A method and a device for simulation and measurement of fluid flow parameters (volume, velocity, flow rate) are suggested. Measurement of this set of parameters is necessary for testing, optical alignment, and adjustment of the optical system of fiber-optic flow sensors used in astronauts’ life support systems.
