Description

Detect the method for gas oil pipe leakage based on pressure signal knee

Technical field

The status of pipeline in national economy is important more, and the safe operation of pipeline is paid attention to more, as the leak detection technology of pipeline operation monitoring important component part always in continuous development.At present existing multiple pipeline leakage detection method, because pipeline leakage testing is the comprehensive of multi-field multi-subject knowledge, between the various detection methods aspect detection mode and technological means difference bigger, make an inspection tour the method that comparatively complicated software and hardware combines from the simplest manual segmentation along pipeline, detect from land and to develop into the seabed and detect, even utilize aircraft or satellite remote sensing to detect on a large scale pipe network etc.

The suction wave detection method has higher sensitivity and positional accuracy, is quite paid attention in the world in recent years.When line fracture takes place to leak, the pressure of leak descends suddenly, pressure wave is swum propagation up and down by leak, because the waveguide effect of tube wall, the decay of pressure-wave emission process is less, can propagate distance quite far away, and sensor can detect the moment that pressure wave arrives measurement point, utilize suction wave to pass through the mistiming and the velocity of propagation of suction wave in pipeline of upstream and downstream measurement point, can determine the leak position.Therefore the key of suction wave method is exactly to make the moment of suction wave by the upstream and downstream measurement point exactly.

Long-distance transmission pipeline is made up of the pipeline of a plurality of pumping plants and connection pumping plant, multiple measurement instrument is arranged on the pumping plant, and wherein pressure unit is the instrument that each pumping plant all has, and they are installed on the tube wall, directly the measuring channel internal pressure generally has higher measuring accuracy.The output valve of pressure unit can reflect the variation of pipeline transportation situation, so pipeline leakage testing adopts the output valve of pressure unit as basis for estimation mostly.According to the suction wave theory, suction wave the position (flex point) of sudden change occurs by the burst of the moment pressure unit output just of upstream and downstream measurement point, becomes the key of suction wave detection method so determine the flex point of pressure signal.

Obtaining the algorithm of pressure signal feature corners, at present main what adopt is Wavelet Transform, though its leakage positioning precision and sensitivity are higher, false alarm rate causes the unnecessary waste of manpower and materials easily also than higher.The algorithm based on kalman filtering theory detected pressures signal characteristic flex point that the inventor proposes not only can reduce false alarm rate effectively, and bearing accuracy and sensitivity adopts recursive algorithm to be convenient to computing machine and handle automatically also than higher, and real-time is good.
