The invention provides a surrounding rock
drying experiment
system and method for simulating
underground cavern ventilation, the experiment
system comprises an environment test box, a fan, a heating device, at least
two temperature and
humidity sensors and an
air flow meter are arranged at the top of the environment test box, and at least two
humidity and temperature instruments are arranged at the bottom of the environment test box. At least four digital balances are arranged in the environmental test box, a first sample, a second sample, a third sample and water are respectively arranged on the digital balances, four thermocouples at equal intervals are arranged in the first sample, a
thermometer is arranged on the first sample, and a
thermocouple is arranged on the surface of the water; the fan, the heating device, the temperature and
humidity sensor, the
air flow meter, the humidity and temperature instrument, the digital balance, the
thermocouple and the
thermometer are in
signal connection with the upper computer. According to the invention, the
drying process of surrounding rock under the ventilation condition of the
underground cavern can be simulated, including real-time observation of
water saturation, temperature change and the like, and a new thought is provided for research of sealing performance (air leakage) and stability of the
compressed air energy storage cavern.
