Abstract

PURPOSE:To detect an extremely small flow rate by arranging a by-pass line which has a fine flow meter provided to the 1st valve. CONSTITUTION:The by-pass flow passage where the 3rd valve 10, the fine flow meter 7, and the 4th valve 11 are cascaded in parallel to the 1st valve 8 is arranged; and the 1st valve 8 and the 2nd valve 9 are closed and then the 3rd valve 10 and the 4th valve 11 are opened, and a pump 5 is put in operation to apply pressure. If there is a leak in a buried pipe 61, the fine flow meter 5 operates and indicates that there is a leak flow rate. Therefore, an alarm can be sent by detecting the operation of the fine flow meter 5. Consequently, the extremely small leak can be detected with the simple constitution wherein the by-pass line is only arranged, and the operation is extremely easy and the cost is low, so the excellent results as to dangerous material handling is obtained.

Detecting leaks during pipeline transportation of fuel oil or hazardous liquids is extremely important from the viewpoint of safety and pollution, but the means to solve such problems are mainly limited to large-scale For example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 47-28665 has proposed a method applied to a fluid transfer system. In the system described in this publication, flow meters are arranged on the sending side and the receiving side, which are separated from each other, and a flow rate signal is output from each flow meter in proportion to the flow rate.

It cannot be applied to underground boiler fuel oil pipes of several tens of meters, such as in hotels etc. Recently, the Fire and Disaster Management Agency has distributed guidance guidelines regarding periodic inspections as part of facility maintenance and management to each department and prefectural fire department. According to this guideline, ``inspection of underground piping for leakage'' is also mentioned, and this method should be ``carried out using a line pack test, depressurization method, or a method that can confirm the presence or absence of leakage of an equivalent or greater degree.'' . The line pack test among these will be explained with reference to FIG.

This tank 2 is provided with a vent hole 3 that communicates with the atmosphere via a valve 31, and a suction pipe 4 that communicates with a pump 5 that pressurizes the tank to a predetermined water head via a valve 51. The fuel oil pressurized by the pump 5 is pumped through a pipe 6 to a load such as a boiler (not shown). Here, for example, it is assumed that a part of the pipe 6 is buried in the ground between points A and B 61. The line pack test of the buried pipe 61 is performed by closing the first valve 8 and the second valve 9, which are installed above ground and downstream of the buried pipe 61, respectively.
The presence or absence of leakage is checked based on the temporal change in pressure during this period.

In contrast, the depressurization method removes the fluid in the buried portion and determines whether there is a leak based on the presence or absence of pressure rise in this portion.

Problems with the Prior Art The leakage inspection method using the line pack test or depressurization method described above requires pressurization or depressurization means and the installation of a pressure gauge, which is expensive for small-scale facilities such as inns. Therefore, even if guidelines for periodic inspections were issued, it was difficult to implement them over a wide range of areas.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention realizes "a method that can confirm the presence or absence of leakage to a degree equivalent to or higher than that of the line pack test or depressurization method", and the first valve 8 is equipped with a microflow meter. A bypass line is provided, and the operation of the microflow meter is detected with the second valve 9 closed.

Figure 1 is a configuration diagram for explaining one embodiment of the present invention, and elements having the same functions as those in Figure 3 are given the same reference numbers as in Figure 3. I will omit that explanation. Accordingly, in the present invention, a bypass flow path is arranged in parallel with the first valve 8 in which the third valve 10, the micro flowmeter 7, and the fourth valve are successively connected in cascade. Close the second valve, then
The 3rd and 4th valves are opened to operate the pump 5 and pressurize it. If there is a leak in the buried pipe 61, the micro flowmeter 5 is activated and indicates that there is a leakage flow rate. Therefore, it is also possible to detect the operation of the micro flow meter 5 and transmit the ¥g information.
