Özet
This research investigates the effectiveness of composite coatings in preventing corrosion in petroleum pipelines, focusing on computational methods for thermal and structural analysis. A 3-meter section of a Basra, Iraq pipeline was selected for evaluation. The study begins by establishing a baseline with an uncoated pipeline, followed by applying composite coatings both internally and externally. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is used to assess structural integrity under high pressure and to perform a detailed numerical heat transfer analysis over a 15-year operational period. The thermal analysis evaluates the temperature distribution and thermal stresses that contribute to coating degradation and pipeline failure. By integrating Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE), this study demonstrates the critical role of advanced computational tools in modeling heat transfer phenomena and enhancing pipeline safety and durability. The findings provide actionable insights for optimizing coating technologies with a focus on thermal performance in real-world applications.
