Fan Yubin, Wang Weiqiang, Qin Guoqing, Zhuang Zhenggang
Abstract355)   HTML    PDF (3330KB)(233)      
In order to explore the influence of deep sea T⁃tube flow difference and pipe diameter abrupt change on the flow characteristic parameters of the vertical pipe, a certain oil and gas field in the South China Sea was taken as the research object, and the numerical simulation method was used. The results show that the influence of flow rate difference is related to the sum of the total flow rate instead of the each flow; the effect of changing diameters of riser pipe on relevant parameters can be divided into three stages: DC=0.03 m, DC=0.06~0.12 m and DC=0.24 m. And when the vertical riser has a sudden change, the flow parameters are mainly related to its minimal pipe diameter.

In order to explore the flow characteristics of vertical pipe in the deep⁃sea horizontal pipe⁃catenary system, in this paper, aiming at an oil and gas field in the south China sea, the influence of diameters, total flow rate, water cut and outlet pressure were simulated. The results show that the position of the flow state in the pipe is the boundary, and the influence of each influencing factor on the flow state parameters in the pipe shows different changes, but the temperature distribution along the pipe is not affected by the relevant factors; From the perspective of the research scope of the above four parameters, the influence process of each parameter is divided into different stages. The influence of pipe diameter is divided into two stages: D=0.06~0.12 m and D=0.12~0.50 m, the total flow of Q=0.001~0.030 m3/s and Q=0.100~0.300 m3/s, the water content of w=10%~25% and w=25%~30%, and the outlet pressure is divided into three stages, including 0~5.0, 5.0~7.0, 7.0~10.0 MPa.

Spherical Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles with good dispersibility (denoted as S1) were prepared by Stöber hydrolysis⁃polycondensation method, and the particle size was 300~430 nm.In order to investigate effect of carbon number in the organosilicone on 51 hydrophobicity and demusification of magnetic nanoparticles, the methyl triethoxysilane, n⁃hexyltriethoxysilane, n⁃dodecyltrimethoxysilane and n⁃octadecyltriethoxysilane were used to modify the surface of the S1 respectively, and the products were marked for S2—S5. The magnetic samples were characterized by electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), X⁃ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). The static water contact angle of magnetic nanoparticles (θW) were 10.6º、42.6º、113.6º、128.0º and 148.3º for S1—S5 respectively, and the results indicated that the θW increased with carbon number in the silane coupling agent increasing. Besides, the hydrophobic coating amount on the S1 surface of S2—S5 were estimated to be 0.005, 0.087, 0.092 g/g and 0.087 g/g respectively. The samples can be applied to removal the oil from water surfaces. Four kinds of silicone⁃modified magnetic particles can remove the surface oil, the n⁃dodecyltrimethoxysilane modified magnetic particles have the best effect of removing oil.

Li Chuang,Ba Liang,Wang Guofu,Du Shengnan,Wang Weiqiang
Abstract393)   HTML    PDF (4385KB)(139)      
The small groove surface flowing in the direction can effectively reduce the wall friction and reduce the energy consumption of transportation. For the gas pipeline with triangular ribs on the inner surface, the large eddy simulation is used to simulate different flow states, and the flow field velocity vector diagram, root mean square velocity profile line and Reynolds shear stress are analyzed. The simulation results show that the best drag reduction effect is achieved when the dimensionless dimension s+=20.7; the vortex formed by the turbulence is cut by the rib peak when passing through the rib to form a small reverse small vortex in the rib, and the fluid is the sliding friction between the wall surfaces which is converted into rolling friction, which reduces the frictional resistance; the velocity profiles of smooth tube wall, rib peak and valley bottom surface only differ greatly near the wall surface, and tend to be consistent far from the wall surface, and the rib pair the influence of the flow field mainly occurs in the near wall area.

Abstract543)      PDF (4045KB)(186)      
Water in oil emulsion was prepared under different water volume fraction,stirring speed and temperature.By simulating the different situations encountered in the process of mixed transportation,the particle size distribution of the emulsion droplets and its relationship with viscosity were analyzed.The results show that when the volume fraction of water is less than 60% in the emulsion,the average particle size of the dispersed phase of the emulsion becomes smaller as the stirring speed is increased,and the viscosity becomes larger.With the increase of temperature,the average particle size of the dispersed phase of the emulsion is larger and the viscosity gradually decreases.As the volume fraction of water increases,the average particle size of the dispersed phase droplets becomes larger,and the viscosity shows a clear upward trend.However,when the water volume fraction is greater than 60%,the viscosity of the emulsion decreases drastically as the volume fraction of water increases,and the flow pattern of emulsion changes.The research results have certain guiding significance for the safe operation of pipelines and the study of gathering and transportation technology.

Abstract623)      PDF (3458KB)(499)      
Wax in waxy crude oil is one of the main reasons for the poor fluidity of crude oil. In order to solve the great difficulties brought by the fluidity of waxy crude oil to crude oil mining and gathering, it is necessary to carry out wax removal treatment on crude oil.Microbial paraffin removal technology is the use of microbial metabolism to directly degrade wax components in crude oil and degrade long chain hydrocarbons into medium and short chains, thus reducing the wax content in crude oil at all. By detecting the wax content in crude oil and wax crystal morphology before and after the treatment of compound bacteria, the effects of the compound bacteria on the degradation of wax components in crude oil and the morphology and size of wax crystals in crude oil are studied, it is concluded that the wax removal characteristics of the compound bacteria are analyzed macroscopically. Finally, the paraffin removal effect of the compound bacteria is verified from the microscopic point by detecting the particle size distribution of the oil sample after paraffin removal treatment.

Abstract449)      PDF (4773KB)(170)      
The most important form of loss of energy in long-distance gas pipelines was turbulence resistance. In order to study the V-shaped riblet influence on the resistance in the gas pipeline, this paper used the software of CFD to simulate two different geometric size of V-shaped riblets and smooth pipe. The Reynolds number was 74 880. By analyzing the flow field in the pipeline, the distribution of vorticity and wall shear stress, the reasons for increasing drag and decreasing resistance were found. Based on this, the drag reduction mechanism was obtained. The results showed that:compared with the smooth gas transmission pipeline,when the riblet size in the pipeline was s +=22, the flow velocity, vorticity value, the area of wall shear stress and the shear stress were small. Riblet had the effect of drag reduction. When the riblet size of the pipeline was s +=44, the flow velocity of the near wall area, the vorticity value at the top of the riblet, the wall shear stress increased area and the shear stress value was large. Riblet had the effect of increasing resistance.

Qi Chao, Wu Yuguo, Wang Weiqiang, Zhang Yinan
Abstract677)      PDF (2345KB)(289)      
The moisture content of soil will change when the ambient temperature changes in permafrost, and by this time the internal friction angle, cohesion and severe of permafrost will change accordingly. And for slope segments of buried pipelines, the soil will produce friction on the pipeline along the slope direction with the thawing of permafrost occurrence, to make the pipeline generate the additional tensile stress. Understanding the impact of frozen soil parameters on the pipeline stress correctly was convenient to the analysis of pipeline stress, and it had practical significance for the development of scientific and effective method of preventing damage. When the frozen soil around the buried pipeline of slope section thaws, the degree of influence on pipeline stress with different soil parameter was investigated, and yields the conclusion by the numerical simulation. The results show: when thaw landslide occurs, with the increasing of soil cohesion and weight of soil, the pipeline stress increased; and with the increasing of internal friction angle, the pipeline stress decreased. Moreover, the friction angle of the frozen soil was the most sensitive to the pipeline stress, weight of soil followed, and the influence of permafrost cohesion on pipeline stress was minimal.
