Static And Dynamic Loading

During operation the technological pipelines of gas-distributing station are affected by mechanical static loading resulted from internal pressure of gas in the high pressure pipelines and a dynamic loading from a high-speed stream of gas in low pressure pipelines. A comparison is made of characteristics of mechanical properties of gas-distributing station pipes metal after a long-term operation for the conditions of static and dynamic loading effects.

Many engineering applications involve the motion of objects crossing a fluid interface. The dynamics of this process are often complicated due to the interplay of surface tension, gravity, and inertia. Nevertheless, a simple analysis using potential flow theory works well to predict the interfacial profile of the air cavity formed during an impact. Most current theories however, cannot predict the behavior of the air cavity after pinch off occurs. We therefore investigated the long term dynamics of water entry in both experiment and theory. It was found that shortly after pinch off the cavity dynamics become governed primarily by thermodynamic gas relations. The internal pressure slowly rises due to the cavity volume decreasing while the ambient liquid pressure quickly increases as a result of the descent of the projectile. This effect is incorporated into our model to correctly predict the cavity geometry.

Salt Cavern Gas Storage

The operation pressure of underground salt-cavern gas storage directly affects its stability. Because of seasonal demand and other emergency reasons, the gas storage working pressures always change from high to low or from low to high cyclic variation. In order to analyze the effect of gas storage pressure changing on its long-term stability, considering the salt rock creep, a 3D finite element model was built using the software Abaqus. Moreover, the deformation and analyzed results of the storage under 0 MPa, 4 MPa, 6 MPa, 8 MPa, 10 MPa, and 12 MPa and also circulating changes pressure operation were given in the 10-year creep. It concluded that how working pressures have effect on long-term stability of salt-cavern gas storage. The research results indicated that the long-term creep performance of underground salt cavern gas storage is affected by internal pressure, the smaller the internal pressure creep is, the more obvious the creep and the greater deformation of gas storage are. The greater the internal pressure is, the smaller the deformation of the gas storage is. The low pressure and excessive high pressure must be avoided during the operation of gas storage. These results have an important significance on determining the reasonable pressure of gas storage operation and ensure the long-term stability of gas storage.

AbstractCorrosion and corrosion-fatigue tests of the material of the pipeline, which was in operation for 41 years. It has been shown that prolonged operation reduces the parameters of resistance to fatigue and prolonged static loading in corrosive environments. It was established that the degradation of physical and mechanical properties is insignificant, Ukraine’s main gas pipelines are ready to operate at full capacity provided that timely monitoring measures are carried out.

Term Storage

In the concrete cask, the canister is sealed with lids by welding, and has high sealing performance. But considering long-term storage, there is a concern about loss of the sealing performance due to stress corrosion cracking (SCC). In the concrete cask, unlike the metal cask, it is not mandatory to constantly monitor helium pressure between the lids. However, it is useful from the viewpoint of improving safety during the long-term storage to install a helium leak detector in the canister inside the concrete cask. Currently, we are developing the leak detector utilizing the phenomenon that the surface temperature of the canister changes when helium leaks out of the canister. As part of developing the leak detector of the canister, leak tests were performed using a small canister model as a pressurized vessel and a 1/4.5 scale cask model of the actual cask including the canister. This leak detector utilized the phenomenon that canister bottom temperature (TB) increases and canister lid temperature (TT) decreases when the internal pressure of the canister decreases. In computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculation, focused on this phenomenon, the influence of the internal pressure and physical properties of internal gas in the canister were examined by calculating conditions of three kinds of pressure and two types of gas (air and helium). The main purpose of the CFD calculation was to confirm the results of the experiment, and we grasped the phenomenon occurring in the canister and elucidated its mechanism. For the CFD calculation, a commercial CFD software, STAR-CCM+® (ver.12.06.010) by Siemens PLM Software Company, was used. A CAD file used for the calculation simulated also the shape inside the canister (e.g. basket, fuel rods). A polyhedral mesh was used for a calculation mesh. In the small canister model, a mesh of its ambient air was not generated, and heat transfer between the canister surface and the ambient air was calculated from a heat transfer correlation equation. On the other hand, in the 1 / 4.5 scale cask model, the mesh of its ambient air was generated, so that the heat transfer on the surface of the canister was calculated according to the actual heat transfer phenomenon. The internal gas and the ambient air of the canister were ideal gas, and buoyancy due to density change was taken into consideration. A realizable k-epsilon model was used for a turbulence model, and a DO model was used for a radiation model.
