Abstract: A measurement system includes a vessel for containing a fluid and at least one solid material and a probe assembly for disposing partially into the fluid within the vessel. The probe assembly includes a hollow tube having an open lower longitudinal end and at least one pressure sensor within the hollow tube, the at least one pressure sensor configured to measure pressures of the fluid within the hollow tube at at least two different elevations. A method of measuring a mass of suspended solids within a fluid, the method includes receiving pressure measurements representing two different elevations of the fluid within a hollow tube and substantially free of the suspended solids and based at least partially on the received pressure measurements, determining a mass of the suspended solids.

Abstract: A triple bubbler system includes a first fluid probe, a second fluid probe, a third fluid probe, a gas source operably coupled to the first fluid probe, the second fluid probe, and the third fluid probe and configured to meter gas through the first fluid probe, the second fluid probe, and the third fluid probe to form bubbles at tips of each of the first fluid probe, the second fluid probe, and the third fluid probe, and a cover member disposed over the tips of the first, second, and third fluid probes and configured to at least partially prevent bubbles formed and escaping the tips of the first, second, and third fluid probes from interfering with other bubbles formed at each other tips. The bubbler system includes a thermocouple having a plurality of junctions disposed along an axis parallel to longitudinal axes of the first, second, and third fluid probes.
