Numerical simulation of heat transport in multilayered composite pipe. (English) Zbl 1464.80032

Summary: The key challenge faced by engineers is how to design a subsea pipeline to ensure that the production fluid is safely and economically transported from the reservoir all the way downstream to the processing plants. Transient thermal analysis is essential for flow assurance design and operating strategies of deepwater subsea pipelines. This work presents a numerical analysis of heat transport in sandwich pipes. The mathematical models governing the heat energy diffusion-convection transport in the fluid flow and the heat diffusion in the multilayered composite pipeline were solved by means of a boundary element method based on the use of appropriate Green’s functions.
