On the Use of a Rotatable ECT Sensor to Investigate Dense Phase Flow: A Feasibility Study.
This paper presents the feasibility study of dynamic flow measurements using the concept of a rotatable electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) sensor. The experiment considered horizontal flow in a pneumatic conveying flow loop in the case of dense phase flow. Slugs and settled layers were imaged and a comparison was made between no rotation or rotation of the sensor for two image reconstruction schemas: linear back projection (LBP) and non-linear iterative back projection. Data were evaluated both qualitatively and quantitatively by estimating the solids concentration level for different hue levels.
