Abstract

The subject of the article concerns the measurement of the gas phase velocity in the liquid metal by the means of ultrasonic pulse-echo method. Velocity measurements in the case of ultrasonic sensors in the bottom of the container and on its side wall are discussed. In the case of the bubbles swarm movement to the velocity measurement, the method of cross-correlation of the signals was presented. The article also described the main sources of errors in the pulse-echo method in velocity measurements.
