I have a question regarding the measurement of medium concentration!
Thread Content
The medium used in my facility is a mixture of cold water, hot water, and cornmeal; the ratio between water and cornmeal is around 100:6. I’m wondering if there are any instruments that can continuously measure its concentration online. Thank you!
It’s a suspension – that is, cornmeal mixed with water
I have only encountered situations where pressure is measured; I’m not sure whether concentration is determined by measuring pressure first. I learned this from my clients, who said that a pressure transmitter with a diaphragm structure is needed to measure pressure.
There are no industrial instruments that can directly measure concentration; in the case of two-fluid systems, the ratio is used to control the final concentration inside the tank. In your current situation, only quantitative methods can be used to control the concentration.
A refractometer is used to measure the concentration of liquids. Since I have not encountered this situation before, I am not sure whether a refractometer is suitable
