The piping system connected with the shipboard equipment may be subjected to excessive vibration due to harmonic base excitation produced by hydrodynamic force imposed on the propeller blades interacting with the hull and by other sources. Vibration design aspects for shipboard pipework are often ignored, which may cause catastrophic fatigue failures and, consequently, leakage and spillage in the sea environment. Without dedicated design codes, the integrity of shipboard equipment against this environment loading can be ensured by testing as per test standard MIL-STD-167-1A (2005). However, in many cases, testing is not feasible and economically viable. Hence, this study develops an FE-based vibration analysis methodology based on MIL-STD-167-1A, which can be a valuable tool to optimize the testing requirement without compromising the integrity of these piping systems. The simulated model dynamic properties are validated with experimental modal testing and Harmonic response analysis result confirm that a mitigating solution option can be verified by a FE based vibration analysis to mitigate the vibration problem.

1 Introduction

Excessive vibration in the piping system in the oil and gas and shipping industry is the biggest threat to safe and reliable operation since it can cause catastrophic fatigue failure without prior warning. Excessive vibration can pose severe issues related to safety, environment, and cost, i.e., it can cause uncontrolled leakage from piping flanges and, consequently, spillage in the seawater. The spillage of hydrocarbon liquids in the seawater can seriously threaten the sea environment and ecology. This study focuses on developing an approach for vibration analysis of piping systems connected with shipboard equipment to mitigate excessive vibration. Consequently, this will ensure environmental sustainability around the sea and nearby areas.

However, the contrary, most of the piping design codes focus mainly on static loadings like temperature and pressure. Hence, accurate analysis and subsequent calibration of appropriate vibration reduction simulation ensure the integrity and continuous operation of the plant. The vibration in piping mainly depends on three aspects, i.e., magnitude and frequency of excitation force (e.g., flow disturbance or pressure pulsation), system’s modal characteristics (natural frequency, mode shape, and damping), and fluid-structure interaction. In most cases, improper system modal characteristics are a prominent cause of the piping system’s vibration, especially when excitation and natural frequency are very close. Hence, realistic estimation of modal characteristics is vital to generate accurate results from the simulated Finite element model.

Several simulations and experimental studies have been conducted to validate the mitigation options for troubleshooting excessive vibration. Atkins Kenneth et al. (2004). Discussed the various mitigating options for controlling the vibration in piping connected with a reciprocating compressor, and they also discussed the multiple constraints to get the realistic value of modal parameters from the finite element model. Alexandre et al. (2018) discussed an F.E. analysis methodology for assessing the fatigue life of welded components based on a realistic simulated stress and Stress life (S-N) approach from British Standard BS-7608. Beauvais Romain et al. (2021) tested a piping system and established a non-intrusive acceleration measurement technique to identify the internal sound pressure level within a piping loop. Pulsation-induced vibration problems can be easily diagnosed based on this approach. Richard and Jacquelin. (2021) determined a procedure for incorporating the underlying wall pressure fluctuations in a finite element model to determine the fatigue life of a piping system. They studied the manual assessment method based on energy institute Guidelines (2008) and the experimental method to verify and validate the F.E. analysis results. Baldwin and Simmons. (1986) studied flow-induced vibration in safety relief valves (SRVs) in high-energy piping systems. They developed an analytical design procedure based on the Strouhal number, Mach number, and stub dimensions to eliminate the vibration problem in the existing system. Cicero et al. (2016) studied the effect of thermal cutting methods (oxyfuel, plasma, and laser cut technologies) on the fatigue behavior of structural steels. Then, the S-N results obtained were used to derive the corresponding BS7608 design classes. El-Borgi et al. (2021) established the F.E. model updating technique to minimize errors between the analyzed and measured responses. This model updating procedure was established iteratively by tuning the parameters associated with the assumed boundary conditions for the simulation until the computational F.E. model can replicate the system’s actual behavior. Gao and Hongquari (2020). Proposed an improved FEM approach for vibration analysis of a pipeline system subjected to multi-excitation, i.e., a pipeline subjected to both hydraulic pump pressure fluctuation and base excitation from the engine.

Haapaniemi Heikki et al. (2002) focused on the correlation between the simulated finite element model and modal testing measurement. The technique of Output-only modal analysis was established and verified to get the modal parameters of piping even when the system is in use. Jiang and Zhu. (2018) simulated a piping system model in FEA software. Based on the experimental modal testing, the simulated model was tuned to reflect the realistic boundary condition and modal properties. The simulated results comply with exploratory testing; hence, experimental modal testing can be used to calibrate the model for vibration analysis. Jiang et al. (2013). Describe an expert system for online monitoring and diagnosis of realistic vibration faults in reciprocating compressor systems with the help of facts and rules logic. Kedar Bhagwat and Gulave. (2017) proposed a method to reduce the acoustic and flow-induced vibrations in the piping system. Liu et al. (2020) developed and demonstrated an approach of vibration analysis for troubleshooting the severe vibration problem in the compressor station yard pipeline. The field vibration test verified the computer model. The best solution was based on the increasing natural frequency of the system by additional support constraints. Moon Seong-In et al. (2011) developed test specifications for components, which were applied to predict fatigue life for the unit brackets at the initial product design stage using a vibration fatigue technique.

