Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ect) Optimization for Material of Electrode

Abstract

This project describes the use of Capacitance based tomography in the measurement of concentration profile of Multiphase Flow. It use an Capacitance tomography method which a electrode as receiver (sensor). The array of sensor will be installed at outside the pipeline. This project puts 8 electrode with a material difference to the electrode sensor. Example 8 electrode sensor for copper and 8 electrode for aluminum with each pipeline. Sensor will design simulation using Matlab to identify the tomography image formed in the pipe. Then, we will implement the hardware design to make the sensor out of the pipeline. The sensor will be measured value of capacitance using RCL meter in the anti-clockwise direction. The data will be analyzed and compare which best material to use in electrode sensor.
