ARIE,M., and KIYA,M., “Lift of a Cylinder in Shear Flow Subjected to an Interference of a Plane Wall,” Proceedings of the United States-Japan Seminar on Similitude in Fluid Mechanics, Sept. 1967, pp. 33—60. Keywords: Circular cylinder, Stream function Paper describes an analytical study of shear flow across a circular cylinder subjected to an interference of a plane wall. The stream function, velocity distribution, and pressure distribution on the surface of the cylinder are derived analytically, assuming an inviscid fluid. The cylinder experiences a transverse lift force toward the wall for a uniform flow; for a shear flow with a certain amount of velocity gradient, the lift force is away from the wall. Experiments were carried out in a wind tunnel to verify the trends of the analytical results with respect to the change of lift coefficient of a cylinder in shear flow. Graphical curves are presented to illustrate the results of the analysis and experiments. 61. ARMSTRONG, E.

Keywords: Submerged pipeline, Wave-induced forces Paper presents the results of a laboratory investigation of the horizontal wave-induced forces on a submerged pipeline. The total horizontal wave force on the submerged pipe is assumed to be composed of two parts—a drag force due to the orbital velocities, and an inertial force due to the orbital accelerations. Values of the horizontal components of the orbital velocities and accelerations were calculated using the airy theory, and the values of the coefficients of drag and mass were determined from the force data of the model pipeline. The tests were run for a pipe suspended at various elevations above the bottom, including very close to the bottom and in a trench. The coefficient of mass appears to have the largest values for a pipe located near the bottom, and lowest values for a pipe located in a trench. The coefficient of drag appears to decrease with an increase in Reynolds number. 20 80. BREWER, W. V., and DIXON, D.

R., “‘Stiffened Catenary Calculations in Pipeline Laying Problems,” Transactions, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Vol. 90, Feb. 1968, p. 153. Keywords: Bending stresses, Lay barge, Pipeline laying Paper describes a method for calculating the required tension and pipe angle at the lay barge for the laying of a pipeline in deep water from a lay barge with an inclined derrick, without the use of a stinger. Equations to determine the end conditions of the pipeline required at the lay barge to prevent excessive bending stresses at the point of maximum curvature near the ocean floor are developed using two methods of analyses. The equations are derived by first assuming the pipeline to take the form of a natural catenary, and second assuming the pipeline to take the form of a stiffened catenary. Both methods yield about the same results for the calculation of the required tension at the lay barge, but the stiffened catenary method gives better results for the required angle of the pipe at the lay barge, because end effects due to pipeline bending stiffness have been neglected in assuming the pipe to take the form of a natural catenary. Dimensionless curves are given for application of the results of the analyses, and examples are given to illustrate their use, and to compare the two methods. 105. DOMINGUEZ, R.

The 26 behavior of the pipeline can be evaluated for two- and three-dimensional systems and subject to both structural and fluid dynamic loads due to wave and current action. The dynamic response of the system and the dynamic forces and stresses within the system depend on the initially unknown pipeline configuration, as well as the induced hydro- dynamic forces, the structural loads, and the restraints imposed by the termination and mooring points of the system. The method involves a self-correcting iterative procedure that converges to simultaneously satisfy the equilibrium requirements and boundary conditions. It is based on a set of geometric location equations and the use of the principles of elementary statics. An applied example to a ball-jointed pipeline system is given. 106.

Keywords: Pipeline connector system, Wellhead installation The development of a guidance and connector system is discussed for the remote connection of multiple pipelines from wellheads to the subsea control station of oil production facilities. The system was designed to allow the use of a single guideline for each connector, rather than four guidelines per connector as in most conventional systems. An articulated support frame was designed to allow relative movement between the connectors, while at the same time keeping them within known dimensional variations to ensure proper alinement of the connectors with the wellheads for the connection of the piping assemblies. A working scale model of the guidance and connector system and the piping assembly was built and tested to evaluate the installation and retrieval characteristics of the design concept, and to determine the influence of the piping loads and the effect of the support frame on the alinement of the connectors. Several modifications were made to the model before satisfactory results were obtained, and then a full-scale prototype was built and tested. 107.

Linear wave theory is used, and values of the coefficients of drag, inertia, and lift that must be used in the Morison equations are given for various conditions, as determined from the data available on wave-induced forces from several studies. The variation of the wave force coefficients with changes in the orientation of the pipeline with respect to the wave fronts, and with changes in the relative clearance of the pipeline from the bottom of the sea floor, with respect to the pipe diameter, are also discussed. These variations in the force coefficients are presented in graphs and tables. 124. GREEN, J. E., and HOWARD, H.

Keywords: Model pipeline, Wave-induced forces A report on the results of experiments carried out to investigate the wave-induced forces on a model submarine pipeline. The model was scaled to reproduce the orbits, orbital velocities, and orbital accelerations at the bed of the prototype with respect to the diameter of the prototype pipeline, but no attempt was made to reproduce to scale the large water depths and wave heights of the prototype. Experimental instrumentation was set up to measure the wave profile, orbit lengths, orbit velocities, horizontal forces, and vertical forces on the pipeline model. The wave force data were analyzed using the Morison method, in which a drag force term is added to an inertial force term to determine the total force on the pipeline. The data were plotted in terms of three dimensionless parameters which include all of the parameters on which the force on the pipe was assumed to depend. 3| 132. IDES, O.

