Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
When an extra-high voltage direct current transmission line is arranged around a metal pipeline buried underground, due to the characteristics of large current and intermittence in extra-high voltage direct current transmission, certain interference can be caused to the metal pipeline, the corrosion of the metal pipeline is accelerated, and the service life of the metal pipeline is shortened. Therefore, the method for determining the service life of the metal pipeline provided by the embodiment of the invention can be used for determining the service life of the metal pipeline suffering from the extra-high voltage direct current interference, so that a protection strategy of the interfered metal pipeline is formulated, and the normal operation of the metal pipeline is ensured.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a method for determining a remaining service life of a metal pipeline, according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the metal pipeline is buried underground, at least one defect may exist on the metal pipeline, and the at least one defect may be caused by an interference current generated by a ground electrode of a direct current transmission line (for example, an extra-high voltage direct current transmission line). As can be seen with reference to fig. 1, the method may comprise:
step 101, obtaining pipeline parameters of the metal pipeline.
The pipeline parameters may include: the density of the pipe, the relative atomic mass of the pipe, and the valence electrons of the pipe. Wherein the relative atomic mass of the pipe may be the relative atomic mass of the elements of the pipe which are most susceptible to corrosion under the influence of the disturbing current. The valence electrons of the pipe can be the valence electrons of elements in the pipe which are most easily corroded under the influence of interference current after corrosion.
By way of example, assuming that the metal pipe is made of X65 steel, the pipe thus obtained may have a density of X65 steel, which may be 7.85g/cm, for example3(g/cc). Since the iron element in the steel is easy to corrode under the extra-high voltage direct current interference, the relative atomic mass of the pipe can be the relative atomic mass of the iron element, namely 56. Since the iron element is usually present in the form of divalent iron ions after corrosion, the valence electron of the pipe may be 2.
And 102, acquiring the current density of the interference current at each defect on the metal pipeline.
The interference current can be generated by a grounding electrode of a direct current transmission line. The current density at each defect may refer to the ratio of the current flowing through the defect to the defect area at the defect.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a method for obtaining a current density according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 2, the method may include:
at step 1021, for each defect, an upstream current and a downstream current at the defect are obtained.
Wherein the upstream current may flow in a direction close to the defect, and the downstream current may flow in a direction away from the defect.
Optionally, when the upstream current and the downstream current of each defect are obtained, current loops may be respectively disposed on two sides of each defect on the metal pipe, and the current loops may be connected to the current detector. For each defect, when the grounding electrode of the direct current transmission line discharges, the upstream current and the downstream current detected by the current detectors on the two sides of the defect can be obtained.
For example, when the remaining service life of the metal pipe needs to be detected, a copper sulfate reference electrode may be inserted into the earth's surface first, and the insertion depth may be 5 cm. Then the positive pole of the multimeter is connected with the metal pipeline, and the negative pole is connected with the copper sulfate reference electrode. When the voltage of the metal pipeline is detected to exceed 10V (volt) through the multimeter, the discharge of the grounding electrode of the direct current transmission line can be determined, and at the moment, the upstream current and the downstream current of each defect can be obtained.
Each current loop may include two arc-shaped current loop main bodies, so that the current loop is conveniently sleeved on the metal pipeline.
Referring to fig. 3, a defect position of each defect in the metal pipe may be detected by the current gradient detector, and then the earth surface on both sides of the defect may be excavated according to the detected defect position of the defect, so as to expose the metal pipe. Then, current loops can be respectively arranged on two sides of the defect of the exposed metal pipeline, wherein the current loop on one side is connected with the current detector 01, and the current loop on the other side is connected with the current detector 02. Assuming that the flow direction of the disturbance current in the metal pipe is direction X, the current loop to which the current detector 01 is connected is located upstream of the defect, and the current detector 01 can be used to detect the upstream current at the defect. The current loop to which the current detector 02 is connected is located downstream of the defect where the current detector 02 can be used to detect the downstream current.
Assuming that the overall length of the metal pipeline is 400km (kilometers), a plurality of insulating flanges are arranged on the metal pipeline at intervals, the metal pipeline can be divided into a plurality of regions through the plurality of insulating flanges, and the lengths of the plurality of regions can be the same or different. Suppose that one of the regions is 10km long (the regions are provided with insulating flanges at both ends), and that the region is subject to extra-high voltage dc interference. And N is 10 defects (N is a positive integer) exist on the region, the upstream current and the downstream current of each defect can be obtained by adopting the method.
