Medical oxygen, one of the most important medical gases, has been widely applied both in hospitals and at home. It is defined as a drug and its pipeline distribution systems are medical devices whose quality and management should conform to specific standards. In China, several deficiencies relating to the distribution and use of medical oxygen, which may lead to a number of fatal accidents like gas pipeline explosion and cause illicit product use, have been revealed in health facilities.

The focus of this paper is to provide a better understanding of this phenomenon in an offshore pile-supported pipeline system. The beat phenomeon is caused by the coupling movement of the pipeline and its vertical pile support under certain conditions.

Numerical results in both frequency and time domains are presented to elucidate this phenomenon in a combined pipeline system. The conclusions of this paper could give constructive guidance to future design of simply supported pipeline systems.展开更多

Reduction in overpressure and negative pressure may be necessary to avoid failure, to improve the efficiency of operation and to avoid fatigue of system components. The field tests on the water hammer have been conducted on the pump rising pipeline system with an air chamber. The hydraulic transient was simulated using the method of characteristics. Minimizing the least squares problem representing the difference between the measured and predicted transient response in the system performs the calibration of the simulation program. Among the input variables used in the water hammer analysis, the polytropic exponent, the discharge coefficient and the wave speed were calibrated. The computer program developed in this study will be useful in designing the optimum parameters of an air chamber for the real pump pipeline system. The correct selection of air chamber size and the effect of the inner diameter of the orifice to minimize water hammer have been investigated by both field measurements and numerical modeling.展开更多

文摘Losses due to hazards are inevitable and numerical simulations for estimations are complex.This study proposes a model for estimating correlated seismic damages and losses of a water supply pipeline system as an alternative for numerical simulations.The common approach in other research shows average damage spots per mesh estimated statistically independent to one another.Spatially distributed lifeline systems,such as water supply pipelines,are interconnected,and seismic spatial variability affects the damages across the region;thus,spatial correlation of damage spots is an important factor in target areas for portfolio loss estimation.Generally,simulations are used to estimate possible losses;however,these assume each damage behaves independently and uncorrelated.This paper assumed that damages per mesh behave in a Poisson distribution to avoid over-dispersion and eliminate negative losses in estimations.The purpose of this study is to obtain a probabilistic portfolio loss model of an extensive water supply area.The proposed model was compared to the numerical simulation data with the correlated Poisson distribution.The application of the Normal To Anything(NORTA)obtained correlations for Poisson Distributions.The proposed probabilistic portfolio loss model,based on the generalized linear model and central limit theory,estimated the possible losses,such as the Probable Maximum Loss(PML,90%non-exceedance)or Normal Expected Loss(NEL,50%non-exceedance).The proposed model can be used in other lifeline systems as well,though additional investigation is needed for confirmation.From the estimations,a seismic physical portfolio loss for the water supply system was presented.The portfolio was made to show possible outcomes for the system.The proposed method was tested and analyzed using an artificial field and a location-based scenario of a water supply pipeline system.This would aid in pre-disaster planning and would require only a few steps and time.

文摘When designing a complex pipeline with long distance and multi-supports for offshore platform,it is necessary to analyze the vibration characteristics of the complex pipeline system to ensure that there is no harmful resonance in the working conditions.Therefore,the optimal layout of support is an effective method to reduce the vibration response of hydraulic pipeline system.In this paper,a developed dynamic optimization method for the complex pipeline is proposed to investigate the vibration characteristics of complex pipeline with multi-elastic supports.In this method,the Kriging response surface model between the support position and pipeline is established.The position of the clamp in the model is parameterized and the optimal solution of performance index is obtained by genetic algorithm.The number of clamps and the interval between clamps are considered as the constraints of layout optimization,and the optimization objective is the natural frequencies of pipeline.Taking a typical offshore pipeline as example to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method,the results show that the vibration performance of the hydraulic pipeline system is distinctly improved by the optimization procedure,which can provide reasonable guidance for the design of complex hydraulic pipeline system.
文摘This work focuses on the development and implementation of a simulation-based approach for the detection of partial and extended blockages within an edible oil pipeline system. Blockages, whether partial or extended, pose a significant operational and safety risks. This study employs computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to model the flow behaviour of edible oil through pipeline under varying conditions. It leverages advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to analyze pressure, velocity, and temperature variations along the pipeline. By simulating scenarios with different blockage characteristics, there is establishment of distinctive patterns indicative of partial and extended obstructions. Through extensive analysis of simulation data, sensing element, and monitoring system, processing signal input and response output, the system can accurately pinpoint the location and severity of blockages, providing crucial insights for timely intervention. The detection system represents a significant advancement in pipeline monitoring technology, offering a proactive and accurate approach to identify blockages and mitigate potential risks and ensure the uninterrupted flow of edible oil, thereby enabling timely intervention and maintenance.

