Void Fraction Measurement of Boiling Flow by High-Frame-Rate Neutron Radiography

ECT and LS-SVM Based Void Fraction Measurement of Oil-Gas Two-Phase Flow

A method based on Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) and an improved Least Squares Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM) is proposed for void fraction measurement of oil-gas two-phase flow. In the modeling stage, to solve the two problems in LS-SVM, pruning skills are employed to make LS-SVM sparse and robust; then the Real-Coded Genetic Algorithm is introduced to solve the difficult problem...

Measurement of the fractal order of wall void fraction during nucleate boiling

The fractal nature of hydrodynamic features during nucleate boiling is illustrated in this study. Earlier reports in the literature explored the fractal nature of the thermal features in pool boiling. In these studies typically the time-delay technique was used to obtain chaos quantifiers in boiling from wall temperature fluctuation measurements. In this study experiments were performed at diff...

Void fraction measurement in two-phase flow processes via symbolic dynamic filtering of ultrasonic signals

This communication introduces a non-intrusive method for void fraction measurement and identification of two-phase flow regimes, based on ultrasonic sensing. The underlying algorithm is built upon the recently reported theory of a statistical pattern recognition method called symbolic dynamic filtering (SDF). The results of experimental validation, generated on a laboratory test apparatus, show...
