Crack Detection in Pipelines Using Capacitive Sensors
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 30, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Detection of cracks in pipes which are buried under the ground at greater depths is consuming task. Humans can’t be utilized to detect cracks in buried pipelines. So we propose a Robot that navigates through a pipeline and detect cracks in such buried pipelines using capacitive sensors.Capacitive sensors that used here for detecting cracks are efficient,economic, reliable and compact. Another purpose of using this method is, for an unknown crack in pipeline, in which the diameter is small, has to be analysed in a more significant manner. It is harder to find the exact lo and also the devices should be smaller and compact. Hence in order to detect the exact location of cracks in such pipes we need to dig the entire soil and check the crackmanually. This leads to waste of money be overcome by the proposed method of crack detection.
