Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pipeline inspection, specifically a safety assessment system and method for high-temperature and high-pressure pipelines. Background Technology
[0002] The main process temperatures in typical oil refining processes in petrochemical enterprises range from 200-550℃, with some processes in catalytic cracking and coking reaching 700-800℃. Pressure pipelines operating under these high-temperature environments for extended periods are prone to creep damage. If pipelines exhibit defects exceeding safety limits, the propagation of creep cracks can easily lead to leaks and explosions. Therefore, conducting safety assessments of in-service high-temperature pressure pipelines is of paramount importance.
[0003] Based on JB / T 12746-2015 "Safety Assessment Method for Defective High-Temperature Pressure Pipelines and Valves" and GB / T19624-2019 "Safety Assessment of In-Service Defective Pressure Vessels," safety assessments can be conducted on in-service high-temperature pressure pipelines with defects. However, most inspectors conservatively adopt repair or replacement strategies for defects exceeding standards, rarely conducting safety assessments. This is mainly because the safety assessment of defective high-temperature pressure pipelines in JB / T 12746 is theoretically demanding, complex in process, and requires high comprehensive capabilities from assessors, thus limiting its widespread application in special inspection agencies. As time progresses, creep in high-temperature pressure pipelines becomes increasingly pronounced, and the probability of creep fracture in defective high-temperature pressure pipelines also increases. Determining whether manufacturing defects, defects, or damage generated during service threaten the operational safety of defective high-temperature pressure pipelines, and how to effectively assess their safety status, will be a key focus and challenge for future inspection work.
[0004] However, most inspectors conservatively adopt a repair or replacement strategy for defects exceeding standards in high-temperature pressure pipelines, rarely conducting safety assessments. Yet, some defects exceeding standards are permissible through safety assessments. Furthermore, the safety assessments of defective high-temperature pressure pipelines in JB / T 12746 and GB / T 19624 are theoretically rigorous, complex in process, and demand high comprehensive abilities from assessors, making it difficult to widely implement safety assessments of defective high-temperature pressure pipelines in special inspection agencies.

[0036] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
[0037] See Figures 1-10 The safety assessment system for high-temperature pressure pipelines of the present invention includes a stress detection device 1, a walking device for driving the stress detection device 1 to crawl on the high-temperature pressure pipeline, a control and processing device, and a risk assessment system.
[0038] See Figures 1-10 The stress detection device 1 includes a stress detector 106 and a stress attitude adjustment mechanism for adjusting the detection position of the stress detector 106 to realize the axial and circumferential stress detection of the high-temperature pressure pipeline.
[0039] See Figures 1-10 The walking device includes a crawling mechanism, which includes a support 6, a first clamping mechanism 11 and a second clamping mechanism 10 mounted on the support 6, and a linear drive mechanism for driving the first clamping mechanism 11 to move along the axial direction of the high-temperature pressure pipeline. Both the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 are used to clamp and release the high-temperature pressure pipeline. The stress detection device 1 and the first clamping mechanism 11 are fixedly connected by a connecting seat.
[0040] The crawling mechanism crawls in the following manner:
[0041] The second clamping mechanism 10 grips the high-temperature pressure pipe, then the first clamping mechanism 11 releases the high-temperature pressure pipe, and then the linear drive mechanism drives the first clamping mechanism 11 to move forward; subsequently, the first clamping mechanism 11 grips the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the linear drive mechanism resets, causing the bracket 6 and the second clamping mechanism 10 mounted on the bracket 6 to move forward, thereby enabling the crawling mechanism to crawl on the high-temperature pressure pipe.
[0042] See Figures 1-10 The crawling mechanism consists of two sets: a first crawling mechanism 2 and a second crawling mechanism 5. The linear drive mechanism of the first crawling mechanism 2 drives the first clamping mechanism 11 and simultaneously drives the stress detection device 1. A rotary drive mechanism 4 is provided between the second crawling mechanism 5 and the first crawling mechanism 2 to drive either the second crawling mechanism 5 or the first crawling mechanism 2 and the stress detection device 1 to rotate around the axis of the high-temperature pressure pipe. When the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the... When the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 release the high-temperature pressure pipe, the rotary drive mechanism 4 drives the second crawling mechanism 5 to rotate around the axis of the high-temperature pressure pipe; when the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 release the high-temperature pressure pipe, the rotary drive mechanism 4 drives the first crawling mechanism 2 and the stress detection device 1 to rotate around the axis of the high-temperature pressure pipe.
