Research on Influence of Thermosiphon Layout on Cooling Effect on Transmission Line Pile Foundation in Permafrost Region

Article Preview

Abstract:

Research work on the thermosiphon layout design of transmission line pile foundation in Geermu permafrost region was performed by finite element method and the influence of thermosiphon layout design on the temperature of soil around pile foundation was calculated and analyzed. The numerical calculation results indicated that the cooling effect of thermosiphon was obvious, but the coolling effect varied with the difference of thermosiphon layout design. The more thermosiphon bars were laid out aound pile foundation, the lower the temperature of soil around pile foundation. The cooling effect of thermosiphon on pile foundation and soil became weaker and weaker with the increment of the horizontal distance between soil and thermosiphon-pile. The layout design of 12 thermosiphon bars was the best for the transmission line pile foundation in permafrost region.
