In practical engineering pipeline vibration is often not caused by a single factor but by a combination of many factors A fluid-structure coupling method is proposed in this paper and used to study the vibration of the compressor pipeline under theinteraction of pipeline structure and airflow in it +e method is based on structured grids so that the displacements of grid nodescan be calculated accurately at each time step +e results of transient calculation show that when the given inlet mass flow rate isconstant and there is no other disturbance the pressure fluctuation and the vibration of pipeline structure will occur by usingfluid-structure coupling and the vibration frequencies are consistent with the third- and fifth-order structural natural frequenciesMoreover the higher the pressure in the pipe the greater the fluid-structure coupling vibration In addition the fluid-structurecoupling vibration not only occurs in the studied pipeline but also propagates to distant downstream pipeline Comparing theabove results with experimental results it is found that the results of fluid-structure coupling calculation are in agreement with theactual situation which shows that the method is reasonable and reliable and can be applied to engineering
1 Introduction
Compressor pipeline vibration is a hidden danger thatcannot be ignored for safe production of factories Strongpipeline vibration affects the normal operation of devicesand causes great harm Many studies have been done on thevibration of compressor pipeline +ey are mainly dividedinto three aspects
Firstly it is the study of airflow pulsation in the pipeline+e vibration of the compressor pipeline encountered inproduction is mostly caused by air pulsation especially inreciprocating compressor Reciprocating compressor ischaracterized by intermittent and periodic suction andexhaust and thus it will stimulate the inlet and outlet of thepipeline to produce intense air pulsation which has a seriousimpact on the performance and work Only by thoroughlystudying the mechanism of airflow pulsation establishing areasonable analysis model of airflow pulsation accuratelypredicting the airflow pulsation in the compressor pipeline
system and reasonably designing the structural parametersof the pipeline can the airflow pulsation and its influence becontrolled in the minimum range Skudrzyk [1] in order tostudy the fluid characteristics in the pipeline used the planewave theory to study the dynamic characteristics of the gascolumn Hayama et al [2] revised the assumption of planewave theory of pipeline in resonance zone which greatlyreduced the relative error of the revised calculation resultsand basically met the design requirements of practical en-gineering Maclaren et al [3] considering environmentalfactors proposed conservative and characteristic equationswith more perfect mathematical models and more accuratecalculation methods which were suitable for one-di-mensional unsteady flow andmore close to the actual flow ofgas in the pipeline Durant et al [4] carried out vibrationmeasurement induced by airflow in a straight pipe andobtained the spectral density curve of air pulsation at dif-ferent Mach numbers the velocity spectral density of vi-bration and the sound pressure value radiated outward In

addition the API Standard 618 of American PetroleumInstitute specifies the design criteria of gas flow pulsationand pipeline vibration for reciprocating compressors used inthe petrochemical industry
Secondly the dynamic characteristics and dynamic re-sponses of pipeline structures are analyzed and studiedPractice shows that even though the airflow fluctuation inthe pipeline has been controlled within a very small rangemechanical resonance can still be caused by the un-reasonable design of the pipeline structure resulting instrong vibration of the pipeline +erefore the structuraldynamic characteristics of the pipeline must be carefullystudied Paıdoussis and Issid [5] regarded the pipeline as abeam model and derived the motion equation Afterconsidering the pipeline as a beam model Rayleignmethod Dunkerley method Ritz method and Galerkinmethod can be used to solve the low-order structuralnatural frequencies of simple pipeline For pipelines withcomplex spatial structures the low-order structural naturalfrequencies can be solved by the finite element methodtransfer matrix method and impedance analysis method[6] Irie et al [7] used the Timshenko beam model to derivethe transfer matrix method for vibration and stability ofconveying fluid pipeline Lesmez et al [8] had done pio-neering work on the transfer matrix method for vibrationof the space pipeline system In the process of derivationthe method of separating variables is used and the ei-genvalue is included in the final characteristic matrix of thepipeline system
Finally the fluid-structure coupling vibration of thepipeline is studied +e fluid flow in the pipeline will lead tothe vibration of the pipeline structure and the vibration ofthe pipeline structure will in turn affect the motion state ofthe fluid in the pipeline +erefore coupling vibrationbetween fluid and structure is produced in the pipeline+efluid-structure coupling vibration has a great impact on thedynamic characteristics of the pipeline Wiggert et al[9 10] established 4-equation model and 14-equationmodel for the study of fluid-structure interaction vibrationof straight pipes Erath et al [11] studied the effect of waterhammer with fluid-structure interaction on the vibrationresponse and characteristics of pipe systems Tijsseling andLavooij [12] used the characteristic line method to analyzethe dynamic response of the pipeline system under theaction of the water hammer +e characteristic line methodis suitable for the simple pipeline system However for thecomplex pipeline system the finite element method hashigh accuracy and efficiency Sreejith et al [13] used thefinite element method to analyze the fluid-structure cou-pling dynamic response of pipeline under variable velocityPittard et al [14] used FLUENTsoftware to establish a largeeddy model and studied the influence of fluid pressurefluctuation on pipeline vibration characteristics Menteret al [15] used ANSYS MFX fluid-structure multiphysicalfield coupling scheme based on elastic dynamic meshdeformation technology to calculate the finite length elastictube +e calculated vibration pattern and the discharge ofthe lagging vortices of the elastic tube agreed well with the
theoretical structure In addition many experiments havebeen carried out to revise and validate the fluid-structurecoupling theory Vardy et al [16ndash18] studied the coupledvibration of branched pipes valves 90 degree curved pipesand single-elbow pipe systems by means of experimentsZiada et al [19] carried out an experimental comparativestudy on the fluid-acoustic coupling theory of T-shapedpipes Duan et al [20] used experiments to study Y-shapedpipes similar to T-shaped pipes found the gas-solid two-phase flow law in this type of pipes and obtained valuableexperimental data
+e purpose of this paper is to study the vibration of thecompressor pipeline under the interaction of pipelinestructure and airflow by using a proposed fluid-structurecoupling method and then to verify the effectiveness of thismethod by comparing with experimental results
2 Fluid-Structure Coupling Method
To simulate the transient calculation of pipeline vibration afluid-structure coupling method combining three-di-mensional transient flow field simulation with structuraldynamic calculation is proposed Transient flow field sim-ulation is solved with the mesh movement method +emotion equation used in structural dynamic calculationadopts the modal order reduction method +e data ex-change between fluid dynamics and structural dynamics isrealized by data files which makes quasicoupling calculationpossible +e fluid-structure coupling is described by theweak coupling method +is means that the fluid andstructural equations are computed in every time step andthe data transferred at the fluid-structural interface are usedas the boundary condition of the two domains One ad-vantage of the weak coupling method is to make full use ofthe mature computational fluid dynamics (CFD) softwarewithout rewriting the code +e flow chart of fluid-structurecoupling transient calculation for pipeline vibration isshown in Figure 1
+e transient flow field of pipeline is simulated byFLUENT software +e fluid forces are obtained by in-tegrating the fluid pressures through the application of user-defined function (UDF) With the fluid boundary conditiontransferred to a data file the displacement is obtained bysolving the motion equation After the structural boundarycondition is transferred to the data file the CFD code is thenapplied to update the grid position based on the proposedmesh movement method +is iterative procedure is re-peated until the vibration curve is stable
21 Modal Order Reduction Modal order reduction is toreplace the original complex high-order systemmodel with alow-order model which can maintain the main character-istics of the original system It is required that the results ofthe low-order model can be close to those of the originalsystem

