A decrease in temperature downstream of a heater would indicate intrusion of gas.
A relatively simple thermal technique has been proposed to enable detection of bubbles of gas or bulk gas in a tube that is meant to contain a flowing liquid only. In a system in which gas cannot be tolerated, the technique could be used to trigger a shutoff valve downstream of a location where gas is detected.Viewing entire briefs requires login/registration.
