Description

technical field

The utility model relates to the technical field of ocean mixing on-site observation, in particular to a novel deep-sea full-section observation turbulence mixing profiler.

Background technique

At present, the ocean turbulence mixing measurement instruments are mainly divided into the following two categories: ship-mounted cable turbulence profiler and ship-mounted cable-free turbulence profiler. The former measures the water depth range from 500 meters to 2000 meters; the latter has no cable, and the instrument basically falls at a constant speed of "free fall". When the instrument reaches the specified depth, it completes the mixed profile measurement by throwing the load and floating up. This type of instrument is suitable for deep sea For the measurement of turbulent mixing, the measurement range of the current commercialized instrument is 2000 meters to 4000 meters.

The measuring instrument is designed with an integrated structure, and the instrument has its own vibration during ocean observation, which interferes with the data collection of the probe; the measuring instrument is in the process of underwater movement. Vibration signals will be generated due to the influence of lateral ocean currents and its own wake, which will seriously interfere with the real measurement signals of fast temperature and shear probes. 2. Since the measuring instruments cannot carry out autonomous control of underwater motion attitude, etc., there are two blind spots in the instrument observation, that is, the direct observation of the upper sea-air interface near the water body boundary layer and the seabed water-solid interface near the water body boundary layer cannot be realized. This restricts the research process of the two interfacial substances and the mechanism of energy exchange.

The solenoid valve 6 includes a valve body 601 and a valve core 602, and the end of the valve body 601 is provided with a first fixed plate 603 and a second fixed plate 603 in parallel. The fixed plate 604 is connected with the fixed shaft 605 between the first fixed plate 603 and the second fixed plate 604, and one end of the steering baffle 606 is hinged on the fixed shaft 605, and the other end of the steering baffle 606 is provided with a valve core 602 Matching insertion port 607. A release rope 7 is arranged on each weight block and each half of the floating body material block, and one end of the release rope 7 is snapped into the insertion opening. When the solenoid valve was in a power-off state, the spool was inserted into the embedding port under the resilient force of the built-in spring of the solenoid valve, and simultaneously pressed the release rope 7 stuck in the embedding port.

The turbulent mixing profiler developed by the utility model has the characteristics of smooth movement, no vibration and the like. In order to meet the refinement requirements that the profiler can turn over and change its own measurement attitude autonomously underwater, the profiler adopts a streamlined design to reduce flow separation and fluid oscillation of the wake vortex, and maximize the motion stability of the profiler. The distance between the center and the center of gravity makes the movement of the profiler stable and does not affect the turning to improve the ability to resist water flow interference. By changing the center of gravity and center of buoyancy and the large-scale load dump design, the positions of the center of gravity and the center of buoyancy are changed, and then the load dump ratio is adjusted to achieve the design requirement that the profiler's own attitude is both stable and reversible.

Traditional ocean mixing observers are usually designed as an integrated structure, and the cost of shell materials and processing is relatively high. And due to the rigid connection of the instrument, the vibration of the profiler cannot be eliminated. The profiler developed and designed by the utility model adopts the international first split design, and uses a flexible shock-absorbing coupling frame to flexibly connect the two cabins. The connection between the fixing ring (shock absorbing ring) and the cabin body is formed by integral stamping, which meets the reliability of the connection between the two cabins under high pressure. The interior of the flexible shock-absorbing coupling ring is water-permeable, and the probe cabin is electrically connected with the instrument cabin through a watertight cable. The use of this technology will block the vibration caused by the wake flow of the profiler, thereby eliminating the interference of the system's own vibration on the data acquisition of the probe. In addition, high-sensitivity and high-precision acceleration and attitude sensors are installed inside the probe cabin to measure the vibration signal of the system itself.

In order to realize the direct observation of the dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy in the boundary layer near the seabed, the profiler of the utility model also has the function of anti-bottoming. Specifically, the optimal timing of load dumping and the optimal height from the bottom can be determined based on hydrodynamic analysis and the built-in sensor of the profiler. At the same time, the front end of the profiler is also equipped with a probe protection ring made of high-strength material to protect the sensor on the probe cabin and prevent accidental touch.

In order to meet the observation needs of mixed diversity in the deep sea, the utility model adjusts the position of its own center of gravity and buoyancy by throwing a load weight or a floating block, thereby changing the movement mode. When using the hybrid observation mode of the seabed boundary layer, the system will judge the depth of the dive and the distance to the bottom through the pressure sensor and the altimeter after the profiler enters the water. When the dumping conditions are met, the profiler dumping mechanism will dump the heavy objects and stop the data collection task. After the dumping is completed, the buoyancy of the profiler is greater than the gravity, and it starts to float up to the sea surface. The mother ship can locate and recover it through the GPS beacon of the profiler itself.

