And, the microbarom wave can produce explosion sound at the tunnel exit, also can bring adverse effect to the tunnel surrounding building, resident's life. And the existing research shows that the microbarom wave increases with the increase of train speed, and the increase value is approximately proportional to the square of train speed, the time required for pressure increase is inversely proportional to train speed. The gradient of microbarom wave surface is approximately proportional to the cube of train speed.

[0027] The utility model provides a kind of tunnel microbarom wave slowing structure, Figure 1 The utility model provides a kind of tunnel microbarom wave slowing structure.

[0028] As Figure 1 And Figure 3 As shown in the utility model embodiment provides a kind of tunnel microbarom wave slowing structure 100, including the buffer assembly 1 of being close to tunnel entrance 210 or tunnel exit 220 setting, the buffer assembly 1 includes the buffer channel 11 being arranged in the width direction of the tunnel 200 one side, both ends of the buffer channel 11 are communicated with the tunnel 200, and the buffer channel 11 entrance end and train 300 movement direction angle is acute angle.

[0029] The utility model discloses a tunnel microbaric wave alleviating structure 100, which comprises a tunnel 200, a train 300 and a buffer assembly 1, wherein the buffer assembly 1 is arranged at the entrance 210 or the exit 220 of the tunnel 200, and the buffer assembly 1 is connected with the tunnel 200.

[0030] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 The angle between the inlet end of the buffer channel 11 and the movement direction of the train 300 is a, and 20° < a < 30°. If the angle is too large or too small, it will affect the amount of airflow entering. Specifically, when the inclination angle is 26°, the maximum pressure drop can be generated when the airflow passes through the buffer channel 11.

[0031] It should be noted that in an emergency, the tunnel microbaric wave alleviating structure 100 can serve as a refuge chamber. The unique geometry and arrangement of the tunnel microbaric wave alleviating structure 100 can form a relatively stable low-pressure area under the impact of the air pressure wave, providing a refuge for personnel in the tunnel 200. This design can form multiple relatively safe areas inside the tunnel 200, allowing personnel to quickly move to the low-pressure areas formed by the buffer channels 11 in the event of an emergency and obtain temporary refuge opportunities.

[0032] Further, in some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3As shown, the buffer channel 11 comprises a first channel segment 111, a second channel segment 112 and a third channel segment 113, the first channel segment 111 and the third channel segment 113 are both in communication with the tunnel 200, and the first channel segment 111 and the third channel segment 113 are in communication through the second channel segment 112, which is arranged in a curved manner. In this way, on the one hand, the curved arrangement of the second channel segment 112 makes the connection of the first channel segment 111, the second channel segment 112 and the third channel segment 113 smoother, and the airflow can pass through each channel segment more smoothly; on the other hand, since the fluid must cover a longer path when flowing through the second channel segment 112 arranged in a curved manner, the airflow will be forced to accelerate to maintain the continuity of the fluid, and the airflow will accelerate when passing through the second channel segment 112, thereby forming a low-pressure area in the area of the second channel segment 112, which further attracts more airflow into the second channel segment 112, enhancing the acceleration effect of the airflow, thereby improving the slowing effect of the air pressure wave.

[0033] Preferably, in some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the third channel segment 113 is arranged perpendicular to the movement direction of the train 300. The buffer channel 11 has a structure similar to a Tesla valve, and the third channel segment 113 of the buffer channel 11 is changed from a rotary type of the Tesla valve to a vertical type, which can make full use of the space in the tunnel 200 while slowing down the air pressure wave, and further reduces the influence of the terrain at the end of the tunnel exit 220 on the tunnel micro-air pressure wave slowing structure 100.

[0034] The size of each channel segment in the buffer channel 11 is not limited, as long as the airflow can enter from the main road of the tunnel 200, flow through each channel segment and then output back to the main road of the tunnel 200, for example, in some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the diameters of the first channel segment 111, the second channel segment 112 and the third channel segment 113 are the same. In this way, the connection between adjacent channel segments is smoother, making the airflow flow through each channel segment more smoothly.

[0035] Specifically, in some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the diameter of each channel segment is greater than one-third of the diameter of the tunnel 200. In this way, the cross-sectional area of each channel segment is large enough to effectively guide the airflow.

[0036] When the train 300 enters the tunnel 200 at a high speed, there are air pressure waves on both sides of the train 300. In order to slow down the air pressure waves on both sides, in some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown in the drawings, the buffer channels 11 are provided in two, and the two buffer channels 11 are respectively arranged on both sides of the tunnel 200 in the width direction. In this way, since the buffer channels 11 are arranged on both sides of the tunnel 200 in the width direction, the air pressure waves on both sides of the tunnel 200 can be slowed down.

[0037] The specific arrangement position of the two buffer channels 11 is not limited, as long as the two buffer channels 11 can slow down the air pressure waves on both sides of the tunnel 200. In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 the two buffer channels 11 are symmetrically arranged in the width direction of the tunnel 200. In this way, since the two buffer channels 11 are symmetrically arranged in the width direction of the tunnel 200, Figure 4 As shown in the internal vortex diagram of the buffer assembly 1 in FIG. 8, the symmetric arrangement of the two buffer channels 11 enables the local air pressure waves near the two third channel segments 113 to produce greater pressure drop, thereby improving the slowing down effect of the air pressure waves.

[0038] In order to further improve the slowing down effect of the buffer assembly 1 on the air pressure waves, in some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 the buffer channels 11 are provided in multiple, and the multiple buffer channels 11 are arranged at intervals in the length direction of the tunnel 200. By increasing the number of buffer channels 11 of the buffer assembly 1, the slowing down effect on the air pressure waves can be improved. However, considering the construction cost and difficulty, the number of buffer channels 11 will not be increased too much, and the specific number is determined according to the length of the tunnel 200 and the required release effect. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the buffer channels 11 on one side are provided in three, and the distance between adjacent buffer channels 11 is 5m.

[0039] It should be noted that the above two technical features can be provided at the same time, that is, the buffer assembly 1 includes multiple buffer channels 11, and the multiple buffer channels 11 are symmetrically arranged in pairs.

[0040] The buffer assembly 1 is arranged at the tunnel entrance 210 or the outlet 220 alone, which can slow down the micro air pressure wave. In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 the buffer assembly 1 is provided in two, and the two buffer assemblies 1 are respectively arranged near the tunnel entrance 210 and the outlet 220. By arranging the buffer assembly 1 at the entrance 210 and the outlet 220 of the tunnel 200, the buffer assembly 1 at the entrance 210 of the tunnel can reduce the wave front gradient of the initial compression wave, so that the amplitude of the air pressure wave transmitted to the outlet 220 area of the tunnel is reduced. Combined with the buffer assembly 1 at the outlet 220, the amplitude of the micro air pressure wave at the outlet 220 can be significantly reduced.

[0041] Preferably, in some embodiments, the height of the buffer channel 11 is the same as the height of the tunnel 200. Thus arranged, the buffer channel 11 facilitates the guiding of the air pressure wave across the entire cross-section of the tunnel 200.

[0042] The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
