· By the twin geometry of the capacitive sensor it is possible to crosscorrelate the two signals and estimate gas flow rate. A simple algebraic approach, which considers noslip condition between phases and disregards influence of gas phase, combines pressure fluctuations of the Venturi meter with the measured phase fraction to estimate liquid flow rate. The proposed meter has been …
Ultrasonic flow meters of the SONOFLOW and SEMIFLOW series are designed for effective flow rate measurement on flexible and rigid plastic tubes.

A capacitive electromagnetic flowmeter working in voltage sensing mode is developed. The methods to keep noise to a minimum are described. The signal converter is designed to measure the signal from the sensor and get the flow rate. The prototype flowmeter is calibrated with water in a flow loop. After the calibration, the system is tested with oilwater twophase flow.

A gas flow sensor particularly useful for the measurement of relatively low flow rates. The sensor includes a flexible vane affixed to a substrate. One end of the vane is conductive and is permitted to move with the flexing of the vane. That end of the vane forms part of one or more capacitors such that as the vane bends with the flow of gas therethrough, the capacitive value changes.