文摘The global discussion surrounding Functionally Graded Materials(FGMs)highlights their unique and diverse micro-material properties that result from varying two or more materials in a strategic combination profile.These combinations produce distinct physical and chemical characteristics.Changes in these characteristics may occur continuously,referred to as a gradient function,or discontinuously as a stepwise function.The changes can appear within homogeneous or heterogeneous material geometries.The variation in material properties depends on the volume fraction index function.This variation can occur in 1D,2D,or 3D,either in the thickness or length direction within a material model.The vacuum in the review study on mechanically toughened and thermally resistant Functionally Graded(FG)pipelines prompted the current review study.This study addresses the absence of an appropriate variational function for FG cylindrical pipelines.It proposes a gradation function pattern to improve pipeline structural performance.An appraisal based on relevant FGM literature was conducted to improve the temperature differentials in traditional composite materials and stress-related issues in carbon steel pipelines.The review identifies specific FGM property variations that reduce failures that are possible in conventional materials.Reviewed articles and evaluation procedures followed the 2020 PRISMA guidelines.Literature was obtained from Scopus,Connected Papers,and other reputable sources.The study also discusses potential FG pipelines for gas and green energy transportation.The reviewed literature establishes the context for this research and addresses the gap in 3D FG model variation functions involving multiple materials.

文摘This paper examines how natural gas disperses vertically when high-pressure pipelines with large openings fail in unconfined environments,providing insight into hazardous gas cloud development and behavior.A comprehensive study was conducted using a full-scale field experiment(1,219 mm diameter,12 MPa pressure,100 mm aperture)combined with a validated computational fluid dynamics(CFD)numerical simulation model to systematically analyze the coupling effects of pipeline pressure and ambient wind speed.The results indicate that:(1)Pipeline pressure determines the vertical jet scale,where jet height is positively correlated with pressure;at 12 MPa,the maximum jet height reaches 69.4 m(approximately 2.65 times that at 4 MPa),and the lower explosive limit(LEL)cloud area follows a quadratic polynomial trend.(2)Ambient wind speed significantly alters the diffusion trajectory;at a wind speed of 10 m/s,the LEL gas cloud area expands by 1.69 times compared to calm conditions,while the jet height is suppressed to 29.9%of the calm wind value.(3)Our developed dynamic prediction model for the hazardous gas-cloud region achieves a determination coefficient of 0.975 and maintaining prediction errors maintained within approximately 12%.The proposed empirical correlations and dynamic prediction model provide essential quantitative data support for safety-distance design and emergency-response decision-making for high-pressure natural gas pipelines.
文摘The increasing occurrence of corrosion-related damage in steel pipelines has led to the growing use of composite-based repair techniques as an efficient alternative to traditional replacement methods.Computer modeling and structural analysis were performed for the repair reinforcement of a steel pipeline with a composite bandage.A preliminary analysis of possible contact interaction schemes was implemented based on the theory of cylindrical shells,taking into account transverse shear deformations.The finite element method was used for a detailed study of the stress state of the composite bandage and the reinforced section of the pipeline.The limit state of the reinforced section was assessed based on the von Mises criterion for steel and the Tsai-Wu criterion for composites.The effectiveness of the repair was demonstrated on a pipeline whose wall thickness had decreased by 20%as a result of corrosion damage.At a nominal pressure of P=6 MPa,the maximum normal stress in the weakened area reached 381 MPa.The installation of a composite bandage reduced this stress to 312 MPa,making the repaired section virtually as strong as the undamaged pipeline.Due to the linearity of the problem,the results obtained can be easily used to find critical internal pressure values.

