For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0067] In the process of realizing the present invention, the inventors found that the prior art monitors hydrogen leakage through manual inspections or the installation of hydrogen leakage detection alarms. However, for scenarios such as hydrogen transmission pipelines, hydrogen-blended natural gas pipelines, hydrogen storage wells and other small spaces, it is not easy to carry out manual inspections or manual inspections are difficult to detect, and it is not easy to install hydrogen leakage detection alarms, making it difficult to detect and locate hydrogen leakage in a timely manner.

[0068] In view of the above problems, a hydrogen leakage detection system is provided in an embodiment of the present invention, characterized in that it includes: a hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape, which is attached to the connection of the hydrogen pipeline, used to sense the hydrogen leaked at the connection of the hydrogen pipeline, and changes color according to the concentration of the leaked hydrogen to display a color signal; a hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism, which is used to monitor the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape, collect the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape, and convert the collected color signal into an electrical signal; a compact optical path, which is used to increase the effective monitoring area of ​​the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism; a distance judgment module, which is used to judge whether the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism is less than a preset distance value; a control module, which is used to judge whether hydrogen leakage occurs according to the electrical signal output by the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism.

The hydrogen leak detection system attaches hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape to places where hydrogen is likely to leak, and monitors whether there is hydrogen leakage by collecting the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape. The hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape can be installed in a small space, and the compact optical path can increase the effective monitoring area of ​​the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape.

[0069] Example 1

[0070] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the hydrogen leakage detection system provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a hydrogen leak detection system, comprising:

[0071] The hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is attached to the connection of the hydrogen pipeline to sense the hydrogen leaked at the connection of the hydrogen pipeline, and changes color in response to the concentration of the leaked hydrogen to display a color signal;

[0072] A hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism, used to monitor the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, collect color signals of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, and convert the collected color signals into electrical signals;

[0073] A compact optical pathway 160 for increasing the effective monitoring area of ​​the hydrogen sensitive color change sensing mechanism;

[0074] A distance judgment module, used to judge whether the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism is less than a preset distance value compact optical path 160;

[0075] A control module, used to determine whether hydrogen leakage occurs according to the electrical signal output by the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism;

[0076] The hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism has a detachably installed compact optical pathway 160, and the compact optical pathway 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism when the distance judgment module determines that the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism is less than a preset distance value.

[0077] Specifically, the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is made of a hydrogen-sensitive leakage detection material so that it has a color-changing response characteristic to hydrogen leakage. As the concentration of leaked hydrogen increases, the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 changes from light blue to dark blue.

[0078] When there is no need to install the compact optical pathway 160 in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism; when there is a need to install the compact optical pathway 160 in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism to form a compact hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, and the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the compact hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism.

[0079] In this embodiment, Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the structure of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism provided in Example 1 of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the hydrogen-sensitive color change sensing mechanism includes: a light source assembly 110, an RGB photoelectric sensor 140, a convex lens 130 and a concave lens 120;

[0080] The light source assembly 110 is used to illuminate the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200;

[0081] The concave lens 120 is disposed between the light source assembly 110 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 ; the concave lens 120 is used to diverge the light path generated by the light source assembly 110 .

[0082] The RGB photoelectric sensor 140 is disposed above the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, and is used to collect the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, and convert the collected color signal into an electrical signal, and analyze the electrical signal to obtain the color R value, G value and B value;

[0083] The convex lens 130 is disposed between the RGB photoelectric sensor 140 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 . The convex lens 130 is used to gather the light path reflected by the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 so that the light can be collected by the RGB photoelectric sensor 140 .

[0084] For hydrogen pipelines, hydrogen-blended natural gas pipelines, hydrogen storage wells and other scenarios, it is required that the protruding height of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor components should be ≤2cm after installation, so as to facilitate the subsequent application of anti-corrosion coatings. If the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor components are too close to the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing functional tape, the effective detection area will be greatly reduced.

