Method And System For Multi-Path Ultrasonic Flow Measurement Of Partially Developed Flow Profiles

View page
US Patent:
7299140, Nov 20, 2007
Filed:
Dec 14, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/300128
Inventors:
Fenghua Liu - College Station TX, US
Michael Masterov - Houston TX, US
Prakash Mistry - Sugar Land TX, US
Assignee:
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. - Sugar Land TX
International Classification:
G01F 1/00
US Classification:
702 45, 702 48
Abstract:
A method for determining a velocity of a flowing fluid includes estimating a Reynolds number for the flowing fluid; comparing the estimated Reynolds number with a selected range; and determining the velocity of the flowing fluid based on a flow model selected from a laminar flow model, a turbulent flow model, and a partial laminar flow model. An ultrasonic flow meter includes a plurality pairs of transducers configured to form a plurality of measurement paths in a pipe, wherein the plurality of measurement paths are arranged asymmetrically relative to a centerline of the pipe.

View page
US Patent:
7368726, May 6, 2008
Filed:
Feb 2, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/049360
Inventors:
Alexander Joseph Esin - Cedar Park TX, US
Michael Masterov - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. - Sugar Land TX
International Classification:
H01J 47/02
US Classification:
250386, 250374, 250379, 376255, 376153
Abstract:
A method for measuring high-energy radiation flux includes applying a positive voltage to electrodes in an ion chamber filled with a gas capable of forming charged ions by a high-energy radiation, measuring a positive ion current signal related to ion currents induced by the positive voltage, applying a negative voltage to the electrodes, measuring a negative signal related to ion currents induced by the negative voltage, and determining a magnitude of the high-energy radiation flux based on the ion current signal.

Density Measurement With Gamma Backscattering

View page
US Patent:
7469033, Dec 23, 2008
Filed:
Nov 13, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/598559
Inventors:
Alex Kulik - Sugar Land TX, US
Nikolay Baturin - Sugar Land TX, US
Alexander Joseph Esin - Cedar Park TX, US
Michael Masterov - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. - Sugar Land TX
International Classification:
G01B 15/02
US Classification:
378 54, 378 57
Abstract:
A system for measuring the density of a fluid in a vessel, the system including: at least one gamma-ray source positioned proximate to the vessel; at least one gamma-ray detector positioned proximate to the vessel, wherein the at least one gamma-ray detector is configured to detect gamma rays backscattered by the fluid from the at least one gamma-ray source; and a translator for converting the detected gamma-ray backscatter to a density value. A method to determine properties of a fluid in a vessel, the method including: positioning a gamma-ray source proximate to the vessel; positioning a gamma-ray detector proximate to the vessel; detecting gamma rays backscattered by the fluid from the gamma-ray source with the gamma-ray detector; determining a density of the fluid based upon an intensity of backscattered gamma rays received by the gamma-ray detector.

Reed Relay For Magnetic Field Measurement

US Patent:
7710112, May 4, 2010
Filed:
Aug 31, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/849076
Inventors:
Nikolay Baturin - Sugar Land TX, US
Alexander J. Esin - Cedar Park TX, US
Alex Kulik - Sugar Land TX, US
Michael Masterov - Houston TX, US
Assignee:
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. - Sugar Land TX
International Classification:
G01R 33/02
US Classification:
324244, 324262
Abstract:
An apparatus for measuring a strength of a magnetic field, including a switch including contacts configured to change position when a switching threshold is reached, wherein the switching threshold is reached by modifying an external magnetic field around the switch, and a coil wound around the switch, wherein the coil is used to modify the external magnetic field, wherein a first current is driven through the coil wound around the switch until a first switching threshold is obtained, wherein a second current is driven through the coil wound around the switch until a second switching threshold is obtained, and wherein a value of the first current when the first switching threshold is reached and a value of the second current when the second switching threshold is reached are used to determine the strength of the magnetic field.

8223913, Jul 17, 2012
Filed:
Mar 31, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/815157

Michael Masterov - Houston TX, US
Alexander Joseph Esin - Cedar Park TX, US
Assignee:
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. - Sugar Land TX
International Classification:
G01T 3/00
G01T 1/18
G21C 17/00
H01J 47/00
US Classification:
376154, 376153, 376255, 250386, 250379, 250374

Multiple Frequency Doppler Flow Meter

View page
US Patent:
6408699, Jun 25, 2002
Filed:
Oct 6, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/166989
Inventors:
Robert A. Moss - Sugarland TX
Michael Masterov - Houston TX
Assignee:
Polysonics, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
G01F 166
US Classification:
7386126, 7386125
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and system for measuring fluid velocity in pipes alternately transmitting two or more ultrasonic frequencies through a pipe wall into a fluid containing scatterers. For each transmission frequency, energy reflected from the scatterers is mixed with the transmission frequency and the result sampled at a rate which is a constant fraction of the transmission frequency. The combination of the Doppler effect on frequencies reflected from the moving scatterers, and the described sampling rate scheme combine to permit isolation of velocity related frequencies from extraneous frequencies in the reflected energy in a computationally efficient manner. A single frequency which represents fluid velocity is extracted from the gathered data, and the fluid velocity readily calculated therefrom using the Doppler formula. The invention provides a system and method for measuring fluid velocity which is simple, reliable, and cost effective.
