Abstract
Principle of the pipeline leak detection system is presented, and the leak detection method based on acoustic wave and wavelet analysis is studied in this paper. The dynamic pressure transmitter based on piezoelectric dynamic pressure transducer is designed. The characteristic of dynamic pressure transmitter when pipeline leak happened is analyzed. The dynamic pressure signal is suitable for pipeline leak detection for quick-change of pipeline internal pressure, while the static pressure is suitable for slow-change of pipeline internal pressure. The signal is analyzed by wavelet analysis method to detect the singularity, and the singularity is used to recognize and locate the leak. This paper indicated that the dynamic pressure signal could be adjust to this detection that the pressure changes in the pipeline. Field tests in 68.2 km pipeline segment show that the method detects pipeline leak rapidly and precisely.
