Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an underwater mixed transportation pipeline damage simulation experiment device and a simulation experiment method, belonging to the technical field of submarine pipelines. Background Art

[0002] As the fastest, safest, most economical and reliable way of offshore transportation, submarine pipelines are an important part of the offshore oil and gas field development and production system. The interior of the submarine pipeline is in a state of high temperature and high pressure, and the exterior is subjected to the combined effects of multiple loads and is also affected by accidental factors. At the same time, it faces a huge risk of man-made damage, so the probability of damage to the submarine pipeline increases significantly. If the submarine pipeline is damaged, it may cause serious damage to the pipeline structure, and even serious consequences such as pipeline leakage and rupture may occur, causing a large amount of oil and gas leakage, which may further develop into fire and explosion.

[0003] To study the serious consequences of submarine pipeline damage, relevant theoretical method analysis and simulation analysis have been carried out at home and abroad, but there is still a lack of relevant experimental proof and data support. The experimental devices for submarine pipeline damage are mostly focused on studying the consequences of a single risk such as pipeline leakage, and the devices are relatively simple. Leakage holes are set up in the submarine pipeline at the beginning of the design, and pipeline leakage is achieved through manual switches. The pressure and flow in the pipeline cannot be adjusted, and there are large errors. In particular, there is a lack of experiments on the consequences of damage after small hole leakage in the submarine pipeline, and it is impossible to realize the real-time opening and closing of the submarine pipeline.
