The invention relates to an experimental device for testing
fracture toughness of rocks under a pore pressure condition. The experimental device comprises a testing
machine, a confining pressure cavity and a clamping clamp. The testing
machine comprises a testing
machine rigid frame, a
rigid frame pressing head, a trolley, a sliding rail, a hydraulic shaft and a
hydraulic cylinder; the confining pressure cavity comprises a confining pressure
barrel pressing head, a confining pressure
barrel, a confining pressure
barrel base and a positioning rod; the clamping clamp comprises a clamping base, a stand column, a supporting plate, a supporting roller, a pore pressure end socket, a compaction part, an upper cover plate, a clamp pressing head, an upper ring, a fixed bolt, a probe and a lower plate. The experimental device is simple in structure, convenient to operate and high in practicability, can be used for carrying out a
fracture toughness test on rock materials and
artificial materials under confining pressure-containing, high-temperature and pore pressure-containing conditions; an obtained result is more accurate, and accurate
fracture toughness parameters are provided for calculation of hydraulic fracture models of oilfields and research institutes.
