Abstract

The article focuses on the advantages of ultrasonic leak detectors in safe detection and formulas developed for gas leak detection ranges. It states that the ultrasonic detectors can detect the leaks based on the ultrasound from the escaping gas. It says that ultrasonic detectors allow the leaks to be stimulated while technicians can produce leaks using an inert gas as a proxy. It adds that ultrasonic detectors lend themselves for modeling large leaks.
