Numerical Simulation of Temperature Drop along Submarine Oil Pipeline

Article Preview

Abstract:

Most of the offshore oil and gas is transported to land by submarine pipeline, and then processed. In order to decrease the fluid viscosity and increase flowing roperty, the pipeline is usually be heated. To evaluate the temperature change during oil and gas transport, this paper build the the physical and mathematical model of submarine oil pipeline, and using the software COMSOL Multiphysics to simulate temperature drop along the pipe, which provides a reliable parameters for the design of pipeline.