222 Fluid Region Division +e pipeline system includes astraight pipe tee junction and elbow +eir mesh sizes aredifferent and the rules of mesh node movement are alsodifferent Based on the above considerations the fluid regionis divided into six parts which are shown in Figure 4 +eseparts are numbered 0sim6
223 Grid Motion Figure 5 shows the XY plane of region1 Node K represents the initial position of any node inregion 1 and node Kprime represents the current position ofnode K after the grid moves Region 1 is regarded as aslender beam and its cross section remains flat after de-formation In the initial state the cross section number ofeach node in region 1 is given and the calculation ofcumulative displacement of each node is set up when thegrid moves In the current state the coordinates of node Kprimeare read and the coordinates of the initial position K arecalculated according to the accumulated displacement+en the number of the cross sections is queried by thecoordinates and the displacement corresponding to the nexttime step is allocated to node Kprime to complete the update of
the motion +e grid motion algorithm developed for region1 applies to region 3 region 4 and region 6
Region 2 can be considered as a rigid body and all itsnodes move with the center node as a whole
Region 5 is divided into several subdomains Figure 6shows the XY plane of region 5 Node P represents theinitial position of any node in region 5 and node Pprimerepresents the current position of node P after the gridmoves In the initial state the coordinates of the center of thecircle O are recorded the cross section of each node in theregion 5 is numbered and the calculation of the cumulativedisplacement of each node is set up when the grid moves Inthe current state the coordinates of the center of the circleOprimeare calculated according to the cumulative displacementRead the coordinates of node Pprime calculate its azimuth angleαprime and judge its cross section number according to theazimuth angle +en the cumulative displacement is in-quired according to the number and the coordinates of theinitial position P are obtained +en the initial azimuthangle α of the node is calculated by using the coordinates ofnode P and center O and the initial cross section numberand corresponding displacement of the next time step areobtained +e displacement is allocated to node Pprime to updatethe motion
224 Mesh Updating Process +e process of mesh updatingat the current time requires the following steps
(1) +e coordinates of all nodes and their cross sectionnumbers in the initial state are stored and the cal-culation of cumulative displacement of each node isset up
(2) All subregions mentioned in Section 222 areaccessed in turn ensuring that all grid nodes in thefluid region are looped over +e coordinates of thenodes will be compared with the results in step (1) todetermine the position of the nodes the next time

During the mesh updating process the total number andtopological relationship of the grid nodes remain un-changed After all nodes are looped over at the current timetheir coordinates are all known and can be calculated ac-curately at the next time+erefore mesh updating moves inan orderly and controllable direction Even after tens ofthousands of times of movement the mesh after updatingcan still maintain high quality thus ensuring the smoothoperation of transient flow field calculation

+e corresponding first five order mode shapes areshown in Figure 8 +e first- and fourth-order mode shapesare on the YZ plane and the second third and fifth-ordermode shapes are on the XY plane
Based on the fluid-structure coupling method of pipelinevibration mentioned in this paper the transient calculationunder these seven cases is carried out respectively +ecalculation results of MP4 in Case 5 are shown in Figure 9From Figure 9(a) it can be seen that the pressure oscillationis maintained +is is due to fluid-structure coupling Wheninitializing the given initial condition is not the value of thesteady state so there will be a transient response process Inthis process the pressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipewill lead to the vibration of the pipeline structure and thevibration of the pipeline structure will in turn affect the
motion of the fluid in the pipe +is results in a continuousexcitation in which the vibration of some frequency com-ponents (Figure 9(c)) is stimulated +erefore the pressureoscillation can be maintained in the final steady state As canbe seen from Figure 9(b) there are three frequency com-ponents 825Hz 170Hz and 285Hz However fromFigure 9(c) it can be seen that as time goes on the frequencyof 825Hz is attenuated and finally only two frequencycomponents are consistent with the third- and fifth-orderstructural natural frequencies of Case 5 +is is because thevibration displacement direction of the two structural nat-ural frequencies coincides with the direction of the forceformed by the pressure wave on the pipe wall thus stim-ulating the vibration of the pipe
It is noteworthy that the vibration displacement di-rection of the second-order structural natural frequency isalso the same as the direction of the force formed by thepressure wave but it is not stimulated in Figure 9(b) Inorder to study this phenomenon the pressure difference ofthe branch pipe in X and Y directions is calculated re-spectively As can be seen from Figure 10 the pressuredifference in the y direction is much larger than that in the xdirection Moreover as can be seen from Figure 8 the vi-bration of the second-order structural natural frequency is inthe x direction of the branch pipe the vibration of the third-order structural natural frequency is mainly in the y di-rection of the main pipe and a little in the y-direction of thebranch pipe and the vibration of the fifth-order structuralnatural frequency is mainly in the y-direction of the branch

+e analysis process of other cases is the same as aboveIn order to avoid redundancy the figures of their calculationresults are no longer presented in the paper Table 2 showsthe peak-peak value and main frequency components ofpipeline vibration in these seven cases under fluid-structureinteraction It can be seen from the table that in any case thefrequency components of pipeline vibration are consistentwith the third- and fifth-order structural natural frequenciesAlthough the first-order structural natural frequency isgenerally considered to be the easiest to be stimulated it isnot excited after steady state because the resultant force ofpressure wave acting on the z-direction of the pipe wall is 0In addition when the vibration frequency is close to theplane wave acoustic frequency the amplitude of the
vibration increases and when the vibration frequency is faraway from the plane wave acoustic frequency the amplitudeof the vibration decreases significantly
33 Effect of Different Pressures in Pipe In order to study theeffect of pressure on pipeline vibration under fluid-structureinteraction the vibration of pipeline was calculated underfour different pressures +e results are shown in Figure 11It can be seen from the figure that the greater the pressure inthe pipe the more vibration the pipe will be arousedMoreover in the case of nonresonance stable inlet flow andno external disturbance this phenomenon also occurs +ereason is that when the pressure wave encounters the closedbranch it will produce a great impact force which will leadto strong vibration of the pipeline structure

41 Determination of Structural Natural Frequencies Anexcitation test was carried out to determine structuralnatural frequencies of the pipeline A force hammer is usedto strike the pipeline quickly which is equivalent to a pulseexcitation to the pipeline structure Although the magnitudeand duration of the excitation are unknown it does notaffect the acquisition of structural natural frequencies +eycan be obtained by spectrum analysis of the measured vi-bration signals under excitation +e time-domain wave-form of MP1 under excitation is shown in Figure 14(a) andthe corresponding spectrum is shown in Figure 14(b) It canbe seen from the spectrum that there is a strongly dominantfrequency of 151Hz which is a certain order structuralnatural frequency Using the same method excitation testswere also carried out at other measuring points In order toavoid redundancy the figures of excitation test results atother measuring points are no longer given in the paperTable 3 shows the structural natural frequencies measured atall measuring points As can be seen from Table 3 the firstfive structural natural frequencies of the pipeline system are46Hz 84Hz 151Hz 214Hz and 259Hz respectively

Figure 15 shows the time-domain waveform and spec-trum of MP4 at a pressure of 02MPa As can be seen fromFigure 15(b) the main frequency components are 165Hzand 249Hz By comparing them with the structural naturalfrequencies described in Section 41 it can be seen that theyare consistent with the third- and fifth-order structuralnatural frequencies In addition by comparing the timehistories of experimental measurement and numerical cal-culation it can be seen that Figure 9(a) has a transientresponse process while Figure 15(a) does not +e reasonsare as follows In numerical calculation the initial conditiongiven for initialization is not the value of the steady state sothere will be a transient response process In this process thepressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipe will lead to thevibration of the pipeline structure and the vibration of thepipeline structure will in turn affect themotion of the fluid inthe pipe Vibration that is inconsistent with the direction of

10 Shock and Vibration
the force generated by the pressure wave will attenuate to 0and vibration that is consistent with the direction of theforce generated by the pressure wave will maintain and tendto oscillate stably However in the experiment the vibrationmeasurement is carried out after the compressor is openedand operated for a period of time so there is no transientprocess +e steady-state experiment is similar to the steady-state oscillation process after 3 seconds in Figure 9(a) Itshould be noted that the experiment results also containnoise signals +is steady-state oscillation process also needsto be solved by the transient solution method +e purposeof this paper is to study the fluid-structure coupling vi-bration of the pipeline under steady oscillatory state+erefore by comparing the experimental results with thenumerical results under steady oscillatory state it can beseen that the vibration frequencies are consistent with thethird- and fifth-order structural natural frequencies
Table 4 shows the peak-peak value and main frequencycomponents of MP4 under different pressures It can be seenfrom the table that no matter how much pipe pressure is thefrequencies of pipeline vibration are the structural naturalfrequencies which is consistent with the results of numericalcalculation in Section 32 Furthermore the higher the pipepressure the greater the vibration which is in agreementwith the results of numerical calculation in Section 33 +esame conclusions are reached at other measuring points
5 Conclusions
(1) +e fluid-structure coupling method proposed isreasonable and reliable by comparing numericalresults with experimental results and can be appliedto engineering
(2) +rough the fluid-structure coupling calculation it isfound that the pressure fluctuation and the vibrationof pipeline structure will occur when the inlet flow isstable and there is no external disturbance +e vi-bration frequencies are consistent with the third- andfifth-order structural natural frequencies and thefirst-order structural natural frequency is not exciteddue to the direction of force
(3) +e higher the pressure in the pipe the greater thefluid-structure coupling vibration It is useless to addaccumulators in the high-pressure pipeline Al-though the inlet flow is steady there will still bevibration in the pipeline
(4) +e fluid-structure coupling vibration not only oc-curs in the studied pipeline but also propagates todistant downstream pipeline When there are teejunctions elbows and closed valves it will form anexciting force in a certain direction to stimulate thevibration there

