  2. Leak detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak_detection

    Accuracy: Some LDS are able to calculate leak flow and leak location. This must be done accurately. Robustness: The LDS should continue to operate in non-ideal circumstances. For example, in case of a transducer failure, the system should detect the failure and continue to operate (possibly with necessary compromises such as reduced sensitivity).

  3. Tracer-gas leak testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracer-gas_leak_testing

    As well as airbags, the air conditioning system, fuel system, and exhaust system require testing for leaks. Pacemakers and catheters have to be tested for efficacy and longevity. On planes, tracer-gas leak testing is used to quickly and safely locate fuel leaks, [3] as well as to check oxygen distribution devices and cabin pressurization systems.

  4. Tracer use in the oil industry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracer_use_in_the_oil_industry

    In interwell tests, the tracer is injected at one well along with the carrier fluid (water in a waterflood or gas in a gasflood) and detected at a producing well after some period of time, which can be anything from days to years.

  5. Hydrographic survey - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrographic_survey

    The term hydrography is used synonymously to describe maritime cartography, which in the final stages of the hydrographic process uses the raw data collected through hydrographic survey into information usable by the end user. Hydrography is collected under rules which vary

  6. Tank leak detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_leak_detection

    The system analyses rates of change in tank contents (i.e. leakage into or out of the tank). If a leak is found when operating on a single wall system, the product will always be released to the environment before the leak is detected. For tanks there are 2 subclasses of the system.

  7. Custody transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Custody_transfer

    Custody transfer requires an entire metering system that is designed and engineered for the application, not just flowmeters. Components of a custody transfer system typically include: Multiple meters/meter runs; Flow computers; Quality systems (gas chromatographs to measure energy content of natural gas and sampling systems for liquid);

  8. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

    A hydrostatic test is a way in which pressure vessels such as pipelines, plumbing, gas cylinders, boilers and fuel tanks can be tested for strength and leaks. The test involves filling the vessel or pipe system with a liquid, usually water, which may be dyed to aid in visual leak detection , and pressurization of the vessel to the specified ...

  9. Hydrograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrograph

    A stream hydrograph is commonly determining the influence of different hydrologic processes on discharge from the subject catchment. Because the timing, magnitude, and duration of groundwater return flow differs so greatly from that of direct runoff, separating and understanding the influence of these distinct processes is key to analyzing and simulating the likely hydrologic effects of ...
