Ultrasonic Velocity Profile (UVP) method for measurement of single-phase and two-phase flow in a vertical pipe has recently been developed in the Laboratory for industrial and Environmental Fluid Dynamics, Institute of Mechanics, VAST. The signal processings of the UVP method include the ultrasonic pulse Doppler method (UDM)and the ultrasonic time-domain cross-correlation (UTDC) method. For two-phase flow, simultaneous measurements of both liquid and gas are enabled by using a multi-wave ultrasonic transducer (multi-wave TDX). The multi-wave TDX is able to emit and receive ultrasound of two different center frequencies of 2 MHz and 8 MHz at the same time and position. 2 MHz frequency with beam diameter 10 mm is exploited for measurement of gas. 8 MHz one with beam diameter 3 mm is used for liquid. Measurements have been carried out for laminar and turbulent single-phase flows and bubbly counter-current two-phase flows in two flow loops using two vertical pipes of 26 mm inner diameter (I.D.) and 50 mm I.D. respectively. Based on the measured results, assessment of each method is clarified. Applicability of each method for different conditions of pipe flow has been tested. Suggestions for application of the two methods have been recommended.

Truncated Newton

In order to exploit Hessian information in Full Waveform Inversion (FWI), the matrix-free truncated Newton method can be used. In such a method, Hessian-vector product computation is one of the major concerns due to the huge memory requirements and demanding computational cost. Using the adjoint-state method, the Hessian-vector product can be estimated by zero-lag cross-correlation of the first-order/second-order incident wavefields and the second-order/first-order adjoint wavefields. Different from the implementation in frequency-domain FWI, Hessian-vector product construction in the time domain becomes much more challenging as it is not affordable to store the entire time-dependent wavefields. The widely used wavefield recomputation strategy leads to computationally intensive tasks. We present an efficient alternative approach to computing the Hessian-vector product for time-domain FWI. In our method, discrete Fourier transform is applied to extract frequency-domain components of involved wavefields, which are used to compute wavefield cross-correlation in the frequency domain. This makes it possible to avoid reconstructing the first-order and second-order incident wavefields. In addition, a full-scattered-field approximation is proposed to efficiently simplify the second-order incident and adjoint wavefields computation, which enables us to refrain from repeatedly solving the first-order incident and adjoint equations for the second-order incident and adjoint wavefields (re)computation. With the proposed method, the computational time can be reduced by 70% and 80% in viscous media for Gauss-Newton and full-Newton Hessian-vector product construction, respectively. The effectiveness of our method is also verified in the frame of a 2D multi-parameter inversion, in which the proposed method almost reaches the same iterative convergence of the conventional time-domain implementation.

Aiming at characterizing interfacial roughness of thin coatings with unknown sound velocity and thickness, we derive a full time-domain ultrasonic reflection coefficient phase spectrum (URCPS) as a function of interfacial roughness based on the phase screen approximation theory. The constructed URCPS is used to determine the velocity, thickness, and interfacial roughness of specimens through the cross-correlation algorithm. The effect of detection frequency on the roughness measurement is investigated through the finite element method. A series of simulations were implemented on Ni-coating specimens with a thickness of 400 μm and interfacial roughness of 1.9–39.8 μm. Simulation results indicated that the measurement errors of interfacial roughness were less than 10% when the roughness satisfies the relationship of Rq = 1.6–10.0%λ. The measured velocity and thicknesses were in good agreement with those imported in simulation models with less than 9.3% error. Ultrasonic experiments were carried out on two Ni-coating specimens through a flat transducer with an optimized frequency of 15 MHz. Compared with the velocities measured by time-of-flight (TOF) method, the relative errors of inversed velocities were all less than 10%. The inversed thicknesses were in good agreement with those observed by optical microscopy with less than 10.9% and 7.6% error. The averaged interfacial roughness determined by the ultrasonic inversion method was 16.9 μm and 30.7 μm, respectively. The relative errors were 5.1% and 2.0% between ultrasonic and confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) method, respectively.
