Umbilical cable stacking temperature rise test system and test method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of umbilical cable winch stacking temperature rise test, in particular to an umbilical cable stacking temperature rise test system and a test method.
Background
Due to the flexible and variable depth of the ROV work, a longer umbilical is required. The umbilical is typically coiled on a winch and coiled and uncoiled as the working depth of the ROV changes.
Since umbilical cables are often several kilometers long, they need to be wound in very many layers on the winch. When the ROV works in a shallow water area, more umbilical cables are not unreeled on the winch, and if the ROV works under high power and full load at the moment, the serious stacking heat accumulation effect exists on the umbilical cables on the winch, so that the problem of stacking temperature rise exists.
The problem of stack temperature rise of the umbilical cable limits the rated current-carrying capacity of the umbilical cable, and simultaneously greatly increases the insulation conductance and increases the risk of insulation thermal breakdown. For the temperature rise design capability of the umbilical cable, a method of referencing design experience of power cable pipeline arrangement and thermal simulation numerical calculation is mostly adopted for design. For the experimental test method, the umbilical cable has extremely high cost, and the temperature measurement can only measure the surface temperature of the outermost layer round, so the significance is not great, and the experimental test is not greatly developed.
