J. Hemp, THEORY OF A SIMPLE ELECTROMAGNETIC VELOCITY PROBE WITH PREDICTION OF THE EFFECT ON SENSITIVITY OF A NEARBY WALL, Measurement science & technology, 6(4), 1995, pp. 376-382
A calculation of the sensitivity of a wafer-shaped electromagnetic vel
ocity probe is presented. This takes into account the electric and/or
magnetic effect of a plane wall near the probe and thus gives some ide
a of possible errors due to pipe walls in electromagnetic probe veloci
ty profile scanning. The concepts of surface and vorticity weight vect
ors are introduced and the potential of the former for electromagnetic
probe calculations is indicated.