文摘In ultraviolet cured-in-place-pipe(UV-CIPP)pipeline rehabilitation,resin performance critically determines repair effectiveness.Current UV-curable resins exhibit high volatile organic compound(VOC)emissions and inadequate post-cure toughness,which compromise fatigue resistance during service.To address these issues,we synthesized hydroxyl-terminated polyurethane acrylate prepolymers using diphenylmethane diisocyanate(MDI),polypropylene glycol(PPG),and hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA).Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)confirmed successful prepolymer synthesis.We developed UV-curable resins by incorporating various crosslinking monomers and optimized the formulations through mechanical property analysis.Testing revealed that the polyurethane-acrylic UV-cured resin system combines polyurethane's mechanical excellence with acrylics'high UV-curing activity.The PPG200/MDI/HEMA formulation achieved superior performance,with a tensile strength of 55.31 MPa,an impact toughness of 22.7 kJ/m^(2),and a heat deflection temperature(HDT)of 132℃.The optimized system eliminates volatile components while maintaining high reactivity,addressing critical limitations in trenchless pipeline rehabilitation.The improved mechanical properties meet the operational demands of underground pipes,suggesting practical applicability in trenchless pipeline repair.

文摘With the maturation of coalbed methane(CBM)exploitation and the transition into the late stages of dewatering and gas production,liquid loading in gathering pipelines has emerged as a major constraint on productivity and operational stability.Based on real-time field data and gas-liquid physicochemical analyses,this study elucidates the mechanisms governing liquid loading formation under varying temperature,pressure,and water saturation conditions.An HYSYS model is employed to determine the water dew point,while the Turner model is used to evaluate the critical conditions for liquid holdup.The results indicate that gas water saturation exerts the dominant influence on liquid loading risk,followed by pressure,whereas temperature plays a comparatively minor role.When water saturation exceeds 2%and the operating temperature falls below the dew point,condensation-driven liquid loading increases sharply.To further characterize the spatial distribution of liquid accumulation,a steady-state OLGA model of a DN100 gathering pipeline network is developed to examine the effects of pipe diameter,water saturation,and soil temperature.The simulations show that larger pipe diameters and higher water saturation significantly aggravate liquid holdup,while elevated soil temperature mitigates liquid accumulation.Moreover,the liquid holdup ratio is found to correlate closely with flow regime transitions,confirming its suitability as a key indicator of liquid loading risk.Based on these findings,optimization strategies for pipeline design and operation are proposed.To mitigate liquid loading,the gathering pipeline velocity should be maintained above the critical value of 1.63 m/s,and the gas water content should be strictly controlled below 2%.Under operating conditions representative of the Hancheng block,it is recommended to reduce the pipeline diameter from DN130 to DN100 to enhance self-cleaning capacity.In addition,thermal insulation should be applied during winter operation to maintain the pipe wall temperature above 10◦C,thereby suppressing condensation-induced liquid accumulation.
文摘Maintaining the structural integrity of parallel natural gas pipelines during leakage-induced jet fires remains a critical engineering challenge.Existing methods often fail to account for the complex interactions among heat transfer,material behavior,and pipeline geometry,which can lead to overly simplified and potentially unsafe assessments.To address these limitations,this study develops a multiphysics approach that integrates small-orifice leakage theory with detailed thermo-fluid-structural simulations.The proposed framework contributes to a more accurate failure analysis through three main components:(1)coupled modeling that tracks transient heat flow and stress development as fire conditions evolve;(2)risk assessment incorporating spatial layout,material property changes with temperature,and operational limits;and(3)sensitivity analysis to identify key design factors that influence structural performance under high thermal loads.Simulation results demonstrate that thermal radiation from neighboring jet fires significantly accelerates material degradation,with inter-pipeline spacing emerging as a critical determinant of structural response.Notably,increasing the spacing between pipelines reduces thermal interaction and mechanical stress transfer.As a result,systems with optimized spacing exhibit markedly lower deformation than conventional configurations.These findings provide a foundation for re-evaluating pipeline layout strategies and strengthening safety protocols,particularly in high-risk environments where fire exposure can severely compromise structural reliability.The proposed approach offers actionable guidance for engineers and policymakers seeking to enhance the resilience of pipeline infrastructure under extreme thermal conditions.
文摘Water hammer following the tripping of pumps can lead to overpressure and negative pressure. Reduction in overpressure and negative pressure may be necessary to avoid failure, to improve the efficiency of operation and to avoid fatigue of system components. The field tests on the water hammer have been conducted on the pump rising pipeline system with an air chamber. The hydraulic transient was simulated using the method of characteristics. Minimizing the least squares problem representing the difference between the measured and predicted transient response in the system performs the calibration of the simulation program. Among the input variables used in the water hammer analysis, the polytropic exponent, the discharge coefficient and the wave speed were calibrated. The computer program developed in this study will be useful in designing the optimum parameters of an air chamber for the real pump pipeline system. The correct selection of air chamber size and the effect of the inner diameter of the orifice to minimize water hammer have been investigated by both field measurements and numerical modeling.
