Design and development of interdigital capacitive sensor for void fraction measurement
Two-phase flow is a common occurrence in various industries. Void fraction measurement is a crucial parameter in any two-phase flow because it gives the qualitative and quantitative information about the material in flow channel. This measurement is also important for scheduling maintenance and operation monitoring. In the present research work a novel noninvasive interdigital electrode based capacitive sensor for measurement of void fraction/phase fraction in two phase flow with multiple dimensions and multiple signal conditioning circuits are presented. These sensors are simulated using FEA method and experimentally evaluated on a custom designed experimental setup. The output characteristics of the sensors are analyzed and the capacitance change is in pF range for the whole range of void Fraction i.e. 0 %–100 %.
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.
