Cracks in engineered pipelines often appear in the form of multiple cracks or crack clusters with interactions between them. It is important to study the interaction between cracks if the pipeline crack cluster is to be evaluated in terms of equivalence and safety assessment. In this paper, based on FRANC3D crack analysis software, the interaction between circumferential parallel double cracks on the inner surface of pipelines was investigated, the factors affecting the interaction were examined, and the empirical equations for calculating the stress intensity factor (SIF) of double cracks was proposed. The results show that if there is no bias between the double cracks, the crack leading edge is shielded, but if there is offset between the double cracks, the crack leading edge is subjected to different interactions at different locations. The distal end of the cracks is generally strengthened, while the proximal end of the cracks is probably more shielded. The interaction effects between cracks are dependent on their relative positions rather than the pipe size or concerned crack size. According to the numerical simulation, boundaries for shielding or enhancing interactions were obtained, and the stress intensity factor calculation equations were fitted.
