Data acquisition for image sensor based tomography

Process tomography is a technique to realize flow imaging in a process vessel or pipeline by using the sensor system. It can be applied to many types of processes and unit operation, including stirred reactors, pipelines, mixers, fluidized bed and separator. Process tomography is a vital area of res...

description Process tomography is a technique to realize flow imaging in a process vessel or pipeline by using the sensor system.
