  • Patent number: 11911975
    Abstract: The invention provides a carbon fiber reinforced plastic electrofusion fitting and a self-monitoring method of strain for the fitting. Carbon fiber filled polymer is used to fabricate the fitting to improve the mechanical strength of the fitting. The fitting comprises an electrofusion fitting body embedded with a resistance heating wire and two terminals arranged on the electrofusion fitting body and connected to the two ends of the resistance heating wire respectively. For the self-monitoring of strain, at least one pair of electrodes are set on the surface of the electrofusion fitting. The resistance change between electrodes caused by fitting deformation due to temperature change or mechanical loading during operation can be measured, and could be further used for structural health monitoring of the electrofusion fitting. The combination of mechanical enhancement and strain sensing of the electrofusion fitting can improve the performance and reliability of plastic pipelines.

  • Publication number: 20230029619
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method for calculating an internal explosion load speed based on an incremental crack growth distance of a pipeline. The method includes steps of: respectively measuring at least three groups of distances between neighboring markings on forward and backward crack surfaces, and calculating the average values respectively to obtain the average incremental growth distances of forward and backward cracks; calculating the natural vibration frequency of the pipeline; and setting the ratio of backward crack speed to forward crack speed of the pipeline, then calculating the internal explosion load speed of the pipeline by a formula. The present disclosure provides a new effective method for calculating the internal explosion load speed based on the available parameters of the ruptured pipeline after explosion, which can provide a comparatively accurate estimation of internal explosion load speed, thereby providing references for inferring the explosion type occurred in the pipeline.