Secondly the dynamic characteristics and dynamic re-sponses of pipeline structures are analyzed and studiedPractice shows that even though the airflow fluctuation inthe pipeline has been controlled within a very small rangemechanical resonance can still be caused by the un-reasonable design of the pipeline structure resulting instrong vibration of the pipeline +erefore the structuraldynamic characteristics of the pipeline must be carefullystudied Paıdoussis and Issid [5] regarded the pipeline as abeam model and derived the motion equation Afterconsidering the pipeline as a beam model Rayleignmethod Dunkerley method Ritz method and Galerkinmethod can be used to solve the low-order structuralnatural frequencies of simple pipeline For pipelines withcomplex spatial structures the low-order structural naturalfrequencies can be solved by the finite element methodtransfer matrix method and impedance analysis method[6] Irie et al [7] used the Timshenko beam model to derivethe transfer matrix method for vibration and stability ofconveying fluid pipeline Lesmez et al [8] had done pio-neering work on the transfer matrix method for vibrationof the space pipeline system In the process of derivationthe method of separating variables is used and the ei-genvalue is included in the final characteristic matrix of thepipeline system
Finally the fluid-structure coupling vibration of thepipeline is studied +e fluid flow in the pipeline will lead tothe vibration of the pipeline structure and the vibration ofthe pipeline structure will in turn affect the motion state ofthe fluid in the pipeline +erefore coupling vibrationbetween fluid and structure is produced in the pipeline+efluid-structure coupling vibration has a great impact on thedynamic characteristics of the pipeline Wiggert et al[9 10] established 4-equation model and 14-equationmodel for the study of fluid-structure interaction vibrationof straight pipes Erath et al [11] studied the effect of waterhammer with fluid-structure interaction on the vibrationresponse and characteristics of pipe systems Tijsseling andLavooij [12] used the characteristic line method to analyzethe dynamic response of the pipeline system under theaction of the water hammer +e characteristic line methodis suitable for the simple pipeline system However for thecomplex pipeline system the finite element method hashigh accuracy and efficiency Sreejith et al [13] used thefinite element method to analyze the fluid-structure cou-pling dynamic response of pipeline under variable velocityPittard et al [14] used FLUENTsoftware to establish a largeeddy model and studied the influence of fluid pressurefluctuation on pipeline vibration characteristics Menteret al [15] used ANSYS MFX fluid-structure multiphysicalfield coupling scheme based on elastic dynamic meshdeformation technology to calculate the finite length elastictube +e calculated vibration pattern and the discharge ofthe lagging vortices of the elastic tube agreed well with the

2 Fluid-Structure Coupling Method
To simulate the transient calculation of pipeline vibration afluid-structure coupling method combining three-di-mensional transient flow field simulation with structuraldynamic calculation is proposed Transient flow field sim-ulation is solved with the mesh movement method +emotion equation used in structural dynamic calculationadopts the modal order reduction method +e data ex-change between fluid dynamics and structural dynamics isrealized by data files which makes quasicoupling calculationpossible +e fluid-structure coupling is described by theweak coupling method +is means that the fluid andstructural equations are computed in every time step andthe data transferred at the fluid-structural interface are usedas the boundary condition of the two domains One ad-vantage of the weak coupling method is to make full use ofthe mature computational fluid dynamics (CFD) softwarewithout rewriting the code +e flow chart of fluid-structurecoupling transient calculation for pipeline vibration isshown in Figure 1
+e transient flow field of pipeline is simulated byFLUENT software +e fluid forces are obtained by in-tegrating the fluid pressures through the application of user-defined function (UDF) With the fluid boundary conditiontransferred to a data file the displacement is obtained bysolving the motion equation After the structural boundarycondition is transferred to the data file the CFD code is thenapplied to update the grid position based on the proposedmesh movement method +is iterative procedure is re-peated until the vibration curve is stable

During the mesh updating process the total number andtopological relationship of the grid nodes remain un-changed After all nodes are looped over at the current timetheir coordinates are all known and can be calculated ac-curately at the next time+erefore mesh updating moves inan orderly and controllable direction Even after tens ofthousands of times of movement the mesh after updatingcan still maintain high quality thus ensuring the smoothoperation of transient flow field calculation

32 Interaction between Structural Natural Frequency andPlane Wave Acoustic Frequency To study the interactionbetween structure natural frequencies and plane waveacoustic frequencies of the pipeline seven cases are selectedIn these seven cases only the values of modulus of elasticityhave been changed to ensure that their mode shapes are thesame which is convenient for the following study +estructural natural frequencies of these seven cases are listedin Table 1 +e reasons for choosing these seven cases are asfollows Firstly the acoustic frequencies of the pipeline areobtained by the pulse excitation method +en Case 5 is

+e corresponding first five order mode shapes areshown in Figure 8 +e first- and fourth-order mode shapesare on the YZ plane and the second third and fifth-ordermode shapes are on the XY plane
Based on the fluid-structure coupling method of pipelinevibration mentioned in this paper the transient calculationunder these seven cases is carried out respectively +ecalculation results of MP4 in Case 5 are shown in Figure 9From Figure 9(a) it can be seen that the pressure oscillationis maintained +is is due to fluid-structure coupling Wheninitializing the given initial condition is not the value of thesteady state so there will be a transient response process Inthis process the pressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipewill lead to the vibration of the pipeline structure and thevibration of the pipeline structure will in turn affect the
motion of the fluid in the pipe +is results in a continuousexcitation in which the vibration of some frequency com-ponents (Figure 9(c)) is stimulated +erefore the pressureoscillation can be maintained in the final steady state As canbe seen from Figure 9(b) there are three frequency com-ponents 825Hz 170Hz and 285Hz However fromFigure 9(c) it can be seen that as time goes on the frequencyof 825Hz is attenuated and finally only two frequencycomponents are consistent with the third- and fifth-orderstructural natural frequencies of Case 5 +is is because thevibration displacement direction of the two structural nat-ural frequencies coincides with the direction of the forceformed by the pressure wave on the pipe wall thus stim-ulating the vibration of the pipe
It is noteworthy that the vibration displacement di-rection of the second-order structural natural frequency isalso the same as the direction of the force formed by thepressure wave but it is not stimulated in Figure 9(b) Inorder to study this phenomenon the pressure difference ofthe branch pipe in X and Y directions is calculated re-spectively As can be seen from Figure 10 the pressuredifference in the y direction is much larger than that in the xdirection Moreover as can be seen from Figure 8 the vi-bration of the second-order structural natural frequency is inthe x direction of the branch pipe the vibration of the third-order structural natural frequency is mainly in the y di-rection of the main pipe and a little in the y-direction of thebranch pipe and the vibration of the fifth-order structuralnatural frequency is mainly in the y-direction of the branch

pipe +erefore the vibration of the fifth-order structuralnatural frequency is larger
+e analysis process of other cases is the same as aboveIn order to avoid redundancy the figures of their calculationresults are no longer presented in the paper Table 2 showsthe peak-peak value and main frequency components ofpipeline vibration in these seven cases under fluid-structureinteraction It can be seen from the table that in any case thefrequency components of pipeline vibration are consistentwith the third- and fifth-order structural natural frequenciesAlthough the first-order structural natural frequency isgenerally considered to be the easiest to be stimulated it isnot excited after steady state because the resultant force ofpressure wave acting on the z-direction of the pipe wall is 0In addition when the vibration frequency is close to theplane wave acoustic frequency the amplitude of the
vibration increases and when the vibration frequency is faraway from the plane wave acoustic frequency the amplitudeof the vibration decreases significantly
33 Effect of Different Pressures in Pipe In order to study theeffect of pressure on pipeline vibration under fluid-structureinteraction the vibration of pipeline was calculated underfour different pressures +e results are shown in Figure 11It can be seen from the figure that the greater the pressure inthe pipe the more vibration the pipe will be arousedMoreover in the case of nonresonance stable inlet flow andno external disturbance this phenomenon also occurs +ereason is that when the pressure wave encounters the closedbranch it will produce a great impact force which will leadto strong vibration of the pipeline structure

