Description of the development of an experimental stand for the detection of defects in pipelines

The article discusses a bench that allows you to monitor the change in the dynamic characteristics of the medium when various types of defects appear in the connection lines. The setting makes it possible to select the optimal method for recording the measured values. The experimental stand was created as close as possible to the real conditions of the pipeline operation. To detect damage to the air circuit, the integration of technical developments with a software algorithm based on the use of the multiple signal classification method (MUSIC) was applied. The developed stand opens up opportunities for conducting practical experiments and obtaining experimental data directly when detecting pipeline defects.
