| Summary: | A new method is proposed for coating the inner surface of pipes in a confined space in which a sloping position of the pipe is expected during the process. Mathematical modeling of non-pressure fluid flow in an inclined pipe was carried out. The method implies controlled outflow of the material being applied and simultaneous rotation of the pipe being worked. The thickness of the coating depends on the velocity of the material flow along the inner surface of the pipe. The dependence of the fluid velocity on the radius of the pipe being worked and the level height in the filling column is calculated. The results of calculating the analytical dependence in the Mathcad application are presented. Dependence diagrams of material flow are presented for various design parameters that make it possible to determine the operating practices in the process of applying the coating. Uniform coating is obtained due to constant velocity of the material flow along the full length of the pipe. The obtained graphs were analyzed and the direction of further research connected with the influence of rotational velocity and fluid viscosity was determined. The use of the proposed method makes it possible to increase labor productivity and improve the quality of protective coating. |
