Abstract

Pipeline is making the most use of transportation of petroleum products on the land. But due to tremendous accident or environmental disaster by oil pipeline leak or pipeline stolen, leak detection systems have been used for preventing it. Leak detection method based on negative pressure wave has been used at the long distance pipeline. But even if it has showed good leak detection quality, due to making a lot of false alarm, it has weak point that disturbs concentration to system. This study suggests algorithm and method of using volume balance to decrease false-alarm of pipeline leak detection system based on negative pressure wave.

육상에서 석유 제품의 수송에 가장 많이 활용되는 방법이 송유관을 이용하는 방법이다. 그러나 누유 혹은 도유로 인한 대형사고 및 환경 재해의 위험이 있기 때문에 일반적으로 누유 감지 시스템 (Leak Detection System)을 활용하여 이에 대처하고 있다. 장거리 송유관에 많이 활용되는 방법은 저압확장파((Negative Pressure Wave)를 활용한 누유 감지 기법인데 저압확장파 기반의 시스템은 감지 성능이 뛰어나지만 높은 오알람 발생률로 인하여 누유 알람의 신뢰성이 저하되는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 송유관 양단의 유량 차이 (Volume Balance) 비교를 추가로 활용하여 저압확장파 기반 누유 감지 시스템의 오알람을 필터링하는 알고리즘과 실험 결과를 제시한다.