4 Experimental Results
Vibration velocity sensors and pressure sensors werearranged in the measuring pipeline and the measuringpoints are shown in Figure 3 Vibration signals from thevibration velocity sensors and pressure signals from thepressure sensors were recorded on PC data acquisitionsoftware by using a data acquisition board +e schematic ofmeasuring system is shown in Figure 13 +e samplingfrequency was 1000Hz and the sampling time was 8 s +etime-domain data were transformed into the frequency-domain data by fast-Fourier transform (FFT)
41 Determination of Structural Natural Frequencies Anexcitation test was carried out to determine structuralnatural frequencies of the pipeline A force hammer is usedto strike the pipeline quickly which is equivalent to a pulseexcitation to the pipeline structure Although the magnitudeand duration of the excitation are unknown it does notaffect the acquisition of structural natural frequencies +eycan be obtained by spectrum analysis of the measured vi-bration signals under excitation +e time-domain wave-form of MP1 under excitation is shown in Figure 14(a) andthe corresponding spectrum is shown in Figure 14(b) It canbe seen from the spectrum that there is a strongly dominantfrequency of 151Hz which is a certain order structuralnatural frequency Using the same method excitation testswere also carried out at other measuring points In order toavoid redundancy the figures of excitation test results atother measuring points are no longer given in the paperTable 3 shows the structural natural frequencies measured atall measuring points As can be seen from Table 3 the firstfive structural natural frequencies of the pipeline system are46Hz 84Hz 151Hz 214Hz and 259Hz respectively
42 Vibration Comparison under Different PressuresVibration measurements under six different pipeline pres-sures were carried out +e six kinds of pipeline pressure are01MPa 02MPa 03MPa 04MPa 05MPa and 056MParespectively Vibration data are obtained and analyzed ateach measuring point under each kind of pipeline pressure
Figure 15 shows the time-domain waveform and spec-trum of MP4 at a pressure of 02MPa As can be seen fromFigure 15(b) the main frequency components are 165Hzand 249Hz By comparing them with the structural naturalfrequencies described in Section 41 it can be seen that theyare consistent with the third- and fifth-order structuralnatural frequencies In addition by comparing the timehistories of experimental measurement and numerical cal-culation it can be seen that Figure 9(a) has a transientresponse process while Figure 15(a) does not +e reasonsare as follows In numerical calculation the initial conditiongiven for initialization is not the value of the steady state sothere will be a transient response process In this process thepressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipe will lead to thevibration of the pipeline structure and the vibration of thepipeline structure will in turn affect themotion of the fluid inthe pipe Vibration that is inconsistent with the direction of

the force generated by the pressure wave will attenuate to 0and vibration that is consistent with the direction of theforce generated by the pressure wave will maintain and tendto oscillate stably However in the experiment the vibrationmeasurement is carried out after the compressor is openedand operated for a period of time so there is no transientprocess +e steady-state experiment is similar to the steady-state oscillation process after 3 seconds in Figure 9(a) Itshould be noted that the experiment results also containnoise signals +is steady-state oscillation process also needsto be solved by the transient solution method +e purposeof this paper is to study the fluid-structure coupling vi-bration of the pipeline under steady oscillatory state+erefore by comparing the experimental results with thenumerical results under steady oscillatory state it can beseen that the vibration frequencies are consistent with thethird- and fifth-order structural natural frequencies
Table 4 shows the peak-peak value and main frequencycomponents of MP4 under different pressures It can be seenfrom the table that no matter how much pipe pressure is thefrequencies of pipeline vibration are the structural naturalfrequencies which is consistent with the results of numericalcalculation in Section 32 Furthermore the higher the pipepressure the greater the vibration which is in agreementwith the results of numerical calculation in Section 33 +esame conclusions are reached at other measuring points
5 Conclusions
(1) +e fluid-structure coupling method proposed isreasonable and reliable by comparing numericalresults with experimental results and can be appliedto engineering
(2) +rough the fluid-structure coupling calculation it isfound that the pressure fluctuation and the vibrationof pipeline structure will occur when the inlet flow isstable and there is no external disturbance +e vi-bration frequencies are consistent with the third- andfifth-order structural natural frequencies and thefirst-order structural natural frequency is not exciteddue to the direction of force
(3) +e higher the pressure in the pipe the greater thefluid-structure coupling vibration It is useless to addaccumulators in the high-pressure pipeline Al-though the inlet flow is steady there will still bevibration in the pipeline
(4) +e fluid-structure coupling vibration not only oc-curs in the studied pipeline but also propagates todistant downstream pipeline When there are teejunctions elbows and closed valves it will form anexciting force in a certain direction to stimulate thevibration there

222 Fluid Region Division +e pipeline system includes astraight pipe tee junction and elbow +eir mesh sizes aredifferent and the rules of mesh node movement are alsodifferent Based on the above considerations the fluid regionis divided into six parts which are shown in Figure 4 +eseparts are numbered 0sim6
223 Grid Motion Figure 5 shows the XY plane of region1 Node K represents the initial position of any node inregion 1 and node Kprime represents the current position ofnode K after the grid moves Region 1 is regarded as aslender beam and its cross section remains flat after de-formation In the initial state the cross section number ofeach node in region 1 is given and the calculation ofcumulative displacement of each node is set up when thegrid moves In the current state the coordinates of node Kprimeare read and the coordinates of the initial position K arecalculated according to the accumulated displacement+en the number of the cross sections is queried by thecoordinates and the displacement corresponding to the nexttime step is allocated to node Kprime to complete the update of
the motion +e grid motion algorithm developed for region1 applies to region 3 region 4 and region 6
Region 2 can be considered as a rigid body and all itsnodes move with the center node as a whole
Region 5 is divided into several subdomains Figure 6shows the XY plane of region 5 Node P represents theinitial position of any node in region 5 and node Pprimerepresents the current position of node P after the gridmoves In the initial state the coordinates of the center of thecircle O are recorded the cross section of each node in theregion 5 is numbered and the calculation of the cumulativedisplacement of each node is set up when the grid moves Inthe current state the coordinates of the center of the circleOprimeare calculated according to the cumulative displacementRead the coordinates of node Pprime calculate its azimuth angleαprime and judge its cross section number according to theazimuth angle +en the cumulative displacement is in-quired according to the number and the coordinates of theinitial position P are obtained +en the initial azimuthangle α of the node is calculated by using the coordinates ofnode P and center O and the initial cross section numberand corresponding displacement of the next time step areobtained +e displacement is allocated to node Pprime to updatethe motion
224 Mesh Updating Process +e process of mesh updatingat the current time requires the following steps
(1) +e coordinates of all nodes and their cross sectionnumbers in the initial state are stored and the cal-culation of cumulative displacement of each node isset up
(2) All subregions mentioned in Section 222 areaccessed in turn ensuring that all grid nodes in thefluid region are looped over +e coordinates of thenodes will be compared with the results in step (1) todetermine the position of the nodes the next time

During the mesh updating process the total number andtopological relationship of the grid nodes remain un-changed After all nodes are looped over at the current timetheir coordinates are all known and can be calculated ac-curately at the next time+erefore mesh updating moves inan orderly and controllable direction Even after tens ofthousands of times of movement the mesh after updatingcan still maintain high quality thus ensuring the smoothoperation of transient flow field calculation

+e corresponding first five order mode shapes areshown in Figure 8 +e first- and fourth-order mode shapesare on the YZ plane and the second third and fifth-ordermode shapes are on the XY plane
Based on the fluid-structure coupling method of pipelinevibration mentioned in this paper the transient calculationunder these seven cases is carried out respectively +ecalculation results of MP4 in Case 5 are shown in Figure 9From Figure 9(a) it can be seen that the pressure oscillationis maintained +is is due to fluid-structure coupling Wheninitializing the given initial condition is not the value of thesteady state so there will be a transient response process Inthis process the pressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipewill lead to the vibration of the pipeline structure and thevibration of the pipeline structure will in turn affect the
motion of the fluid in the pipe +is results in a continuousexcitation in which the vibration of some frequency com-ponents (Figure 9(c)) is stimulated +erefore the pressureoscillation can be maintained in the final steady state As canbe seen from Figure 9(b) there are three frequency com-ponents 825Hz 170Hz and 285Hz However fromFigure 9(c) it can be seen that as time goes on the frequencyof 825Hz is attenuated and finally only two frequencycomponents are consistent with the third- and fifth-orderstructural natural frequencies of Case 5 +is is because thevibration displacement direction of the two structural nat-ural frequencies coincides with the direction of the forceformed by the pressure wave on the pipe wall thus stim-ulating the vibration of the pipe
It is noteworthy that the vibration displacement di-rection of the second-order structural natural frequency isalso the same as the direction of the force formed by thepressure wave but it is not stimulated in Figure 9(b) Inorder to study this phenomenon the pressure difference ofthe branch pipe in X and Y directions is calculated re-spectively As can be seen from Figure 10 the pressuredifference in the y direction is much larger than that in the xdirection Moreover as can be seen from Figure 8 the vi-bration of the second-order structural natural frequency is inthe x direction of the branch pipe the vibration of the third-order structural natural frequency is mainly in the y di-rection of the main pipe and a little in the y-direction of thebranch pipe and the vibration of the fifth-order structuralnatural frequency is mainly in the y-direction of the branch

