    The present invention relates to a method for the contactless determination of several parameters of a liquid flow.
    STATE OF THE ART
    The characterization of process streams in chemical plants is of great importance for the industry. The online recording of physical and chemical properties of flows such as speed, turbulence, chemical composition and concentration plays an essential role in the setting and optimization of industrial processes and systems. Various, including contactless, techniques are available for recording these properties, whereby Raman spectroscopy has recently been used to determine the composition and concentration of chemical compounds contained in a flow.
    Raman spectroscopy is based on the Raman scattering of monochromatic light on molecules, the monochromatic light used usually originating from a laser (RS Das, YK Agrawal, Raman spectroscopy: recent advancements, techniques and applications, Vibrational Spectroscopy 57.2 (2011): 163 -176). Rinke et al. (Rinke, Günter, et al., In situ Raman imaging combined with computational fluid dynamics for measuring concentration profiles during mixing processes, Chem. Eng. 179 (2012): 338-348) show the use of a pulsed Raman imaging method to determine the Concentration of two components (water and ethanol) when exiting a macro mixer. The authors also compared their results with data from flow simulations using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in order to demonstrate the suitability of Raman imaging for measuring concentration profiles. The time resolution that can be achieved depends on the laser repetition frequency and the camera speed. When using CFD in combination with RS, concentration profiles are created from a large number of detected Raman-scattered photons.
    For the actual measurement of the speed and the turbulent fluctuations, the following contactless methods are known, for example.

    Laser Doppler Velocimetry, LDV, or Laser Doppler Anemometry, LDA, (the two terms are used interchangeably here) is the determination of the speed of laser light reflected on particles by means of the Doppler shift, i.e. at one point (i.e. by means of a single measurement) for which seeding (or: tracer) particles are usually added, at which Doppler scattering can take place without prior calibration.
    LDV records with high accuracy the mean velocity and the local instantaneous velocity (fluctuations) of a flow by determining the velocity of tracer particles that pass through two collimated, monochromatic and coherent laser beams (LE Drain, The laser Doppler techniques, Chichester, Sussex, England and New York, Wiley-Interscience, 250 p. 1 (1980)). Two coherent laser beams are focused in a small volume, forming a special fringe light pattern. If tracer particles pass through this fringe zone in the flow, which consists of brighter and darker strips of light, they scatter this light. The backscattered light is collected in a receiver probe and detected using a photomultiplier. Since the distance between light and dark stripes is known, the particle speed can be calculated from the frequency of the scattered light. The average flow velocity and turbulence information (turbulence intensity, turbulent kinetic energy) of the flow can be calculated from the collected speed data (DFG Durao, Μ. V. Heitor and JCF Pereira, Measurements of turbulent and periodic flows around a square cross-section cylinder , Experiments in Fluids 6.5 (1988): 298-304).
    In MolecularTagging Velocimetry, MTV, molecules are excited with light and thus tagged, and the fluorescent or phosphorescent light emitted by them is detected, the speed being calculated from at least two measurements. Combinations of MTV and Raman spectroscopy are also known. For example, Beushausen et al. (Beushausen, Volker, et al., 2Dmeasurement technique for simultaneous quantitative determination of mixing ratio and velocity field in microfluidic applications, Imaging Measurement Methods for Flow -23/35 • · • ·
    Analysis, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 155-164 (2009)] combined 2D Molecular Tagging Velocimetry (2D MTV) with PSRS, i.e. planar spontaneous Raman scattering to investigate the speed and concentration field of water and ethanol in a micromixer. In addition, they compared their results with those of a common pPIV procedure.
    Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) uses a large number of snapshots to visually track the movements of particles, which can be converted into vector fields and speed values. A combination of PIV and Raman spectroscopy is described, for example, by Wellhausen et al. known [Μ. Wellhausen, G. Rinke and H. Wackerbarth, Combined measurement of concentration distribution and velocity field of two components in a micromixing process, Microfluidics and Nanofluidics 12.6 (2012): 917-926), who investigated the mixing behavior in a micromixer.