[0085] In this embodiment, Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structure of a hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism provided in Example 1 of the present invention with a compact optical path installed. Figure 3 As shown, the compact optical path 160 includes a plurality of total reflection mirrors 161, the angles of which can be flexibly adjusted. By adjusting the angles of the total reflection mirrors, the light path emitted by the light source assembly 110 is vertically irradiated on the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, thereby increasing the effective light irradiation area on the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200. The total reflection mirrors 161 can allow the light path generated by the light source assembly 110 to irradiate a larger area on the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, and can allow the color signal reflected on the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 to be received by the RGB photoelectric sensor 140 in a larger range.

[0086] In this embodiment, the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism includes:

[0087] The first distance is the distance between the light source assembly 110 and the concave lens 120;

[0088] The second distance is the distance between the concave lens 120 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200;

[0089] The third distance is the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the convex lens 130;

[0090] The fourth distance is the distance between the convex lens 130 and the RGB photoelectric sensor 140 .

[0091] In this embodiment, the distance determination module is specifically used for:

[0092] It is determined whether the sum of the first distance and the second distance is less than the first preset distance value, or it is determined whether the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is less than the second preset distance value.

[0093] In this embodiment, judging whether the compact optical path 160 needs to be installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism according to the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism includes:

[0094] When the sum of the first distance and the second distance is less than or equal to the first preset distance value or the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is less than or equal to the second preset distance value, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism.

[0095] Specifically, the compact optical path 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color change sensing mechanism, including:

[0096] When the sum of the first distance and the second distance is less than or equal to the first preset distance value but the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is greater than the second preset distance value, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the light source assembly 110 and the concave lens 120 or the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the concave lens 120 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200;

[0097] When the sum of the first distance and the second distance is greater than the first preset distance value but the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is less than or equal to the second preset distance value, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the convex lens 130 or the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the convex lens 130 and the RGB photoelectric sensor 140;

[0098] When the sum of the first distance and the second distance is less than or equal to the first preset distance value and the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is less than or equal to the second preset distance value, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the light source assembly 110 and the concave lens 120 or the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the concave lens 120 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the convex lens 130 or the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the convex lens 130 and the RGB photoelectric sensor 140.

[0099] In this embodiment, the first preset distance value and the second preset distance value are both 100 mm.

[0100] When it is not necessary to install the compact optical pathway 160 in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, and the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the RGB photoelectric sensor 140, and converted into R value, G value and B value; when it is necessary to install the compact optical pathway 160 in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism to form a compact hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the compact hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, and the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the RGB photoelectric sensor 140, and converted into R value, G value and B value, and the R value, G value and B value are transmitted to the control module through the electrical signal transmission line 150.

[0101] In this embodiment, the control module is specifically used to determine whether hydrogen leakage occurs according to the R value, G value and B value obtained by analyzing the RGB photoelectric sensor.

[0102] In this embodiment, judging whether hydrogen leakage occurs according to the R value, G value and B value obtained by the RGB photoelectric sensor includes:

[0103] Obtaining an initial R value, an initial G value, and an initial B value of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 at an initial moment;

[0104] Collecting the detection R value, detection G value and detection B value of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 after a preset time period;

[0105] Obtain a changed R value according to the initial R value and the detected R value, obtain a changed G value according to the initial G value and the detected G value, and obtain a changed B value according to the initial B value and the detected B value;

[0106] Determine whether the change R value exceeds the first preset threshold, whether the change G value exceeds the second preset threshold, or whether the change B value exceeds the third preset threshold; if so, determine that hydrogen leakage occurs.

[0107] In this embodiment, the first preset threshold, the second preset threshold and the third preset threshold are all positive numbers.

[0108] Right now:

[0109] R t0 -R t0+t >m or G t0 -G t0+t >n

[0110] Among them, R t0 and G t0 are the initial R value and initial G value of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 at time t0 (initial time), R t0+t and G t0+t It is the detection R value and detection G value of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 after t time (preset time period). In order to ensure the effectiveness of the alarm and avoid false alarms, t can usually be 0.1s, 0.2s, 0.3s, 0.4s, ..., 1.8s, 1.9s, 2.0s. The m and n values ​​are the color change judgment threshold points (m is the first preset threshold, n is the second preset threshold), and both are positive numbers.

