Modeling and Research on the Defects of Pressed Rigging in a Geomagnetic Field Based on Finite Element Simulation

Abstract

It is very important to carry out effective safety inspections on suppression rigging because of the bad service environment of suppression rigging: marine environments. In this paper, the multi-parameter simulation method in ANSYS and ANSYS Electronics Suite simulation software is used to simulate the effect of geomagnetic fields on the magnetic induction intensity of defective pressed rigging under the variable stress in marine environments. The results of the ANSYS simulation and geomagnetic flaw detection equipment are verified. The simulation results show that, according to the multi-parameter simulation results of ANSYS and ANSYS Electronics Suite simulation software, it can be found that, under the action of transverse force, the internal stress of the pressed rigging will affect the magnetic field around pressed rigging with defects. With an increase in internal stress in the range of 0~20 MPa, the magnetic induction intensity increases to 0.55 A/m, and with an increase in internal stress in the range of 20~150 MPa, the magnetic induction intensity decreases to 0.06 A/m. From the use of a force magnetic coupling analysis method, it can be obtained, under the lateral force of the defects in suppressing rigging, that magnetic flux leakage signals decrease with an increase in the rigging’s radial distance. The experiment results show that the difference between the peak and trough of the magnetic induction intensity at the pressed rigging defect calculated by the ANSYS simulation is very consistent with the results measured by the geomagnetic flaw detection equipment.
