Non-Intrusive Pressure/Multipurpose Sensor and Method (MSC-22738)

Abstract:
This technology is a device for non-intrusively measuring the properties of a flowing fluid. The device measures pressure, mass flow rate, density, and other variables. The device does not penetrate the vessel wall of the fluid being measured and, as a result, does not affect the fluid’s flow dynamics or react chemically with the fluid. This technology could be used in a variety of fluid measurement applications. Compared to existing pressure-measuring devices, which are mainly intrusive in nature, this device avoids any contact with the fluid. The device also eliminates uncertainties associated with the location and use of pressure taps (required for intrusive measurement devices). This technology would be especially well suited for the measurement of highly corrosive fluids.
