Abstract

The invention discloses a buoyancy block surface structure for reducing ocean current resistance borne by a waterproof pipe column. The buoyancy block surface structure comprises a buoyancy block (1) of the waterproof pipe column. The external diameter D of the buoyancy block (1) ranges from 0.9144 m to 1.397 m. Multiple triangular grooves (2) are formed in the column face of the buoyancy block (1) in the length direction of the buoyancy block and evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the buoyancy block (1). The depth h of each triangular groove (2) is (0.01 to 0.03) D, the width d of each triangular groove (2) is (0.05 to 0.1) D, and the number n of the triangular grooves (2) ranges from 15 to 30. The buoyancy block surface structure has the advantages that the ocean current resistance borne by the waterproof pipe column is reduced, so that connection bearing reaction of the end of the waterproof pipe column is reduced, vortex-induced vibration of the waterproof pipe column is lowered, the service life of the waterproof pipe column is prolonged, and an element does not need to be additionally arranged on the waterproof pipe column.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of reducing the resistance of ocean currents to riser strings, in particular to a buoyancy block surface structure for reducing the resistance of ocean currents to riser strings. Background technique [0002] With the development of offshore oil and gas from shallow seas to deep seas of 1000-3000 meters, the length of the riser string, as an important channel for offshore oil and gas development, has also greatly increased, and correspondingly, the resistance to flow around it under such a long length cannot be ignored. Especially for the increase of the connection support reaction force at the end of the riser string and the enhancement of vortex-induced vibration. The huge resistance caused by the bypass flow will definitely have an adverse effect on the stability, safety and service life of the water supply pipe. Therefore, the research on drag reduction control of deep water riser string is very importa...
