During pipeline transportation, CO2 is easily affected by the ground temperature at the depth of the pipeline and the pressure and temperature changes along the pipeline, causing phase changes, which affects the transportation efficiency and cost. 2 In general liquid transportation, due to the influence of temperature changes and pressure drops along the pipeline, the working fluid is unstable, which can easily lead to gaseous CO 2 The formation of gas-liquid two-phase flow causes unstable working conditions and great difficulties in transportation. 2 Due to the high critical point, improper control of the transportation process can easily lead to phase change, which will affect the safe and stable operation of the pipeline. 2 During the commissioning process of the transmission pipeline, if the pressure difference is too large during pressure increase, problems such as pipeline vibration, air blockage, excessive temperature drop to produce dry ice, and additional pipe damage may occur.

The pressure control system includes a booster pump 3, an autoclave 5 and a connecting pipeline. The high-pressure gas cylinder is connected to the booster pump 3 by a high-pressure hose. A flow meter 4 can be set on the pipeline between the booster pump 3 and the autoclave 5 to monitor and control the CO entering the autoclave 5 and the entire main pipeline. 2 Flow rate. Two branches are arranged in parallel downstream of the autoclave 5, and the phase change controller 13 and the high-pressure loop system 10 are respectively arranged in one of the branches. A flow meter and a corresponding control valve can be provided in each branch, or when the flow meter 4 is provided on the main line, a flow meter (such as flow meter 8) can be provided only in one of the branches (such as the branch where the high-pressure loop system 10 is located).

[0057] Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a phase change controller according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2The structure of the phase change controller 13 is described in detail. The phase change controller 13 mainly includes a high-pressure container 13a and a first temperature control mechanism 13b. The pressure that the high-pressure container can withstand is greater than 15MPa. The high-pressure container 13a is a hollow tubular structure, and a space for accommodating carbon dioxide is formed inside it. The first temperature control mechanism 13b includes an outer shell that forms a control room for accommodating the high-pressure container 13a, a resistance heating component adjacent to the high-pressure container, and a refrigerant pipeline for introducing a refrigerant into the control room. The refrigerant can specifically be liquid nitrogen. The resistance heating component can include a plurality of resistance heating elements uniformly distributed around the circumference of the high-pressure container. The first temperature control mechanism 13b is used to control and adjust the temperature inside the high-pressure container 13a. A transparent window can also be provided on the high-pressure container 13a to facilitate observation of the CO in the high-pressure container 13a. 2 phase state.

[0058] A plurality of detected positions can be selected according to the size of the high-pressure container 13a, and the distance between adjacent detected positions can be controlled within 0.3 to 0.5 meters. Since the distances between different positions in the high-pressure container 13a and the heating component are different, there are temperature gradient changes at different positions in the high-pressure container 13a, and the temperature gradient changes are monitored by installing temperature sensors at different positions. As shown in the figure, the high-pressure container 13a has three detected positions P1, P2 and P3. Each detected position is provided with a temperature sensor ST1, and one of the detected positions is provided with a pressure sensor SP1. The data collected by the temperature sensor ST1 and the pressure sensor SP1 are sent to the data processing device 14. The operating temperature range of the phase change controller 13 is -50°C to 100°C, and the operating pressure range is 0.01MPa to 12MPa. When testing, the temperature adjustment function of the temperature control mechanism 13b is used to realize the set temperature gradient, dynamically adjust the temperature under the selected fixed pressure, observe the temperature and phase change at different positions, and collect relevant data.

[0059] Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the structure of a high pressure loop system 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2The structure of the high-pressure loop system 10 is described in detail. The high-pressure loop system 10 generally includes a high-pressure resistant pipe 9 and a second temperature control mechanism. The high-pressure resistant pipe 9 adopts a pipe with a certain length, and the pressure that the high-pressure resistant pipe 9 can withstand is greater than 15MPa. The second temperature control mechanism includes a water circulation machine 12 and a circulation jacket 11, and the circulation jacket 11 is wrapped around the outside of the high-pressure resistant pipe 9. A water circulation pipeline is provided in the circulation jacket 11, and the water circulation pipeline is connected to the water circulation machine 12. The water circulation machine 12 can adjust and control the temperature of the water in the water circulation pipeline, thereby realizing the adjustment of the temperature in the high-pressure resistant pipe 9. The operating temperature range of the high-pressure loop system 10 is 0°C to 80°C, and the working pressure range is 0.01MPa to 12MPa.

[0060] A plurality of locations to be measured are selected on the high-pressure pipe 9 to set pressure sensors 6 and temperature sensors 7 to detect the temperature, pressure and phase conditions at different locations along the axial direction of the pipe. To this end, a transparent window is set opposite each location to make the CO at the location to be measured visible. 2 The phase state of the pressure sensor 6 and the temperature sensor 7 are visualized. The number of the measured positions can be determined according to the length of the high pressure pipe 9 and the distance between adjacent measured positions is 1 to 3 meters. The data collected by the pressure sensor 6 and the temperature sensor 7 are sent to the data processing device 14.

[0061] The data processing device 14 generates a phase change pressure response model at each position at different temperatures based on the data of the temperature sensor ST1 and the pressure sensor SP1, and generates a phase change temperature response model at each position at different pressures based on the data of the temperature sensor 7 and the pressure sensor 6.