[0111] In an embodiment of the present invention, the hydrogen leakage detection system further includes an alarm module, and the alarm module is used to calculate the risk level of hydrogen leakage when hydrogen leakage occurs, and perform an alarm action according to the risk level of hydrogen leakage.

[0112] In this embodiment, the calculation of the risk level of hydrogen leakage includes:

[0113] Calculate the R value discoloration rate of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 according to the changed R value;

[0114] Calculate the G value color change rate of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 according to the changed G value;

[0115] Calculate the B value color change rate of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 according to the changed B value;

[0116] The risk level of hydrogen leakage is obtained according to the R value color change rate, the G value color change rate or the B value color change rate of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200.

[0117] The calculation formula of R value color change rate is:

[0118] R RL =(R t0 -R t0+t ) / t;

[0119] Similarly: The calculation formula for the G value color change rate is:

[0120] G RL =(G t0 -G t0+t ) / t.

[0121] The risk level of hydrogen leakage can be obtained according to one of the R value color change rate, G value color change rate or B value color change rate of the hydrogen sensitive color changing tape 200. Specifically, the R value color change rate, G value color change rate or B value color change rate respectively correspond to three risk level tables, and the risk level corresponding to the color change rate obtained by querying and calculating the risk table.

[0122] As shown in Table 1 and Table 2, Table 1 is a table of risk levels corresponding to the R value color change rate, and Table 2 is a table of risk levels corresponding to the G value color change rate.

[0123] Table 1: Risk level table corresponding to the R value discoloration rate

[0124] <![CDATA[R RL Value]]> Risk Level ≤10 Low risk 10~30 Medium risk 30~40 High risk ≥40 Emergent Risk

[0125] Table 2: Risk level table corresponding to the G value color change rate

[0126]

[0127]

[0128] In this embodiment, a corresponding alarm action is executed according to the risk level obtained by the query.

[0129] When hydrogen leakage is confirmed, the control module transmits the hydrogen leakage alarm information and hydrogen leakage risk level signal to the central control system, and the central control system takes corresponding interlocking measures. When the risk is low or medium, the risk level change should be continuously tracked. If the risk level remains basically unchanged, the original state can be maintained unchanged; if it is a medium risk, the hydrogen scene operator should strengthen the inspection of the leakage alarm point; if it is a high risk, the hydrogen leakage point should be cut off from the hydrogen system as much as possible, and corresponding pressure relief and treatment measures should be taken to avoid further expansion of hydrogen leakage; if it is an emergency risk, emergency parking should be taken immediately, and the corresponding hydrogen supply should be cut off. The residual hydrogen in the hydrogen system should be discharged through the emergency relief outlet as soon as possible.

[0137] S5. When it is determined that a hydrogen leak has occurred, calculate the risk level of the hydrogen leak;

[0138] S6. Execute alarm action according to the risk level of hydrogen leakage.

[0139] The method is implemented by applying a hydrogen leakage detection system, and the hydrogen leakage detection system comprises:

[0140] The hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is attached to the connection of the hydrogen pipeline to sense the hydrogen leaked at the connection of the hydrogen pipeline, and changes color in response to the concentration of the leaked hydrogen to display a color signal;

[0141] A hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism, used to monitor the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, collect color signals of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, and convert the collected color signals into electrical signals;

[0142] A compact optical pathway 160 for increasing the effective monitoring area of ​​the hydrogen sensitive color change sensing mechanism;

[0143] A distance judgment module, used to judge whether the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism is less than a preset distance value compact optical path 160;

[0144] A control module, used to determine whether hydrogen leakage occurs according to the electrical signal output by the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism;

[0145] The hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism has a detachably installed compact optical pathway 160, and the compact optical pathway 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism when the distance judgment module determines that the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism is less than a preset distance value.

[0146] Specifically, the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is made of a hydrogen-sensitive leakage detection material so that it has a color-changing response characteristic to hydrogen leakage. As the concentration of leaked hydrogen increases, the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 changes from light blue to dark blue.

[0147] When there is no need to install the compact optical pathway 160 in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism; when there is a need to install the compact optical pathway 160 in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism to form a compact hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, and the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the compact hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism.

