Local Void Fractions and Bubble Velocity in Vertical Air-Water Two-Phase Flows Measured by Needle-Contact Capacitance Probe

Abstract: Multiphase flow measurements have become increasingly important in a wide range of industrial fields. In the present study, a dual needle-contact capacitance probe was newly designed to measure local void fractions and bubble velocity in a vertical channel, which was verified by digital high-speed camera system. The theoretical analyses and experiments show that the needle-contact capacitance probe can reliably measure void fractions with the readings almost independent of temperature and salinity for the expe… Show more

“…Several techniques have been developed that aim to measure the volumetric gas fraction in a two-phase flow. Among them are capacitance sensors [31], magnetic resonance [32,33], ultrasonic methods [34,35], radiation attenuation techniques [36,37], and wire mesh sensors [38,39]. The void fraction in a two-phase flow can also be measured by applying acoustic emission technology for measuring acoustic emission signals.…”

“…A variety of typical methods, including capacitance sensors [6,7], wire-mesh sensors [8,9], radiation attenuation techniques [10,11], magnetic resonance [12,13] and ultrasonic techniques [14,15] have been applied to measure the gas void fraction of the gas-liquid two-phase flow. The sensing principle of the capacitance sensors makes use of different electrical permittivities of the phases.…”

“…Such sensors have the advantages of a structural simplicity and low cost. Huang et al [6] designed a dual needle-contact capacitance probe to measure the local void fractions and bubble velocities of the air-water two-phase flow. Li et al [7] developed a method for the gas void fraction measurement and flow pattern recognition of the gas-oil two-phase flow based on a capacitance sensor and the least-squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) technique.…”