+e analysis process of other cases is the same as aboveIn order to avoid redundancy the figures of their calculationresults are no longer presented in the paper Table 2 showsthe peak-peak value and main frequency components ofpipeline vibration in these seven cases under fluid-structureinteraction It can be seen from the table that in any case thefrequency components of pipeline vibration are consistentwith the third- and fifth-order structural natural frequenciesAlthough the first-order structural natural frequency isgenerally considered to be the easiest to be stimulated it isnot excited after steady state because the resultant force ofpressure wave acting on the z-direction of the pipe wall is 0In addition when the vibration frequency is close to theplane wave acoustic frequency the amplitude of the
vibration increases and when the vibration frequency is faraway from the plane wave acoustic frequency the amplitudeof the vibration decreases significantly
33 Effect of Different Pressures in Pipe In order to study theeffect of pressure on pipeline vibration under fluid-structureinteraction the vibration of pipeline was calculated underfour different pressures +e results are shown in Figure 11It can be seen from the figure that the greater the pressure inthe pipe the more vibration the pipe will be arousedMoreover in the case of nonresonance stable inlet flow andno external disturbance this phenomenon also occurs +ereason is that when the pressure wave encounters the closedbranch it will produce a great impact force which will leadto strong vibration of the pipeline structure

41 Determination of Structural Natural Frequencies Anexcitation test was carried out to determine structuralnatural frequencies of the pipeline A force hammer is usedto strike the pipeline quickly which is equivalent to a pulseexcitation to the pipeline structure Although the magnitudeand duration of the excitation are unknown it does notaffect the acquisition of structural natural frequencies +eycan be obtained by spectrum analysis of the measured vi-bration signals under excitation +e time-domain wave-form of MP1 under excitation is shown in Figure 14(a) andthe corresponding spectrum is shown in Figure 14(b) It canbe seen from the spectrum that there is a strongly dominantfrequency of 151Hz which is a certain order structuralnatural frequency Using the same method excitation testswere also carried out at other measuring points In order toavoid redundancy the figures of excitation test results atother measuring points are no longer given in the paperTable 3 shows the structural natural frequencies measured atall measuring points As can be seen from Table 3 the firstfive structural natural frequencies of the pipeline system are46Hz 84Hz 151Hz 214Hz and 259Hz respectively

Figure 15 shows the time-domain waveform and spec-trum of MP4 at a pressure of 02MPa As can be seen fromFigure 15(b) the main frequency components are 165Hzand 249Hz By comparing them with the structural naturalfrequencies described in Section 41 it can be seen that theyare consistent with the third- and fifth-order structuralnatural frequencies In addition by comparing the timehistories of experimental measurement and numerical cal-culation it can be seen that Figure 9(a) has a transientresponse process while Figure 15(a) does not +e reasonsare as follows In numerical calculation the initial conditiongiven for initialization is not the value of the steady state sothere will be a transient response process In this process thepressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipe will lead to thevibration of the pipeline structure and the vibration of thepipeline structure will in turn affect themotion of the fluid inthe pipe Vibration that is inconsistent with the direction of

the force generated by the pressure wave will attenuate to 0and vibration that is consistent with the direction of theforce generated by the pressure wave will maintain and tendto oscillate stably However in the experiment the vibrationmeasurement is carried out after the compressor is openedand operated for a period of time so there is no transientprocess +e steady-state experiment is similar to the steady-state oscillation process after 3 seconds in Figure 9(a) Itshould be noted that the experiment results also containnoise signals +is steady-state oscillation process also needsto be solved by the transient solution method +e purposeof this paper is to study the fluid-structure coupling vi-bration of the pipeline under steady oscillatory state+erefore by comparing the experimental results with thenumerical results under steady oscillatory state it can beseen that the vibration frequencies are consistent with thethird- and fifth-order structural natural frequencies
Table 4 shows the peak-peak value and main frequencycomponents of MP4 under different pressures It can be seenfrom the table that no matter how much pipe pressure is thefrequencies of pipeline vibration are the structural naturalfrequencies which is consistent with the results of numericalcalculation in Section 32 Furthermore the higher the pipepressure the greater the vibration which is in agreementwith the results of numerical calculation in Section 33 +esame conclusions are reached at other measuring points
5 Conclusions
(1) +e fluid-structure coupling method proposed isreasonable and reliable by comparing numericalresults with experimental results and can be appliedto engineering
(2) +rough the fluid-structure coupling calculation it isfound that the pressure fluctuation and the vibrationof pipeline structure will occur when the inlet flow isstable and there is no external disturbance +e vi-bration frequencies are consistent with the third- andfifth-order structural natural frequencies and thefirst-order structural natural frequency is not exciteddue to the direction of force
(3) +e higher the pressure in the pipe the greater thefluid-structure coupling vibration It is useless to addaccumulators in the high-pressure pipeline Al-though the inlet flow is steady there will still bevibration in the pipeline
(4) +e fluid-structure coupling vibration not only oc-curs in the studied pipeline but also propagates todistant downstream pipeline When there are teejunctions elbows and closed valves it will form anexciting force in a certain direction to stimulate thevibration there

222 Fluid Region Division +e pipeline system includes astraight pipe tee junction and elbow +eir mesh sizes aredifferent and the rules of mesh node movement are alsodifferent Based on the above considerations the fluid regionis divided into six parts which are shown in Figure 4 +eseparts are numbered 0sim6
223 Grid Motion Figure 5 shows the XY plane of region1 Node K represents the initial position of any node inregion 1 and node Kprime represents the current position ofnode K after the grid moves Region 1 is regarded as aslender beam and its cross section remains flat after de-formation In the initial state the cross section number ofeach node in region 1 is given and the calculation ofcumulative displacement of each node is set up when thegrid moves In the current state the coordinates of node Kprimeare read and the coordinates of the initial position K arecalculated according to the accumulated displacement+en the number of the cross sections is queried by thecoordinates and the displacement corresponding to the nexttime step is allocated to node Kprime to complete the update of
the motion +e grid motion algorithm developed for region1 applies to region 3 region 4 and region 6
Region 2 can be considered as a rigid body and all itsnodes move with the center node as a whole
Region 5 is divided into several subdomains Figure 6shows the XY plane of region 5 Node P represents theinitial position of any node in region 5 and node Pprimerepresents the current position of node P after the gridmoves In the initial state the coordinates of the center of thecircle O are recorded the cross section of each node in theregion 5 is numbered and the calculation of the cumulativedisplacement of each node is set up when the grid moves Inthe current state the coordinates of the center of the circleOprimeare calculated according to the cumulative displacementRead the coordinates of node Pprime calculate its azimuth angleαprime and judge its cross section number according to theazimuth angle +en the cumulative displacement is in-quired according to the number and the coordinates of theinitial position P are obtained +en the initial azimuthangle α of the node is calculated by using the coordinates ofnode P and center O and the initial cross section numberand corresponding displacement of the next time step areobtained +e displacement is allocated to node Pprime to updatethe motion
224 Mesh Updating Process +e process of mesh updatingat the current time requires the following steps
(1) +e coordinates of all nodes and their cross sectionnumbers in the initial state are stored and the cal-culation of cumulative displacement of each node isset up
(2) All subregions mentioned in Section 222 areaccessed in turn ensuring that all grid nodes in thefluid region are looped over +e coordinates of thenodes will be compared with the results in step (1) todetermine the position of the nodes the next time
(3) +e displacement is calculated and assigned to thenode according to its position thus completing themotion updating

