Techniques of analysis for nonlinear transient flow in a pipe
نویسندگان
چکیده
Analytical solutions to the time-dependent, nonlinear equation governing incompressible, one dimensional flow in a pipe are presented. The flow is pressure-driven, and a valve on the pipe controls the flow rate. Power-law losses and an exponential closing action of a valve are assumed. Four different approximation methods are used. Of these, perturbation and Adomian’s decomposition are seen to be valid only for small time. The WKB approximation works only for a quadratic loss term. Homotopy analysis is broadly applicable but needs parameter tuning, optimal values of which have been determined.

INVERSE FREQUENCY RESPONSE ANALYSIS FOR PIPELINES LEAK DETECTION USING THE PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION
Inverse Transient Analysis (ITA) is a powerful approach for leak detection of pipelines. When the pipe transient flow is analyzed in frequency domain the ITA is called Inverse Frequency Response Analysis (IFRA). To implement an IFRA for leak detection, a transient state is initiated in the pipe by fast closure of the downstream end valve. Then, the pressure time history at the valve location is...
متن کاملAnalysis of the nonlinear axial vibrations of a cantilevered pipe conveying pulsating two-phase flow
The parametric resonance of the axial vibrations of a cantilever pipe conveying harmonically perturbed two-phase flow is investigated using the method of multiple scale perturbation. The nonlinear coupled and uncoupled planar dynamics of the pipe are examined for a scenario when the axial vibration is parametrically excited by the pulsating frequencies of the two phases conveyed by the pipe. Aw...
متن کاملDynamical stability of cantilevered pipe conveying fluid in the presence of linear dynamic vibration absorber
When the velocity of fluid flow in a cantilevered pipe is successively increased, the system may become unstable and flutter instability would occur at a critical flow velocity. This paper is concerned with exploring the dynamical stability of a cantilevered fluid-conveying pipe with an additional linear dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) attachment. It is endeavoured to show that the stability o...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of Vortex Interaction in Pipe Flow
To discover the nonlinear characteristics of pipe flow, we simulated the flow as a sum of many vortex rings. As a first step, we investigated the nonlinear interaction among a maximum of three vortex rings. The pipe wall was replaced by many bound vortices. A free vortex ring moves right or left according to the radius, and that of a particular radius keeps the initial position. The energy of a...

The fluid-conveying pipe is a fundamental dynamical problem in the field of fluid– structure interactions. In recent years considerable attention has been given to the lateral vibrations of pipes containing by a moving fluid.
