Abstract In the low and medium pressure urban gas pipe network, transporting the hydrogen-blended natural gas through polyethylene pipe is an important means to realize the large-scale delivery and utilization of hydrogen-blended natural gas. However, due to the characteristics of polymer material, polyethylene pipes will experience aging phenomenon, which will lead to the deterioration of performance and eventually result in brittle damage and failure. Therefore, it is of great significance to analyze and predict the lifetime of polyethylene pipe due to the aging in the hydrogen-blended natural gas environment to ensure the safe transportation.

Abstract This study analyzed the partial effect of carbon dioxide hydrate in reaction kettle experiments. The particle and bubble characteristics of the crystal nucleus during carbon dioxide hydrate decomposition were observed under the microscope. The results showed that in the temperature range of 0.5°C–3.5°C, the pressure range of 3 MPa– 5.5 MPa, phase characteristics in the reaction kettle changed in a complex fashion during carbon dioxide hydrate formation. During hydrate decomposition, numerous carbon dioxide bubbles were produced, mainly by precipitation at high temperatures or in the hydrate cage structure. The hydrate crystal nucleus initially exhibited fluidity More >
