Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of pipeline performance testing, and particularly relates to a test system for testing the performance of pipelines. Background Art

[0002] In engineering cases of chemical wastewater treatment systems, severe corrosion of sewage pipelines often occurs. The main reasons for corrosion are that the chemical wastewater transported by sewage pipelines, especially the water quality containing corrosive substances such as acids and alkalis, causes pipeline corrosion, and there are sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in the sludge of sewage pipelines. These bacteria use the organic matter in the sludge as a carbon source and the hydrogen generated in the bacterial biofilm to reduce sulfate to hydrogen sulfide. The hydrogen sulfide diffuses in the sewage pipeline and reacts with the oxygen in the pipeline to form sulfuric acid, which adheres to the unfilled part of the pipeline, causing corrosion of the unfilled part of the pipeline.

[0003] In the fields of metallurgy, chemical industry, and textile industry, ductile iron pipes are widely used in wastewater treatment systems. Ductile iron pipe sewage pipelines are usually coated with high-aluminum cement mortar lining, enabling the drainage pipe network to have good sewage corrosion resistance and a long service life. As an excellent drainage pipe material, ductile iron pipe sewage pipes have been widely used in the fields of sewage treatment and discharge. Compared with other pipe materials, ductile iron pipes have the advantages of good pressure-bearing performance, corrosion resistance, and sealing performance.

[0004] The problems of the prior art are that it is inconvenient to test the corrosion resistance of metal pipelines after manufacturing, and some only test the corrosion situation under a single working condition, resulting in potential pipeline corrosion hazards; there is a lack of corresponding equipment in the prior art to test the performance of metal pipelines under various working environments.

[0034] Embodiment 1

[0035] As Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, a test system for testing the performance of pipelines includes a water tank 1, which is connected with a water inlet pipe 2 and a water outlet pipe 3. A water pump 4 and a regulating valve 5 are connected to the water inlet pipe 2. The water inlet pipe 2 is connected with a water inlet plug 6 for mating with the mouth of the test pipe section 24. The middle part of the water outlet pipe 3 includes a U-shaped hose section 7. A height-adjusting bracket is arranged at the water outlet end of the U-shaped hose section 7. The water outlet pipe 3 is connected with a water outlet plug 8 for mating with the mouth of the test pipe section 24. Vent holes 9 are arranged on the upper parts of the water inlet plug 6 and the water outlet plug 8. An overflow outlet and a bottom connection port for connecting with the water outlet pipe 3 are arranged on the water outlet plug 8. The height of the overflow outlet is higher than that of the bottom connection port. The overflow outlet is connected with an overflow pipe 10, and the overflow pipe 10 is connected with the water tank 1.

[0036] In the above solution, the water tank 1 is used to store and continuously supply experimental water. The water pump 4 on the water inlet pipe 2 is used to continuously convey the water in the water tank 1 to the pipeline. The regulating valve 5 is used to adjust the water flow rate. The water inlet plug 6 is used to connect the water inlet pipe 2 with the mouth of the test pipe section 24. The U-shaped hose section 7 in the middle of the water outlet pipe 3 cooperates with the height-adjusting bracket to adjust the liquid level height in the test pipe section 24 by using the principle of communicating vessels. The water outlet pipe 3 is connected with the mouth of the test pipe section 24 through the water outlet plug 8. The vent holes 9 are arranged to ensure that the part above the liquid level in the test pipe section 24 is filled with air. The overflow outlet on the water outlet plug 8 is connected with the overflow pipe 10 to limit the highest liquid level height in the test pipe section 24, avoid the situation of too high liquid level, and ensure the smooth progress of the test.

[0037] After opening the valve of the water tank 1, the frequency-converting constant-pressure pump, the flowmeter 23 and the flow regulating valve 5 and running them, sewage is injected into the test pipeline. The fullness is adjusted through the water outlet end of the U-shaped hose section 7.

Under the action of water pump 4, inject it into the ductile iron pipe test section 24 to conduct the corrosion test. During operation, regularly monitor and adjust the pH of the solution to ensure that the change in pH (relative to the initial value) is not greater than ±0.3.

[0044] The height of the overflow pipe 10 is higher than the height of the outlet pipe 3. The inlet plug 6 and the outlet plug 8 are snap-connected to the test section 24.

[0045] Furthermore, a water distributor 11 is connected to the end of the inlet pipe 2. The water distributor 11 includes a plurality of horizontally arranged water outlet holes 12, and the water distributor 11 is connected inside the test section 24.

[0046] By setting the water distributor 11, the water flow of the inlet pipe 2 is distributed at multiple points, avoiding scouring the inner wall of the test pipe at a single point, simulating the actual working condition of the rolling pipe, and improving the test effect.

[0047] Furthermore, the height-adjusting support includes a base 13. A column 14 is arranged on the top surface of the base 13. A connecting block 15 is slidably arranged on the column 14. A locking screw 16 for cooperating with the column 14 is screwed on the connecting block 15, and a pipe clamp 17 is connected to the connecting block 15.

[0048] The column 14 is supported and positioned by the base 13. The connecting block 15 is slidably arranged on the column 14, and the height can be slidably adjusted. The height position is locked by the locking screw 16. The U-shaped hose section 7 is clamped and connected by the pipe clamp 17, which is convenient for adjusting the liquid level height in the test section 24 by adjusting the height of the water outlet end of the U-shaped hose section 7.

[0049] The U-shaped hose section 7 is a corrosion-resistant metal hose. The inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3 can be made of PP pipes.

[0050] Further, a flow meter 23 is provided on the water inlet pipe 2, and the water pump 4 includes a timer.

[0051] By setting the flow meter 23, the total water flow in the test pipe section 24 is counted, and by setting the timer, it is convenient to control the total test duration.

[0052] The water pump 4 including a timer and the flow meter 23 can both be directly purchased in the market. The water pump 4 is preferably a variable frequency constant pressure pump.
