In this paper, the optimization of the existing 12 × 6 dimensional photodiode array sensor was implemented according to the flow characteristics of gas-liquid two-phase flow in small channel. Firstly, the light intensity distribution characteristics after the laser passing through the cross section of the small channel and the photodiode signals were analyzed, and then the number and location of photodiodes were redesigned. Secondly, void fraction measurement experiments of gas-liquid two-phase flow in small channel were carried out with the optimized sensor. The absolute errors of void fraction measurement with the optimized sensor were less than 7%, which was similar to the results obtained by the original photodiode array sensor. Experimental results show that the optimization of the photodiode array sensor was effective.
