Abstract
This paper describes several types of sensor use in measuring mass flow rate of solids flowing in pneumatic conveyors. Each sensor will applied different principle but most of them are able to achieve 10% homogeneity error. These sensor techniques include capacitance sensor, electrostatic sensor, microwave sensor, radiological sensor, combination of electrostatic and digital imaging sensor and others. The sensing filed designs need to be uniform, thus particles exist within the sensing field will contribute equally to the flow signal.
