Resumo
Pipelines have been widely used for the transportation of chemical products, mainly those related to the petroleum industry. Damage in such pipelines can produce leakage with unpredictable consequences to the environment. There are different structural health monitoring (SHM) systems such as Lamb wave, comparative vacuum, acoustic emission, etc. for monitoring such structures. However, those based on piezoelectric sensors and electromechanical impedance technique (EMI) measurements are simple and efficient, and have been applied in a wide range of structures, including pipes. A disadvantage of such technique is that temperature changes can lead to false diagnoses. To overcome this disadvantage, temperature variation compensation techniques are normally incorporated. Therefore, this work has developed a complete study applied to damage detection in pipelines, including an innovative technique for compensating the temperature effect in EMI-based SHM and the modeling of piezoceramics bonded to pipeline structures using finite elements. Experimental results were used to validate the model. Moreover, the compensation method was tested in two steel pipes—healthy and damaged—compensating the temperature effect ranging from —40 ºC to +80 ºC, with analysis on the frequency range from 5 kHz to 120 kHz. The simulated and experimental results showed that the studies effectively contribute to the SHM area, mainly to EMI-based techniques.