When the mixed observation mode of the sea surface boundary layer is used, the profiler is hung by a loose cable. Loading block and floating block, adjust the position of the center of gravity and buoyancy center of the profiler itself, so that the center of gravity and the center of buoyancy are shifted in the axial position of the instrument, so as to achieve the purpose of turning over. After the profiler is turned over, it moves vertically upwards and collects all measurement parameters until it reaches the sea surface. During the upward movement, the cable remains slack, and the profiler can be recovered by the cable after reaching the surface.

The data acquisition control system of the utility model adopts a modular and functional design. The probe cabin mainly integrates data acquisition related modules. The center position of the front end outside the cabin adopts the method of vertical mounting of double shear probes and synchronous observation of double fast temperature probes to achieve mutual verification and improve the accuracy of observation during the mixing process. The temperature, salt and depth measurement module is installed outside the instrument cabin as an independent acquisition system. The interior of the instrument cabin mainly integrates the functional configuration of the profiler and the related modules of motion attitude control.

The utility model uses a shear measurement module to measure the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, a fast temperature measurement module to measure the heat dissipation rate, and a temperature, salt, and depth measurement module to use a low-drift amplifier circuit, and at the same time, the synchronous sampling technology ensures the consistency of the measurement time and improves the measurement parameters. the accuracy. The output signals of the shearing, rapid temperature and temperature, salt and depth probes are processed by the conditioning circuit and then subjected to synchronous analog-to-digital conversion. The conversion results are received by the data acquisition module through the digital bus. At the same time, the data of the attitude and acceleration measurement modules are additionally collected for real-time compensation and correction. Cut measurement data. Finally, the data acquisition module sends all the collected data to the main control module located inside the instrument cabin through serial communication, and the main control module is responsible for storing the collected data of various ocean mixed characteristic quantities in the TF card. When the profiler is recovered, the PC can communicate with the main control module through the serial port to quickly read the sampling data.

While the main control module is responsible for data collection and storage, it can also determine the timing of the profiler to adjust the motion posture by configuring the system working time and working mode. When the profiler works in the mixed observation mode of the seabed boundary layer, the main control module automatically collects altimeter data and depth data, and combines the anti-bottoming logic algorithm to complete the gravity dump operation. When the profiler works in the mixed observation mode of the sea surface boundary layer, the main control module uses the pressure sensor to monitor the depth data in real time, and triggers the dump signal at the preset depth (generally 100 meters), and the gravity dump mechanism and the buoyancy dump mechanism will At the same time, the load dump is completed, and the profiler completes the attitude reversal and enters the working state.

In order to turn the profiler over to adjust the observation position of the probe cabin, the utility model changes the center of gravity and buoyancy center and large-scale load dumping design at the same time, so that the position changes of the center of gravity and buoyancy meet the design requirements, and improves the stability of the profiler overturning Therefore, it meets the direct observation requirements of the profiler from the sea-air interface to the seabed boundary layer.

In order to break through the bottleneck of synchronous observation technology of marine macro-microcosmic mixed process, the utility model abandons the traditional single-parameter mixed observation technology and adopts multi-parameter sensor synchronous measurement technology instead. At the same time, in order to obtain the physical parameter data of the carrier's descent and ascent process, especially the sea-air interface to the seabed boundary layer, the system also integrates a temperature, salinity and depth measurement system. In addition, the safety of the overall system is ensured by combining the synchronous measurement of the deep-sea altimeter and pressure sensor with the anti-bottoming logic algorithm.

In order to maximize the elimination of the signal interference of the rapid temperature and shear probes caused by the vibration caused by the transverse ocean current and its own wake during the underwater movement of the profiler, the utility model adopts low water resistance, streamlined design, and optimized Configure the profiler weight and buoyancy center to improve the stability of the profiler itself. At the same time, the method of combining the active sensor vibration signal monitoring technology with the passive mechanical shock absorption technology is used to eliminate the pollution and influence of the vibration signal on the real measurement signal of the sensor.

The profiler of the utility model can work at a depth of 4,000 meters in the deep sea, has the capability of turning over and anti-vibration interference, improves the reliability and diversity of on-site mixed observation data, and meets the needs of deep-sea mixed fine observation. The profiler can realize simultaneous observation of parameters such as turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, heat dissipation rate, and temperature-salinity profile by simultaneously carrying shear sensors, deep-sea rapid temperature sensors, and temperature-salt depth sensors, breaking through the limitations of traditional turbulent mixing profilers. limitation.

Relevant technical contents not mentioned in the above methods can be realized by adopting or referring to existing technologies.

It should be noted that under the teaching of this specification, any equivalent replacement or obvious modification made by those skilled in the art shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
