Abstract
To reduce erroneous determinations of detecting a leak, a measurement time determination device is provided with: a degree-of-ease calculation unit configured to calculate degree-of-ease of detecting a leak in piping, based on vibration propagating through the piping or a fluid flowing through the piping when the piping is vibrated; and a determination unit configured to determine a measurement time necessary for detecting the leak, based on the degree-of-ease.
