What is it about?

This paper studies the passive electromagnetic damper effects on the behavior of a pipeline conveying fluid. In this work, a uniform cantilever Euler–Bernoulli beam, a follower force, and a transversal force are utilized for modeling of the pipe, fluid force, and electromagnetic damping force, respectively. The passive electromagnetic damper includes a permanent-magnet DC motor, a ball screw, and a nut.

Why is it important?

The most important purpose of this study is first to decrease the pipe vibration amplitude resulting from the fluid velocity and then transform the dissipated energy into the electric energy.

Perspectives

The results of simulation showed that the passive electromagnetic damper can simultaneously reduce the pipeline vibration and store energy up to 4.3 [mW] for low fluid flow velocity.
