Abstract
A system for monitoring for a gas leak from a gas containing structure. The system includes a lens that directs an image of a scene of interest through an optical filter to a detector. The filter, associated with the lens, has one or more passbands that pass wavelengths which match one or more emission or reflectively wavelengths of the gas being monitored. A detector receives the image after the image passes through the lens and the filter. The detector generates image data representing the scene including the gas containing structure. A processor is configured to process the image data by executing machine executable code stored on a memory. The machine executable code processes the image data to identify turbulence flows in the image data such that a turbulence flow indicates a gas leak. The code generates and sends an alert in response to the identification of a turbulence flow.
