ABSTRACT:
A method for the measurement of fluid velocity and fluid flow rate is described which may be applied to a system in which fluid is caused to exit through an orifice to form a free jet. Optical as well as fluidic properties of the jetting fluids are used to determine the mean velocity of the jet between its point of exit from the orifice and at least a preselected detection point. From the mean velocity determination, the fluid flow rate may also be determined. A marker signal perturbation is applied to the jetting fluid at the orifice, and is detected downstream at a stream sensing point which is located a preselected distance from that orifice.
