AC Interference Modelling and Analysis

AC Interference Modelling and Analysis

At Stancer Testing-Lab, we specialize in comprehensive AC interference modeling and analysis to ensure the safety and reliability of pipeline systems. Using advanced numerical modeling with the FDTD method, we provide accurate predictions and customized solutions to mitigate AC interference risks.

In the modern energy transportation systems, the coexistence of high-voltage transmission lines and buried pipelines within joint corridors presents a significant challenge due to AC interference. This phenomenon, where alternating current (AC) from transmission lines induces unwanted voltages and currents in nearby pipelines, can lead to accelerated corrosion, compromised structural integrity, and safety hazards. Addressing AC interference is paramount to maintaining the reliability and safety of pipeline systems.

Importance of AC Interference Modeling and Analysis

Effective AC interference modelling and analysis are crucial for:

  • Ensuring Safety:

    Preventing hazardous voltages that could pose risks to maintenance personnel and the public.

  • Protecting Infrastructure:

    Mitigating accelerated corrosion and potential structural damage to pipelines.

  • Compliance:

    Adhering to industry standards and regulations to avoid legal and financial repercussions.
