Gray cast-iron water pipe metallurgy
The results of a metallographic study of grey cast iron water pipes are reported. These pipes had been installed between 1885 and 1973 in eight different water systems. Each pipe had been extracted during scheduled maintenance or failure repairs to provide data for a larger study to produce a methodology for determining the residual life of grey cast iron pipes. This metallographic study was co...
متن کاملenvironmental effects of gol-e-gohar iron ore mine on groundwater of the area
gol-e-gohar iron ore mine of sirjan in southern part of iran is a large open pit that operates below the groundwater table and during mining operation, dewatering is required to prevent operation processes from flooding. current operation is going on by digging wells in or out of the pit and pumping to prevent flooding. as a result of the former dewatering operation a vast deep cone of depressi...
Failure modes and mechanisms in gray cast iron pipe
Failures in cast iron water mains are more complex and diverse than is widely understood in the industry. This paper discusses the modes and causes of pipe failures that have been encountered during a three year investigation by the National Research Council Canada. In addition to corrosion, manufacturing defects, human error and unexpected levels of pipe loading all play a role in the large nu...
متن کاملSealing Performance of the End Fitting of a Marine Unbonded Flexible Pipe under Pressure Penetration
The sealing performance of end fittings is very important for offshore oil and gas pipelines. To investigate the sealing behavior of a ring-shaped wedge seal, global and local numerical models of the ring–pipe interaction have been developed based on the finite-element method. First, the sealing process of the ring under pressure is simulated. Second, a criterion for the penetration of fluid pr...
متن کاملThree dimensional mapping of corrosion pits in cast iron pipe using the remote field effect
The remote field effect is an electromagnetic method for inspecting pipes and tubing. It has recently been commercialised as a technique for inspecting gray cast iron and ductile iron water mains. However, commercial tools provide information on pits depths in the pipe and overall wall loss. Models of the mechanical behaviour of cast iron pipe also require information on pit width and length. T...
