ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and a method are disclosed for localizing excessive temperature occurring at any point along a path. In particular, a substantially constant pressure gas is applied via an orifice to a closed tubing which extends along the path. The tubing is selected to rupture at the predetermined excessive temperature. The approximate location of the rupture is determined by measuring the differential pressure across the orifice after a rupture occurs.
