- CCS Carbon Steel pipes called oil well pipes are used for dioxide (capture and storage)
- geothermal power generation geothermal power generation
- hot springs A threaded joint is used to connect the steel pipes together.
- the types of threaded joints for steel pipes of this type are roughly classified into coupling types and integral types.
- one of the pair of pipe members to be connected is a steel pipe and the other pipe member is a coupling.
- male threads are formed on the outer circumferences of both ends of the steel pipe
- female threads are formed on the inner circumferences of both ends of the coupling. Then, the male thread of the steel pipe is screwed into the female thread of the coupling, whereby the both are fastened and connected.
- the pair of pipe materials to be connected are both steel pipes, and separate couplings are not used.
- a male screw is formed on the outer circumference of one end of the steel pipe and a female screw is formed on the inner circumference of the other end. Then, the male screw of one steel pipe is screwed into the female screw of the other steel pipe, whereby both are fastened and connected.
- the joint part of the pipe end where the external thread is formed includes the element to be inserted into the internal thread, and is therefore called “pin”.
- the female threaded end of the tube is referred to as a "box” because it includes an element that receives a male thread.
- These pins and boxes are tubular because they are the ends of the tubing.
- the threaded joint is required to have sealing performance against fluid pressure from the inside (hereinafter, also referred to as “internal pressure”) and fluid pressure from the outside (hereinafter also referred to as “external pressure”).
- the required sealing performance is also high. Therefore, the threaded joint is provided with a metal seal in which the metals come into contact with each other.
- the metal seal is composed of a pin seal provided on the outer peripheral surface of the pin and a box seal provided on the inner peripheral surface of the box.

- the thread width of the wedge-shaped screw gradually changes along the spiral direction.

- Patent Documents 1 to 3 describes the rate of change in the thread width of the wedge-shaped screw.
- Patent Document 4 also discloses a threaded joint using a wedge-shaped screw.
- the leads between the male stubbing flanks and the leads between the male load flanks are both constant.
- the leads between the female stubbing flanks and the leads between the female load flanks are constant near both ends of the female thread region. Therefore, the thread width is constant near both ends of the thread region.
- the loading surface and the insertion surface of the wedge-shaped screw have a negative flank angle, so the wedge-shaped screw exerts high torque performance by caulking at the time of fastening.
- wedge threads may have a thread width that narrows toward the tip of the pin or box to facilitate fastening. In other words, there is a difference between the load surface pitch and the insertion surface pitch. This pitch difference is called "delta lead”. Delta leads determine the thread width near the tips of pins and boxes.
- the wedge Ratio is the delta lead divided by the load face pitch and is expressed as a percentage of the delta lead to the load face pitch.
- a large wedge ratio means a large reduction rate of the thread width. If the wedge ratio is large, the thread width becomes narrow near the tip of the pin and the box. If the thread width is narrow, the wedge screw may not be able to withstand a large tensile load, and the thread itself may be destroyed. Therefore, care must be taken when setting the wedge ratio.
- tensile performance the ability of the wedge screw to withstand a tensile load is referred to as “tensile performance”.
- Patent Document 4 JP 2012-512347 A discloses the optimization of the wedge ratio.

Abstract
Description
材料:API規格の油井管材料L80(公称耐力YS=552MPa(80ksi))
ねじテーパ:1/12
ねじ長さ:50mm(ピン)、60mm(ボックス)
ねじ高さ:1.8mm
フランク角:-5度(荷重面及び挿入面の両方とも)
荷重面ピッチ:7.2mm、8.64mm、又は10.8mm
ウェッジ比:2~10%
挿入面ピッチ:ウェッジ比に応じて逆算
トルク性能については、締結トルク線図において締結トルクが降伏し始める値MTV(Maximum Torque Value)を降伏トルクと定義し、その値で評価した。
引張性能については、ねじ継手1が降伏する引張荷重と同等の荷重を締結されたねじ継手に負荷し、雄ねじ11及び雌ねじ21の中で最も先端側に位置するねじの荷重面111,211及び挿入面112,212の付け根部分に生じる相当塑性ひずみの最大値で評価した。本発明者らの実管試験からの経験上、相当塑性ひずみが0.08程度になると、ねじ山が破壊するリスクが高くなる。そのため、相当塑性ひずみの閾値を0.080として、これよりも低い値であれば引張性能に優れると評価した。ただし、さらに安全側に余裕を見て、相当塑性ひずみの閾値を0.070としてもよい。
密封性能評価については、図4に示されるように、実体試験を模擬した複合荷重を負荷し、シール13,23に生じる接触面圧を算出した。シール接触面圧の分布から平均接触面圧及びピーク接触面圧を求め、荷重経路において接触面圧が最も低い値を最小接触面圧と定義し、その値で評価した。荷重条件の経路はISO13679で規定される荷重条件の経路に従い、軸力は継手の降伏楕円の95%の値を負荷し、圧力は継手の降伏楕円の47.5%の値を負荷した。
図5~図7は、有限要素解析で得た降伏トルクの値を示す。横軸にウェッジ比、縦軸にそれに対応するMTVの値をプロットした。ねじピッチに関係なく、MTVはウェッジ比に応じて増加し、特に2~3%の領域で最も上昇した。図6で確認できる通り、ウェッジ比が9%付近でMTVが最大になり、その後、下降に転じた。
