<p>A fluid leak detection system (210) is provided, and includes a fluid conduit (220), a fluid-cooled device (230) having an inlet and an outlet, an inlet flow meter (224), an outlet flow meter (234), and a controller (250). The inlet flow meter and inlet flow meters (224,234) are fluidly connected to the fluid conduit. The inlet flow meter (224) monitors the inlet of the fluid-cooled device for an inlet temperature and an inlet flow rate. The inlet and outlet flow meters (224,234) each have flow meter drift versus process fluid temperature curves as well as drift versus ambient temperature curves, wherein the curves for the inlet flow meter (224) differ from the outlet flow meter (234). The outlet flow meter (234) monitors the outlet of the fluid-cooled device for an outlet temperature and an outlet flow rate. The controller (250) is in communication with the inlet flow meter (224) and the outlet flow meter (234).</p> |