Noh Byeongwook et al. (2006) studied the fatigue strength of load-carrying cruciform fillet welded joints for geometric or structural stress in the welded joint. The structural stress concentration factor for 1 mm below the surface was calculated by finite element analysis and compared to the basic fatigue resistance curve offered by BS7608 (2014). Martin et al. (2012) presented two methods for extracting the modal properties of the compressor yard pipeline based on experimental testing and the finite element method, respectively. The modal testing verified the simulated results. Tison and Atkins. (2001) presented various methods to mitigate vibration in reciprocating compressor piping systems. They explained the multiple limitations for getting accurate modal characteristics by computer simulation, e.g., natural frequencies. Wachel et al. (1986) conducted dynamic pressure and vibration measurements to diagnose the exact cause of vibration. Test measurement verified the mitigation solution for troubleshooting a complex vibration problem in piping connected with a reciprocating pump. Wang Qiang et al. (2016) investigated the dynamic strain measurement FBG sensors, confirming the excellent correlation with simulated results for modal parameters like natural frequencies. Fiber Bragg sensors are helpful for the health monitoring of small-bore hydraulic piping due to smaller additional mass. Adil and Alaeddin. (2010) presented a study to understand the effect of the high speed of a ship on the shipboard vibration, which can be unpleasant to passengers and crew members and additionally can cause malfunction and fatigue failure of the shipboard equipment and structures.

The current study demonstrates the methodology for vibration analysis of piping systems subjected to mechanical or base excitation. The excitation mechanism, like mechanical excitation due to connected reciprocating equipment and base excitation due to the ship, can generate a high vibration level, which can cause catastrophic fatigue failure. A dedicated design code for the shipboard piping system is not available. Hence, test standard MIL-STD-167-1 can guide the design and vibration analysis of the shipboard equipment’s pipework without a design code. A finite element model has been generated based on design parameters to generate dynamic characteristics and results. Experimental modal testing has been conducted to validate the modal properties. These modal properties can calibrate the simulated model to develop realistic results and validate the mitigation options. In this regard, the paper is organized as follows. Section 2 presents modal and harmonic response analysis of a finite element model of a piping loop system. Section 3 offers the experimental modal testing by modal hammer and FFT analyzer, which validate the piping system’s fundamental mode and corresponding natural frequency. Finally, Section 4 provides some concluding remarks regarding the finite element analysis methodology to generate accurate results and optimize the testing requirements.

2 Modal and harmonic response analysis

The piping with a vertical pipe loop is used at the ship, in the skid of reciprocating machinery or other equipment, where a loop is provided to absorb the thermal displacement or due to adjacent piping layout space constraints. In this study, an F.E. model of a piping system was generated in the ANSYS workbench based on the design parameters shown in Figure 1. This piping system consists of a vertical loop with four elbows, and the piping system material is Stainless steel. The F.E. model contains 47,719 nodes and 7,938 elements. The model’s mesh was created with sweep mesh, mostly Solid element Solid 186. The Fixed support boundary condition was kept at the start and end of the piping Loop model to simulate the stiff connection on the connected equipment.

2.1 Modal analysis of original pipe structure

Modal analysis determines a mechanical structure’s vibration characteristics (mode shape, natural frequency), e.g., a piping Loop. The natural frequency and mode shapes depend on the distribution of mass and stiffness in a piping system and boundary conditions considered in an F.E. simulation. Hence, to generate accurate results, calibration of simulated results is often required by experimental modal testing.

A fixed beam can represent the geometry (shown in Figure 1) as a 4-D system if each pipe element resembles a point element in a beam. This assumption holds when a straight pipe does not deform significantly in a radial direction. It is valid for various piping installations in the plant system in which flexibility is introduced by elbow elements only. Hence, this vertical pipe loop configuration can be idealized by 4-degree freedom system, where each axis is collinear to the bisector of each elbow. The extracted natural frequencies based on F.E. modal analysis are listed in Table 1.

Table 1. Natural frequency of original pipe structure.

Figure 2 shows the first mode shape of the piping loop system, which indicates maximum deformation in a Lateral direction(Y) at the center of the piping loop. The second mode shape in Figure 3 represents the bending mode in the longitudinal l(Z) direction. Other modes are second-order or complex vibration modes, which maintain a separation margin of more than 50% with the excitation frequency, and significant dynamic response is not expected for these modes mentioned in section 2.2.

