【 摘 要 】

Increasing the reliability and improving of the technical characteristics of bellows and bellows expansion joints widely used in various fields of technology is a recent issue today. To solve this issue, a physico-mathematical model of functioning and measuring the reliability performance of bellows expansion joints is developed. The model includes two mechanisms of fatigue breakdown and wear: the Rehbinder effect and fretting. The developed model allows for calculating cyclic operation life for different bellows expansion joints. The model describes bellows expansion joints by three parameters: growth rate of a microcrack due to the Rehbinder effect, speed of fretting wear, and value of reversible period of microcracks formation. One can experimentally measure these parameters for different constructions and technologies of manufacturing of bellows expansion joints. Today, there are various technologies of bellows expansion joints manufacturing, including promising technologies of modification using fluoro-organic surfactants. The developed model is applied for assessment of different manufacturing technologies. Based on the analysis of the physico-mathematical model, the requirements for technologies are defined that lead to increasing of reliability of bellows expansion joints. The technologies of modification using fluoro-organic surfactants are theoretically proved to lead to increasing of the reliability performance of bellows expansion joints.
