Abstract

This paper discusses the development of calculation complex (model, algorithm and software) needed to investigate vibration parameters (amplitudes of displacements, internal forces and support responses) of a constant cross-section pipeline with a perfect incompressible fluid flowing inside it. This paper presents a pipeline model as quasi-monomeric finite-element system. Presently, the study discusses vibration of a straight constant cross-section pipeline resting on two elastic supports. Calculation algorithm is based on the discrete variant of partial-response method. The effect of fluid flow is taken into account as an additional inertial load incorporated, in its turn, by means of corrections and modifications of inertia & stiffness parameters of pipeline model. The study gives calculation expressions for partial responses and partial parameters, needed to implement the algorithm suggested by the authors. The problem formulated in this paper was solved as per specially developed mathematical model taking into account the forces due to the flow in the pipe. The paper also suggests calculation algorithm for vibration parameters of the adopted model. These vibration parameters were obtained in specially developed Koriolis software. The study also investigated the effect of additional inertial load components upon vibration parameters and natural frequencies of the structure at question. All these activities made it possible to accomplish the task of the whole study, i.e. to develop the calculation complex for determination of pipeline vibration parameters.