Step 1022, determining the current density at the defect according to the difference between the upstream current and the downstream current and the defect area at the defect.
Wherein, the defect area of the defect position can be detected by adopting equipment such as a Pipeline Current Mapper (PCM) and the like through an alternating current potential gradient method. For a first defect of the at least one defect, the current density I at the first defect, determined from the difference between the upstream current and the downstream current, and the defect area, may satisfy:
I=(Iu-Id) formula/S (1)
Wherein, IuIs the upstream current at the first defect, IdIs the downstream current at the first defect and S is the defect area at the first defect. The first defect may be any one of the at least one defect.
For example, assume that there are 10 defects on a metal pipe, and the defect areas S of the 10 defects detected by the ac potential gradient method are: 1.5cm2(square centimeter) and 10cm2、3.5cm2、2.2cm2、1.7cm2、6.5cm2、4.5cm2、1cm2、0.8cm2、5.5cm2. The difference between the upstream current and the downstream current at each of the 10 defects is: 0.009A (Ampere), 0.05A, 0.0098A, 0.02002A, 0.01989A, 0.00975A, 0.04005A, 0.0089A, 0.024A, 0.0297A. Then, according to the above formula (1), the current densities I at the 10 defects are determined as follows: 0.006A/cm2(ampere/square centimeter) 0.005A/cm2、0.0028A/cm2、0.0091A/cm2、0.0117A/cm2、0.0015A/cm2、0.0089A/cm2、0.03A/cm2、0.025A/cm2、0.0054A/cm2
And 103, acquiring an allowable corrosion thickness threshold value of each defect on the metal pipeline.
In an embodiment of the invention, the allowable corrosion thickness threshold at each defect is the difference between the remaining wall thickness at the defect and the minimum wall thickness at the defect for safe operation.
Because the shapes, sizes and corrosion thicknesses of the defects on the metal pipeline to be corroded are different, the allowable corrosion thickness threshold value of each defect is different. Assuming that the thickness etched at a defect is small, the allowable etch thickness threshold at that defect is large. Given the greater thickness of the etch at a defect, the threshold allowable etch thickness at that defect is less.
Fig. 4 is a flowchart of a method for obtaining an allowable corrosion thickness threshold according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 4, the method may include:
and step 1031, obtaining the residual wall thickness of each defect.
The remaining wall thickness at each defect can be detected by an in-pipe detector. The in-pipe detector may be placed inside a metal pipe, and the in-pipe detector may crawl inside the metal pipe to detect the remaining wall thickness at each defect on the metal pipe.
For example, assume that there are 10 defects on a metal pipe and the remaining wall thickness C at the 10 defects is detected by an in-pipe detectornowRespectively as follows: 1.24cm (centimeter), 1.27cm, 1.26cm, 1.25cm, 1.29cm, 1.2cm, 1.22cm, 1.21cm, 1.28 cm.
And step 1032, acquiring the minimum wall thickness of each defect for safe operation.
In order to ensure the safe operation of the metal pipeline, the wall thickness of the metal pipeline is greater than or equal to the minimum wall thickness. This minimum wall thickness can be obtained by:
step 10321, obtain a maximum operating pressure, an outside diameter, a minimum yield strength, and a design factor of strength at each defect for the metal pipe.
The maximum operating pressure, the outer diameter and the minimum yield strength of the metal pipe can be obtained from the design data of the metal pipe. The strength design factor of the metal pipeline can be determined according to the regional grade of the metal pipeline. The district level may be divided according to the density of buildings in the district grading unit, and the district level may include four levels from a first-class district to a fourth-class district. Wherein, the first-level area means: an area with 12 or less than 12 individual buildings in which people live. The second level area is: there are more than 12, and less than 80 independent buildings where people live. The third-level area is as follows: areas, industrial areas or areas where pipelines are laid within 90m from outdoor sites where people gather, where there are 80 or more than 80 individual buildings for human residence but there are not four levels of area conditions. The fourth-level area is: urban central areas with high traffic or underground utilities.
According to the national standard GB50251, the intensity design coefficient of a first-level area is 0.72, the intensity design coefficient of a second-level area is 0.6, the intensity design coefficient of a third-level area is 0.5, and the intensity design coefficient of a fourth-level area is 0.4. When a defect of the metal pipeline is located in the first-level region, the strength design coefficient of the defect is 0.72. When a certain defect of the metal pipeline is positioned in a third-level area, the strength design coefficient of the defect is 0.5.
