Capacitance sheds light on complex flows
Capacitance sheds light on complex flows
Swarup, B.
Engineers could soon have a much better idea of what is going on inside pipelines and industrial reactors thanks to a new flow sensor developed by scientists in Germany. The device is able to distinguish between different substances in a flowing mixture and it could help solve tricky flow problems such as how to move unruly mixtures of oil, gas and water from deep undersea wells to the surface.
Keywords: capacitance wire mesh sensor; multiphase flow measurement