[0148] In this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the hydrogen-sensitive color change sensing mechanism includes: a light source assembly 110, an RGB photoelectric sensor 140, a convex lens 130 and a concave lens 120;

[0149] The light source assembly 110 is used to illuminate the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200;

[0150] The concave lens 120 is disposed between the light source assembly 110 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 ; the concave lens 120 is used to diverge the light path generated by the light source assembly 110 .

[0151] The RGB photoelectric sensor 140 is disposed above the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, and is used to collect the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, and convert the collected color signal into an electrical signal, and analyze the electrical signal to obtain the color R value, G value and B value;

[0152] The convex lens 130 is disposed between the RGB photoelectric sensor 140 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 . The convex lens 130 is used to gather the light path reflected by the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 so that the light can be collected by the RGB photoelectric sensor 140 .

[0153] For hydrogen pipelines, hydrogen-blended natural gas pipelines, hydrogen storage wells and other scenarios, it is required that the protruding height of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor components should be ≤2cm after installation, so as to facilitate the subsequent application of anti-corrosion coatings. If the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor components are too close to the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing functional tape, the effective detection area will be greatly reduced.

[0154] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the compact optical path 160 includes a plurality of total reflection mirrors 161, the angles of which can be flexibly adjusted. By adjusting the angles of the total reflection mirrors, the light path emitted by the light source assembly 110 is vertically irradiated on the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, thereby increasing the effective light irradiation area on the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200. The total reflection mirrors 161 can allow the light path generated by the light source assembly 110 to irradiate a larger area on the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200, and can allow the color signal reflected on the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 to be received by the RGB photoelectric sensor 140 in a larger range.

[0155] In this embodiment, the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism includes:

[0156] The first distance is the distance between the light source assembly 110 and the concave lens 120;

[0157] The second distance is the distance between the concave lens 120 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200;

[0158] The third distance is the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the convex lens 130;

[0159] The fourth distance is the distance between the convex lens 130 and the RGB photoelectric sensor 140 .

[0160] In this embodiment, the distance determination module is specifically used for:

[0161] It is determined whether the sum of the first distance and the second distance is less than the first preset distance value, or it is determined whether the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is less than the second preset distance value.

[0162] In this embodiment, judging whether the compact optical path 160 needs to be installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism according to the distance between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism includes:

[0163] When the sum of the first distance and the second distance is less than or equal to the first preset distance value or the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is less than or equal to the second preset distance value, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensor mechanism.

[0164] Specifically, the compact optical path 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color change sensing mechanism, including:

[0165] When the sum of the first distance and the second distance is less than or equal to the first preset distance value but the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is greater than the second preset distance value, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the light source assembly 110 and the concave lens 120 or the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the concave lens 120 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200;

[0166] When the sum of the first distance and the second distance is greater than the first preset distance value but the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is less than or equal to the second preset distance value, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the convex lens 130 or the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the convex lens 130 and the RGB photoelectric sensor 140;

[0167] When the sum of the first distance and the second distance is less than or equal to the first preset distance value and the sum of the third distance and the fourth distance is less than or equal to the second preset distance value, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the light source assembly 110 and the concave lens 120 or the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the concave lens 120 and the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 and the convex lens 130 or the compact optical pathway 160 is installed between the convex lens 130 and the RGB photoelectric sensor 140.

[0168] In this embodiment, the first preset distance value and the second preset distance value are both 100 mm.

[0169] When it is not necessary to install the compact optical pathway 160 in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, and the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the RGB photoelectric sensor 140, and converted into R value, G value and B value; when it is necessary to install the compact optical pathway 160 in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the compact optical pathway 160 is installed in the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism to form a compact hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the compact hydrogen-sensitive color-changing sensing mechanism, and the color signal of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 is collected through the RGB photoelectric sensor 140, and converted into R value, G value and B value, and the R value, G value and B value are transmitted to the control module through the electrical signal transmission line 150.

[0170] In this embodiment, the control module is specifically used to determine whether hydrogen leakage occurs according to the R value, G value and B value obtained by analyzing the RGB photoelectric sensor.

