Abstract

Pipelines are one of great important components for gas and petrochemical industries. Normally, they are used to transport gas by hundreds or even thousands of miles. It is a momentous task to keep the gas pipeline under safety operation. Leak detection and localization mechanisms play an important role in the management of a gas pipeline system. In this paper, wavelet transform was used to detect local singularities in the pressure time history due to the presence of a leak. In order to test the performance of the proposed method, a practical test rig has been built. The experiment results showed the accurate and robustness of the proposed leak detection and localization methodology.
