METHOD OF EVALUATING TANK, AND EVALUATION DEVICE FOR TANK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18316336 titled 'METHOD OF EVALUATING TANK, AND EVALUATION DEVICE FOR TANK

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes a method for detecting the rupture of a high-pressure tank with high accuracy. The method relies on measuring acoustic emission or sound to determine the pressure just before the rupture occurs.

• The method detects the rupture of a high-pressure tank before it actually happens.
• The detection is achieved by measuring acoustic emission or sound.
• The pressure at which the measured indicator reaches a threshold value is considered as the pressure just before the rupture.
• The method provides a high level of accuracy in detecting tank ruptures.
• This innovation can help prevent accidents and ensure the safety of high-pressure tanks.

Original Abstract Submitted

A high-pressure tank is detected to rupture before the rupture of the tank with high accuracy. The pressure when the indicator obtained based on measured acoustic emission or sound is at least a threshold value is defined as a pressure just before a rupture.