2.2 Effect of separation margin on the dynamic response

The amplification factor represents the amplification of static response under a dynamic condition, which depends on the ratio of excitation to natural frequency and the damping factor in the system. The amplification factor for a simple dynamic system is shown in Eq. (1). It shows that the amplification factor reduces sharply with a ±20% separation margin. It can be seen in Figure 4 that for a separation margin of 40%, the amplification factor is 1.5 or less, which can go up to 20 without a separation margin for a critical damping ratio of 0.025. The amplification factor can be higher for lower damping values, i.e., for a 0.01% damping ratio, the amplification factor is 50.Amplification Factor (A.F) for Steady-state harmonic excitation

where, ω = Excitation frequency,

www.frontiersin.org

Figure 4. Effect of separation margin on amplification factor.

ωn = Natural frequency,

ξ = Critical damping ratio.

Hence, it shows that the accurate estimation of natural frequency is an essential step of dynamic analysis to derive accurate results from F.E. analysis. The sufficient separation margin between excitation and natural frequencies can maintain a dynamic response close to the static response.

2.3 Harmonic response analysis of original pipework

Modal results are linked to Harmonic analysis; a periodic excitation determines the structure’s response under a steady-state sinusoidal loading at a given frequency in harmonic response analysis. Harmonic response analysis mainly checks the excessive dynamic response due to mechanical resonance. This magnifies structural response in a lightly damped system when driven with a sinusoidal input at its natural frequencies. The paper will expose the piping system to prescribed frequency, and amplitude ranges to reveal critical response prominences or potential deficiencies.

MIL-STD-167-1A(2005) provides dynamic excitation force for shipboard equipment testing for hydrodynamic force imposed on the propeller blades interacting with the hull and by other sources. This standard provides an environment vibration amplitude sufficiently large for a selected frequency range to avoid malfunctioning shipboard equipment and connected piping systems on Naval Ships. Exploratory vibration and variable frequency tests specify the excitation frequency range and single excitation amplitudes to determine the presence of response prominence. Response prominence mainly represents a resonance or other distinct maximum in the form of transmissibility. In most cases, transmissibility greater than 1.5 is sufficient to classify a maximum as a response prominence, and for these systems, endurance testing is required. It is evident from Figure 4 that a separation margin of 40% or more can bring the transmissibility or amplification factor value to less than 1.5 and may omit the requirement of endurance testing.

MIL-STD-167-1A(2005) specifies the excitation frequency range and vibration amplitude as 4–33 Hz and 0.012 inches for exploratory vibration tests. This vibration amplitude is equal to 1.3 g acceleration at 33 Hz. Hence, on the conservative side, a 0.024-inch (0.6096 mm) excitation force in the lateral direction and excitation frequency range of 0–33 Hz has been considered for the harmonic response analysis (refer to Figure 5). This may cover more severe environmental conditions associated with ships of higher speed. The analysis result shows an amplitude of dynamic displacement and stress of 11.23 mm and 319 MPa (at 27 Hz), respectively, for a damping factor of 0.015. Displacement profile and stress contour for original pipework are shown in Figures 6, 7 respectively. It is equal to the transmissibility factor or response prominence of 18.4.

Figure 7

Figure 7. Output stress results: original pipework.

The BS7608[22] provides the basic design S-N curve to a particular structural detail class based on the type of stress for assessment (e.g., nominal, hot spot, or shear stress), local stress concentration, stress direction, residual stress, size and shape of discontinuity on piping, etc. The weld classes D and F2 are common in the piping system, representing the pipe without discontinuity and pipe with welded discontinuity, like shoe support and small-bore connection. The allowable endurance limit for weld class D & F2 is 80 and 35 MPa peak to peak (P-P), respectively, as per BS-7608. The standard basic design S-N curve is shown in Figure 8. It shows that with current support, the piping system will be subjected to fatigue failure, and this excessive vibration is required to be mitigated.

Figure 8
www.frontiersin.org

Figure 8. S-N curve for nominal stress as per BS7608[22].

This high transmissibility can be reduced by providing a restraint that increases the system’s natural frequency by shortening the free span length. The force required to restrain the pipework can be calculated based on a piping system’s inertial force (mass x acceleration) at a particular frequency. Restoring force exerted by the pipework at maximum displacement (N) =

F=4π2f2mx/1000

f = frequency of vibration = 27 Hz,

m = equivalent mass of pipework = 4.86 kg,

x = amplitude of vibration = 11.23 mm

F=4π22724.86x11.23 /1000
F=1569 N

Based on the formula, the force required to restrain the pipework is 1569 N, which can be considered 3138 N with a safety factor of 2.0. Hence, 3.138e+006 N/mm restraint stiffness can be considered in the F.E. model.

