EQUIPMENT USING HYDROGEN GAS, AND METHOD OF DETECTING LEAKAGE OF HYDROGEN GAS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide equipment using hydrogen gas and a method of detecting the leakage of hydrogen gas capable of surely and immediately detecting the leaked hydrogen gas even if the hydrogen gas is burned. SOLUTION: In this equipment 10 using hydrogen gas, a temperature measuring means 13 having a plurality of temperature measurers is installed near hydrogen gas-incorporating equipment (hydrogen gas feed pipe 11) incorporating hydrogen gas. The temperature measurers are desirably installed at generally equal intervals of 0.5 to 2 m. In this method of detecting the leakage of hydrogen gas, a temperature near the hydrogen gas-incorporating equipment (hydrogen gas feed pipe 11) is measured by the temperature measuring means 13 to detect the leakage of hydrogen gas.
