Oil and gas pipelines are very important for fuel transportation, however leakages in them may lead to life and property losses due to the release of the energy they contain. Reliable leak detection and localization techniques that effectively…
Ultrasonic guided waves can propagate over long distances in process pipe and have demonstrated excellent sensitivity to viscous coatings on the inner surface of piping commonly used in the processing of dairy products. This technology shows…
The ultrasonic thickness measurement technique is a corrosion monitoring technology, which is widely used, but testing workers have been troubled by how to accurately locate corrosion of key parts. In this paper, the acoustic emission technique was…
Tank floor corrosion has been a significant risk of petroleum and petrochemical industry. For tank floor inspection, acoustic emission qualitative methods is generally in the industry, which have some problems such as lack of accuracy. In this paper,…
A key element in the safe operation of a modern gas distribution system is gas detection. The addition of hydrogen to natural gas will alter the characteristics of the fuel and, therefore, its impact on gas detection must be considered. It is…
Hyperspectral remote sensing images can indirectly detect underground natural gas leakage through the spectral and spatial variation of surface vegetation. However, due to the complexity of surface environment and the phenomenon of "different samples…
Recent studies have shown that underground natural gas storage leaks can be indirectly detected through the spectral changes of surface vegetation. However, due to the phenomenon of different samples demonstrating the same spectrum, using a…