2.4 Modal analysis: pipe structure with damper

The pipework with the damper is shown in Figure 9.

Figure 9. F.E. Model for pipework with the damper.

The extracted natural frequencies for the modified system are shown in Table 2.

Table 2
www.frontiersin.org

Table 2. The natural frequency of pipework with the damper.

It shows that the second mode’s natural frequency is increased significantly after providing the restraint in the lateral direction. The problematic natural frequency, which was in the ±20% of the excitation frequency, has been deleted after adding the support. In the modified system, a minimum separation margin of 90% exists between the excitation frequency range and natural frequency. The comparison of natural frequencies for the original pipework and modified pipework is shown in Figure 10; Table 3. It shows that support in the lateral direction increases the second and fourth mode natural frequency.

www.frontiersin.org

Table 3. Comparison of natural frequency original vs. modified system.

2.5 Harmonic analysis: pipe structure with support

The harmonic analysis results show a significant reduction in dynamic response. The system’s displacement and stress amplitudes are 0.368 mm and 9.25 mm at 33 Hz, respectively. Displacement profile and stress contour for modified pipework are shown in Figures 11, 12 respectively.

Figure 11
www.frontiersin.org

Figure 11. Output displacement: modified pipework.

Figure 12
www.frontiersin.org

Figure 12. Output stress results: modified pipework.

The dynamic amplification factor or response prominence for this displacement is below 1, which omits the requirement of endurance testing. The response has been reduced due to the increased separation margin between forcing and natural frequency. The allowable endurance limit for weld class D & F2 is 80 and 35 MPa P-P, respectively, as per BS-7608. It shows that with additional support, the piping system will not fail due to fluctuating vibration loading.

3 Experimental testing of piping loop

Experimental work is carried out on the 3D vertical piping Loop sample with the help of a Modal hammer and FFT analyzer. The test has been performed in the laboratory to extract the modal properties (natural frequencies, mode shape) to verify simulated modal analysis results for extracted mechanical-natural frequency and corresponding modes.

For the experiment, one uni-directional accelerometer and modal hammer with an 8-channel data acquisition system with Dewesoft software (2022) were used to measure the frequency response function. The experimental modal testing setup and subparts are shown in Figure 13.

An instrumented impact hammer excites the pipe structure to extract the modes. Impact location was selected by first assessing the pipework layout and judging lower-order modes expected deflected shape. The results from the F.E. analysis were also added to the selection of impact locations. The frequency response function is used to identify detected modal/natural frequencies. An ideal modal frequency is indicated by the following.

• A peak in the FRF magnitude And

• an FRF phase change range of 90–180°

• Coherence close to one

The plot of the modal testing and subsequent analysis is shown in Figure 14, which shows an indication of a first modal frequency at 25 Hz. The Nyquist plot also indicates the presence of a mode at a particular frequency; points fitted on the circle indicate a well-defined mode.

4 Conclusion

➢ The study demonstrates the methodology for doing dynamic analysis of piping systems on ships, which may be subject to excessive vibration due to harmonic base excitation produced by hydrodynamic force imposed on the propeller blades interacting with the hull and by other sources. Without proper design code, this methodology is derived with the help of testing standard MIL-STD-167-1A.

➢ This analysis can also help optimize the testing requirement of MIL-STD-167-1A by calculating and optimizing the response prominence by finite element analysis. The dynamic simulation shows endurance testing is not required when the separation margin is more than 40% between the natural and excitation frequency since response prominence reduces below 1.5. In this way, testing is required for that piping system only where a separation margin of 40% can not be maintained between excitation frequency and natural frequency. This can help to avoid the testing of piping systems for which either testing is not feasible or not economically viable.

➢ Modal properties and dynamic response due to mechanical excitation or base excitation of the ship hull can be calculated by F.E. analysis. It shows that the dynamic response increases drastically with low damping at resonance, and the amplification factor is approximately 18 for a critical damping ratio of 0.015%. Additional support can reduce this amplification factor, and the mitigating option can be validated by F.E. analysis, hence optimizing the testing requirement.

➢ The fundamental natural frequency of the system is 27 Hz based on F.E. analysis, while it is 25 Hz based on experimental modal testing. This 8% error may be omitted by tweaking the boundary condition.

➢ The demonstrated analysis technique can be useful for mitigating the vibration problem in existing piping systems due to mechanical excitation (due to reciprocating equipment), or base excitation (base excitation due to ship hull structure), and it can also be utilized for the design of piping system against these vibration loadings. Hence, this technique can ensure environmental sustainability against catastrophic vibration events without a dedicated design code or methodology.
