Table 1

The influence of each parameter on the magnetic anomaly.

Model parametersRangeWith the increase in the parameter

Pipeline buried depth (mm)2-3.5Fluctuation decreases
Existence of permanent magnetsNonexistent-existentObvious fluctuation
Pipeline outer diameter (mm)500-700Fluctuation decreases
Pipeline wall thickness (mm)4-10Fluctuation decreases
Pipeline length (m)60-75Fluctuation almost remains the same
Pipeline permeability100-900Fluctuation decreases
Number of permanent magnets2-6Fluctuation increases at the center of the measuring line and almost unchanged at both ends
Polarity of permanent magnetsHorizontal-verticalFluctuation is negligible
Magnetic intensity (nT)21000-69000Fluctuation almost remains the same
Magnetic dip−80°~80°Fluctuation decreases first and then increases
Magnetic declination−25°~25°Fluctuation almost remains the same
Detection height in the experiment0.5 m-1.2 mFluctuation decreases