During the mesh updating process the total number andtopological relationship of the grid nodes remain un-changed After all nodes are looped over at the current timetheir coordinates are all known and can be calculated ac-curately at the next time+erefore mesh updating moves inan orderly and controllable direction Even after tens ofthousands of times of movement the mesh after updatingcan still maintain high quality thus ensuring the smoothoperation of transient flow field calculation

31 Determination of Plane Wave Acoustic Frequency Apulse excitation test was carried out to determine the planewave acoustic frequencies of the pipeline +e magnitudeand duration of the pulse excitation are as follows from001 s to 002 s the mass flow rate is 04 kgs at other timesthe mass flow rate is 02 kgs+e test was completed withoutfluid-structure coupling and the fluid domain remainedstationary +e code of pulse excitation was imported intothe inlet boundary condition through UDF +e time-do-main waveform under excitation is shown in Figure 7(a)and the corresponding spectrum is shown in Figure 7(b)Figure 7(a) is a decaying pulse response curve Damping iscaused by flow resistance and friction between gas mole-cules It can be seen from the spectrum that the first threeacoustic frequencies of plane wave are 825Hz 275Hz and330Hz respectively
32 Interaction between Structural Natural Frequency andPlane Wave Acoustic Frequency To study the interactionbetween structure natural frequencies and plane waveacoustic frequencies of the pipeline seven cases are selectedIn these seven cases only the values of modulus of elasticityhave been changed to ensure that their mode shapes are thesame which is convenient for the following study +estructural natural frequencies of these seven cases are listedin Table 1 +e reasons for choosing these seven cases are asfollows Firstly the acoustic frequencies of the pipeline areobtained by the pulse excitation method +en Case 5 is

+e corresponding first five order mode shapes areshown in Figure 8 +e first- and fourth-order mode shapesare on the YZ plane and the second third and fifth-ordermode shapes are on the XY plane
Based on the fluid-structure coupling method of pipelinevibration mentioned in this paper the transient calculationunder these seven cases is carried out respectively +ecalculation results of MP4 in Case 5 are shown in Figure 9From Figure 9(a) it can be seen that the pressure oscillationis maintained +is is due to fluid-structure coupling Wheninitializing the given initial condition is not the value of thesteady state so there will be a transient response process Inthis process the pressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipewill lead to the vibration of the pipeline structure and thevibration of the pipeline structure will in turn affect the
motion of the fluid in the pipe +is results in a continuousexcitation in which the vibration of some frequency com-ponents (Figure 9(c)) is stimulated +erefore the pressureoscillation can be maintained in the final steady state As canbe seen from Figure 9(b) there are three frequency com-ponents 825Hz 170Hz and 285Hz However fromFigure 9(c) it can be seen that as time goes on the frequencyof 825Hz is attenuated and finally only two frequencycomponents are consistent with the third- and fifth-orderstructural natural frequencies of Case 5 +is is because thevibration displacement direction of the two structural nat-ural frequencies coincides with the direction of the forceformed by the pressure wave on the pipe wall thus stim-ulating the vibration of the pipe
It is noteworthy that the vibration displacement di-rection of the second-order structural natural frequency isalso the same as the direction of the force formed by thepressure wave but it is not stimulated in Figure 9(b) Inorder to study this phenomenon the pressure difference ofthe branch pipe in X and Y directions is calculated re-spectively As can be seen from Figure 10 the pressuredifference in the y direction is much larger than that in the xdirection Moreover as can be seen from Figure 8 the vi-bration of the second-order structural natural frequency is inthe x direction of the branch pipe the vibration of the third-order structural natural frequency is mainly in the y di-rection of the main pipe and a little in the y-direction of thebranch pipe and the vibration of the fifth-order structuralnatural frequency is mainly in the y-direction of the branch

pipe +erefore the vibration of the fifth-order structuralnatural frequency is larger
+e analysis process of other cases is the same as aboveIn order to avoid redundancy the figures of their calculationresults are no longer presented in the paper Table 2 showsthe peak-peak value and main frequency components ofpipeline vibration in these seven cases under fluid-structureinteraction It can be seen from the table that in any case thefrequency components of pipeline vibration are consistentwith the third- and fifth-order structural natural frequenciesAlthough the first-order structural natural frequency isgenerally considered to be the easiest to be stimulated it isnot excited after steady state because the resultant force ofpressure wave acting on the z-direction of the pipe wall is 0In addition when the vibration frequency is close to theplane wave acoustic frequency the amplitude of the
vibration increases and when the vibration frequency is faraway from the plane wave acoustic frequency the amplitudeof the vibration decreases significantly
33 Effect of Different Pressures in Pipe In order to study theeffect of pressure on pipeline vibration under fluid-structureinteraction the vibration of pipeline was calculated underfour different pressures +e results are shown in Figure 11It can be seen from the figure that the greater the pressure inthe pipe the more vibration the pipe will be arousedMoreover in the case of nonresonance stable inlet flow andno external disturbance this phenomenon also occurs +ereason is that when the pressure wave encounters the closedbranch it will produce a great impact force which will leadto strong vibration of the pipeline structure

4 Experimental Results
Vibration velocity sensors and pressure sensors werearranged in the measuring pipeline and the measuringpoints are shown in Figure 3 Vibration signals from thevibration velocity sensors and pressure signals from thepressure sensors were recorded on PC data acquisitionsoftware by using a data acquisition board +e schematic ofmeasuring system is shown in Figure 13 +e samplingfrequency was 1000Hz and the sampling time was 8 s +etime-domain data were transformed into the frequency-domain data by fast-Fourier transform (FFT)
41 Determination of Structural Natural Frequencies Anexcitation test was carried out to determine structuralnatural frequencies of the pipeline A force hammer is usedto strike the pipeline quickly which is equivalent to a pulseexcitation to the pipeline structure Although the magnitudeand duration of the excitation are unknown it does notaffect the acquisition of structural natural frequencies +eycan be obtained by spectrum analysis of the measured vi-bration signals under excitation +e time-domain wave-form of MP1 under excitation is shown in Figure 14(a) andthe corresponding spectrum is shown in Figure 14(b) It canbe seen from the spectrum that there is a strongly dominantfrequency of 151Hz which is a certain order structuralnatural frequency Using the same method excitation testswere also carried out at other measuring points In order toavoid redundancy the figures of excitation test results atother measuring points are no longer given in the paperTable 3 shows the structural natural frequencies measured atall measuring points As can be seen from Table 3 the firstfive structural natural frequencies of the pipeline system are46Hz 84Hz 151Hz 214Hz and 259Hz respectively
42 Vibration Comparison under Different PressuresVibration measurements under six different pipeline pres-sures were carried out +e six kinds of pipeline pressure are01MPa 02MPa 03MPa 04MPa 05MPa and 056MParespectively Vibration data are obtained and analyzed ateach measuring point under each kind of pipeline pressure
Figure 15 shows the time-domain waveform and spec-trum of MP4 at a pressure of 02MPa As can be seen fromFigure 15(b) the main frequency components are 165Hzand 249Hz By comparing them with the structural naturalfrequencies described in Section 41 it can be seen that theyare consistent with the third- and fifth-order structuralnatural frequencies In addition by comparing the timehistories of experimental measurement and numerical cal-culation it can be seen that Figure 9(a) has a transientresponse process while Figure 15(a) does not +e reasonsare as follows In numerical calculation the initial conditiongiven for initialization is not the value of the steady state sothere will be a transient response process In this process thepressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipe will lead to thevibration of the pipeline structure and the vibration of thepipeline structure will in turn affect themotion of the fluid inthe pipe Vibration that is inconsistent with the direction of

the force generated by the pressure wave will attenuate to 0and vibration that is consistent with the direction of theforce generated by the pressure wave will maintain and tendto oscillate stably However in the experiment the vibrationmeasurement is carried out after the compressor is openedand operated for a period of time so there is no transientprocess +e steady-state experiment is similar to the steady-state oscillation process after 3 seconds in Figure 9(a) Itshould be noted that the experiment results also containnoise signals +is steady-state oscillation process also needsto be solved by the transient solution method +e purposeof this paper is to study the fluid-structure coupling vi-bration of the pipeline under steady oscillatory state+erefore by comparing the experimental results with thenumerical results under steady oscillatory state it can beseen that the vibration frequencies are consistent with thethird- and fifth-order structural natural frequencies
Table 4 shows the peak-peak value and main frequencycomponents of MP4 under different pressures It can be seenfrom the table that no matter how much pipe pressure is thefrequencies of pipeline vibration are the structural naturalfrequencies which is consistent with the results of numericalcalculation in Section 32 Furthermore the higher the pipepressure the greater the vibration which is in agreementwith the results of numerical calculation in Section 33 +esame conclusions are reached at other measuring points
5 Conclusions
(1) +e fluid-structure coupling method proposed isreasonable and reliable by comparing numericalresults with experimental results and can be appliedto engineering
(2) +rough the fluid-structure coupling calculation it isfound that the pressure fluctuation and the vibrationof pipeline structure will occur when the inlet flow isstable and there is no external disturbance +e vi-bration frequencies are consistent with the third- andfifth-order structural natural frequencies and thefirst-order structural natural frequency is not exciteddue to the direction of force
(3) +e higher the pressure in the pipe the greater thefluid-structure coupling vibration It is useless to addaccumulators in the high-pressure pipeline Al-though the inlet flow is steady there will still bevibration in the pipeline
(4) +e fluid-structure coupling vibration not only oc-curs in the studied pipeline but also propagates todistant downstream pipeline When there are teejunctions elbows and closed valves it will form anexciting force in a certain direction to stimulate thevibration there

