Abstract: A method for measuring properties of a flowing fluid composition comprising at least two different components, while the fluid composition is flowing through a duct or channel, which flow meter comprises: at least one sensor (2, 3) in the shape of a cavity resonator through which at least a portion of the fluid composition passes; at least one electronic circuit (4) comprising a transmitting means (11) adapted to transmit an electronic signal (9) into the flowing fluid via a probe (7, 11); at least one receiving means adapted to receive a signal which has traveled through the flowing fluid composition; and at least one signal processing unit (12) adapted to deduce fluid specific signals from the received signals. An oscillator included in the electronic unit (4) may, in a preferred embodiment, be phase locked to the resonant frequency of the sensor (2, 3) (in a so-called FSA (feedback self-oscillating amplification) method).
