Additional information
There are a very limited number of techniques available for providing reference local phase velocity VECTOR measurements in multiphase flows for validation of computational fluid dynamic models. This paper which is an output from EPSRC grant EP/E027237/1) (PI G. Lucas) describes work in which the four-sensor probe technique is optimized. Experimental results showed that for swirling oil-water flows (with an axial velocity of about 0.4m/s) the three orthogonal components of the oil droplet velocity vector could each be measured with an accuracy of better than plus or minus 0.025m/s.
