Abstract
The use of the transverse field electromagnetic meter for two-phase flows is investigated. It is shown both experimentally and theoretically that this device measures the average velocity of the continuous liquid phase provided this has some minimum electrical conductivity. The calibration is quite independent of void fraction, flow regime, axisymmetric velocity profile, or the electrical conductivity of the continuous liquid phase. The dynamic capability of the meter for use in measuring unsteady two-phase flows is also demonstrated to be considerable.
