[0003] Pipelines are essential industrial equipment for transporting and storing fluids, connecting metal components, and bearing the pressure of components. They are widely used in liquid and gas transmission, chemical production, food processing, and other fields, demonstrating their strong adaptability. In recent years, thin-walled pipes have been widely used in industry due to their economic advantages of light weight and low cost, as well as their excellent corrosion resistance and high strength.

[0004] However, thin-walled pipes are relatively thin, and when subjected to complex loads such as pressure, axial force, bending moment, or torque, they can experience strength or deformation failures in the pipe cross-section. For example, in nuclear island equipment, thin-walled pipes transporting high-pressure liquids or gases are subject to significant axial and hoop stresses. To ensure the safe operation of thin-walled pipes, the loads on the pipe cross-section must be properly distributed and controlled. Summary of the Invention

[0018] In the following, exemplary embodiments of the application will be described with reference to the drawings. In the description of the embodiments, not all of the features of the actual implementation are described in order to avoid obscuring the application with unnecessary detail. It should be appreciated that in the development of any such actual implementation, numerous implementation-specific decisions must be made in order to achieve the developer's specific goals, such as compliance with system- and business-related constraints, which will vary from one implementation to another. Moreover, it should be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time-consuming, but would nevertheless be a routine undertaking of design, fabrication, and manufacture for those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of this disclosure.

[0019] It is also noted that, in the interest of clarity and conciseness, in the drawings only those details of the device structure and / or processing steps are shown which are considered to be essential for the understanding of the application according to the application, while other details are omitted which are not essential for the understanding of the application.

[0020] It is noted that, unless otherwise defined, technical and scientific terms used in the present application should have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0021] In the description of the embodiments of the application, the term "a plurality of" means at least two, for example two, three, etc., unless otherwise defined specifically and explicitly.

[0022] In harsh working conditions, such as temperature changes, high-pressure corrosive environments, or high-frequency vibrations, the cross-sectional load of the thin-walled pipeline is prone to fluctuation, which increases the risk of local buckling, deformation, or cracking of the thin-walled pipeline. In the related art, the carrying capacity of the thin-walled pipeline is improved by extracting, analyzing and optimizing the cross-sectional load of the thin-walled pipeline to prevent fatigue failure and sudden damage of the thin-walled pipeline. However, the current method for extracting the load of the thin-walled pipeline mainly uses the finite element method. This method for extracting the load of the thin-walled pipeline cannot extract the load data of any cross section during actual operation, and thus cannot obtain the stress state of the cross section of the pipeline in real time, making it difficult to ensure the safe operation of the thin-walled pipeline.

[0023] To solve the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a method for determining the cross-sectional load of a thin-walled pipeline. Figure 1 is a flowchart of the method for determining the cross-sectional load of the thin-walled pipeline according to the embodiments of the present application, as Figure 1 shown, the method comprises at least the following steps S1 to S4.

[0024] S1, determine a target cross section on the thin-walled pipeline, and determine the positions of a plurality of strain measuring elements at the target cross section, and then arrange a plurality of strain measuring elements at the target cross section.

[0025] S2, determine the strain data measured by the strain measuring elements according to the plurality of strain measuring elements arranged in S1.

[0026] S3, determine the stress of the target cross section according to the strain data determined in S2.

[0027] S4, determine the cross-sectional load of the target cross section according to the stress determined in S3.

[0028] The method provided by the embodiments of the present application can obtain the strain data of the target cross section in real time by determining the target cross section on the thin-walled pipeline and then determining the positions of the strain measuring elements on the thin-walled pipeline. Then, based on the obtained strain data, the cross-sectional load of the target cross section can be determined to achieve the purpose of determining the cross-sectional load of any cross section of the thin-walled pipeline in real time. At the same time, by detecting the cross-sectional load of any cross section of the thin-walled pipeline in real time during the operation of the thin-walled pipeline, the stress abnormality caused by internal pressure, external load or temperature deformation of the pipeline can be determined based on the cross-sectional load, which achieves the purpose of evaluating the internal stress state of the thin-walled pipeline and fault warning, and helps to improve the safety of the thin-walled pipeline and ensure the safe operation of the pipeline equipment.

[0029] In some embodiments, the target section can be any section of the thin-walled pipeline for which the cross-sectional load needs to be determined. In such embodiments, when the strain measuring element is arranged at the target section, a pipe section with a predetermined width can be determined at the target section, and then the strain measuring element is arranged on the outer surface of the pipe section. It can be understood that the width of the pipe section can meet the arrangement requirement of the strain measuring element.

[0107]

[0108] It can be known from Tables 1 to 3 that, on the target section of the thin-walled pipe, by comparing the cross-sectional load determined by the method of the embodiments of the present application with the cross-sectional load determined by the finite element method, it can be known that the difference between the cross-sectional load of the target section determined by the method of the embodiments of the present application and the real result of the cross-sectional load determined by the finite element method is small, and therefore, the method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be effectively applied to the extraction of the cross-sectional load of any section of an actual thin-walled pipe.

[0109] Further, the real-time cross-section load data obtained by the method for determining the cross-section load of the target cross-section can be used to improve the design of subsequent pipelines, for example, analyzing the dynamic load distribution of the cross-section of the thin-walled pipeline caused by fluid vibration, assisting the structural optimization and resonance suppression of the thin-walled pipeline, realizing the optimization feedback of the thin-walled pipeline structure design, reducing the redundant design in the design process, and improving the overall design efficiency and safety of the thin-walled pipeline.

[0110] For the embodiments of the present application, it also needs to be explained that, in the case of no conflict, the embodiments and the features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other to obtain new embodiments.
