Loss of energy, decrement of efficiency, and decrement of the effective diameter of the oil pipe are among the consequences of scale inside oil condensate transfer pipes. To prevent these incidents and their consequences and take timely action, it is important to detect the amount of scale. One of the accurate diagnosis methods is the use of non-invasive systems based on gamma-ray attenuation. The detection method proposed in this research consists of a detector that receives the radiation sent by the gamma source with dual energy (radioisotopes 241Am and 133Ba) after passing through the test pipe with inner scale (in different thicknesses). This structure was simulated by Monte Carlo N Particle code. The simulation performed in the test pipe included a three-phase flow consisting of water, gas, and oil in a stratified flow regime in different volume percentages. The signals received by the detector were processed by wavelet transform, which provided sufficient inputs to design the radial basis function (RBF) neural network. The scale thickness value deposited in the pipe can be predicted with an MSE of 0.02. The use of a detector optimizes the structure, and its high accuracy guarantees the usefulness of its use in practical situations. |
