Problems solved by technology

However, since this local heating process only heats the bending part, and it is induction heated to a high temperature of 800 ° C ~ 990 ° C at one time during heating, and then sprayed with water to cool, "high temperature + rapid cooling" may cause the transition zone and the bending part Necking phenomenon, the higher the heating temperature, the faster the cooling rate, and the larger the D / t value, the more serious this phenomenon is; in addition, due to the one-time heating to a high temperature of 800 ° C to 990 ° C by using an induction coil, the performance of the bending pipe is not easy to guarantee ( Especially impact toughness), and easy to deform, large ovality, low production efficiency

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and natural gas pipelines, and relates to a two-step induction heating device and method for producing elbows for oil and gas pipelines. Background technique [0002] Elbow is an important component of oil and gas pipelines, and one of the most demanding structural parts in pipelines. The comprehensive quality of elbows is the key to restricting the safe and smooth operation of pipelines. [0003] The existing production process of pipe bends for oil and gas pipelines is as follows: after the straight pipe is cut, an induction coil is placed on the part to be bent of the steel pipe through a pipe bending machine, the pipe head is clamped with a mechanical rotating arm, and a current is passed into the induction coil. , heat the steel pipe to a plastic state, push it with mechanical thrust at the back end of the steel pipe, and bend it. The tube is bent out. The induction heating elbow is composed of...
