ABSTRACT:
A method for locating leak from a tank containing a fluid using acoustic signals by adaptively correlating the phase of the acoustic signals to determine a first set of possible leak locations and subsequently correlating acoustic signals from a second set of locations on the tank to determine a second set of possible leak locations and converging the first and second set of possible leak locations to determine the location of the leak.
