  • Patent number: 9006666
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a positron tomography imaging apparatus for a multiphase flow in an oil pipeline, which apparatus utilizes positron and electron annihilation generating a pair of coincidence gamma-rays of 511 keV energy as tomography imaging means and provides an on-line tomography imaging function for metering a multiphase flow in an oil pipeline of an oil field. The apparatus comprises a plurality of sets of parallel high-precision gamma-ray detector arrays with a particular space structure arrangement, a positron radioactive source and a shield, and can acquire a phase fraction of such multiphase flow mixture as oil, gas and water under a condition of a single radioactive source by combining an image processing function. The design of a plurality of sets of high-precision detector arrays also greatly improves accuracy of a multiphase flow metering and its applicability in multiphase flows of different flow patterns.
