In-Situ Test of Pressure Pipeline Vibration based on Data Acquisition and Signal Processing

Pipeline vibration of high frequency and large amplitude is an important factor that impacts the safe operation of pumping station and the efficiency of the pumps. Through conducting the vibration in-situ test of pipeline system in the pumping station, we can objectively analyze the mechanism of pipeline vibration and evaluate the stability of pipeline operation. By using DASP (data acquisition & signal processing) in the in-situ test on the 2# pipeline of the third pumping station in the general main line of Jingtaichuan electric-lifting irrigation project in Gansu Province (later known as “the general trunk third pumping station in Jingtai electric project”) and then adopting time-domain analysis and cross-spectrum analysis to deal with collected data, we can acquire the vibration state in different positions of pipeline. Tests have shown that, the application of DASP in the vibration test of pressure pipeline of the pumping station, compared to the traditional test systems, can not only obtain higher test accuracy and efficiency, but can also provide theory basis and technical support for solving the vibration problems of the same-type pipeline operation. It has a good promotion value in the engineering practice.
