Title: Innovations by Rune Sørhus
Introduction
Rune Sørhus is a notable inventor based in Hafrsfjord, Norway. He has made significant contributions to the field of flow measurement technology. With a total of 2 patents, Sørhus has developed innovative methods that enhance the accuracy and efficiency of fluid measurement systems.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a method for monitoring a body inserted in a conduit. This method involves positioning a body at a distance from the pipe wall, creating a gap that acts as an electromagnetic resonator. The process includes applying an electromagnetic signal, monitoring the frequency response through a coupling probe, and analyzing the response to measure movements induced by turbulent flow. This invention also features an insert with a support structure designed to minimize interference with resonance measurements.
Another significant patent by Sørhus is a flow meter for measuring fluid mixtures. This invention focuses on obtaining individual flow rates of gas, liquid hydrocarbons, and water in a predominantly gas-containing fluid mixture. The flow meter includes a water content meter that provides a signal representing the water content of the fluid. Additionally, it features a double differential pressure generating and measuring structure, known as a DDP-unit, which produces two independent differential pressure measurement signals. A signal processing unit processes these signals to calculate the volumetric flow rates of the various components in the fluid.
