Abstract
Monitoring seepage by temperature tracer method has been widely used, where the vertical flow has been proven to be an indispensable factor. However, current research still lacks adequate consideration of it, especially for the natural convection caused by active heating. In this paper, theoretical derivation and experiments are both conducted, a two-dimensional dimensionless temperature rise–seepage velocity formula considering the natural convection is derived. Meanwhile, through the experiment system and a multi-temperature measuring sheets device, heating and temperature measurement experiments are carried out under calm water and various flow velocities ranging from 10−6 cm s−1 to 10−3 cm s−1. By comparing the temperature–time curves of different positions at different heating times in calm water, the mechanism of natural convection caused by active heating is researched. Based on this, several temperature measuring sheets are chosen, the formulas of different positions are obtained by fitting, relative influence to temperature rise–flow velocity patterns of different positions are studied. This study is of great significance for further understanding the temperature-velocity relationship, and for the design of heating-temperature measuring device used in seepage velocity monitoring with active heating.
期刊介绍:
Flow Measurement and Instrumentation is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results on all aspects of flow measurement, in both closed conduits and open channels. The design of flow measurement systems involves a wide variety of multidisciplinary activities including modelling the flow sensor, the fluid flow and the sensor/fluid interactions through the use of computation techniques; the development of advanced transducer systems and their associated signal processing and the laboratory and field assessment of the overall system under ideal and disturbed conditions.
FMI is the essential forum for critical information exchange, and contributions are particularly encouraged in the following areas of interest:
Modelling: the application of mathematical and computational modelling to the interaction of fluid dynamics with flowmeters, including flowmeter behaviour, improved flowmeter design and installation problems. Application of CAD/CAE techniques to flowmeter modelling are eligible.
Design and development: the detailed design of the flowmeter head and/or signal processing aspects of novel flowmeters. Emphasis is given to papers identifying new sensor configurations, multisensor flow measurement systems, non-intrusive flow metering techniques and the application of microelectronic techniques in smart or intelligent systems.
Calibration techniques: including descriptions of new or existing calibration facilities and techniques, calibration data from different flowmeter types, and calibration intercomparison data from different laboratories.
Installation effect data: dealing with the effects of non-ideal flow conditions on flowmeters. Papers combining a theoretical understanding of flowmeter behaviour with experimental work are particularly welcome.
