Untersuchung des Temperaturverhaltens einer Rohoelpipeline Schlussbericht

A locally distributed temperature model was developed for a pipeline for the purpose of improved leak detection, with particular regard to the pressure difference method. The project comprised the following tasks: Development of a hydraulic and thermodynamic model taking into account all important phenomena of physical heat transfer along a crude oil pipeline; Simulations to verify a simplified model on the basis of measured temperature profiles; Measurement of temperature profiles using fibre optical sensors along the telecommunication glass fibre cable of the Central European Crude Oil Pipeline (Mitteleuropaeische Rohoelpipeline - MERO).SIGLEAvailable from TIB Hannover: F02B1731 / FIZ - Fachinformationszzentrum Karlsruhe / TIB - Technische InformationsbibliothekBundesministerium fuer Bildung und Forschung, Berlin (Germany)DEGerman
