Abstract

The paper presents development of a complex method of ultrasonic measurement of two-phase flows. The method enables measurement of the dynamic and structural characteristics of ascending inhomogeneity. A software and hardware complex for realization of the proposed method has been developed and implemented and tested in water. Results of experimental studies show that the software and hardware complex enables detection of rising gas bubbles in a liquid medium, monitoring of their dynamics, and localization of them in a volume of 5–50 cm3.