[0043] The rotary drive mechanism 4 includes a support frame mounted on the connecting seat of the second crawling mechanism 5 and a rotary motor 401 mounted on the support frame. A rotary gear 402 is mounted on the main shaft of the rotary motor 401. An arc-shaped guide block 403 is mounted on the support 6 of the first crawling mechanism 2. An arc-shaped rack, meshing with the rotary gear 402, is located at the center of the arc-shaped guide block 403, extending along the length of the arc-shaped guide block 403. An arc-shaped guide sleeve 404 is mounted on the support frame, with the arc of the sleeve matching the arc of the guide block 403. The arc-shaped guide sleeve 404 and the arc-shaped guide block 403 are movable along the extension direction of either the sleeve or the block.
[0044] The purpose of the above settings is:
[0045] (1) When stress detection is required on the circumferential surface of the high-temperature pressure pipeline, the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipeline, and then the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 release the high-temperature pressure pipeline. Subsequently, the rotary motor 401 drives the rotary gear 402 to rotate, thereby driving the arc-shaped guide block 403 to move along the arc of the arc-shaped guide sleeve 404 within the arc-shaped guide sleeve 404, so that the first clamping mechanism 11 and the stress detection device 1 connected thereto rotate around the axis of the high-temperature pressure pipeline, for example, from the upper side to the lower side of the high-temperature pressure pipeline; so that the stress detection device 1 can realize circumferential stress detection of the high-temperature pressure pipeline.
[0046] (2) Since "when the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 release the high-temperature pressure pipe, the rotary drive mechanism 4 is used to drive the second crawling mechanism 5 to rotate around the axis of the high-temperature pressure pipe; when the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 release the high-temperature pressure pipe, the rotary drive mechanism 4 is used to drive the first crawling mechanism 2 and the stress detection device 1 to rotate around the axis of the high-temperature pressure pipe.", the first crawling mechanism 2 and the second crawling mechanism 5 can also be rotated independently in the above manner to avoid obstacles.
[0047] See Figures 1-10 A swing drive mechanism 3 is further provided between the rotary drive mechanism 4 and the first crawling mechanism 2 to drive the first crawling mechanism 2 and the stress detection device 1, or the second crawling mechanism 5 and the rotary drive mechanism 4, to swing. Specifically, when the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 release the high-temperature pressure pipe, the swing drive mechanism 3 drives the second crawling mechanism 5 and the rotary drive mechanism 4 to swing; when the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 release the high-temperature pressure pipe, the swing drive mechanism 3 drives the first crawling mechanism 2 and the stress detection device 1 to swing.
[0048] The swing drive mechanism 3 includes a swing seat and a swing motor 301 mounted on the swing seat. The arc-shaped guide block 403 is mounted on the swing seat and extends out of the swing seat. The main shaft of the swing motor 301 is connected to a rotating seat 302 mounted on a bracket 6 in the first crawling mechanism 2, and is used to drive the bracket 6 in the first crawling mechanism 2 to rotate.
[0049] The purpose of the above settings is to;
[0050] By setting the swing drive mechanism 3, the first crawling mechanism 2 and the stress detection device 1 swing, or the second crawling mechanism 5 and the rotation drive mechanism 4 swing. When the crawling device moves to a non-horizontal section in the high-temperature pressure pipe, such as a 90-degree vertical section, the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 can grip the high-temperature pressure pipe. Then, the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 release the high-temperature pressure pipe. Then, the swing motor 301 drives the bracket 6 in the first crawling mechanism 2 to rotate, thereby driving the first crawling mechanism 2 and the stress detection device 1 to swing, so that the first crawling mechanism 2 and the second crawling mechanism 5 form a 90-degree angle. Then, the second crawling mechanism 5 in the crawling device drives the whole to move forward, so that the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 grip the vertical section of the high-temperature pressure pipe again. Next, the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 release the high-temperature pressure pipe. The first crawling mechanism 2 in the crawling device drives the entire crawling device of the present invention to move. After rising to a sufficient height, the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe again. The swing motor 301 rotates, thereby causing the second crawling mechanism 5 to change from a horizontal state to a vertical state. The first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the second crawling mechanism 5 clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe again. Finally, the first crawling mechanism 2 and the second crawling mechanism 5 crawl again, thereby realizing the crawling device climbing from the horizontal section to the vertical section of the high-temperature pressure pipe, thus adapting to pipes at different angles. At the same time, in conjunction with the rotary drive mechanism 4, stress detection can be performed on different positions of pipes at different angles.
