Analysis of Conductance Probes for Two-Phase Flow and Holdup Applications

[EN] In this paper we perform an analysis of the conductance probes used in two-phase flow applications especially for two-phase flow tomography of annular flow, to measure the waves produced in the interface with different boundary conditions without perturbing the flow, and in addition we examine...

The method used to obtain the detector conductance between the electrodes is to solve analytically the generalized Laplace equation in 3D with the boundary conditions of the problem, and then to obtain the average potential difference between the detector electrodes. Then, dividing the current intensity circulating between the emitter and the receiver electrodes by the average potential difference yields the probe conductance, which depends on the geometric and physical characteristics of the measured system and the probe.
