Technical Field

The invention relates to a simulation device, in particular to a tornado and downburst integrated physical simulation device.

Background

The strong convection extreme weather such as tornado has the characteristics of small action range, short duration and high action strength, and is one of the most frequent disasters with the greatest destructive power in natural disasters. Because China is densely populated in the tornado generating area, and the tornado early warning system and the disaster-resistant facility foundation are weak. Therefore, from the indexes of casualties quantity, house damage degree and the like, tornado has great influence on China, and the occurrence frequency tends to increase year by year along with global warming. Downburst is a stream of intense downwash that causes radiant, catastrophic high winds on or near the ground, typically in thunderstorm clouds, which, when radiated towards the ground, can produce destructive and catastrophic high winds with above-ground horizontal wind speeds in excess of 18m/s, and the occurrence of downbursts can have catastrophic effects on navigation and aircraft.

Aiming at the great threat to the life and property safety of people and the social safety and stability caused by the extreme weather of the tornadoes and downburst, the research on the environment of the tornadoes and the downburst and the effect of the environment on the engineering structure is urgently needed. Due to the characteristics of the downburst and strong destructiveness, the tornado has the characteristics of strong burstiness, small horizontal dimension, short duration, high moving speed and the like, so that the field actual measurement research on the characteristics of the natural tornado and downburst wind fields is difficult. Compared with field actual measurement, the experimental simulation research has the advantages of high safety, high repetition rate and the like. And compared with numerical simulation, the reliability is higher. Therefore, the method for generating tornadoes and downburst flows by adopting a physical simulator and researching the wind field characteristics of the tornadoes and the downburst flows is an important means for recognizing and researching the characteristics of the tornadoes and the effect of the characteristics on engineering structures.

At present, for physical experiment simulation of real tornado and downburst under natural conditions, although a simulator appears, the existing simulator has the following problems: (1) the tornado is in a multi-end tornado shape under natural conditions, oblique tornado, oblique downburst and variable-speed random motion tornado and downburst can possibly occur, the moving tracks of the tornado and the downburst are irregular, the moving range is wide, and when an existing simulator is used for simulation experiments, a flat plate can be controlled to be in a horizontal state only, and translation within a two-dimensional limited range is realized in a horizontal plane; (2) when an existing simulator is used for experiments, only the wind field characteristics of a single extreme weather can be simulated, and the wind field characteristics of tornadoes and downburst currents in a coupling state in an actual situation cannot be simulated; (3) the existing simulators can only perform one type of simulation experiment in a short time, and the economic cost of separately constructing the simulators and the time cost spent switching to perform the simulation experiment are high.
