Abstract:

In order to solve the need of the oil and gas pipeline defect quantification in the real-time online defecting, magnetic flux leakage inspection method was applied to oil and gas pipeline inspection. According to the basic theory of the electromagnetic field, finite element solution of electromagnetic field and ANSYS electromagnetic field calculation theory, using the function of ANSYS 's simulation and calculation for magnetic field, three-dimensional finite element model of the oil and gas pipeline defect was built up. Through simulating, the relationship between defect signal and defect size was found, the optimal distance of the hall sensor lift-off value was verified, the best magnetization of leakage magnetic field was discussed, and various factors to influence the magnetic flux leakage signal is analyzed.