During the mesh updating process the total number andtopological relationship of the grid nodes remain un-changed After all nodes are looped over at the current timetheir coordinates are all known and can be calculated ac-curately at the next time+erefore mesh updating moves inan orderly and controllable direction Even after tens ofthousands of times of movement the mesh after updatingcan still maintain high quality thus ensuring the smoothoperation of transient flow field calculation

Based on the fluid-structure coupling method of pipelinevibration mentioned in this paper the transient calculationunder these seven cases is carried out respectively +ecalculation results of MP4 in Case 5 are shown in Figure 9From Figure 9(a) it can be seen that the pressure oscillationis maintained +is is due to fluid-structure coupling Wheninitializing the given initial condition is not the value of thesteady state so there will be a transient response process Inthis process the pressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipewill lead to the vibration of the pipeline structure and thevibration of the pipeline structure will in turn affect the
motion of the fluid in the pipe +is results in a continuousexcitation in which the vibration of some frequency com-ponents (Figure 9(c)) is stimulated +erefore the pressureoscillation can be maintained in the final steady state As canbe seen from Figure 9(b) there are three frequency com-ponents 825Hz 170Hz and 285Hz However fromFigure 9(c) it can be seen that as time goes on the frequencyof 825Hz is attenuated and finally only two frequencycomponents are consistent with the third- and fifth-orderstructural natural frequencies of Case 5 +is is because thevibration displacement direction of the two structural nat-ural frequencies coincides with the direction of the forceformed by the pressure wave on the pipe wall thus stim-ulating the vibration of the pipe
It is noteworthy that the vibration displacement di-rection of the second-order structural natural frequency isalso the same as the direction of the force formed by thepressure wave but it is not stimulated in Figure 9(b) Inorder to study this phenomenon the pressure difference ofthe branch pipe in X and Y directions is calculated re-spectively As can be seen from Figure 10 the pressuredifference in the y direction is much larger than that in the xdirection Moreover as can be seen from Figure 8 the vi-bration of the second-order structural natural frequency is inthe x direction of the branch pipe the vibration of the third-order structural natural frequency is mainly in the y di-rection of the main pipe and a little in the y-direction of thebranch pipe and the vibration of the fifth-order structuralnatural frequency is mainly in the y-direction of the branch

+e analysis process of other cases is the same as aboveIn order to avoid redundancy the figures of their calculationresults are no longer presented in the paper Table 2 showsthe peak-peak value and main frequency components ofpipeline vibration in these seven cases under fluid-structureinteraction It can be seen from the table that in any case thefrequency components of pipeline vibration are consistentwith the third- and fifth-order structural natural frequenciesAlthough the first-order structural natural frequency isgenerally considered to be the easiest to be stimulated it isnot excited after steady state because the resultant force ofpressure wave acting on the z-direction of the pipe wall is 0In addition when the vibration frequency is close to theplane wave acoustic frequency the amplitude of the
vibration increases and when the vibration frequency is faraway from the plane wave acoustic frequency the amplitudeof the vibration decreases significantly
33 Effect of Different Pressures in Pipe In order to study theeffect of pressure on pipeline vibration under fluid-structureinteraction the vibration of pipeline was calculated underfour different pressures +e results are shown in Figure 11It can be seen from the figure that the greater the pressure inthe pipe the more vibration the pipe will be arousedMoreover in the case of nonresonance stable inlet flow andno external disturbance this phenomenon also occurs +ereason is that when the pressure wave encounters the closedbranch it will produce a great impact force which will leadto strong vibration of the pipeline structure

4 Experimental Results
Vibration velocity sensors and pressure sensors werearranged in the measuring pipeline and the measuringpoints are shown in Figure 3 Vibration signals from thevibration velocity sensors and pressure signals from thepressure sensors were recorded on PC data acquisitionsoftware by using a data acquisition board +e schematic ofmeasuring system is shown in Figure 13 +e samplingfrequency was 1000Hz and the sampling time was 8 s +etime-domain data were transformed into the frequency-domain data by fast-Fourier transform (FFT)
41 Determination of Structural Natural Frequencies Anexcitation test was carried out to determine structuralnatural frequencies of the pipeline A force hammer is usedto strike the pipeline quickly which is equivalent to a pulseexcitation to the pipeline structure Although the magnitudeand duration of the excitation are unknown it does notaffect the acquisition of structural natural frequencies +eycan be obtained by spectrum analysis of the measured vi-bration signals under excitation +e time-domain wave-form of MP1 under excitation is shown in Figure 14(a) andthe corresponding spectrum is shown in Figure 14(b) It canbe seen from the spectrum that there is a strongly dominantfrequency of 151Hz which is a certain order structuralnatural frequency Using the same method excitation testswere also carried out at other measuring points In order toavoid redundancy the figures of excitation test results atother measuring points are no longer given in the paperTable 3 shows the structural natural frequencies measured atall measuring points As can be seen from Table 3 the firstfive structural natural frequencies of the pipeline system are46Hz 84Hz 151Hz 214Hz and 259Hz respectively
42 Vibration Comparison under Different PressuresVibration measurements under six different pipeline pres-sures were carried out +e six kinds of pipeline pressure are01MPa 02MPa 03MPa 04MPa 05MPa and 056MParespectively Vibration data are obtained and analyzed ateach measuring point under each kind of pipeline pressure
Figure 15 shows the time-domain waveform and spec-trum of MP4 at a pressure of 02MPa As can be seen fromFigure 15(b) the main frequency components are 165Hzand 249Hz By comparing them with the structural naturalfrequencies described in Section 41 it can be seen that theyare consistent with the third- and fifth-order structuralnatural frequencies In addition by comparing the timehistories of experimental measurement and numerical cal-culation it can be seen that Figure 9(a) has a transientresponse process while Figure 15(a) does not +e reasonsare as follows In numerical calculation the initial conditiongiven for initialization is not the value of the steady state sothere will be a transient response process In this process thepressure fluctuation of the fluid in the pipe will lead to thevibration of the pipeline structure and the vibration of thepipeline structure will in turn affect themotion of the fluid inthe pipe Vibration that is inconsistent with the direction of

10 Shock and Vibration
the force generated by the pressure wave will attenuate to 0and vibration that is consistent with the direction of theforce generated by the pressure wave will maintain and tendto oscillate stably However in the experiment the vibrationmeasurement is carried out after the compressor is openedand operated for a period of time so there is no transientprocess +e steady-state experiment is similar to the steady-state oscillation process after 3 seconds in Figure 9(a) Itshould be noted that the experiment results also containnoise signals +is steady-state oscillation process also needsto be solved by the transient solution method +e purposeof this paper is to study the fluid-structure coupling vi-bration of the pipeline under steady oscillatory state+erefore by comparing the experimental results with thenumerical results under steady oscillatory state it can beseen that the vibration frequencies are consistent with thethird- and fifth-order structural natural frequencies
Table 4 shows the peak-peak value and main frequencycomponents of MP4 under different pressures It can be seenfrom the table that no matter how much pipe pressure is thefrequencies of pipeline vibration are the structural naturalfrequencies which is consistent with the results of numericalcalculation in Section 32 Furthermore the higher the pipepressure the greater the vibration which is in agreementwith the results of numerical calculation in Section 33 +esame conclusions are reached at other measuring points
5 Conclusions
(1) +e fluid-structure coupling method proposed isreasonable and reliable by comparing numericalresults with experimental results and can be appliedto engineering
(2) +rough the fluid-structure coupling calculation it isfound that the pressure fluctuation and the vibrationof pipeline structure will occur when the inlet flow isstable and there is no external disturbance +e vi-bration frequencies are consistent with the third- andfifth-order structural natural frequencies and thefirst-order structural natural frequency is not exciteddue to the direction of force
(3) +e higher the pressure in the pipe the greater thefluid-structure coupling vibration It is useless to addaccumulators in the high-pressure pipeline Al-though the inlet flow is steady there will still bevibration in the pipeline
(4) +e fluid-structure coupling vibration not only oc-curs in the studied pipeline but also propagates todistant downstream pipeline When there are teejunctions elbows and closed valves it will form anexciting force in a certain direction to stimulate thevibration there