[0051] See Figures 1-10The swing drive mechanism 3 further includes a third clamping mechanism 12 disposed on the swing seat for clamping the high-temperature pressure pipe; when the swing drive mechanism 3 is working, the third clamping mechanism 12 clamps the high-temperature pressure pipe. With the above configuration, even if the first clamping mechanism 11 and the second clamping mechanism 10 in the first crawling mechanism 2 or the second crawling mechanism 5 do not tightly grip the high-temperature pressure pipe, the swing drive mechanism 3 can still drive the second crawling mechanism 5 or the first crawling mechanism 2 to swing. Furthermore, by providing the third clamping mechanism 12, the supporting force or clamping force can also be enhanced.
[0052] See Figures 1-10 The stress posture adjustment mechanism includes a detection seat 101, an arc-shaped guide rail 103 mounted on the detection seat 101, and a rotation drive mechanism for driving the arc-shaped guide rail 103 to rotate. The rotation drive mechanism includes a rotation motor 102 mounted on the detection seat 101, with its main shaft connected to the arc-shaped guide rail 103. A rack is provided on the upper side of the arc-shaped guide rail 103, extending along its extension direction. The stress detector 106 is mounted on an arc-shaped slider, which is installed within the arc-shaped guide rail 103. A traveling mechanism is provided on the arc-shaped slider for driving its movement within the arc-shaped guide rail 103. The traveling mechanism includes a traveling motor 105 mounted on the arc-shaped slider and a traveling gear 104 mounted on the main shaft of the traveling motor 105, wherein the traveling gear 104 meshes with the rack. Through the cooperation of the self-rotation drive mechanism and the walking mechanism, the pressure detector is driven to perform stress detection at various positions within the rotation range of the arc-shaped guide rail 103. Furthermore, the centers of the arc-shaped guide rail 103 and the arc-shaped slider are located on the axis of the high-temperature pressure pipeline, and both are concentric.
[0053] See Figures 1-10 The first clamping mechanism 11, the second clamping mechanism 10, and the third clamping mechanism 12 have the same structure, all including grippers and clamping cylinders for driving the grippers to clamp or release the high-temperature pressure pipeline; the linear drive mechanism adopts a combination of motor and lead screw transmission mechanism, and a linear guide mechanism is provided on one or both sides of the lead screw in the lead screw transmission mechanism. The linear guide mechanism adopts a combination of slide rod and slide sleeve / slide hole to linearly guide the connecting seat and ensure its motion accuracy.
[0054] See Figures 1-10 The control and processing device is used to analyze and calculate the detection data information obtained by the stress detection device 1 to obtain the stress parameters of the high-temperature pressure pipeline.
[0055] See Figures 1-10 The risk assessment system uses a risk assessment calculation model to automatically retrieve basic data from the database for analysis and processing, performs a safety assessment of the high-temperature pressure pipeline, and sends the assessment results to the user.
[0056] See Figures 1-10 The safety assessment method for high-temperature pressure pipelines of the present invention includes the following steps:
[0057] (1) The walking device drives the stress detection device 1 to move on the high-temperature pressure pipeline. The detection position and detection angle of the detection probe of the stress detector 106 are adjusted by the stress attitude adjustment mechanism, thereby detecting the axial stress and circumferential stress on the high-temperature pressure pipeline. The detected data is uploaded to the control and processing device through the data transmission module. The control and processing device analyzes and calculates the detection data to obtain the stress parameters of the high-temperature pressure pipeline. The stress parameters include the primary stress and secondary stress of the high-temperature pressure pipeline during detection. The control and processing device further uploads the stress parameters to the database of the risk assessment system.
