Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Technology Application Guide is designed to help the user select and apply leak detection and location equipment for pressurized, high-capacity, underground, fuel-pipelines typical of hydrant systems at Navy bases. Many variables must be considered when researching, selecting, and purchasing underground pipleline leak detection equipment. These variables include regulations, technology type, climate, soil type, groundwater, funding, and site logistics. At this time, there is no commercially available technology that meets all of the Navy's leak detection and location needs. Different leak detection and location problems can be solved with different technologies, including tracers, temperature-compensated pressure testing, and smart-pigging. This Technology Application Guide provides the user with the tools required for solving this problem. Specifically, the Guide explains: 1) How to determine the applicable pipeline leak detection regulations. 2) How the different leak detection and location technologies work. 3) Which technologies are best suited to solve different problems. 4) Which technologies are evolving for future applications. 5) Identify point of contacts for pipe leak detection (PLD) within the Department of Defense (DOD) and in private industry.

Download or read book Introduction to Pipeline Leak Detection written by Jun Zhang and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pipeline spills occur as pipeline infrastructure ages and more hazardous products are transported. Regrettably, too many leak detection systems fail to detect these leaks, and other leak detection systems are ignored by the operators because they are unreliable. Thus, leaks that should have been small spills become disasters that cost pipeline owners millions of dollars. The key to the successful operation of pipeline leak detection systems is management commitment that assures the allocation of sufficient resources to the ongoing maintenance of leak detection systems and their supporting components. Every pipeline operator should consider a role for a leak detection champion who understands how their system works, continually monitors its performance, and supports the Pipeline Controllers. The leak detection system is not "fit-and-forget" and it requires ongoing management which is best achieved in-house with vendor support. Building a companywide leak detection culture, where pipeline leak detection is understood and valued from the top ranks to the field operators will reduce loss of containment incidents. "Introduction to Pipeline Leak Detection" explains the key leak detection technologies deployed to detect leaks on pipelines today in simple concise language that is easily understood by everyone.

Through case analysis, practitioners can have a deeper understanding of the application of related technologies.
Download or read book Fluid Product Pipeline Leak Detection from Airborne Platforms written by Resources Technology Corporation and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computer simulation program in conjunction with an instrument systems analysis program lead to the conclusion that microwave radiometry working in concert with thermal infrared systems could detect petroleum product pipeline leaks. The utilization of these systems from an airborne platform would result in a low false alarm rate and a high probability of leak detection. A demonstration experiment was designed to test the simulation program. This demonstration was carried out in west Texas along three different pipeline sections with eighteen individual leak circumstances. All data, airborne and ground, was reduced, correlated and analyzed to demonstrate remote sensor capabilities. It was found that the apparent microwave (13.7 GHz) temperature of a leak increases significantly compared to surface material containing no oil. Also, a soil containing oil caused a decrease in polarization contrast. Thermal infrared showed a warm area surrounded by a cool halo. When these circumstances all occurred together a leak was identified, proving the correctness of the original computer simulations.

This book was released on 2020-10-25 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is focused predominantly on academicians, research scholars belong to science and engineering, managers, scientists, technicians, and other professionals in the field of qualitative research. This book is comprehended from different sources of research in Science and Technology. On the first occasion, the task of providing researchers with a broad view of the relationship between science and technology. The second reason for writing the book was the need to fill a gap in academics and research. While many excellent books, documents, and article exist for innovative practices, we have not found a work in which we can properly understand the content that the researcher needs to understand. So, after much deliberation, we decided to collect all quality efforts in one string. At the most basic level, this book is trying to show research scholars; what science, technology, and innovations are all about. It cannot study or gain knowledge of that part and is at a level that most researchers should find clear and understandable. Our goal was to develop content that will help researchers who are beginning to use innovative practices. We hope to meet the needs of academicians, research scholars who are being encouraged to incorporate more reading and writing in the field of science and technology. In summary, this book is targeted to the needs of individuals engaged in quality research activities in science and technology. Our goal is to present the topics of creativity and innovation to this audience in a way that enables them to incorporate new skills into their daily work. We would like to thank all the contributors who have made the production of this book so fascinating and enjoyable. Their scholarship and dedicated commitment and motivation to ‘getting it right’ are the keys to the book’s quality, and we greatly appreciate their good nature over many months in the face of our editorial demands and time limits. We are also grateful for using their texts, ideas, and critical remarks We would also like to thank Prof Dr Nilam N Ghuge, Prof Dr D Ayub Khan Dawood, Prof Dr Vilas A Pharande, all reviewers and all authors for their help in consolidating the interdisciplinary of the book. We are grateful to all the 18 institutions for their support. It will not be possible to bring out this edition.
