Abstract

The sandwich pipe is a pipeline concept and consists of two concentric steel pipes separated by and affixed to a polymeric annulus, which provides the sufficient structural strength. The designing sandwich pipe is a very complex problem in the current scenario. The usage of sandwich pipes is increased for water depth beyond 1500 m. Modelling of pipes is done using CATIA V5 software. Static analysis is done in ANSYS to determine the deformation by applying pressure on both the inner and outer pipe. In this paper, the static analysis is done in ANSYS to determine the deformation by applying pressure on both the inner and outer pipe. Deformation capacity is one of the essential criteria for a deepwater pipeline. The objective of this paper is to determine the optimum combination of input parameters using Taguchi analysis.
