Abstract
This paper first considered the development of a generalized dual-frequency Walsh transform algorithm specifically for processing dual-frequency EMF signals, taking into account the measurement accuracy requirements in high-precision situations and the limited filtering performance of traditional methods. First, we build a mathematical model of the dual-frequency slurry EMF signal, which is essentially a superposition of interferences and an ideal EMF signal. Second, the match-filtering applicability of the generalized dual-frequency Walsh transform algorithm is verified by exploring the sequency-spectrum distributed features of the mathematical model. Finally, a series of theoretical measurement experiments was carried out, employing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) as the qualitative metric to assess the measurement performance of the proposed method. This research not only breaks the limitations of traditional excitation techniques on excitation frequency but also provides new research ideas for signal processing similar to periodic rectangular waves.
期刊介绍:
Flow Measurement and Instrumentation is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results on all aspects of flow measurement, in both closed conduits and open channels. The design of flow measurement systems involves a wide variety of multidisciplinary activities including modelling the flow sensor, the fluid flow and the sensor/fluid interactions through the use of computation techniques; the development of advanced transducer systems and their associated signal processing and the laboratory and field assessment of the overall system under ideal and disturbed conditions.
FMI is the essential forum for critical information exchange, and contributions are particularly encouraged in the following areas of interest:
Modelling: the application of mathematical and computational modelling to the interaction of fluid dynamics with flowmeters, including flowmeter behaviour, improved flowmeter design and installation problems. Application of CAD/CAE techniques to flowmeter modelling are eligible.
Design and development: the detailed design of the flowmeter head and/or signal processing aspects of novel flowmeters. Emphasis is given to papers identifying new sensor configurations, multisensor flow measurement systems, non-intrusive flow metering techniques and the application of microelectronic techniques in smart or intelligent systems.
Calibration techniques: including descriptions of new or existing calibration facilities and techniques, calibration data from different flowmeter types, and calibration intercomparison data from different laboratories.
Installation effect data: dealing with the effects of non-ideal flow conditions on flowmeters. Papers combining a theoretical understanding of flowmeter behaviour with experimental work are particularly welcome.
