A instrument has been developed for measuring the velocity of solid particles adjacent to the pipe wall in a solids-liquid pipeline. It has been based on the Doppler shift principle and employs ultrasonic methods for detecting the bed-load particle velocity. Its application is in the mining industry for measuring the bed-load velocity of high concentration slurries such as in tailings and backfill hydraulic pipelines. Analyses have been conducted to investigate methods for increasing the accuracy of detecting the bed-load particle velocity. These methods have been implemented in the design of the transducer and the electronic circuitry. The system was tested using a simulation test-rig, hydraulic test-loops and at two industrial mining locations. 2014-10-11T12:05:50Z 2014-10-11T12:05:50Z 1989 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8332 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
