Abstract
This invention relates to a system for measuring electrical characteristics of a multiphase fluid flow in a pipe, the system comprising an essentially coaxial insert in said flow defining an annular space between a chosen part of said insert and the pipe wall. The system including resonance measuring means including at least one first antenna, the resonance measuring means being adapted to transmit an electromagnetic signal into said volume within a frequency range comprising at least one predetermined resonance in said volume, the resonance measuring means also being adapted to measure the resonance properties in said volume, said resonance having an amplitude minimum in at least one known position in said volume and said first antenna positioned outside said known position of amplitude minimum. The system also comprising transmission measuring means including a second antenna positioned at, or close to, said known position of amplitude minimum, and being adapted to measure a transmission property between said second antenna and at least one of said first antennas in said resonance measuring means. Based on these measurements the system is adapted to calculate said electrical characteristics.