+e analysis process of other cases is the same as aboveIn order to avoid redundancy the figures of their calculationresults are no longer presented in the paper Table 2 showsthe peak-peak value and main frequency components ofpipeline vibration in these seven cases under fluid-structureinteraction It can be seen from the table that in any case thefrequency components of pipeline vibration are consistentwith the third- and fifth-order structural natural frequenciesAlthough the first-order structural natural frequency isgenerally considered to be the easiest to be stimulated it isnot excited after steady state because the resultant force ofpressure wave acting on the z-direction of the pipe wall is 0In addition when the vibration frequency is close to theplane wave acoustic frequency the amplitude of the
vibration increases and when the vibration frequency is faraway from the plane wave acoustic frequency the amplitudeof the vibration decreases significantly
33 Effect of Different Pressures in Pipe In order to study theeffect of pressure on pipeline vibration under fluid-structureinteraction the vibration of pipeline was calculated underfour different pressures +e results are shown in Figure 11It can be seen from the figure that the greater the pressure inthe pipe the more vibration the pipe will be arousedMoreover in the case of nonresonance stable inlet flow andno external disturbance this phenomenon also occurs +ereason is that when the pressure wave encounters the closedbranch it will produce a great impact force which will leadto strong vibration of the pipeline structure

10 Shock and Vibration
the force generated by the pressure wave will attenuate to 0and vibration that is consistent with the direction of theforce generated by the pressure wave will maintain and tendto oscillate stably However in the experiment the vibrationmeasurement is carried out after the compressor is openedand operated for a period of time so there is no transientprocess +e steady-state experiment is similar to the steady-state oscillation process after 3 seconds in Figure 9(a) Itshould be noted that the experiment results also containnoise signals +is steady-state oscillation process also needsto be solved by the transient solution method +e purposeof this paper is to study the fluid-structure coupling vi-bration of the pipeline under steady oscillatory state+erefore by comparing the experimental results with thenumerical results under steady oscillatory state it can beseen that the vibration frequencies are consistent with thethird- and fifth-order structural natural frequencies
Table 4 shows the peak-peak value and main frequencycomponents of MP4 under different pressures It can be seenfrom the table that no matter how much pipe pressure is thefrequencies of pipeline vibration are the structural naturalfrequencies which is consistent with the results of numericalcalculation in Section 32 Furthermore the higher the pipepressure the greater the vibration which is in agreementwith the results of numerical calculation in Section 33 +esame conclusions are reached at other measuring points
5 Conclusions
(1) +e fluid-structure coupling method proposed isreasonable and reliable by comparing numericalresults with experimental results and can be appliedto engineering
(2) +rough the fluid-structure coupling calculation it isfound that the pressure fluctuation and the vibrationof pipeline structure will occur when the inlet flow isstable and there is no external disturbance +e vi-bration frequencies are consistent with the third- andfifth-order structural natural frequencies and thefirst-order structural natural frequency is not exciteddue to the direction of force
(3) +e higher the pressure in the pipe the greater thefluid-structure coupling vibration It is useless to addaccumulators in the high-pressure pipeline Al-though the inlet flow is steady there will still bevibration in the pipeline
(4) +e fluid-structure coupling vibration not only oc-curs in the studied pipeline but also propagates todistant downstream pipeline When there are teejunctions elbows and closed valves it will form anexciting force in a certain direction to stimulate thevibration there

10 Shock and Vibration
the force generated by the pressure wave will attenuate to 0and vibration that is consistent with the direction of theforce generated by the pressure wave will maintain and tendto oscillate stably However in the experiment the vibrationmeasurement is carried out after the compressor is openedand operated for a period of time so there is no transientprocess +e steady-state experiment is similar to the steady-state oscillation process after 3 seconds in Figure 9(a) Itshould be noted that the experiment results also containnoise signals +is steady-state oscillation process also needsto be solved by the transient solution method +e purposeof this paper is to study the fluid-structure coupling vi-bration of the pipeline under steady oscillatory state+erefore by comparing the experimental results with thenumerical results under steady oscillatory state it can beseen that the vibration frequencies are consistent with thethird- and fifth-order structural natural frequencies
Table 4 shows the peak-peak value and main frequencycomponents of MP4 under different pressures It can be seenfrom the table that no matter how much pipe pressure is thefrequencies of pipeline vibration are the structural naturalfrequencies which is consistent with the results of numericalcalculation in Section 32 Furthermore the higher the pipepressure the greater the vibration which is in agreementwith the results of numerical calculation in Section 33 +esame conclusions are reached at other measuring points
5 Conclusions
(1) +e fluid-structure coupling method proposed isreasonable and reliable by comparing numericalresults with experimental results and can be appliedto engineering
(2) +rough the fluid-structure coupling calculation it isfound that the pressure fluctuation and the vibrationof pipeline structure will occur when the inlet flow isstable and there is no external disturbance +e vi-bration frequencies are consistent with the third- andfifth-order structural natural frequencies and thefirst-order structural natural frequency is not exciteddue to the direction of force
(3) +e higher the pressure in the pipe the greater thefluid-structure coupling vibration It is useless to addaccumulators in the high-pressure pipeline Al-though the inlet flow is steady there will still bevibration in the pipeline
(4) +e fluid-structure coupling vibration not only oc-curs in the studied pipeline but also propagates todistant downstream pipeline When there are teejunctions elbows and closed valves it will form anexciting force in a certain direction to stimulate thevibration there

10 Shock and Vibration
the force generated by the pressure wave will attenuate to 0and vibration that is consistent with the direction of theforce generated by the pressure wave will maintain and tendto oscillate stably However in the experiment the vibrationmeasurement is carried out after the compressor is openedand operated for a period of time so there is no transientprocess +e steady-state experiment is similar to the steady-state oscillation process after 3 seconds in Figure 9(a) Itshould be noted that the experiment results also containnoise signals +is steady-state oscillation process also needsto be solved by the transient solution method +e purposeof this paper is to study the fluid-structure coupling vi-bration of the pipeline under steady oscillatory state+erefore by comparing the experimental results with thenumerical results under steady oscillatory state it can beseen that the vibration frequencies are consistent with thethird- and fifth-order structural natural frequencies
Table 4 shows the peak-peak value and main frequencycomponents of MP4 under different pressures It can be seenfrom the table that no matter how much pipe pressure is thefrequencies of pipeline vibration are the structural naturalfrequencies which is consistent with the results of numericalcalculation in Section 32 Furthermore the higher the pipepressure the greater the vibration which is in agreementwith the results of numerical calculation in Section 33 +esame conclusions are reached at other measuring points
5 Conclusions
(1) +e fluid-structure coupling method proposed isreasonable and reliable by comparing numericalresults with experimental results and can be appliedto engineering
(2) +rough the fluid-structure coupling calculation it isfound that the pressure fluctuation and the vibrationof pipeline structure will occur when the inlet flow isstable and there is no external disturbance +e vi-bration frequencies are consistent with the third- andfifth-order structural natural frequencies and thefirst-order structural natural frequency is not exciteddue to the direction of force
(3) +e higher the pressure in the pipe the greater thefluid-structure coupling vibration It is useless to addaccumulators in the high-pressure pipeline Al-though the inlet flow is steady there will still bevibration in the pipeline
(4) +e fluid-structure coupling vibration not only oc-curs in the studied pipeline but also propagates todistant downstream pipeline When there are teejunctions elbows and closed valves it will form anexciting force in a certain direction to stimulate thevibration there
