Problems solved by technology

But in fact, the propagation characteristics of pressure waves in oil and gas pipelines, especially the research on key parameters such as propagation velocity and attenuation coefficient are not very mature, and the reflection characteristics of pressure waves when encountering different types and shapes of blockages also need to be studied urgently However, direct experimental research on actual oil and gas pipelines has problems such as affecting oil and gas production, high cost, and difficulty in implementation. In addition, the pressure wave blockage detection experiment requires a certain length and pressure of the pipeline. There are often space constraints

Embodiment 1

[0020] This embodiment provides an experimental system for pipeline blockage detection by pressure wave method, including a main pipeline 13 placed on a test bench, and the main pipeline 13 includes a plurality of straight pipes and a plurality of curved pipes. The straight pipes are detachably connected by elbows to form a spiral structure; the lengths and curvature radii of the multiple elbows are the same, and they are connected with the straight pipes through the threaded plane sealing quick joint, which is convenient for replacement. The radius of curvature can ensure that the propagation shape of the pressure wave does not change significantly; the material of the main pipeline 13 is 316L stainless steel. The main pipeline 13 is provided with a simulated blocking pipe section 14, and pipelines with different lengths, inner diameters, shapes and materials can be set to replace part of the main pipeline as the simulated blocking pipe section 14 as required. The distance be...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pipeline blockage detection experiments, in particular to an experimental system for pipeline blockage detection by a pressure wave method. Background technique [0002] With the gradual depletion of global fossil energy and the deepening of the development and utilization of oil and gas resources, the development of oil and gas resources by human beings has gradually shifted from land to ocean. Therefore, as the most important way of oil and gas transportation, the mileage of submarine pipelines is also increasing. In the development of oil and gas, the operation of submarine pipelines is directly related to the safety of offshore oil and gas fields. During the operation of pipelines, the pipeline may be blocked due to the accumulation of solids such as paraffin and asphalt, and the formation of natural gas hydrate solids. [0003] When a pipeline blockage occurs, it is an increasingly urgent need to qui...
