The Stabilization Ensuring of the Underground Pipelines Design State in the Permafrost Conditions

Abstract

The article considers one of the possible options for improving the technology of construction of underground pipelines in conditions of permafrost soils, which today is very relevant. The most significant disadvantages of the existing methods of underground laying of pipelines on permafrost soils are the thermal and mechanical impact of the pipeline on the soil base during operation and the occurrence of unacceptable plastic deformations of the pipeline. The purpose of the studies is to prevent or minimize the thermal impact of the pipeline on MMG during operation, and as a result, to ensure stabilization of the design position of the pipeline by preventing unacceptable plastic deformation of the pipeline. The main tasks solved in research: develop a method of laying an underground pipeline that eliminates thermal impact on the containing frozen soil; simulate the underground pipeline laying structure and calculate stress-strain state in the ANSYS software complex, as well as forecast calculation of thermal interaction of the structure on frozen soil in the FROST 3D Universal software complex.
