In-line measurement of the mass flow rate of solids in pneumatic conveying pipelines is essential for the efficient and optimized operation of many industrial processes. This paper presents a comparative study of using induced and transferred charges from non-intrusive electrodes exposed to the particle flow for mass flow rate measurement. A novel signal conditioning circuit, which consists of a current sense amplifier and a charge amplifier, is designed to convert the induced and transferred charges into two separate voltage signals. Empirical measurement models that relate the particle velocity, the root-mean-square (r.m.s) magnitude of the induced charge signal and the slope of the transferred charge signal to the mass flow rate are proposed. Experiments were undertaken using electrodes of different widths and under different mass flow rate and particle velocity conditions. Results obtained show that both the r.m.s magnitude of the induced charge signal and the slope of the transferred charge signal increase with the mass flow rate and the velocity of particles. In general, the measurement results using the induced and transferred charges from either the narrow or the wide electrode are similar. However, the method based on the transferred charge is less reliable due to confined sensing area and electrode charging by particles adhered to the electrode surface. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.
