That is, the air in the machine room 20 is forcibly exhausted from the exhaust port 22 by the unillustrated ventilator, and the air is sent from the air supply port 21 into the machine room 20.
- the first discharge line 4 and the second discharge line 5 have a plurality of possible leakage points 30 scattered in the machine room 20.
- the assumed leakage location is a location where the possibility of leakage of liquefied gas or evaporated gas flowing through the piping is relatively high.

- the gas leak detection system 10 includes a first gas detector 41 and a plurality of (three in this example) second gas detectors in order to detect leakage of liquefied gas or evaporative gas from the expected leak locations 30a to 30j. 42a to 42c.
- the first gas detector 41 is installed at the exhaust port 22.
- the gas evaporated from the leaked liquefied gas or the leaked evaporated gas (hereinafter also simply referred to as “leaked gas”) always passes through the exhaust port 22.
- the detection sensitivity of the first gas detector 41 is set to high sensitivity (that is, the detection concentration is low) so that the gas is detected even when leaking from any leakage assumed location 30 in the machine room 20. By setting it, the leaked gas can be reliably detected.
- the detection concentration of the first gas detector 41 is determined, for example, by performing a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis. Specifically, first, the minimum leakage speed of the fluid to be leaked is estimated from the assumed leakage hole diameter and the operating pressure or design pressure at each of the estimated leakage locations 30a to 30j. Then, the minimum leakage amount Q1 per unit time is calculated from the estimated minimum leakage speed. Next, CFD analysis was performed using the calculated minimum leakage amount Q1 and ventilation amount Q2 (for example, the amount of air discharged from the exhaust port 22 per unit time) as a boundary condition, and the first gas detector 41 was installed. Predict the concentration of leaked gas at the location. In this way, a safety factor is set to the predicted gas concentration, and the detected concentration is determined so that the first gas detector 41 can detect the gas leakage even when leaking from any leaking location 30 in the machine room 20. .
- CFD computational fluid dynamics
- the second gas detectors 42a to 42c are respectively installed in the vicinity of the plurality of assumed leakage points 30. Specifically, the second gas detector 42a is installed in the vicinity of the leak potential portions 30a to 30d that are close to each other. The second gas detector 42b is installed in the vicinity of the possible leakage locations 30e to 30g that are close to each other. The second gas detector 42c is installed in the vicinity of the expected leakage locations 30h to 30j that are close to each other.
- the second gas detector 42a is installed at a position where the leakage can be detected regardless of whether the evaporative gas leaks from any of the leak potential locations 30a to 30d.
- the second gas detector 42b is installed at a position where the leakage can be detected even when the liquefied gas or the evaporative gas leaks from any of the leakage assumed locations 30e to 30g.
- the second gas detector 42c is installed at a position where the leakage can be detected even if the evaporative gas leaks from any of the leakage assumed locations 30h to 30j.
- the second gas detectors 42a to 42c those having gas detection sensitivity lower than that of the first gas detector 41 are used. Then, when the liquefied gas or the evaporative gas leaks from a certain leak assumption location 30, one of the second gas detectors 42a to 42c detects the gas leak, and other than that, the gas leak is not detected. Two gas detectors 42a to 42c are arranged.
- the second gas detector 42a does not detect the leakage of the liquefied gas or the evaporative gas from any of the assumed leak locations 30d to 30j, and the second gas detector 42b does not detect the leak expected locations 30a to 30d,
- the leak of liquefied gas or evaporative gas from any of 30h to 30j is not detected, and the second gas detector 42c does not detect the leak of liquefied gas or evaporative gas from any of the assumed leak locations 30a to 30g.
- this is not the case when the leakage amount of the liquefied gas or the evaporative gas from the assumed leakage location 30 exceeds the expected amount.
- each of the second gas detectors 42a to 42c detects only gas leakage from the assumed leakage location 30 in the leakage estimated locations 30a to 30j, and leaks gas from the assumed leakage location 30 that is not located nearby. In order to prevent detection, not only the installation position but also the detection density is appropriately determined. In the present embodiment, the detected concentrations of the second gas detectors 42a to 42c are the same. However, the detected concentrations of the second gas detectors 42a to 42c may be different from each other. For example, the detection concentrations of the second gas detectors 42a to 42c are lower than the lower explosion limit (LEL), for example, 25% LEL, 30% LEL, 50% LEL, and the like.
- LEL lower explosion limit
- each installation of the second gas detectors 42a to 42c This is performed depending on the safety standards of the place and the method for determining the detected concentration of the first gas detector 41.
- the leaked gas is detected by the first gas detector 41, and among the three second gas detectors 42a to 42c, The gas is detected by the second gas detector 42a in the vicinity of the assumed leakage point 30a.
- the first gas detector 41 and the second gas detector 42a detect the gas, for example, a crew member in the bridge of the liquefied gas carrier 1 or the engine control room has a gas leak in the machine room 20 due to a visual audible alarm. I was informed. Since the second gas detector 42a has detected the gas, the sailor can specify that there is a leaking point in the vicinity of the second gas detector 42a including the leaking expected points 30a to 30d, and promptly deal with the leaking point. I do.
- the leaked gas in the unlikely event that liquefied gas or evaporative gas leaks from places other than the expected leak locations 30a to 30j, the leaked gas can be detected by the highly sensitive first gas detector 41 installed at the exhaust port 22. . In such a case, even if none of the second gas detectors 42a to 42c having low sensitivity detects the leaked gas, the leaked gas in the machine room 20 can be reliably detected.
- the leak detection system 10 when the liquefied gas or the evaporated gas leaks in the machine room 20, the leak is caused by the first gas detector 41 installed in the exhaust port 22. Gas can be detected reliably.
- the second gas detectors 42a to 42c have lower gas detection sensitivity than the first gas detector 41, when liquefied gas or evaporative gas leaks from a certain leak point 30 in the machine room 20, the gas is detected. It can be arranged so that the second gas detector installed in the vicinity of the leaked point detects the leaked gas and the other second gas detectors do not detect the leaked gas. For this reason, it is possible to quickly identify from which of the plurality of possible leakage locations 30a to 30j gas leakage has occurred.
- FIG. 3 is a plan view schematically showing the machine room 20 according to the modification.
- the machine room 20 shown in FIG. 3 is different from the above embodiment in the number and installation method of the second gas detectors installed in order to detect the leakage assumed location 30. That is, in the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, one second gas detector is installed in the vicinity of a plurality of assumed leakage points. On the other hand, one second gas detector is installed in the vicinity thereof. Specifically, each of the second gas detectors 43a to 43j is installed correspondingly in the vicinity of each of the possible leak locations 30a to 30j.
- the installation position of the second gas detector is such that the concentration of the leaked gas that reaches the second gas detector is sufficiently high when gas leaks from an assumed leak location other than the assumed leak location that is the detection target. It is preferable to be determined to be low.
- the detected concentration of the second gas detector may be lower than the concentration of the leaked gas that reaches the second gas detector when the gas leaks from the assumed leak location other than the assumed leak location that is the detection target. preferable. However, this does not apply when the amount of leakage of liquefied gas or evaporative gas from the assumed leakage point exceeds the expected amount.
