More Information
Summary:The invention relates to a device (10) for detecting and locating a fluid leak in a hydraulic structure, characterized in that it comprises a geotextile (12) provided with at least one optical fiber (14, 141, 142) in contact with said geotextile (12) and able to transmit a modified signal when the temperature varies. Application to leak detection and location in hydraulic structures.
