Electrical Capacitance Tomography with a Square Sensor

چکیده
Abstract – In the past, electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) with circular sensors has been extensively investigated. For some industrial applications such as circulating fluidised beds, square sensors are required. Research into this specific area has been carried out at UMIST for the first time. To generate sensitivity maps, the Laplace equation is solved using a finite difference method (FDM). Both the linear back-projection (LBP) and an LBP-based iterative algorithm have been implemented for image reconstruction. Experimental results are very promising.

متن کاملFusion Research of Electrical Tomography with Other Sensors for Two-phase Flow Measurement
The two-phase flow widely exists in the nature and industrial processes. The measurement of two-phase flows, including gas/solids, gas/liquid and liquid/liquid flows, is still challenging. Fusions of electrical tomography with conventional sensors provide possibilities to improve two-phase flow accurate measurement.
