Abstract

The bubbles in the liquid will scatter and absorb the ultrasound, therefore the existence of bubbles will seriously affect the ultrasound propagation in the liquid medium inside the pipeline. This paper analyzes the influence of bubbles in the liquid on the performance of the ultrasonic flow meter, and the gas-liquid two-phase flow rate measurement experiments are implemented. Experimental results show that with the increase of the bubble volume fraction in the liquid, the measurement error of the ultrasonic flow meter increases. When the bubble volume fraction exceeds 1%, the transit-time difference method of measuring the flow rate is nearly useless.
