Description

DELIVERY PRESSURE DETECTION SYSTEM FOR LONG DISTANCE SLURRY PIPELINE AND DETECTION METHOD THEREOF Field of the invention The present invention relates to a field of long distance slurry pipeline delivery, particularly to a delivery pressure detection system for a long distance slurry pipeline and a detection method of the system. Background of the invention While performing a long distance pipeline delivery of solid materials under hydraulic principles, since the delivery distance ranges from tens of kilometers to thousands of kilometers, a plurality of pressure detection stations for monitoring operation states of fluid in the pipeline are required to be increased depending on topography variations on a pipeline path. During an actual pipeline delivery, since process parameters such as delivery concentration and flow velocity may vary to a certain extent, rheological properties of the fluid vary accordingly. Therefore, on-way resistance of the fluid in the whole pipeline varies accordingly, and parameters of each pressure detection station vary accordingly. Consequently, the technical problem to be solved in a long distance pipeline delivery is how to detect parameters of the fluid in the pipeline and further adjust parameters of each pressure detection station in accordance with the detected parameters. Summary of the invention In order to precisely calculate on-way resistance of slurry under different concentrations and different flow velocities, the present invention discloses a delivery pressure detection system for a long distance slurry pipeline and a detection method of the system, and more particularly, discloses the technical solutions as follows: A delivery pressure detection system for a long distance slurry pipeline includes a detection ring pipe, a micro-differential pressure transmitter and a mercury U-tube differential pressure gauge; the detection ring pipe and a main pipe are exactly the same and are arranged in parallel; the micro-differential pressure

transmitter and the mercury U-tube differential pressure gauge are arranged at two ends of the detection ring pipe; a main pipe valve is arranged in the main pipe, a ring pipe inlet valve is arranged at an inlet end of the detection ring pipe and a ring pipe outlet valve is arranged at an outlet end thereof. The micro-differential pressure transmitter converts a detected pressure difference between the two ends of the detection ring pipe into an analog signal which is identifiable for a programmable logic controller, sends the analog signal to the programmable logic controller, and then the analog signal is transmitted to a pipeline operation expert system, which calculates the on-way resistance per unit length under current flow velocity and concentration by combining with an actual length of the detection ring pipe. The detection ring pipe is approximately 200 meters in length. A delivery slurry pressure detection method for a long distance slurry pipeline includes steps as follows: closing the main pipe valve, opening the ring pipe inlet valve and the ring pipe outlet valve when transporting slurry, so that the slurry passes through the detection ring pipe before entering a main pump; detecting the pressure difference between the two ends of the detection ring pipe with the micro-differential pressure transmitter, and sending a detected differential pressure value signal to the programmable logic controller; obtaining the differential pressure value of the slurry from the programmable logic controller by a pipeline operation expert system, and calculating the on-way resistance per unit length under current flow velocity and concentration by combining with the actual length of the detection ring pipe. A theoretical pressure value of respective pressure detection points is calculated according to length and altitude of respective pressure detection points on the path of the main pipeline, and a fluid movement state of the slurry in the pipeline is determined by comparing the theoretical pressure value with the actual detected value. The mercury U-tube differential pressure gauge is used for calibrating accuracy of the micro-differential pressure transmitter before the micro-differential -2pressure transmitter detects the pressure difference between the two ends of the detection ring pipe. Using the system disclosed in the present invention for detection solves a techncial problem that an error between a theoretical calculation value and an actual value is large under a turbulent state of two-phase flow, and guarantees that the long distance slurry pipeline operates securely, stably and high-efficiently. Brief Description of the Drawing Fig. 1: a schematic diagram illustrating a delivery pressure detection system for a long distance slurry pipeline of the invention. Reference remarks: 1- main pipe; 2- detection ring pipe; 3- mercury U-tube differential pressure gauge; 4- micro-differential pressure transmitter; 5- ring pipe inlet valve; 6- ring pipe outlet valve; 7- main pipe valve; 8- feed pump; 9- main pump inlet. Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiment The present invention is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawing. As shown in Fig. 1, in front of a main pump inlet (9) of a source pump station, that is, between a feed pump (8) and the main pump inlet (9), a detection ring pipe (2) which is exactly the same as a main pipe (1) is arranged in parallel to the main pipe (1), and the detection ring pipe (2) is approximately 200 meters in length. A micro-differential pressure transmitter (4) and a mercury U-tube differential pressure gauge (3) are arranged at two ends of the detection ring pipe (2). A main pipe valve (7) is closed, and a ring pipe inlet valve (5) and a ring pipe outlet valve (6) are opened when transporting slurry, so that the slurry passes through the detection ring pipe (2) before entering a main pump. Therefore, concentration and flow velocity of the slurry in the detection ring pipe (2) are the same as those in the main pipe (1). Firstly, the mercury U-tube differential pressure gauge (3) is used for calibrating accuracy of the micro-differential pressure transmitter (4). Then, a differential pressure value signal detected by the corrected -3micro-differential pressure transmitter (4) is sent to a PLC (programmable logic controller). A pipeline operation expert system obtains the differential pressure value from the PLC, and precisely calculates on-way resistance per unit length under the current flow velocity and concentration by combining with an actual length of the detection ring pipe (2). A theoretical pressure value of respective pressure detection points can be precisely calculated according to length and altitude of respective pressure detection points on the path of a main pipeline, and a fluid movement state of the slurry in the pipeline can be determined by comparing the theoretical pressure value with the actual detected value, reminding and instructing operators to perform corresponding operations in time. -4-
