The complex multiphase gas-solid flow has always been a point of attraction for researchers over the past decade to explore the sensing techniques to sense and measure the mass flow. Weather dilute or dense phase flow, the gas-solid flow measurement generally requires velocity profile and volumetric concentration measurement to find the mass flow rate. The nature of the solids, the environmental factors-specially moisture adversely affects the sensor readings-specifically when it is non-invasive capacitive sensors. Gas-solid flow finds its applications in power plants, food, chemical, automobile, and pharmaceutical industries. This paper aims to explore the evolution of a novel approach of using load cell in conjunction with capacitive electrodes for calculating the mass flow rate of the solids.
