Abstract
According to the non-stationary characteristics of differential pressure fluctuation signals, a flow regime identification method based on wavelet packet energy feature and probabilistic neural network (PNN) is put forward in this paper. Firstly, original differential pressure fluctuation signals are decomposed into a finite number of different frequency band signals, and then the concept of wavelet packet energy entropy is proposed. The analysis results from wavelet packet energy entropy of different differential pressure fluctuation signals show that the energy of differential pressure fluctuation signals will change in different frequency bands when bearing flow regimes. Therefore, to identify flow regimes, energy feature extracted from a number of frequency band signals that contained the most dominant flow regime information could served as input probabilistic neural network. The analysis results form air-water two-phase flow in horizontal pipe four flow regimes show that the identify approach of PNN based on wavelet packet transform extracting the energy of different frequency bands as features can identify flow regimes accurately and effectively.
