Sensors, consisting of Morgantown Energy Technology Center (METC) axial synchro driving guard electrodes and two sets of detecting electrodes, make it possible to obtain simultaneously two groups of signals of the void fraction in oil-gas two-phase flow. The computational and experimental results showed that available sensors, charactered by high resolution and fast real-time response can be used for real-time liquid-gas two-phase flow pattern determination.展开更多

The separation efficiency of the cyclone separator is very important to the whole boiler. Electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) is a unique measuring technique with great potential in multiphase flow measurement. Experimental studies are carried out on the measurement of volumetric concentration and angular velocity using ECT. The former is determined through image reconstruction method, and the latter is measured by cross-correlating the capacitance fluctuations caused by the conveyed solids. The distribution of void fraction in radial direction, the fluctuating characteristics, probability density function and the spectrum characteristics are analyzed. The feasibility and reliability of the method are verified by experimental results.展开更多
