Description

Infrared imaging and concentration detection device and method for methane gas leakage
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of gas detection, in particular to an infrared imaging and concentration detection device and method for methane gas leakage.
Background
In industries such as petrochemical industry and the like, a large number of methane gas storage or conveying equipment with complex structure exist, and effective monitoring on the leakage condition of the equipment is an important precondition for ensuring safety production. At present, contact type leakage detection equipment is widely adopted, and a sensor of the equipment can find the leakage condition only by contacting with a detection target gas. However, some of the leaks may be leaking, but most of the potential leaks have not yet leaked, so that an operator must personally check and detect each potential leak, which is inefficient and also poses a health safety hazard to inspection personnel. The infrared thermal imager developed for methane gas leakage detection makes up for the defects. The infrared absorption spectrum characteristic of methane gas is utilized, non-contact passive imaging detection is carried out on the wave band where the infrared absorption peak is located, and the methane gas can be found easily. The operating personnel can inspect many potential leakage sources simultaneously through the mode of large tracts of land formation of image observation outside safe distance, and the consuming time is short and need not to stop equipment operation, has also guaranteed operating personnel's personal safety when getting high-efficient accurate testing result. In the prior art, when methane gas leakage is detected, the leaked methane gas absorbs infrared radiation in the surrounding environment, an infrared imaging system collects changes of the infrared radiation of the methane gas, the infrared radiation is focused by an optical lens, infrared radiation in a required waveband is filtered out from incident light rays of complex spectrums of target and background infrared radiation by an infrared band-pass filter, finally the radiation is focused on a focal plane of an infrared detector, and then the infrared radiation is subjected to image enhancement processing by an infrared image acquisition processing module and is output to a liquid crystal display screen or a viewfinder. Thus, the invisible methane gas and the leakage position are displayed on a liquid crystal display or a viewfinder of the methane gas infrared imager clearly in real time.
The thermal infrared imager for detecting methane gas leakage has outstanding advantages, but the detection principle is based on the infrared absorption spectrum characteristic of target gas for imaging observation, so that the thermal infrared imager is mainly suitable for quickly detecting whether methane gas leakage occurs in a large area, and the high-precision quantitative detection of the concentration of leaked gas is difficult to realize. Therefore, accurate quantitative assessment of the severity of gas leakage is not easy to make using a thermal infrared imager.
At present, a laser methane detector can realize quantitative detection of non-contact methane gas concentration, and adopts an optical detection mode, an infrared spectroscopy measurement principle and a laser beam with unique absorption wavelength to methane molecules to realize leakage detection. The concentration of the methane gas at the position can be quickly measured only by aligning the laser methane detector at the position where the methane gas exists. For example, the prior patent CN108037129A discloses a method for detecting the methane concentration in a coal mine, which converts the gas concentration to be detected into a current signal by a laser gas detection component, transmits the current signal to a processor, compares the current signal with a set threshold value, and displays the gas concentration data. However, searching for leakage points is still inefficient when the device is used alone, and the actual leakage point can only be found by detecting all possible leakage points one by one.

Furthermore, the thermal infrared imager is manufactured by adopting an infrared spectrum absorption principle, and molecules of polyatomic gas have more mechanical degrees of freedom, so that rotation and vibration transition motion of atoms are easy to occur. According to the frequency of transition, molecules of some gases can easily absorb photon energy with a specific infrared band, such as 3.2-3.4 um wavelength, so that the molecules generate atomic motion, and infrared radiation energy passing through the gases is absorbed and weakened. When infrared light of a specific wave band passes through a certain gas, if the frequency of the infrared light is consistent with the motion frequency of gas molecules, the gas absorbs the radiant energy of the infrared light to generate selective energy level transition, wherein the frequency of the infrared light with the strongest energy level transition is the characteristic frequency of the gas molecules.
