Annotation of standard text API PUBL 322 :

This report describes a set of controlled experiments conducted on a 40-ft. diameter refinery tank to determine the nature of acoustic leak signals and ambient noise under a range of test conditions. The features of a leak detection test needed for high performance are explored. The report concludes that accurate and reliable leak detection of aboveground storage tanks can be achieved through the use of acoustic methods. See also companion document Publ 323. See more
