combined velocity and concentration figures
- non-contact measurement of velocity and concentration distributions across a flow section by means of a laser beam
- high-resolution recording of laminar and turbulent mixing processes and chemical reactions
- designed for liquids
- applicable to gas phase measurement with high laser power
- time and space synchronized flow and concentration measurements - analysing the same fluid element through a single laser excitation
- analysis in high temporal resolution of both mixing and concentration fluctuations
- quality control in vessels as well as in flow lines
- non-invasive technology – fluid flow is not affected by the probe, and the flow channel remains sealed against leakage
- large numbers of measurement positions can be reached automatically through a traversing system moving the probe with fixed focal length to the positions of interest
- device can be adapted for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, as only optical access to flow is required - ATEX compliant
- precise measurement and control of critical processes e.g. mixing, streaking (refraction anomalies), chemical reactions, segregation and phase separation
Innovation level:
- prototype for industrial measurements, which for the first time allows simultaneous determination of velocity and concentration in liquids (and also in gases)
- smart combination of two proven high resolution measuring methods (Laser Doppler velocimetry and Raman spectroscopy)
- compared to previous model, only one measuring head with powerful signal filter
- first public presentation – world novelty
Target groups:
- manufacturers of laser-optical measuring technology
- food, pharmaceutical, chemical, petroleum industry
- design and manufacturing in chemical engineering
- research institutions in business and science
