Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems for flow measurements by alternating magnetic fields are provided. An example alternating magnetic field flowmeter includes a magnetic token movable within a conduit for guiding a fluid flow (conductive or non-conductive) along a flow path, a magnetic field generator configured to generate alternating magnetic fields within the conduit to move the magnetic token along the flow path with a first flow velocity and opposite to the flow path with a second flow velocity, a detector configured to measure respective first and second electrical signals responsive to the alternating magnetic fields, the first and second electrical signals associated with the first and second flow velocities, and a processor configured to determine a flow rate of the fluid based on the first and second electrical signals. The alternating magnetic field flowmeter can include a calibrator configured to manually or automatically calibrate the flow rate with a correction factor.

Abstract: A method of characterizing a fluid flow by an alternating magnetic field flow meter, comprising determining a flow rate of a fluid flowing through a conduit by generating a first magnetic field to move a magnetic token along a direction of a flow path of a fluid flowing through a conduit, detecting a first electrical signal based on the movement of the magnetic token, generating a second magnetic field to move the magnetic token opposite to the direction of the flow path, detecting a second electrical signal based on the movement of the magnetic token, and determining a conductivity of the fluid flowing through the conduit by generating a current along the flow path and detecting a third electrical signal based on the current generated along the flow path, and determining a conductivity measurement of the fluid flow based on the detected third electrical signal.
