Abstract: A device for measuring at least one flow parameter of a fluid through a duct, in particular the flow rate thereof, including a portion forming an obstacle, intended to be brought into contact with the flow, the shape of which being chosen so as to generate turbulence in the flow; a vibration sensor sensitive to vibrations caused on the portion forming an obstacle by the turbulence; a processing unit configured to calculate the flow parameter of the fluid based on at least one vibration signal delivered by the vibration sensor.

Abstract: A process for identifying the usage of electrical equipment connected to a power supply grid has an asynchronous motor coupled to a charge including identifying the usage of the electrical equipment by using an electrical signature of this equipment. The electrical signature is determined in a previous step and consists of a limited and predetermined set of characteristic frequencies and their harmonics obtained from the only information featuring on the identification plate of the asynchronous motor, and from visual inspection of the charge and its method for coupling to the asynchronous motor.
