A method and corresponding device are provided for determining a flow speed in a fluid conduit. The fluid conduit is provided with first, second and third ultrasonic wet transducers, wherein respective connection lines between transducers extend outside of a direction of average flow of the fluid conduit. First and second measuring signals are applied to the first ultrasonic wet transducer and received at the second and the third ultrasonic wet transducer, respectively. The measuring signals comprise a respective reversed signal portion with respect to time of a response signal. Respective first and second response signals are measured and the flow speed is derived from at least one of the first and second response signals.

Beam shaping acoustic signal travel time flow meter

A transducer is provided for emitting and receiving acoustic waves, a method for operating and a method for producing the same. The transducer comprises a casing that forms a cavity. The casing comprises an excitation surface and an emitting surface, which is arranged opposite to the excitation surface. A transducer element is provided at the excitation surface, and an acoustic diffuser is provided at the emitting surface of the casing, wherein a diffusing structure of the acoustic diffuser faces the cavity, and wherein the diffusing structure is provided by an array of columns.

Compact wide angle acoustic transducer

A method for determining a flow speed of a liquid in a fluid conduit is provided. During a signal-generating phase, an impulse signal is applied to a first ultrasonic transducer. A response signal is then received at a second ultrasonic transducer. A measuring signal is later derived from the response signal, wherein the derivation comprises reversing a signal portion with respect to time. During a measurement phase, a liquid moves with respect to the fluid conduit. The measuring signal is then applied to one of the two transducers and a response signal of the measuring signal is measured at the other transducer. A flow speed is derived from the response signal of the measuring signal.

Signal travel time flow meter

A method and corresponding device are provided for determining a flow speed in a fluid conduit. The fluid conduit is provided with first, second and third ultrasonic transducers, wherein respective connection lines between transducers extend outside of a symmetry axis of the fluid conduit. First and second measuring signals are applied to the first ultrasonic transducer and received at the second and the third ultrasonic transducer, respectively. The measuring signals comprise a respective reversed signal portion with respect to time of a response signal. Respective first and second response signals are measured and the flow speed is derived from at least one of the first and second response signals.

The application provides a device for measuring at least one parameter value of a suspended sediment of a fluid. The device includes a backscattering transducer module, a storage unit, and a calculation unit. The backscattering transducer module comprises a source module and a receiver module. The source module transmits at least three acoustic signals with different fixed characterizing measurement frequencies while the receiver module measures at least three echo level values of echo signals, which correspond with the at least three acoustic signals. The storage unit stores a data set of pre-determined echo level values with a data set of pre-determined suspended sediment parameter values. The calculation unit derives at least one suspended sediment parameter value from the data sets and the at least three echo level values.
