Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of gas pipeline monitoring technology, specifically to a gas pipeline leak location method based on time and risk dimensions. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of urban construction, various underground infrastructures are increasing, and the phenomenon of proximity and intersection with gas pipeline facilities is very common. When a buried gas pipeline leaks, it can easily spread through the soil to nearby underground spaces, thereby inducing a gas explosion accident. Therefore, for gas pipeline leak accidents, on the one hand, it is necessary to manage the pipeline hazards to eliminate or reduce the gas pipeline hazards in essence; on the other hand, it is necessary to quickly trace the leak point after the gas monitoring equipment alarms to suppress the occurrence and development of the accident.

[0003] Currently, research on gas leak prediction and tracing in the field of gas monitoring systems is limited. Most studies focus on gas diffusion in soil, and tracing techniques are confined to individual manholes. However, urban underground spaces are highly complex, with interconnected pipelines making up a significant proportion. Therefore, research on the diffusion and tracing of interconnected pipelines can provide assurance for gas safety monitoring and emergency response. For example, a gas leak tracing method and device disclosed in patent number 201810482649.x involves predicting the target gas pipeline in the gas network based on the gas diffusion characteristics in adjacent underground spaces, the monitored gas concentration values ​​in adjacent underground spaces, and the location information of the adjacent underground spaces, if a gas leak is detected in the gas pipeline network. This invention patent provides a method and device that can predict the target gas pipeline with a gas leak simply by detecting the gas concentration values ​​in adjacent underground spaces, resulting in high efficiency in gas leak tracing.

[0004] However, in real-world scenarios, gas pipelines often intersect with other adjacent pipelines. Existing technologies cannot quickly trace leaking pipelines after alarms are triggered by monitoring equipment in adjacent underground spaces, nor can they determine the priority gas pipelines for emergency repairs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gas pipeline leak location method based on time and risk dimensions, solving the following technical problems: To address the issues of the inability to quickly trace leaking pipelines after alarms from monitoring equipment in adjacent underground spaces and the inability to prioritize gas pipelines for emergency repairs, this invention provides technical guidance for emergency rescue by rapidly tracing gas pipeline leaks and prioritizing gas pipeline repairs based on time and pipeline leakage risk dimensions.

[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A gas pipeline leak location method based on time and risk dimensions includes the following steps: S101. Based on alarm location, determine the gas pipeline within the traceability range as the initial traceability target; S102. Obtain the maximum leakage ingress concentration for each gas pipeline and alarm pipeline, and screen the source tracing objects based on the leakage ingress concentration; S103. Obtain the time t for the gas to diffuse from the leak point through the soil to the connecting pipeline. earth ; S104. Obtain the gas diffusion time t in the connecting pipeline that causes the alarm point to reach the maximum alarm concentration. pipe ; S105, Based on the time t it takes for the gas to diffuse from the leak point through the soil to the connecting pipeline. earth Gas diffusion time t in connecting pipelines pipe The shortest diffusion time t for the alarm point to reach the maximum alarm concentration is obtained. source , i.e. t source =t earth +t pipe ; S106, Based on the time t for gas to diffuse from the leak point through the soil to the connecting pipeline. earth and the gas diffusion time t in the connecting pipeline pipe Perform preliminary sorting of the traceable objects; S107. Based on the preliminary ranking results and combined with the gas pipeline leakage probability analysis and gas pipeline soil source tracing analysis, the gas pipeline source tracing priority is revised.

[0007] Preferably, in step S103, the relationship between the soil diffusion warning range and time is determined based on the hardened and unhardened road surfaces.

[0008] Preferably, in step S103: Based on the type of road surface above the gas pipeline, and combined with the distance L between the shortest distance point between the gas pipeline and the connecting pipeline... dis The time t takes for the gas to diffuse from the leak point through the soil to the connecting pipeline is calculated using a function: earth =solve(EWB) HSG ==L dis ,t) or t earth =solve(EWB) UHSG ==L dis ,t).