Keywords: Corrosion protection, Hyperion outfall, Los Angeles, California Paper describes the design and construction of the corrosion protection system used in the Hyperion ocean outfall in Los Angeles, California. The corrosion protection system was designed to provide a useful life of at least 100 years, because the steel pipeline is terminated in water too deep to make it accessible to the conventional diving methods used to inspect, test, and repair submarine pipelines. An impressed current corrosion protection system was used rather than sacrificial anodes, due to the relatively short lifetime and the 33 difficulty of replacement of sacrificial anodes. The steel pipe was coated with coal-tar enamel, fiberglass reinforcing, and bonded asbestos felt. A steel mesh-reinforced cement- mortar shield was applied over the coating, and cement mortar was also used to line the inside of the pipe. The pipe sections were assembled onshore and pulled out to sea by barge. A cathodic protection was used during the installation of the pipeline, which provided continuous testing to detect any damage to the coating. This testing made repairs possible before ihe pipe was laid at inaccessible depths on the sea bottom. 141.

Keywords: Offshore pipelines, Stress analysis Paper describes a computer-oriented iterative method to determine the stresses and nonlinear configuration of a submarine pipeline suspended between a lay barge and the ocean floor during the installation operations. A stiffness matrix method is used to determine the stresses and configuration of the suspended pipeline for a lay large with a 4 straight stinger, an articulated stinger, or without a stinger, and with or without tension applied at the lay barge. The weight of the pipe and coating and the buoyant and drag forces are considered as static forces, although dynamic loads due to lay barge movements or inertial forces may be introduced into the ‘computation. The basic equations and procedure of the analysis are given, along with examples illustrating the application of the method. 176. OVUNC, B., and MALLAREDDY H., “Stress Analysis of Offshore Pipelines Under Dynamic Loads,” Offshore Technology Conference, Vol. I, Apr. 1971, pp. 1349-1356. Keywords: Offshore pipelines, Stress analysis A computer-oriented iterative method of analysis to determine the deformation and stresses due to dynamic loads on a submarine pipeline suspended between the ocean floor and the lay barge is discussed. A stiffness matrix method is used to solve the deformed shape of the pipeline under static loads, and a modal analysis is used for the dynamic loads. The dynamic loads are applied to the statically deformed configuration of the pipeline, which is modified to eliminate the terms due to rotations. The pipeline is assumed to consist of finite elements, and the external loads on the members are lumped to the joints and expressed in mass units. The natural frequency and modal shapes are determined from the equations of motion for a multidegree, lumped mass system. The method is general and applicable to any dynamic loading condition. The procedure and equations of the analysis are given, and an example of the application of the method is given for the dynamic loads of lay barge displacements due to wave action. 177. PEARCE, B.

The survey device is a self-contained unit consisting of a power section, a transducer section, and a recording section; all three sections are connected with universal joints. The unit travels through the pipeline system, driven by the power section which has scraper cups to center the device in the pipeline and form a seal with the pipe wall, so the survey device is carried through the pipeline by the liquid flowing through it. The transducer section uses a direct current electro-magnetic flux leakage technique to detect defects on either pipe surface and provide signals to the recording section, where the signals are stored on magnetic tape. As the survey device travels through the pipeline, it records points of corrosion or damage, girth welds, valves, speed, and orientation of the device. 192.

The thermal stability of the pipeline is studied with respect to possible buckling due to thermal expansion between the fixed ends to the pipeline, and subsidence of the line due to thermal osmosis of the clay and convection currents in the sand induced by the flow of heat from the pipeline to the sediments. 230.

F., and CALDWELL, H.M., “Force and Stability Measurements on Models of Submerged Pipelines,” Offshore Technology Conference, Paper No. OTC 1224, Vol. I, Apr. 1970, pp. 1747-1758. Keywords: Current forces, Submerged pipeline A laboratory investigation of current-induced forces on submarine pipelines anchored just above the ocean floor is discussed. Lift and drag forces and vibrations induced by eddy shedding were studied for two parallel pipes located close to the sea floor. The effects of horizontal spacing between the parallel pipes, vertical spacing from the ground plane, and the orientation angle of the pipeline with respect to the current direction were observed. The experimental results were plotted and compared with available data for double and single pipelines with the ground plane absent. 232. WILSON, R. O., and MARTIN, M. R., “Deepwater Pipelining for Central North Sea,” Offshore Technology Conference, Vol. II, Apr.-May 1973, pp. 11305-11314. Keywords: Construction methods, Ekofisk, Norway The construction of an oil pipeline system in the Ekofisk Field in the central North Sea is reviewed. The pipeline construction equipment and methods used in the project are described, including special alterations made. to the lay barge; pipeline-tensioning tech- niques; pipe connections, risers, and special pipe-handling techniques; trenching methods; saturation diving operations; and surface position control techniques. Several developments and improvements in pipelaying technology for future projects in rougher and deeper water are also discussed, including special lay barges, improved tensioning techniques, automatic pipe-joining methods, new diving systems, and improvements in logistical planning and implementation on pipeline projects. 233.

F., “Conceptual Designs of Outfall Systems for Desalination Plants,” Offshore Technology Conference, Vol. I, Apr. 1971, pp. 1451-1462. Keywords: Desalination plant, Outfall pipeline Paper discusses the design of outfall systems for the discharge of dense effluents from coastal desalination plants. Vertically directed submerged jets, jets reaching the surface of the receiving water, and jets inclined at angles of 30°, 45°, and 60° with the horizontal were studied. An experimental model investigation and a numerical analysis, were carried out for each case to determine which arrangement gave the maximum dilution. The diffuser design principles are discussed, and conceptual designs and cost estimates were made and compared for desalination plants of various sizes, ranging from 2 to 50 million gallons per day.
