actual clean water resistance at the bottom plate is interpolated using the pre-derived regression function relationship between the water body temperature and the clean water resistance, ultimately obtaining a more accurate aeration concentration value. In addition, utilizing the Pitot tube principle, a flow rate fish head is installed on the universal base, a pressure transmitter is installed under the flow rate fish head to obtain the dynamic water pressure, and another pressure transmitter is installed to measure the static pressure. The flow rate at the measuring point is calculated based on the pressure difference. This universal test base overcomes the defect that traditional bases cannot simultaneously test the aeration concentration and pressure (flow velocity) of a water flow; and it can effectively improve the test accuracy of the aeration concentration of a water flow.
