Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pipeline detection equipment, and in particular to a pipeline expansion detection device. Background Art

[0002] Pipelines are commonly used in the industrial field to transport various fluids, such as oil, steam, water and gas in the power field. Since the high-temperature and high-pressure flowing medium in the pipeline will transfer its own heat to the pipeline, causing it to expand due to heat, it is necessary to monitor the expansion of the pipeline. Traditional monitoring methods usually use expansion indicators, especially in power plants, where expansion indicators are used to monitor the expansion of the pressure vessel and pipeline on the rear wall of the boiler during ignition and pressure increase. Through the expansion indicator, deformation of the evaporation equipment caused by improper ignition and pressure increase or poor installation and maintenance can be discovered in time, thereby preventing cracks and leaks caused by uneven expansion.

[0003] However, with the development of industrial technology and the improvement of safety requirements, traditional expansion indicators and their monitoring methods can no longer meet the requirements of modern industry for the accuracy and efficiency of pipeline expansion monitoring.

[0004] Traditional expansion indicators usually adopt mechanical structures, and their pointers are prone to jamming and deformation, which affects the accuracy of measurement. Existing solutions usually require manual inspection and data recording, which is labor-intensive and error-prone. The values ​​of pipeline expansion and contraction need to be judged manually based on experience, which increases the subjectivity and uncertainty of judgment. Maintenance is inconvenient. Traditional expansion indicators are scattered, and it is necessary to find the measurement point location of the corresponding pipeline when recording, which increases the difficulty and cost of maintenance.
