Description
Summary:There are many numbers of possible approaches to detect leaks. Some leaks are simply noticeable when the liquids or water appears on the surface. However many leaks do not find their way to the surface and the existence has to be check by analysis of fluid flow in the pipeline. The first step is to determine the approximate position of leak. This can be done by isolate the sections of the mains in turn and noting which section causes a drop in the flow. Next approach is by using sensor to locate leaks. This approach are involves strain gauge pressure transducers and piezoelectric sensor, the occurrence of leaks and know its exact location in the pipeline by using specific method which are Acoustic leak detection method and transient method. The objective is to utilize the signal processing technique in order to analyse leaking in the pipeline. With this, an EEMD method will be applied as the analysis method to collect and analyse the data.
