A non-invasive air-coupled v-type ultrasonic leak detection system

New method for non-attached ultrasound PVC pipe monitoring is proposed for vibration and pressure leak detection systems. The advantages of this method is that it can provide a quick and accurate means of detecting leakage in between each pair of sensors while transmitting results wirelessly. The se...
