Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of gas leak monitoring technology, and in particular to a method and system for monitoring and early warning of gas leak concentration. Background Technology

[0002] During the long-term transportation of urban gas pipelines, the transported gas often carries inherent risks. Pipelines themselves are susceptible to corrosion or human-caused damage, potentially leading to accidents such as ruptures, perforations, and leaks. Furthermore, due to the flammable and explosive nature of natural gas, leaks can easily trigger fires and explosions, posing a serious threat to people's lives and property. However, existing gas leak detection technologies fail to optimize the placement of gas concentration sensors for specific environments and neglect the impact of ambient wind speed and direction on gas leak concentration detection.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN110107815B discloses a method and device for detecting leaks in gas pipelines, which relates to the field of gas pipeline leak monitoring technology. The method includes the following steps: detecting the concentration of combustible gas in underground spaces around multiple gas pipelines; determining whether the concentration of combustible gas meets the leakage conditions; if the leakage conditions are met, determining that the gas pipeline is leaking, and obtaining and reporting the current leak location.

[0004] A Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN111076096B discloses a method for identifying gas pipeline leaks, including the following steps: S1, collecting gas leak concentration data, time data, and spatial data of each pipe section in the gas pipeline network; S2, setting initial parameters, including a gas leak concentration threshold, leak level classification, time window, and spatial radius; S3, based on the initial parameters, performing spatiotemporal clustering analysis on the gas leak concentration data, time data, and spatial data of each pipe section in the gas pipeline network using the DBSCAN algorithm; S4, calculating the average leak level of leak points in the gas pipeline network based on the clustering analysis results to identify high-risk areas; S5, optimizing the initial parameters based on the given average leak level, and repeating steps S3 to S5 after optimization; S6, outputting the identification result until the calculated average leak level meets the given average leak level. All of the above patents suffer from the problem raised in this background: existing gas leak monitoring technologies fail to optimize the layout of gas concentration sensors according to specific environments and ignore the influence of ambient wind speed and direction on gas leak concentration detection.
