Abstract:Intelligent pipeline inspection is necessary to operate submarine pipelines safely. At present, speed excursion and blockage are the challenges in the inspection of low-pressure gas pipelines. Accordingly, this study proposes a novel pneumo-electric hybrid-driven scheme to improve the traveling stability of inspection robots. To adapt to different working conditions, building blocks and CFD numerical simulation methods are used to study the throttling pressure control flow field of the robot. The results prove… Show more