[0171] In this embodiment, judging whether hydrogen leakage occurs according to the R value, G value and B value obtained by the RGB photoelectric sensor includes:

[0172] Obtaining an initial R value, an initial G value, and an initial B value of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 at an initial moment;

[0173] Collecting the detection R value, detection G value and detection B value of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 after a preset time period;

[0174] Obtain a changed R value according to the initial R value and the detected R value, obtain a changed G value according to the initial G value and the detected G value, and obtain a changed B value according to the initial B value and the detected B value;

[0175] Determine whether the change R value exceeds the first preset threshold, whether the change G value exceeds the second preset threshold, or whether the change B value exceeds the third preset threshold; if so, determine that hydrogen leakage occurs.

[0176] In this embodiment, the first preset threshold, the second preset threshold and the third preset threshold are all positive numbers.

[0177] Right now:

[0178] R t0 -R t0+t >m or G t0 -G t0+t >n

[0179] Among them, R t0 and G t0 are the initial R value and initial G value of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 at time t0 (initial time), R t0+t and Gt0+t It is the detection R value and detection G value of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 after t time (preset time period). In order to ensure the effectiveness of the alarm and avoid false alarms, t can usually be 0.1s, 0.2s, 0.3s, 0.4s, ..., 1.8s, 1.9s, 2.0s. The m and n values ​​are the color change judgment threshold points (m is the first preset threshold, n is the second preset threshold), and both are positive numbers.

[0180] In an embodiment of the present invention, the hydrogen leakage detection system further includes an alarm module, and the alarm module is used to calculate the risk level of hydrogen leakage when hydrogen leakage occurs, and perform an alarm action according to the risk level of hydrogen leakage.

[0181] In this embodiment, the calculation of the risk level of hydrogen leakage includes:

[0182] Calculate the R value discoloration rate of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 according to the changed R value;

[0183] Calculate the G value color change rate of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 according to the changed G value;

[0184] Calculate the B value color change rate of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200 according to the changed B value;

[0185] The risk level of hydrogen leakage is obtained according to the R value color change rate, the G value color change rate or the B value color change rate of the hydrogen-sensitive color-changing tape 200.

[0186] The calculation formula of R value color change rate is:

[0187] R RL =(R t0 -R t0+t ) / t;

[0188] Similarly: The calculation formula for the G value color change rate is:

[0189] G RL =(G t0 -G t0+t ) / t.

[0190] The risk level of hydrogen leakage can be obtained according to one of the R value color change rate, G value color change rate or B value color change rate of the hydrogen sensitive color changing tape 200. Specifically, the R value color change rate, G value color change rate or B value color change rate respectively correspond to three risk level tables, and the risk level corresponding to the color change rate obtained by querying and calculating the risk table.

[0191] Table 1 is a table of risk levels corresponding to the R value discoloration rate, and Table 2 is a table of risk levels corresponding to the G value discoloration rate, as shown in Table 1 and Table 2:

[0192] Table 1: Risk level table corresponding to the R value discoloration rate

[0193] <![CDATA[R RL Value]]> Risk Level ≤10 Low risk 10~30 Medium risk 30~40 High risk ≥40 Emergent Risk

[0194] Table 2: Risk level table corresponding to the G value color change rate

[0195] <![CDATA[G RL Value]]> Risk Level ≤8 Low risk 8~20 Medium risk 20~30 High risk ≥30 Emergent Risk

[0196] In this embodiment, a corresponding alarm action is executed according to the risk level obtained by the query.

[0197] When a hydrogen leak is confirmed, the control module transmits the hydrogen leak alarm information and the hydrogen leak risk level signal to the central control system, and the central control system takes corresponding interlocking measures. When the risk is low or medium, the risk level change should be continuously tracked. If the risk level remains basically unchanged, the original state can be maintained unchanged; if it is a medium risk, the hydrogen scene operator should strengthen the inspection of the leakage alarm point; if it is a high risk, the hydrogen leakage point should be cut off from the hydrogen system as much as possible, and appropriate pressure relief and treatment measures should be taken to avoid further expansion of hydrogen leakage; if it is an emergency risk, emergency parking should be taken immediately, and the corresponding hydrogen supply should be cut off. The residual hydrogen in the hydrogen system should be discharged through the emergency relief outlet as soon as possible.
