Orthogonal Experiment Design of Numerical Simulation for Underground Oil Storage Caverns

摘要

An appropriate scheme is very important to the design of underground oil storage caverns.The layout and direction of caverns,the shape and dimension of section,the construction sequence,and excavation methods will have different effects on the optimum design and long-term stabilities of storage caverns.Considering these actual characters in the numerical simulation experiment for the design of underground oil storage caverns,the orthogonal experiment design is applied to the optimizing design of the caverns,and the optimum layout and directions of the caverns,the appropriate dimensions of the section,the optimum horizontal spacing between caverns,and construction sequence have been obtained.The corresponding calculation methods on the experiment parameters have been established.
