Plastic failure of pipelines caused by ground overload is increasing. The one-dimensional model based on mechanical nodal parameters cannot predict the plastic failure characteristics of the three-dimensional structure of the pipeline. In order to predict the evolution of the plastic failure of the pipeline with the yield strength as the evaluation criterion, a multidimensional model is needed to consider the changes in the external loads and the changes in the mechanical properties of the pipeline along the circumferential and axial directions. In this study, a finite element calculation model for a large-diameter gas pipeline underground overload was established to investigate the law of stress change in the plastic zone. The nonlinear surface fitting method was used to establish the angle fitting model of the plastic zone and the depth fitting model of the plastic zone. The variation of the area of the plastic zone was described, and the reliability of the results was verified. In addition, the accuracy of the fitting model and the cost of the finite element calculation were evaluated. The results showed that the pipeline entered plasticity at a ground load of P = 25 MPa, and the plastic zone developed continuously in the axial and circumferential directions as the ground load increased. The angle and depth increased to 36° and 1.8 m, respectively, at P = 50 MPa. The average absolute errors for the plastic zone depth fitting model and the plastic zone angle fitting model were 6.42% and 6.64%, respectively, both of which can provide an accurate description of the plastic zone. The calculation results of the plastic zone angle fitting model could meet requirements of data processing and analysis. The plastic zone depth fitting model could be used to obtain solutions with higher accuracy, but it increases the cost of finite element simulation.

Long-distance energy pipeline pass under roads, subjecting them to repeated stress and posing pipeline safety problems. To simulate the effects of vehicles driving over energy transmission pipeline, this paper examines large-caliber buried pipelines in the suburbs. In this study, a mechanical action model of vehicle-soil-pipeline (VSP) interactions to transform the process of a vehicle driving into the dynamic process of a load changing with time in the specified area was created. The VSP model was used to analyze the influence of moving load and position on the structural characteristics of the pipeline section. An equivalent solution method with high precision and high calculation efficiency was proposed. The results showed that as the loading position approaches the pipeline or the load increases, the stress value at the top of the pipeline gradually exceeded the stress value at the bottom of the pipeline and became the area with the maximum stress value. The minimum stress location also changed from the lower half near the pipeline bottom (Point D-135°) to the upper half near the pipeline top (Point B-45°or Point H-315°). Using the polynomial fitting method, the stress values of the maximum points were equivalently converted. Under the premise of considering pipeline safety, the most suitable functional relationship for the moving load equivalent model was obtained.

As the main component of energy transmission, long-distance energy transmission pipeline (LETP), whose safety problem is becoming more and more prominent with the development of the oil and gas transportation industry, is susceptible to the traffic loading, temperature loading, pressure loading and other loadings. In this paper, the mechanical characteristics of LETP under the interaction of temperature loading and pressure loading are investigated. Based on the theory of multi-field coupling, the mathematical model of fluid-solid-thermal coupling of fluid-filled pipelines under the combined effect of temperature and pressure loadings is established and verified. Meanwhile, an equivalent model is proposed to accurately calculate the stress of any pipeline segment in LETP. The results show that the coupling of temperature loading and the pressure loading is significantly affected by the end-side constraints of the pipelines. For strong end-side constraint, the coupling effect of temperature and pressure loadings has a significant effect on the calculated equivalent stress. The difference between the stress solution under coupling effect and decoupling effect is above 30 MPa. However, for weak end-side constraints, the error is within 10 MPa. The equivalent stress can be approximated by the decoupling solution instead of the coupling solution.

This paper carried out numerical investigations on the flow and heat transfer characteristics of a phase change with two-dimensional rotation of the three-dimensional paraffin (RT -27)-filled rectangular encapsulated container (PCM-REC) in space. A three-dimensional transient numerical heat transfer model was established and the enthalpy method was used to simulate the solid-liquid phase transition process and the flow evolution at the PCM interface. In this paper, the solid-liquid interface distribution, temperature distribution and melting time of PCM in PCM-REC heated at a constant temperature on one side were compared when rotated at different angles (0°, arctan (0.4), 2arctan (0.4) and 90°) along the heating direction and vertical heating direction. Results demonstrated that the peak value of maximum natural convection velocity increased from 0.0072 m/s to 0.0184 m/s with increasing radial height when PCM-REC was rotated in vertical heating direction. When PCM-REC was rotated in two dimensions by the same angle, the melting time was fastest when γ was an obtuse angle, and with the increase of the obtuse angle, the melting time shortened from 17 min to 6 min; when γ was an acute angle, the melting time was slowest, and with the decrease of the acute angle, the melting time lengthened from 49 min to 288 min.

Based on the design concept of a fourth-generation smart pipe network system, this paper innovatively proposes a new TOTS (Two-supply/One-return, triple pipe structure) arrangement method for district heating systems. Moreover, to accurately predict the heat loss due to the pipeline operation of the multi-pipe system, based on the multipole calculation method, a new heat loss theoretical analytical model for the TOTS was created; additionally, a corresponding three-dimensional numerical simulation model was established, which was analyzed and numerically solved. The results showed that in comparison with thermal loss data measured by Danfoss et al., the above analytical and numerical models have a high accuracy, and the deviation is within 2%. Additionally, through calculations, it was found that the distance between the heating pipes is an important factor that affects the total heat loss from the new multi-control heating system and the actual heat exchange between pipes.
