Abstract

A wire-mesh multi-channel electrostatic probe is utilized to determine gas velocity distribution in a small cylindrical metal container. The probe system is developed to implement in the measurement of gas flow in the container; probe fabrication and construction of the measurement system are explained in detail. Also a numerical analysis is conducted to compare the computed velocity profile in radial and axial directions with the measured velocity distribution. An implicit method is implemented to solve a set of motion equations. The velocity distribution of gas flow in the metal container is measured to analyze flow distribution for the understanding of flow pattern in a cylindrical tank which is widely utilized in chemical processes. Comparison between the measured velocity and the computed distribution of gas velocity indicates that the distribution of measured signal agrees with the computational outcome and the measurement system is useful for investigation of gas velocity distribution inside metal containers.
