Liquid Leak Detection Using Laser Triangulation
نویسنده
چکیده
For liquid leak detection in machines and industry systems the non-contact laser triangulation can be applied successfully. The refraction of laser ray emitted by sensor head while entering the liquid is used. Experimental tests were carried out for machine oil. Obtained results confirm the possibility to detect oil layers with high accuracy in micrometers. In the paper the idea of a measurement system with opposite laser sensors for oil leak detection on piston rods and shafts was presented.

INVERSE FREQUENCY RESPONSE ANALYSIS FOR PIPELINES LEAK DETECTION USING THE PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION
Inverse Transient Analysis (ITA) is a powerful approach for leak detection of pipelines. When the pipe transient flow is analyzed in frequency domain the ITA is called Inverse Frequency Response Analysis (IFRA). To implement an IFRA for leak detection, a transient state is initiated in the pipe by fast closure of the downstream end valve. Then, the pressure time history at the valve location is...

متن کامل3-D measurement of objects in a cylindrical glass water tank with a laser range finder
In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional (3-D) measurement method of objects in liquid with a laser range finder. When applying vision sensors to measuring objects in liquid, we meet the problem of an image distortion. It is caused by the refraction of the light on the boundary between the air and the liquid, and the distorted image brings errors in a triangulation for the range measuremen...
متن کاملFeasibility of intraoperative corneal topography monitoring during photorefractive keratectomy.
PURPOSE We propose a feasibility study of new corneal topography technology with the aim of monitoring intraoperative corneal topography during excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy. The PAR system measures corneal topography with single grid projection and triangulation but requires fluorescent fluid to be deposited on the corneal surface for shape extraction. We propose and demonstrate a ...
