Abstract :
The design of a real time system for obtaining cross sectional concentration distributions in two component flows is described. A transputer based parallel processing network is used to satisfy the processing bandwidth requirements, providing a frame rate in excess of 70 Hz. Novel capacitance transducer techniques are employed for the sensor subsystem. Results from real industrial flows are presented
