Grant: Research Tools and Instruments - Category 1 (<$150,000)
University of British Columbia
$88,784.00
Acoustic laboratory for modeling, control and monitoring chemical processes
EF 2008-09
Résumé
Many important properties in chemical processes are either not measurable, or difficult to measure due to physical and other limitations. Continuous measurement of such properties is useful for online monitoring and control. It is well known that signature features of such properties are often present in passive and induced
acoustic signals emanating from chemical processes. The objective of this project is to create a state-of-the-art acoustic laboratory with instruments to transmit, receive, and process acoustic signals in a wide range of frequencies. This equipment will be used to characterize properties of a number of processes in research areas such as pulp & paper, fluidization reactors, fluid hydrodynamics, two and three phase flows.
