Abstract
The purpose of this article is to review the existing reliability problems of pipeline systems of power complexes. The article considers the existing statistical and logistics systems, which allow to process diagnostic information when assessing the technical condition of pipelines. Modern diagnostic methods are mainly based on the use of vibration, sound, and ultrasonic sensors. The presence of a defect in a pipeline is determined by analysis of the amplitude of a diagnostic signal. Higher efficiency in detecting defects was shown by probability-statistical methods of signal analysis, which are based on chaos theory. One such method is entropy analysis. Analysis of modern signal processing methods has shown that methods based on chaos theory are the most effective. The possibility of using entropy indices as sensitive diagnostic signs is considered. Comparative analysis of signal processing was carried out using entropy methods (Shannon entropy, Kolmogorov entropy) and using known statistical and logistic methods (Fourier Transform, Wavelet Transform, Hilbert-Huang Transform). The analysis results showed that entropy indicators respond to a change in signal structure caused by the presence of a defect in the pipeline or Entropy analysis is a promising method of processing diagnostic signals when assessing the technical condition of pipelines.
