The invention relates to an electric conduction-type internal wave measurement system, which is characterized in that: the system comprises a micro conductive sensor array for detecting the change of electric conductivity in a flow field, an output end of the micro conductive sensor array is sequentially connected with a range switcher, an amplifier, an electric conductivity/density converter, an analog/digital converter, a computer and an internal wave waveform real-time display window; the range switcher automatically adjusts the gain of the amplifier according to an electric conductivity signal of the micro conductive sensor array; the electric conductivity/density converter converts the electric conductivity signal of liquid to a density signal which is then further converted, by the analog/digital converter, into a digital signal for being input into the computer, and the digital signal is analyzed and processed by internal wave signal real-time processing software in the computer to obtain integral real-time internal wave waveform, in the end, the internal wave waveform is input to an internal wave waveform real-time display window for being displayed. The system has the advantages of long recording time, high resolution, good synchronism, high reliability and the like, and is suitable for the real-time measurement and analysis of internal waves at different density layers in a variety of density stratification water tanks.