[0009] Preferably, in step S104, the connecting pipeline is divided into a waterless pipeline and a water-containing pipeline.

[0010] Preferably, in step S104, for waterless pipelines: When a single alarm point exists: Calculation of the change in concentration at the alarm point over time:

[0011] In the above formula: c(t) is the concentration value at alarm point t, m³ / m³; max The maximum concentration of gas leaking into the connecting pipeline, in m³ / m³; v x D is the gas diffusion velocity within the pipeline between the shortest distance point between the gas pipeline and the connecting pipeline and the alarm point, in m / s; t x is the turbulent diffusion coefficient within the pipeline between the shortest distance point of the gas pipeline and the connecting pipeline and the alarm point, in m² / s; x0 is the distance between the shortest distance point of the gas pipeline and the alarm point and the alarm point, in m; t is the diffusion time, in s; t α The unit of time is 1 second; Preferably, the diffusion time is calculated as: t pipe =solve(c(x0,t)==c0,t) Where: c0 is the maximum alarm concentration at the alarm point, m³ / m³; t pipe The gas diffusion time in the connecting pipeline is in seconds.

[0012] Preferably, when there are two or more alarm points: diffusion time t pipe :t pipe =max(t) n , t a ).

[0013] Preferably, when there are two or more gas pipeline sections t source At the same time, through the analysis of the burial depth of the gas pipeline, the deeper the gas pipeline is buried, the higher the priority of tracing its source.

[0014] Preferably, in step S107, the higher the probability of gas pipe damage and leakage and the shorter the soil diffusion time, the higher the priority of source tracing based on the results of damage and leakage probability analysis and soil source tracing analysis.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This invention traces the source of leaks based on the changing trend of concentration monitored by monitoring equipment, data from the pipeline where the monitoring equipment is located, data from adjacent gas pipelines, and soil environmental data, using VI models, gas diffusion models, etc. This invention divides the source tracing process into three stages: first, defining gas pipelines within a 12.5m range as the source tracing targets; second, narrowing down the source targets based on theoretically predicted maximum concentrations and actual monitored maximum concentrations—that is, if the theoretically predicted maximum concentration is less than the actual monitored concentration, it indicates that the gas pipeline is unlikely to leak and is not included in the source tracing scope; similarly, only those concentrations greater than or equal to the actual monitored concentration are considered; and finally, combining leakage probability with soil source tracing analysis enables rapid source tracing of gas pipelines and prioritization of source tracing, resulting in higher accuracy in locating gas leaks.

[0049] Example 2 Soil diffusion process of gas pipelines: Maximum leakage rate of gas pipeline in soil: The above-ground leakage of a gas pipeline is expressed as follows:

[0050] The leakage amount of a gas pipeline leak into the soil can be expressed as:

[0051] Where q is the gas pipeline leakage rate, m 3 / s; p is the pipeline leakage pressure, MPa; it can be obtained directly, or the maximum pressure value corresponding to the pressure rating P of the gas pipeline can be taken. β is the ratio of the leak orifice diameter to the gas pipeline diameter, i.e., the orifice-to-pipe ratio. . The equivalent diameter of the leak outlet, calculated by default as a small hole leak, is in mm; the setting can be corrected as follows: Figure 8 As shown; Specifically, based on the soil stratification above the gas pipeline, the changes in gas leakage concentration were analyzed: Single soil layer: For gas pipeline leaks, the burial depth of the gas pipeline has a certain impact on its diffusion range. Assuming the soil environment where the gas leak diffuses is uniform and homogeneous, when the pipeline is shallow (d... f When the gas pipeline surface is less than 1.5m, the covering medium will affect the horizontal diffusion distance of the gas pipeline. Therefore, the VI model can be expressed as:

