Effect of Pressure on Insulation Failure and Pipe Leakage in Natural Gas Transmission Pipeline Using Simulation Software

Abstract

Effect on insulation failure and pipeline leakage in natural gas transmission line using simulation software known as EXTENDSIM9 SUIT was applied to monitor, predict and simulate the variation in pressure in a pipeline system. The computational fluid dynamics parameters for the flow of compressible gas in a pipeline includes density and pressure which changes along the transmission line due to frictional resistance, and may lead to fogging/ hydrate formation or sudden degradation of pipe materials like erosion which gradually leads to corrosion or rust, pitting etc. This anomaly is one of the major contributions to pipeline failure thus this developed model can be used to monitor and predict insulation failure along the natural gas transmission pipeline since there is a lot of the discrepancy between the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) parameters and their arrival components. Key words: Effect, pressure, insulation failure, pipe leakage, natural gas, transmission pipeline, simulation software
