考虑扶正器接触作用的双屏顶张式立管耦合动力响应分析

COUPLED DYNAMIC RESPONSE ANALYSIS OF DOUBLE-CASING TOP TENSION RISER CONSIDERING THE CONTACT EFFECT OF CENTRALIZERS

  • 摘要: 顶张式立管(Top Tension Riser, TTR)作为干式采油树的生产立管,通常为双屏套管结构。目前研究中往往忽略管柱间相互作用将双屏套管等效为单层管,不能准确反应套管各管柱的受力状态。现将双屏TTR模拟为上端连接张紧器、底端固定的Euler-Bernoulli梁,考虑管柱间扶正器的接触作用建立其耦合运动方程,运用Newmark-β法进行迭代求解,得到平台运动激励下立管各管柱的动力响应。结果表明:管柱的应力分布规律呈现出明显差异,不同水深处各管柱的运动响应受扶正器的影响程度不同,上部受波浪载荷作用明显,扶正器可以有效减小外套管的运动响应。而下部则受扶正器接触力的影响较大,可适当增加扶正器的间距;扶正器高度选取管层间距的80%较合适,既可以减小外套管的运动响应,同时内管和油管受到的接触力较小;立管顶端模拟为弹性连接的动边界,立管的轴向刚度可自适应变化,相比与铰接连接,TTR顶端的运动频率和幅值均减小,表明张紧器在平台与立管之间具有明显的缓冲作用。

     

    Abstract: Top Tension Risers (TTRs), serving as the production riser for a dry-type tree, typically has a double-casing structure. At present double-casing TTR is simplified as an equivalent single-layer pipe neglecting the interaction among the pipe columns, which cannot accurately reflect the stress state of each pipe column. The double-casing TTR is modeled as an Euler-Bernoulli beam with the upper end connected to a tensioner and the lower end fixed. Considering the contact effect of centralizers among pipe columns, the coupled motion equations are established and solved by Newmark-β method to analyze the dynamic response of the double-casing riser under platform excited motion. The results show that the stress distribution of the pipe columns show significant differences. The influence of centralizers on the motion response of each pipe column varies with water depth. The upper part is significantly affected by wave loads, and centralizers can effectively reduce the motion response of the outer casing. The lower part is more influenced by the contact force of centralizers, and the spacing of centralizers can be appropriately increased. A centralizer height of 80% of the space among pipe columns is found to be optimal, as it reduces the motion response of the outer casing while minimizing the contact forces on the inner casing and oil pipe. The top of the riser is connected dynamic elastically boundary, and the axial stiffness of the riser is adaptively changed. Compared with a pinned connection, the motion frequency and amplitude of the TTR top are reduced, indicating that the tensioner has a obvious buffering effect between the platform and the riser.
