Abstract: A leak detecting system includes a leak detector that detects leakage of liquid stored in a tank based on fluctuation in a level of the liquid. The leak detector includes a liquid inlet/outlet portion through which the liquid in the tank flows in and out, a flow-rate measuring unit configured to measure an amount of flow of the liquid inside the leak detector, and a liquid retaining portion configured to retain liquid flowing therein through the liquid inlet/outlet portion. A lower end of the leak detector is detachably attached to a bottom plate of the tank, and an upper end of the leak detector is supported in a gauging port in a top plate in such a manner that the leak detector is movable in a vertical direction.

Abstract: Measurements are obtained by a computing unit based on an output Vh from an indirectly-heated constant-temperature controlling flow rate measuring section (16) and an output Vout from a two-constant-point temperature difference detecting flow rate measuring sections (18a, 18b). In the flow rate measuring section (16), a heating element (163) is feedback-controlled based on a detected temperature by a heat sensing element (162) to obtain an output Vh based on the feedback-controlled condition. An output Vout is obtained from flow rate measuring sections (18a, 18b) based on the detected temperature difference between a heat sensing element (182) disposed on the liquid-flow-direction upstream side of the flow rate measuring section (16) and a temperature sensing element disposed on the downstream side.

Abstract: A device placed in a tank and used for detecting a leakage of liquid in the tank. Vertical measurement tube passages (10, 14) into which the liquid in the tank is introduced have a measurement tube (10) and a measurement thin tube (14). The measurement thin tube (14) communicates with the measurement tube and is located lower than the measurement tube. The measurement thin tube has a cross-sectional area that is equal to or smaller than {fraction (1/50)} of that of the measurement tube. A thermal flow sensor (16) used for measuring a liquid flow rate is attached to the measurement thin tube (14). There is provided leakage detecting means (22) for detecting a leakage of liquid in the tank according to the flow rate value measured by the sensor. The leakage detecting means generates a leakage detection signal when a flow rate value measured by the sensor is within a range greater than 0 and smaller than the flow rate value obtained when liquid is added to the tank or when the liquid in the tank is taken out.
