Outline of Final Research Achievements

A de-aliasing based on the dual PRF, pulse repetition frequency, method was introduced for ultrasonic pulsed Doppler method. Furthermore, a multi-wave ultrasonic method was proposed for the measurement. The higher ultrasonic basic frequency, f0, with smaller beam diameter, DUS, was used for measuring velocity profile near wall region, and the lower f0 with larger DUS was used for measuring velocity profile far from the transducer. For integrating the combined velocity profiles over the pipe, it was shown that the approximately 6 times larger flowrate was accurately obtained compared to by using the conventional pulsed Doppler method.
