双椭流线型海底管线抵御滑坡冲击的减灾效果与降阻机理研究

近年来,随着海洋能源开发步伐的加快,海底管线铺设的数量不断增加,在服役期内这些管线是否稳定直接影响着海洋油气开采、作业人员生命财产及海洋生态环境的安全。针对海底管线易遭受滑坡破坏的现状,提出一种具有双椭流线型截面的海底管线,基于计算流体动力学(CFD)方法,分析了新型管线在滑坡冲击作用下的减灾效果与降阻机理。研究表明,对于平铺和悬浮式铺设形式,双椭流线型管线可以延缓边界层的分离,降低卡门涡街对管线的振动影响,有效地降低了滑移体冲击管线产生的拖曳力和升力,最大可使拖曳力系数降低71.01%,升力系数降低32.14%;并提出双椭流线型管线拖曳力系数和升力系数的计算公式,为海底管线的减灾工程提供了新的思路。

Modelling of submarine landslides of rock and soil

Landslides and their hydraulic effects are studied by numerical and experimental means. A two-dimensional model based on Navier–Stokes equations has been developed considering the sediments and water as a mixture. A Bingham law written in effective stress and an erosion–diffusion law at the water–sediment interface have been introduced into the model. Laboratory experiments consisting in the sliding of a block, a coarse gravel and a fine sand have been carried out. The results are compared with the numerical model. These experiments show the importance of sediment rheology and interstitial pressure in slide velocity and water wave generation. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
