AI Technical Summary
Large pressure vessels are difficult to fill and drain during water pressure tests, and the overall weight after filling may exceed the base's bearing capacity, making it difficult to achieve water pressure tests.
The hydraulic pressure test structure is adopted in a sectional pressure vessel, and the hydraulic test is divided into multiple steps. The hydraulic test is gradually carried out through the sectional shell, the pressure test head and the annular half-pipe pressure test tooling, and the hydraulic test is carried out at the closing weld.
The hydraulic pressure test is carried out on all parts of large pressure vessels with excessive length, avoiding welding defects caused by closing welding and hydraulic pressure testing, and ensuring the safety and effectiveness of hydraulic pressure tests.

[0018] The present application provides a segmented pressure vessel pressure testing structure, which is suitable for performing segmented water pressure testing on large pressure vessels without causing difficulties in filling and draining water or damaging the base due to excessive water pressure.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, a segmented pressure vessel pressure test structure is provided, comprising: a plurality of segmented shells 1, at least two pressure test heads 2 and at least one annular half-tube pressure test fixture 3; wherein a pressure test margin 11 is reserved at the end of each segmented shell 1, and a half-tube pre-weld 12 is provided at a position close to the end of each segmented shell 1, and the annular half-tube pressure test fixture 3 is configured to be welded to the corresponding half-tube pre-weld 12 of two adjacent segmented shells 1; the length of the pressure test margin 11 and the position of the half-tube pre-weld 12 can be reasonably set according to the segmented position and the closed position of the shell during the preparation of the segmented shell 1. Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The steps of performing a water pressure test using the segmented pressure vessel pressure test structure provided by the present application are as follows: Figure 1 As shown, after the segmented shell 1 is prepared and inspected, the pressure test head 2 is welded to the end of each segmented shell 1, and a water pressure test is performed on each segmented shell 1; after the water pressure test of each segmented shell 1 is completed, the pressure test head 2 and the pressure test margin 11 are cut off, and after all are completed, multiple segmented shells 1 are closed and welded together for the subsequent closing weld water pressure test step; further reference is made to Figure 2 After the closing and welding of multiple segmented shells 1 is completed, the annular half-pipe pressure test fixture 3 is welded to the corresponding half-pipe pre-welds 12 of two adjacent segmented shells 1, and the closed weld between the two adjacent segmented shells 1 is subjected to a water pressure test using the annular space formed between the annular half-pipe pressure test fixture 3 and the two adjacent segmented shells 1; after the water pressure test of the closed weld is completed, the annular half-pipe pressure test fixture 3 and the half-pipe pre-weld 12 are cut off and the cut marks are removed by grinding. The provision of the half-pipe pre-weld 12 avoids possible damage to the inner wall of the segmented shell 1 during the removal of the annular half-pipe pressure test fixture 3, and can improve the stability of the formed annular space, which is conducive to the safe implementation of the water pressure test; according to the above steps, a water pressure test is performed on the closed weld between every two adjacent segmented shells 1.
[0020] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, at least two pressure test heads 2 and at least one annular half-pipe pressure test fixture 3 can be prepared according to the number of segmented shells 1, so as to perform a water pressure test on each segmented shell 1 and the closing weld between every two segmented shells 1 after the segmented shells 1 are closed simultaneously or in sequence. In a specific embodiment, the number of pressure test heads 2 is twice the number of segmented shells 1, so as to perform a water pressure test on each segmented shell 1 at the same time. In an embodiment, the number of annular half-pipe pressure test fixtures 3 is one less than the number of segmented shells 1, so as to perform a water pressure test on the closing weld between every two segmented shells 1 at the same time. Preparing multiple pressure test heads 2 and multiple annular half-pipe pressure test fixtures 3 and performing a water pressure test at the same time can greatly reduce the time required to perform the test. In another specific embodiment, the segmented pressure vessel pressure test structure provided by the present application only includes two pressure test heads 2 and one annular half-pipe pressure test fixture 3, and the water pressure test is performed sequentially and singly, and such a structure and method saves preparation materials.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the pressure test margin 11 forms a groove structure after cutting off, so as to facilitate the subsequent closing welding between two adjacent segmented shells 1. In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the segmented pressure vessel pressure test structure provided by the present application is suitable for performing a water pressure test on a pressure vessel with a total length greater than 30 meters, 35 meters, 40 meters or 45 meters. In a specific embodiment of the present application, the total length of the pressure vessel is greater than 35 meters.
