AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing cathode protection system is difficult to effectively discharge or absorb dynamic stray currents, resulting in serious pipeline corrosion, and the potential of each breaking point cannot be balanced and controlled, which cannot support the cathode protection of the negative potential of the long-transmission pipeline.

Method used

A stray current active absorption device is designed, including a full-bridge circuit and a bidirectional flyback circuit. By controlling the working mode of the full-bridge circuit, the stray current is reversely compensated or actively absorbed. According to the actual situation of the ground potential of the ground potential of the ground, it is determined that the current point is the inflow point or the outflow point, and different processing methods are used to correct the ground potential of the ground that is negative or positive.

Benefits of technology

It realizes effective compensation and absorption of stray currents, prevents pipeline corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement, and solves the corrosion problem caused by long-term oil and gas pipelines being disturbed by DC stray currents. At the same time, the active absorption of stray currents is achieved during the second and fourth quadrants, which charges the battery and makes full use of energy.

Abstract

The present invention discloses a stray current active absorption device, which relates to the field of pipeline cathodic protection. The stray current active absorption device includes a four-quadrant converter unit, a battery, an energy regulation unit, and a control processing unit, and has both reverse compensation and active absorption functions. The microprocessor controls the device to work in different modes by analyzing the pipe-to-ground potential at the current position and the demand for reverse compensation / active absorption. The present invention suppresses the outflow / inflow of stray current from the damaged point of the pipeline, thereby suppressing pipeline corrosion caused by positive pipe-to-ground potential or pipeline hydrogen embrittlement caused by negative pipe-to-ground potential, thereby solving the technical problem of pipeline DC stray current interference caused by rail transit.
