In order to solve the need of the oil and gas pipeline defect quantification in the real-time online defecting, magnetic flux leakage inspection method was applied to oil and gas pipeline inspection. According to the basic theory of the electromagnetic field, finite element solution of electromagnetic field and ANSYS electromagnetic field calculation theory, using the function of ANSYS 's simulation and calculation for magnetic field, three-dimensional finite element model of the oil and gas pipeline defect was built up. Through simulating, the relationship between defect signal and defect size was found, the optimal distance of the hall sensor lift-off value was verified, the best magnetization of leakage magnetic field was discussed, and various factors to influence the magnetic flux leakage signal is analyzed.

Flux Leakage

Storage tank is an essential vessel in petrochemical industry, and the corrosion of tank is an important reason for the safety hazard. The corrosion of tank bottom plate is more serious than the tank wall, and it is not easy to check and repair, when damaged to a certain extent it will cause the leakage of the media, then lead to waste of energy, environmental pollution, at the same time it will cause a major accident. Magnetic flux leakage testing is widely used in the field of tank floor inspection with the advantages of fast scanning speed, accurate results and so on. In this paper, the finite element simulation and analysis of the corrosion defect leakage magnetic field is used to obtain the data, and the characteristic of the leakage magnetic field is extracted. The effect of defect depth and width and shape on the magnetic flux leakage field is studied, and the distribution curve of the magnetic flux leakage field is obtained.
