Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of non-destructive testing of aging degree and quantitative assessment of remaining life of non-metallic in-service pipelines, and specifically relates to a method and system, storage medium and equipment for assessing the remaining life of in-service pipelines. Background Technology
[0002] Polyethylene (PE) pipes are widely used in urban gas supply, but their long-term service life makes them susceptible to aging due to environmental stress, chemical corrosion, and thermo-oxidative effects, leading to degradation of mechanical properties and potential leaks. Traditional assessment methods (such as destructive testing (OIT) and elongation at break) require cutting sections of the pipe, causing operational interruptions and damaging structural integrity. Conventional non-destructive technologies (such as ultrasonic and infrared detection) lack sufficient sensitivity to identify early oxidation and microcracks within PE and struggle to quantify molecular-level changes, necessitating high-precision in-situ detection methods. Terahertz waves (0.1-10 THz) combine microwave penetration with infrared spectral sensitivity, offering a new approach for PE aging detection: their non-ionizing nature, deep penetration, and sensitive response to polar groups demonstrate potential in polymer aging detection. Current technologies have not systematically explored the response mechanism of terahertz waves to the microstructural evolution of PE materials, particularly lacking in in-situ, quantitative assessment of aging degree and embrittlement state. Therefore, developing a dedicated detection method for in-service polyethylene pipelines based on terahertz analysis, and establishing a quantitative assessment model for the remaining life of pipelines by integrating time-domain signal processing and characteristic absorption peak identification technology, has significant engineering value for improving the safety operation and maintenance level and life prediction accuracy of urban gas pipelines.

Based on the terahertz time-domain spectral test data of high-risk sections of non-metallic in-service pipelines, establish correlation models between the intensity of characteristic peaks in the terahertz time-domain spectrum and the carbonyl index, correlation models between the carbonyl index and the yield strength, and correlation models between the yield strength and the remaining life, and complete the assessment of the remaining life of non-metallic in-service pipelines.
[0024] In some embodiments of the present invention, in step S1, the non-metallic sample tube is a new non-metallic tube, that is, a new tube made of the same material as the non-metallic in-service pipeline of the evaluation object.
[0025] In some embodiments of the present invention, in step S1, the parameters in the accelerated aging test under different parameters include the temperature and time of the accelerated thermo-oxidative aging test. In accelerated aging tests under different parameters, the controlled variable method was used to control the temperature and time variables of the thermo-oxidative aging accelerated test to obtain polyethylene sample tubes with different aging degrees, thereby providing sufficient experimental data for subsequent correlation model parameter fitting. For example, set 3 to 4 test temperatures within the temperature range of 60℃ to 120℃, and set 4 to 6 test holding times within the time range of 0 to 2000h, for a total of 12 to 24 experimental groups, and set up a control group at the same time.
[0026] In some embodiments of the present invention, in step S1, when performing terahertz time-domain spectroscopy on the non-metallic sample tube after the accelerated aging test, the aged sample tube needs to be removed from the oven and placed in the test environment for 2 to 8 hours, and the test surface should be cleaned with reagents such as isopropanol to avoid interference from oxidized dust. The terahertz detection parameters were set as follows: scanning time window ≥ 80 ps, spectral range between 0.4 and 2.6 THz, so as to obtain high-quality terahertz time-domain signals.
[0027] In some embodiments of the present invention, step S1 includes: S1-1. Based on the terahertz time-domain spectral test data of the non-metallic sample tube after accelerated aging test under different parameters, calculate the terahertz characteristic peak intensity data of the non-metallic sample tube after accelerated aging test under different parameters. S1-2. Based on the Fourier transform infrared spectral test data of the non-metallic sample tubes after accelerated aging tests under different parameters, the carbonyl index data of the non-metallic sample tubes after accelerated aging tests under different parameters are calculated. S1-3. Based on the terahertz characteristic peak intensity data and carbonyl index data of non-metallic sample tubes after accelerated aging tests under different parameters, a correlation model between the terahertz time-domain spectral characteristic peak intensity and the carbonyl index is fitted.
[0028] In some embodiments of the present invention, prior to step S1-1, a data reliability verification is further included, wherein the data reliability verification includes: i. Calculate the reliability correlation coefficient based on the terahertz time-domain spectral test data of the non-metallic sample tubes after accelerated aging test; ii. Based on the magnitude of the reliability correlation coefficient, determine whether the terahertz time-domain spectral test data is reliable. Specifically, if the reliability correlation coefficient is greater than or equal to the preset value, the terahertz time-domain spectral test data passes the reliability verification, and the calculation of step S1-1 is performed; if the reliability correlation coefficient is less than the preset value, the terahertz time-domain spectral test data fails the reliability verification, and it is necessary to rescan or readjust the terahertz detection parameters and re-detect until the terahertz time-domain spectral test data passes the reliability verification.