[0052] Where c is the maximum volume concentration of the gas, m³ / m³; d s The burial depth of the leaking gas pipeline is in meters (m) and d is in meters (d). f Let m be the depth of the adjacent connected pipeline, where when > hour, = L0 represents the distance, in meters, between the gas pipeline and the adjacent connected pipeline in the uncovered (pure soil) medium section; in practice, for ease of application, the default value is 0; L p The distance, in meters, between a gas pipeline and an adjacent connecting pipeline covered by a medium (such as cement, asphalt, etc.). This is a correction factor for the type of covering medium on the surface of gas pipelines, reflecting the blocking effect of the soil covering medium on the diffusion of gas into the atmosphere. The closer the value is to 0, the better the covering medium is at preventing gas from diffusing into the atmosphere. This applies when the covering medium is cement, asphalt, paving bricks, grass, or green belt. Suggested values ​​are 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 1. As the burial depth of gas pipelines increases, the influence of the soil surface covering medium on the lateral diffusion of gas in the soil decreases. Therefore, when the pipeline burial depth is ( (m), the surface covering medium of gas pipelines is cement, asphalt, paving bricks, grass or green belt. Suggested values ​​are 0.3, 0.45, 0.6, and 1. When the pipeline burial depth is ( When the gas pipeline surface is covered with a medium (m), it has almost no effect on the lateral diffusion of gas leaks. All values ​​are 1; Multi-layered soil: Under multi-layered soil cover conditions, the diffusion of natural gas varies in different soil media. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the effects of different cover thicknesses and effective diffusion rates. When the gas pipeline is covered by two or three layers of soil cover, the relationship between leakage diffusion concentration and distance can be expressed as:

[0053] Where n is the total number of layers, L i and D i It is the thickness and effective diffusion coefficient of layer i, calculated from the bottom. 2 / s]. The effective diffusion coefficients of different soil media were calculated based on the Buckingham model:

According to the minimum design flow velocity specified in section 5.2.7 of the "Outdoor Drainage Design Standard," the flow velocity for sewage pipelines should be 0.6 m / s under design fullness. Therefore, it can be estimated that the minimum flow velocity affecting the diffusion of headspace gases in connected pipelines is 0.258 m / s. The maximum design flow velocity in section 5.2.5 should preferably be 5 m / s for non-metallic pipelines. Therefore, the maximum flow velocity affecting the diffusion of headspace gases in connected pipelines can be taken as 2.15 m / s.

By default, the leakage hole is calculated based on small hole leakage. When the maximum concentration of gas leaked into the alarm pipeline is less than the maximum monitoring concentration of the alarm point in the past 7 days, the probability of gas leaking into the alarm point in that pipeline section is low; when the maximum concentration of gas leaked into the alarm pipeline is greater than or equal to the maximum monitoring concentration of the alarm point in the past 7 days, the probability of gas leaking into the alarm point in that pipeline section is high, and this is the main analysis object of this model.

[0090] Example 3 For S107: Priority sorting correction: The first-priority traceable pipeline in the interconnected wells refers to the gas pipeline that ranks first in the traceability order of interconnected pipelines. First priority: Select the pipeline with the highest leakage probability score among the pipelines traced through connecting pipelines and pipelines traced through manholes as the corrected priority pipelines. When there are multiple pipelines that meet the criteria, the order is: pipelines traced through connecting pipelines first → pipelines traced through manholes first → remaining pipelines traced through manholes. Second priority: Prioritize pipelines for tracing the source of leakage in connected wells. For pipelines with a leakage probability score of <4 in the pipelines for tracing the source of leakage in independent wells, sort them in the order of priority pipelines for tracing the source of leakage in connected wells → key pipelines for tracing the source of leakage in independent wells → pipelines for tracing the source of leakage in independent wells. Third priority: After the above sorting, for the remaining pipelines, those with a leakage probability score of ≥4 points are sorted according to the original order of the tracing results of the connecting wells. Fourth priority: The remaining pipelines are sorted according to the order of the traceability results of the connecting wells.
