Gas Leak detection using airborne US Sensors

Gas leakage is a critical problem in the industrial sector, residential structures, and gas-powered vehicles; installing gas leakage detection systems is one of the preventative strategies for reducing hazards caused by gas leakage. Conventional gas sensors, such as electrochemical, infrared point, and MOS sensors, have traditionally been used to detect leaks. The challenge with these sensors is their versatility in settings involving many gases, as well as their exorbitant cost and scalability. As a result, several gas detection approaches were explored. Our approach utilizes 40 KHz ultrasound signal for gas detection. Here, the reflected signal has been analyzed to detect gas leaks and identify gas in real-time, providing a quick, reliable solution for gas leak detection in industrial environments. The electronics and sensors used are both low-cost and easily scalable. The system incorporates commonly accessible materials and off-the-shelf components, making it suitable for use in a variety of contexts. They are also more effective at detecting numerous gas leaks and has a longer lifetime. Butane was used to test our system. The breaches were identified in 0.01 seconds after permitting gas to flow from a broken pipe, whereas identifying the gas took 0.8 seconds
