Applying industrial tomography to control and optimization flow systems

Abstract

Abstract The flow control and optimization system based on industrial tomography is presented in this publication. Multiphase flow measurement technologies are still being built and improved. There is a clear tendency in the industry to implement more optimally related functions with an emphasis on active inspection and monitoring. Control methods include issues related to the processing of data obtained from various sensors located in nodes. Monitoring takes place within the scope of acquired and processed data and parameter automation. The main purpose of this work is to design a system for data acquisition and analysis by image reconstruction for various tomographic methods (resistive, capacitive, ultrasonic). The practical application of ultrasonic flow measurement to study gas emissions in the heat and power station chimney is presented
