Abstract

A leak detection and mitigation system (101) includes a gas flow path (110) extending from a gas outlet (112) of a fuel degassing device (102) and an orifice (114) in the gas flow path (110). A sensor (130) is positioned in the gas flow path (110) upstream from the orifice (114). The sensor (130) is configured to detect a fuel leak into the gas flow path (110). A method for leak detection and mitigation in a fuel degassing system (101) includes removing gasses from a fuel stream with a fuel degassing device (102). The method includes directing gasses removed from the fuel stream through a gas flow path (110) extending from a gas outlet (112) of the fuel degassing device (102). An orifice (114) is positioned in the gas flow path (110). The method includes detecting a leak from the fuel stream into the gas flow path (110) by measuring a characteristic in the gas flow path upstream from the orifice (114) with a sensor (130).
