Abstract
Test methods and means for characterising the stress-strain-state (SSS) of pipes in a gas pipeline compressor station were compared. At first the SSS determination methods and means were evaluated under laboratory conditions, and then under field conditions. The test objects were a special hydraulic test bench; supercharger manifold piping systems; a compressor station input loop; a duster manifold piping. For calibration artificial strains were impressed to the last two objects. The following SSS determination methods and means were applied: strain measurement; magnetic Barkhausen noise; metal magnetic memory (MMM) method; amplitude-phase frequency characteristics (APFC) method; hardness measurements; calculations; design-experiment method.
