Research on Dynamic Dissolving Model and Experiment for Rock Salt under Different Flow Conditions

Utilizing deep rock salt cavern is not only a widely recognized energy reserve method but also a key development direction for implementing the energy strategic reserve plan. And rock salt cavern adopts solution mining techniques to realize building cavity. In view of this, the paper, based on the dissolving properties of rock salt, being simplified and hypothesized the dynamic dissolving process of rock salt, combined conditions between dissolution effect and seepage effect in establishing dynamic dissolving models of rock salt under different flow quantities. Devices were also designed to test the dynamic dissolving process for rock salt samples under different flow quantities and then utilized the finite-difference method to find the numerical solution of the dynamic dissolving model. The artificial intelligence algorithm, Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (PSO), was finally introduced to conduct inverse analysis of parameters on the established model, whose calculation results coincide with the experimental data.

Research on the Technology of Three-Dimensional Surface Topological Reconstruction of Underground Rock Salt Cavern Based on Sonar Detection Data

After analyzing the characteristics of rock salt and the feasibility and importance of using underground rock salt cavern as energy stockpiles, this paper explains in detail about the principle of sonar detection technology in cavern measuring and its data organization. This paper studies the technology of three-dimensional surface topological reconstruction of underground rock salt cavern based on sonar detection data with half-edge data structure and boundary representation models. Meanwhile, by conducting validity check for constructed surface model and repair of possible defects, the paper finds correct and effective three-dimensional surface models of underground rock salt cavern, and provides effective data base for the stability analysis, creep analysis and other numerical simulations of underground rock salt cavern. This method, with important economic and social significance, can provide a scientific basis and technological support for the construction of caverns, especially for the safe and rational use of underground rock salt cavern.
