Effect of various parameters on the inductive induced voltage and current on pipelines

Considerable research has been conducted on the issues of induced voltage on the pipelines which are close to the high voltage power lines. It has been found that the induced voltage and current on the pipeline are determined by many parameters. This paper presents a comprehensive study on how the various parameters affect the induced voltage and current on the pipelines. In the system modeling part, a circuit model for multiple-pipeline section-model is employed. In this model, not only the perfect parallel case, but also a more realistic case with approaches, crossing as well as removals is considered. 2 cases are studied in this paper. The results of steady state induced voltage and current have demonstrated the effect of different parameters.
