The invention can accurately obtain the phase holdup of two-phase flow in a non-invasive manner.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fluid measurement, and relates to a measurement method combined with an ultrasonic sensor and an electrical sensor, which is used for the non-disturbance measurement of the flow velocity of a two-phase flow. technical background

[0002] Two-phase flow widely exists in industrial processes such as petroleum and chemical industry, such as oil-water two-phase flow, gas-liquid two-phase flow, etc. The accurate measurement of its process parameters will help the optimization and design of industrial processes, improve production efficiency, reduce cost and energy consumption. Due to the strong dynamic coupling between the two phases of oil and water, the flow process is complex and the transient is high, and it is difficult to measure the flow rate and holdup.

[0003] The traditional two-phase flow testing methods mostly use invasive testing methods, such as turbine flowmeters and differential pressure flow...
