Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of buried pipeline micro-leakage detection, and in particular to a buried pipeline micro-leakage detection method and system based on resonance cavity modulation. Background Art
[0002] Buried pipelines have the advantages of large transportation volume, low cost, and little impact from external conditions such as weather, so they are often used in the transportation of water, oil, gas and other substances. However, during the long-term operation and service of buried pipelines, they are often affected by factors such as corrosion, vibration, and stress fatigue, and are prone to leakage accidents, resulting in economic losses, environmental pollution, and even casualties. Therefore, the earlier the leakage accident is detected, the smaller the loss will be. Therefore, if effective detection can be carried out at the initial stage of pipeline leakage, the harm and loss of the accident will be effectively reduced, which is of great significance to the normal operation of the pipeline and the safety of the people.
[0003] At present, a variety of pipeline leakage detection methods have been developed, such as tracer method, infrared thermal imaging method, pipeline internal detector method, mass (flow) balance method, pressure point analysis method, optical fiber method and acoustic method, etc. Compared with other methods, the acoustic method is easy to install and maintain, does not require a large amount of excavation of the soil above the pipeline, and has certain advantages in the field of buried pipeline leakage detection.
[0004] The principle of most acoustic methods at present is: regard the leak point on the pipeline as the sound source, install an acoustic sensor on the pipeline, and passively receive the sound emitted by the leak point, and then perform detection. This method is generally suitable for large leaks, that is, it is assumed that the leak point can emit a strong enough sound. However, for some buried pipelines, due to the low gas pressure inside the pipeline or the compact soil above the pipeline, the sound emitted by the initial small leak is very weak and easily disturbed by noise. In this case, it is difficult to detect small leaks in the pipeline. Summary of the invention
[0005] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a method and system for detecting tiny leaks in buried pipelines based on resonance cavity modulation. The sound waves are nonlinearly modulated and amplified through the resonance cavity formed by the tiny leakage holes in the pipeline and the soil, which can greatly improve the detection and identification capabilities of tiny leaks. The system has the advantages of being able to resist noise interference, detect tiny leaks, and visualize the location of tiny leaks on the pipeline.