[0029] In some embodiments of the present invention, the reliability correlation coefficient is calculated using the following formula (1): (1) In equation (1), The correlation coefficient, The first scan time domain signal is the first... i The electric field intensity value at each time point The second scan time domain signal i The electric field intensity value at each time point This is the average value of the first scan signal. This is the average value of the second scan signal.
[0030] In some embodiments of the present invention, the intensity of the terahertz characteristic peak The calculation formulas are shown in equations (2)-(4): (2) (3) (4) In equations (2)-(4), and These represent the time-domain and frequency-domain signal strengths of the terahertz signal, respectively. and These represent the frequency domain intensity signals of the sample and the reference (air), respectively. For frequency The absorption coefficient at that location, For sample thickness, , The start and end frequencies of the characteristic peak.
[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, the carbonyl index The calculation formula is shown in equation (5): (5) In equation (5), The area of the carbonyl peak. This represents the area of the methylene peak (internal standard peak).
[0032] In some embodiments of the present invention, in steps S1-3, a correlation model between the intensity of the terahertz time-domain spectral characteristic peak and the carbonyl index is established through data fitting. The correlation model between the intensity of the terahertz time-domain spectral characteristic peak and the carbonyl index is shown in equation (6): (6) In equation (6), , These are the parameters for the associated model.
[0033] In some embodiments of the present invention, step S2 includes: S2-1. Based on the tensile property test data of non-metallic tubes after accelerated aging tests under different parameters, calculate the yield strength data of non-metallic tubes after accelerated aging tests under different parameters. S2-2. Based on the Fourier transform infrared spectral test data of the non-metallic sample tube after accelerated aging test under different parameters, the carbonyl index data of the non-metallic sample tube after accelerated aging test under different parameters is calculated. It can be seen that step S1-2 and step S2-2 are the same. The carbonyl index data of the non-metallic sample tube only needs to be obtained once. That is, the carbonyl index data of the non-metallic sample tube has been calculated in step S1-2, so step S2-2 can be omitted. S2-3. Based on the yield strength data and carbonyl index data of non-metallic sample tubes after accelerated aging tests under different parameters, a correlation model between carbonyl index and yield strength is simulated.
[0034] In some embodiments of the present invention, in steps S2-3, a correlation model between the carbonyl index and the yield strength is established through data fitting, and the correlation model between the carbonyl index and the yield strength is shown in equation (7): (7) In equation (7), σ y For yield strength, For initial strength, This represents the aging sensitivity coefficient.
[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, step S3 includes: S3-1. The tensile property test data of the non-metallic sample tube after accelerated aging test under different parameters is used as the yield strength data of the non-metallic sample tube after accelerated aging test under different parameters. It can be seen that step S3-1 is the same as step S2-1. The tensile property test data of the non-metallic sample tube only needs to be obtained once. That is, the tensile property test data of the non-metallic sample tube has been calculated in step S2-1, so step S3-1 can be omitted. S3-2. Based on the standard power law formula and the actual operating temperature and pressure of in-service pipelines, a correlation model between the yield strength and remaining life of in-service polyethylene pipelines is established.
[0036] In some embodiments of the present invention, the standard power law formula is shown in equation (8): (8) In equation (8), The circumferential stress borne by the pipe material. t For stress Time required for destruction under the influence of the action a is a material constant, and b is the stress exponent.
[0037] Assuming the long-term strength behavior of the polyethylene pipeline (i.e., the circumferential stress of the pipeline under operating conditions) σ op and short-term strength behavior (i.e., yield strength obtained from tensile properties) and short-term strength behavior. σ y Both follow the classical power-law equation, assuming that long-term strength and short-term strength lie on the same stress-life curve. The short-term point ( t y , σ y ) and long-term point ( t op , σ op Substituting all of them into the power law formula (8), we can obtain equations (9) and (10): (9) (10) Dividing formula (9) by formula (10) yields: (11) Taking the natural logarithm of both sides and simplifying, we get formula (12): (12) Since the time required for material failure during short-term strength testing is much shorter than that required for material failure during long-term strength testing, formula (12) can be further simplified to obtain: (13) In equation (13), A and B are both material constants, which are constants determined by the material properties.
[0038] Based on formula (13), the influence of pipeline operating temperature on its lifespan is further considered, and the Arrhenius equation is used to modify the pipeline lifespan. The modified formula is shown in formula (14): (14) In equation (14), t OP This is the equivalent time (i.e., equivalent life) for pipeline failure when converted to the actual operating temperature of the pipeline. t res Let R be the remaining life of the pipeline, and R be a material constant.

S4-2. Input the intensity of the terahertz time-domain spectral characteristic peak of the non-metallic in-service pipeline into the correlation model between the intensity of the terahertz time-domain spectral characteristic peak and the carbonyl index to obtain the carbonyl index of the non-metallic in-service pipeline. S4-3.