[0062] The present invention also provides a method for utilizing the above system to control the CO 2 A method for dynamically monitoring phase transformation, the method comprising the following steps:

[0063] Step S1, introducing CO into the high pressure loop system 2 , monitor the pressure at each measured position and achieve the predetermined pressure gradient of the entire pipeline by setting the pressure;

[0064] Step S2, using the high pressure loop system to perform pressure response tests at multiple different temperatures, at each test temperature, the CO in the high pressure loop system is 2 Dynamically adjust the pressure and monitor the pressure at each measured position;

[0065] Step S3, sorting out the phase change pressure response data at different temperatures in step S2 to obtain a pressure response model at each measured position;

[0066] Step S4: introducing CO into the phase change controller 2, adjust the temperature of the phase change controller, monitor the temperature of each measured position, and realize a predetermined temperature gradient distribution in the container;

[0067] Step S5, performing temperature response tests respectively using a phase change controller for a plurality of different pressures, dynamically adjusting the temperature in the phase change controller at each test pressure, and monitoring the temperature at each tested position;

[0068] Step S6, sorting out the phase change temperature response data under different pressures in step S5 to obtain a temperature response model at each measured position.

[0069] Each step is described in detail below.

[0070] In step S1, the method for achieving the pressure gradient of the entire pipeline is to utilize the pressure drop in the high-pressure loop and 2 The principle of increasing pressure drop as the injection flow rate increases is used to achieve a predetermined pressure gradient by setting the inlet pressure, inlet flow rate, and pipeline length. Since there is a pressure drop in the high-pressure loop, and the pressure drop increases with the increase of the injection flow rate, the supercritical / liquid CO in the pipeline 2 After passing through the entire pipeline and falling below the critical pressure / gas-liquid equilibrium pressure, it will expand and vaporize.

[0071] In step S2, the temperature, inlet pressure, and inlet flow of the high-pressure loop need to be coordinated and set to ensure that the gas-liquid equilibrium pressure at the set temperature is between the pipeline inlet pressure and the pipeline end pressure. In step S2, multiple test temperatures are selected, and at each test temperature, the CO in the high-pressure loop system is adjusted by changing the inlet pressure and inlet flow of the high-pressure loop. 2 The pressure is dynamically adjusted, and the pressure and phase state of each measured position are monitored. When setting the high-pressure loop temperature, inlet pressure, and inlet flow, it is necessary to ensure that the pipeline can be in supercritical state, supercritical state to gas state, and gas state from beginning to end, or liquid state, liquid state to gas state, and gas state. It is necessary to ensure that the gas-liquid equilibrium pressure at the set temperature is between the pipeline inlet pressure and the pipeline end pressure. Such dynamic pressure adjustment is performed for each test temperature, and the temperature and pressure information of each position is collected. After processing these data, the pressure response model at each position can be obtained.

[0072] In step S3, the phase change pressure response data at different temperatures in step S2 are sorted to obtain the pressure response model at each measured position. The sensor output data includes the corresponding pressure or temperature, time and other information. The position information of the sensor in the pipeline can be determined according to the sensor number. The CO at the measured position is fitted using the state equation based on the pressure information measured by the pressure sensor at each measured position and the temperature information measured by the temperature sensor. 2The density of CO is plotted in a three-dimensional graph combined with position and time to represent the pressure response model of phase change. Based on this graph, it is possible to clearly and intuitively judge the 2 The phase state at different positions and times in the pipeline, and the influence of pressure gradient on the phase state.

[0073] In step S4, the method for achieving the predetermined temperature gradient distribution in the container is to obtain the predetermined temperature gradient distribution by changing the temperature of the temperature control mechanism outside the container and controlling the size of the container. The temperature gradient exists due to the different distances between different positions and the temperature control mechanism.

[0074] In step S5, the temperature response test is performed for a plurality of different pressures using the phase change controller. At each test pressure, the temperature in the phase change controller is dynamically adjusted, and the temperature and phase state of each tested position are monitored. In other words, a plurality of different pressures can be selected for temperature response tests, and the pressure is fixed and maintained during each test. Since the temperature of the tested point in the phase change controller is adjustable, the corresponding gas-liquid equilibrium temperature is used as the test starting temperature, and the temperature in the phase change controller is gradually reduced to observe the liquid CO 2 Compress and liquefy and collect pressure and temperature data, or gradually increase the temperature in the phase change controller with the corresponding gas-liquid equilibrium temperature as the lowest temperature to observe the liquid CO 2 The expansion and gasification situation is recorded and the pressure and temperature data are collected. After that, the set pressure is changed, the temperature is dynamically adjusted again and the relevant data is collected. By sorting and processing the data, the phase change situation along the temperature gradient can be obtained, and the phase change model can be obtained. Similar to step S3, the sensor output data includes the corresponding pressure or temperature, time and other information. The position information of the sensor in the pipeline can be determined according to the sensor number. Based on the pressure information measured by the pressure sensor and the temperature information measured by each temperature sensor, the state equation is used to fit the CO at the measured position. 2 The density of CO is plotted in a three-dimensional graph combined with position and time to represent the temperature response model of phase change. Based on this graph, it is clear and intuitive to judge the 2 The phase state at different positions and times in the pipeline, and the influence of temperature gradient on the phase state.

[0075] The system and method of the present invention are not only applicable to pure CO 2 Dynamic monitoring of the phase transformation of impurity gases can also be performed on CO 2 Dynamic monitoring of the phase transformation of impurity-containing gas 2 When dynamically monitoring the phase transformation of CO, it is only necessary to control the gas components provided to the pressure control system to contain a predetermined amount of impurities. 2 The transitions between different phases are observed very comprehensively.
