Flow Measurement and Instrumentation 9 (1998) 111–119 A new electrode-mesh tomograph for gas–liquid flows H.-M. Prasser *, A. Bottger, J. Zschau ¨ Forschungszentrum Rossendorf e.V., Institute for Safety Research, PO Box 51 01 19, D-01314 Dresden, Germany Received 22 August 1996; received in revised form 15 March 1997; accepted 17 March 1997 Abstract The paper presents an electrode-mesh tomograph for the high-speed visualisation of transient gas fraction distributions in two- phase flows in pipes. It is based on the measurement of the local instantaneous conductivity of the two-phase mixture. The time resolution of the device is 1024 frames per second. The sensor consists of two electrode grids with 16 electrodes each. This results in 16 × 16 sensitive points, which are equally distributed over the cross-section. The sensor is available in two designs: (1) wire- mesh sensor for lab applications and (2) sensor with enforced electrode rods for high mechanical loads. The device was recently tested in a vertical and a horizontal air–water flow in a pipe of 51.2 mm diameter.  1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
