METHOD OF TESTING MODELS OF MARINE ENGINEERING STRUCTURE IN ICE EXPERIENCE POOL AND DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION

摘要

1. A method of testing a marine engineering structure in an ice test basin, according to which a model, for example a platform, is rigidly connected to a dynamometer, which on the other hand is attached to the base on the side of the pool, and a bottom simulator is placed under the model and rigidly suspended from the base using racks, placed in the aft part outside the model, the ice field is frozen, which is then pulled onto the model with the help of a towing cart and the experimental parameters are recorded, characterized in that they additionally simulate the bottom in its front part is fixed to the base with struts passing through the test model, then with the help of those and other racks they regulate and establish the gap between the bottom simulator and the model and carry out tests. ! 2. A device for testing an offshore engineering structure in an ice test basin, containing a towing trolley with a bulldozer for pushing ice onto a model, for example a platform, a rigid base fixed to the side of the pool, to which the tested model is connected through a dynamometer and a bottom simulator using racks placed in the aft end behind the model, characterized in that the bottom simulator in the front part is supplemented by stands connected to a rigid base and passing through the tested model of the platform, in which said racks are formed by wells, while the racks are equipped with means for adjusting and setting the gap between the bottom simulator and the model, mainly lanyards, during testing.
