Hi, all!
I'm trying to set up a strap on Doppler to measure flow of digested wastewater sludge. We've got lab data on most of the parameters we need, but I'm struggling to come up with a value for sound speed. We're looking at roughly a 7-8% dry solids measurement.
I've tested out the meter just running the sound speed of water, but the reading came back in the thousands of gpm instead of in the hundreds. (Compared with our inline flow meter, should be roughly 175gpm.)
We're testing it on a line with a known working flow meter in hopes that we can then use it to compare to a suspected faulty flow meter in a different location.
Any thoughts on how to derive this value? My Google skills are failing me.
Thanks for the help!
