Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of pipeline vibration analysis, and particularly to a vibration simulation experimental platform and method for a cantilevered fluid conveying pipe with an additional weight constraint. Background Art
[0002] In a complex marine environment, the cantilevered fluid conveying pipe plays a crucial role in the oil and gas transportation field by virtue of its unique structural and performance advantages, ensuring the efficient and stable transportation of deep-sea oil and gas from the extraction point to the onshore terminal. At the same time, in the fields related to sustainable development such as ocean thermal energy conversion and seawater desalination, the cantilevered fluid conveying pipe has also become an indispensable important part due to its high-efficiency conveying capacity, providing solid technical support for the comprehensive development and utilization of marine resources.
[0003] Although the cantilevered fluid conveying pipe has advantages such as flexible structure and adaptability to complex sea conditions in marine engineering fluid transportation, in actual applications, due to factors such as water pressure, ocean currents, waves, and internal fluids, the cantilevered fluid conveying pipe undergoes structural deformation and vibration. Under the combined action of many adverse factors, the operating conditions of the cantilevered fluid conveying pipe are significantly negatively affected, its service performance is greatly reduced, and its effective service life is also significantly shortened. In view of a series of problems caused by the structural vibration of the cantilevered fluid conveying pipe during operation, many scholars have devoted themselves to related research aiming to explore effective suppression means. Among many exploration directions, the method of additional weight constraint has attracted much attention, and extensive and in-depth research has been carried out in this regard by predecessors.
[0004] The dynamic characteristics of the cantilevered fluid conveying pipe itself contain many complex theoretical problems that need to be analyzed, which involve multiple aspects such as the non-linear interaction between fluid and structure, the deformation and stress distribution of the pipeline under complex marine loads, etc. When the method of additional weight is used to try to suppress its structural vibration, the dynamic complexity of the entire system increases exponentially.
