Sumario: | Abstract Based on the engineering environment where rocks surrounding wellbores in energy storage areas are influenced by high temperature, cool and hot water, thermal stress etc. in the exploitation of hydrothermally geothermal energy, the experimental study on mechanical properties of ring granite under the static and dynamic loads in the water-heat condition was performed. The experimental results showed that when the ring granite was influenced by the inner diameters, heating temperatures, curing temperatures and heat recovery cycle times, the impact load-strain curves were nonlinear. However, the concave stages, platform stages and cliff-like drop stages appeared in the load-strain curves under the static loads. The radical peak loads decreased exponentially with the growth of the damage factors and the dynamic peak loads were far greater than the static peak loads. By analyzing the damage cracks and broken fragments, it was found that under the static and dynamic radical loads, the cracks generated in the ring specimens were tensile cracks and the failure mode was tensile failure. However, the dynamic failure was more aggressive than the static failure. Then, the apparent deformation modulus was defined to describe the deformation characteristics of ring granite before the radical peak loads. And it is found that the variation law of dynamic apparent deformation modulus is more dispersed than the changes of static apparent deformation modulus. Finally, based on the deformation and failure characteristics of ring granite obtained from the tests, the static and dynamic failure criteria considering whether the cracks along the loading direction were generated in the inner ring wall were deduced and verified by the corresponding tests. |
