Several designs of two-electrodes capacitance sensor had been analyzed and optimized for void fraction measurement. The conventional two-electrode concave capacitance sensor showed high sensitivity but it was also the most affected by air-water distribution. Thus far, only two-electrodes concave design had been discussed. In this paper, the concave design is divided into two-, four-and six-electrode using finite element method. The sensitivity of the sensor, effect of air-water distribution and linearity of response are analyzed and compared. The numerical results showed that four-electrode concave sensor is more suitable than the conventional two-electrode for void fraction measurement in gas-liquid flow. © 2016 IEEE. date: 2017 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85016086054&doi=10.1109%2fICITEED.2016.7863245&partnerID=40&md5=1b2efc19b2257b2a24e067acf24cb384 id_number: 10.1109/ICITEED.2016.7863245 full_text_status: none publication: Proceedings of 2016 8th International Conference on Information Technology and Electrical Engineering: Empowering Technology for Better Future, ICITEE 2016 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781509041398 citation: Lim, L.G. and Tang, T.B.
