Optimum Design of an Internal 8-Electrode Electrical Capacitance Tomography Sensor Array

Abstract:

This paper introduced an optimum design method of sensor array suitable for electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) based on high AC excitation voltage. The sensor parameters of electrode span and length were optimized in turn, and a sensor model for testing was fabricated according to optimal objects. The image reconstruction experimental resultants of grain distribution indicated that high quality images could be reconstructed by the sensor model. This proved the optimal design method of ECT sensor given in this paper was feasible and the parameters were also credible.
