  • Emission quantification using a line scan of gas concentration data
    Publication number: 20200355573
    Abstract: Flux estimates for gas plumes from gas leaks are obtained from a 1-D horizontal line scan of gas concentration measurements, combined with an estimate of the vertical extent of the gas plume. In this manner, flux estimates for gas plumes can be obtained without having to gather a 2-D image of gas concentration data. In preferred embodiments, an estimate of the uncertainty of the gas plume flux estimate is provided.
