ABSTRACT:
A microprocessor based fluid tank test management system and method, for measuring the tightness of fluid tanks for leakage. The system includes, an automatic temperature sensing apparatus to measure any temperature change in the fluid during a test period, apparatus for continuously circulating the fluid in the tank, apparatus for stabilizing the geometry of the tank, apparatus for automatically maintaining a constant fluid head in communication with the fluid in the tank and for measuring the fluid added to or removed from the fluid head to keep it constant during the test period, apparatus to determine the coefficient of expansion of the fluid in the tank, and apparatus for utilizing the values of the temperature change, the fluid measurement, and coefficient of expansion, to automatically calculate any fluid leak from the tank during the test period.