For each defect, a minimum wall thickness at the defect is determined based on the maximum operating pressure, the outer diameter, the minimum yield strength, and the strength design factor at the defect, step 10322.
Wherein a minimum wall thickness C at the first defect of the at least one defectminPositively correlated with the maximum operating pressure P and the outside diameter D, with the minimum yield strength and the firstThe intensity design factor e at a defect is inversely related. The first defect is any defect of the at least one defect. Illustratively, the minimum wall thickness C at the first defectminCan satisfy the following conditions:
Cmin(P × D)/(2 ×× e) formula (2)
Where P is the maximum operating pressure, D is the outside diameter, is the minimum yield strength, and e is the strength design factor at the first defect.
For the same metal pipe, the maximum operating pressure P, the outside diameter D and the minimum yield strength are the same everywhere, while the design factor of strength e varies depending on the area where the defect is located. Therefore, among at least one defect on the same metal pipe, the minimum wall thickness C of each defect in the same areaminSame, minimum wall thickness C at each defect in different regionsminWill vary depending on the intensity design factor e.
For example, assuming that a metal pipe is made of X65 steel, the maximum operating pressure P of the metal pipe is 9.5MPa (megapascal), the outer diameter D of the metal pipe is 457mm (millimeter), the minimum yield strength of the pipe is 450MPa, 10 defects are present on the metal pipe, and the first four defects of the 10 defects are located in a first level area, and the last six defects are located in a second level area. The design factor of intensity e at the first four defects is 0.72 and the design factor of intensity e at the last six defects is 0.6. The minimum wall thickness C of the first four defects of the 10 defects can be calculated by equation (2)minAll 0.67cm, minimum wall thickness C at the last six defectsminAre all 0.80 cm.
Step 1033, for each defect, determining a difference between the remaining wall thickness at the defect and the minimum wall thickness as a threshold thickness of allowable erosion at the defect.
As can be seen from the above steps, the allowable etching thickness threshold CcorrCan satisfy the following conditions:
Ccorr=Cnow-Cmin=Cnow- (P × D)/(2 ×× e) formula (3)
For example, assume that there are 10 defects on a metal pipe, andresidual wall thickness C at the 10 defectsnowRespectively as follows: 1.24cm, 1.27cm, 1.26cm, 1.25cm, 1.29cm, 1.2cm, 1.22cm, 1.21cm, 1.28 cm. Minimum wall thickness C at the first four defectsmin0.67cm, minimum wall thickness C at the last six defectsminIs 0.80 cm. The allowable etch thickness threshold C for each of the 10 defects may be determined according to equation (3)corrRespectively as follows: 0.57cm, 0.60cm, 0.59cm, 0.45cm, 0.49cm, 0.40cm, 0.42cm, 0.41cm, and 0.48 cm.
And 104, determining a discharge factor according to the average discharge time of the direct-current transmission line to the metal pipeline.
In the embodiment of the invention, the discharge factor K can satisfy:
k ═ 365 × g/t equation (4)
Wherein 365 may refer to days included per year, g is a safety factor, g may range from 2 to 2.5, t is an average discharge time of the dc transmission line, and t may range from 6.5 days to 7.5 days. The average discharge time may refer to an average discharge time accumulated per year for a ground electrode of the dc transmission line.
For example, assuming that the safety factor g is 2 and the average discharge time t of the dc transmission line is 7.5 days, the discharge factor K is obtained according to the formula (4): k730/7.5 97.33.
And step 105, determining the residual life of each defect according to the pipeline parameters, the discharge factor, the current density of the defect and the allowable corrosion thickness threshold value for each defect.
In an embodiment of the invention, the remaining lifetime at each defect is positively correlated with the density of the pipe, the valence electron of the pipe, the allowable corrosion thickness threshold at the first defect, and the discharge factor, and negatively correlated with the relative atomic mass of the pipe and the current density at the defect.
For example, the remaining lifetime T at the first defect of the at least one defect may satisfy:
T=(ρ×F×n×K×Ccorr) /(M × i) formula (5)
Wherein rho is the density of the pipe, F is FaradayConstant, n is valence electron of the tube, K is discharge factor, CcorrIs the allowable corrosion thickness threshold at the first defect, M is the relative atomic mass of the pipe, and i is the current density at the first defect.
Optionally, for convenience of statistics, when the remaining life T1 of the first defect is calculated according to the obtained data, rounding may be performed on the calculation result, that is, the remaining life T of the first defect may satisfy:
