Abstract: Monitoring multiphase flow in a visualized manner has always been a primary task of the process tomography. In this talk, the electrical resistance tomography systems developed for multiphase flow imaging in Tianjin University for the past few years will be presented. The boundary element methods for the phase distribution reconstruction, which improved the reconstruction efficiency, will be discussed. The applications of ERT in the multiphase flow pattern recognition, the flow velocity measurement will be presented, including the feature extraction methods and recognition methods. The ERT is then combined with other process sensors to jointly estimate the flow parameters by using the data fusion methods.