[0058] (2) Input the basic parameters of the high-temperature pressure pipeline to be evaluated into the risk assessment system and store them in the database. The basic parameters include the service life, expected service life, load history, temperature history, etc. For specific implementation, refer to the relevant requirements in the "Mechanical Industry Standard of the People's Republic of China (JB / T 12746--2015) - Safety Assessment Method for High-Temperature Pressure Pipelines and Valves with Defects".
[0059] (3) The risk assessment system uses the established risk assessment calculation model and automatically retrieves the basic data in the database for analysis and processing to conduct a safety assessment of the high-temperature pressure pipeline and sends the assessment results to the user.
[0060] The risk assessment calculation model is constructed based on the safety assessment method in the "Mechanical Industry Standard of the People's Republic of China (JB / T12746-2015) - Safety Assessment Method for High-Temperature Pressure Pipelines and Valves with Defects". That is, the staff only needs to input the corresponding basic parameters into the computer, and the risk assessment calculation model in the computer will automatically conduct a safety assessment of the high-temperature pressure pipeline to be tested according to the safety judgment method in the "Mechanical Industry Standard of the People's Republic of China (JB / T 12746-2015) - Safety Assessment Method for High-Temperature Pressure Pipelines and Valves with Defects", thereby reducing the burden on the staff and improving efficiency. For example, in the Visual Studio platform, the Visual Studio language can be used to parametrically program the safety assessment process of defective high-temperature pressure pipelines, building an interactive, parametric analysis interface to quickly obtain the safety assessment results of defective high-temperature pressure pipelines. This allows for the determination of whether manufacturing defects, defects or damage generated during service will threaten their operational safety, achieving efficient and accurate safety assessments. This provides technical support for subsequent modification, repair, scrapping, replacement, or continued operation of high-temperature pressure pipelines, which can save costs, shorten construction periods, and reduce risks for enterprises to a certain extent, effectively ensuring the operational safety of special equipment and having significant social benefits.
[0061] Finally, the safety assessment method for high-temperature pressure pipelines of the present invention has the following characteristics: (1) Establishing a database of material mechanical properties such as creep deformation data. (2) Using finite element analysis software to obtain the stress distribution of defective pressure pipelines under high-temperature operating conditions. (3) Modularizing the safety assessment calculation process on the Visual Studio platform, users only need to input parameters, and the system automatically completes the calculation and provides the assessment results. (4) By prefabricating defective pressure pipelines, relevant tests are conducted under high-temperature operating conditions to verify the accuracy of the system stress analysis and safety assessment.

A swing drive mechanism is further provided between the rotary drive mechanism and the first crawling mechanism for driving the first crawling mechanism and the stress detection device, or the second crawling mechanism and the rotary drive mechanism, to swing. Specifically, when the first clamping mechanism and the second clamping mechanism in the first crawling mechanism clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the first clamping mechanism and the second clamping mechanism in the second crawling mechanism release the high-temperature pressure pipe, the swing drive mechanism drives the second crawling mechanism and the rotary drive mechanism to swing. Conversely, when the first clamping mechanism and the second clamping mechanism in the second crawling mechanism clamp the high-temperature pressure pipe, and the first clamping mechanism and the second clamping mechanism in the first crawling mechanism release the high-temperature pressure pipe, the swing drive mechanism drives the first crawling mechanism and the stress detection device to swing. The swing drive mechanism includes a swing base and a swing motor mounted on the swing base. The arc-shaped guide block is mounted on the swing base and extends beyond the swing base. The main shaft of the swing motor is connected to a rotating seat mounted on a bracket in the first crawling mechanism, and is used to drive the bracket in the first crawling mechanism to rotate. The swing drive mechanism further includes a third clamping mechanism disposed on the swing seat for clamping the high-temperature pressure pipe; when the swing drive mechanism is working, the third clamping mechanism clamps the high-temperature pressure pipe. The swing center of the swing drive mechanism is perpendicular to the rotation center of the rotary drive mechanism.