    The disadvantages of these known combinations of speed measurement using MTV or PIV and Raman scattering are, among other things, that on the one hand a large number of measurements for determining speed and composition or concentration are required, which are also carried out at different positions of the flow and are therefore not really reliable Allow statements, especially if the velocity of the flow is high and the concentration of the analyte (s) is low.
    Due to the relatively low recording frequency of multiple images, detection of high-frequency fluctuations is only possible with considerable effort in conventional PIV systems, for example using a recording frequency which, according to the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem, corresponds to at least twice the frequency of the maximum frequency to be observed. This means that either only limited measurements of turbulence characteristics within the flow or measurements with considerable image storage and postprocessing are possible. In addition, PIV measurements on the one hand require two optical accesses to the flow to be observed, namely one for the laser cut and normal for it
    -34/35
    another for the camera, and on the other hand a significantly higher concentration of seeding particles than LDV.
    Against this background, the aim of the invention was to provide an improved contactless method for determining the speed and concentration of flows.
    DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
    The present invention achieves this aim by providing a method for the contactless determination of both the velocity of a liquid flow and the concentration of at least one analyte therein, wherein:
    a) the flow velocity is measured in a manner known per se by means of laser Doppler anemometry, LDA, using tracer particles which pass through an interference fringe pattern in the intersection area of two coherent monochromatic light beams and thereby generate a scattered light signal whose frequency is proportional to that perpendicular to the interference fringes trending velocity component of the flow; and
    b) the concentration of the at least one analyte is measured in a manner known per se by means of Raman spectroscopy, by irradiating a monochromatic light beam and recording the Raman spectrum of the light inelastically scattered by analyte molecules in the flow, the light intensity being from frequencies which only occur in the scattered light is proportional to the concentration of the analyte molecules in the flow; in which
    c) a single light source is used for both LDA and Raman spectroscopy, so that both measurements are carried out in the intersection of the two coherent light beams originating from the light source, the speed being measured by means of photons elastically scattered on the tracer particles and the concentration is measured by means of photons inelastically scattered on analyte molecules.
    5/35
    The present invention thus does not simply combine LDA and Raman spectroscopy into a single method in which the speed values measured by means of LDA are compared with the concentration values determined on the basis of Raman scattering, but goes one step further by using a single light source for speed measurement using LDV and concentration measurement using Raman spectroscopy is used. In this way, both the speed and various turbulence indicators as well as the concentration of one or more analytes can be determined at a single point within the flow, for which a single measurement would also be sufficient.
    The combination according to the invention of two methods which are known per se and which are combined in a novel manner to form a single measurement method thus offers a synergy effect since the scattered light from the same laser beams is used for different purposes.
    The fact that the desired information regarding the flow rate and concentration of one or more specific analytes can be obtained from a single measurement enables a large number of measurements to be carried out within a short time in order to average the measurement results and thus increase the measurement accuracy or detect higher-frequency fluctuations can.
    In preferred embodiments of the invention, the elastically scattered photons serving for speed measurement are detected by means of the same lens optics which are also used for the irradiation of the light beams, i.e. the photons backscattered to the lens optics are detected, whereby there is no need to provide a separate lens or light guide for detecting the photons elastically scattered on the tracer particles. According to the present invention, however, the inelastically scattered photons are particularly preferably collected by means of the same lens optics, in order not to have to use separate optics for Raman spectroscopy either. This enables an extremely compact design for one

    Implementation of the present invention suitable measuring arrangement in a single, easily transportable device. In addition, only a single optical access to the flow is required in this way.
    In further preferred embodiments, the light beams radiated into the flow from the light source are shifted slightly in frequency during the measurement by means of a Bragg cell in order to generate a moving interference pattern in the intersection area, on the basis of which the direction of flow is determined. Non-moving particles therefore provide scattered light with the shift frequency, with moving particles the frequency is added or subtracted depending on the direction of flow. Since the shift frequency is known, the particle movement or flow direction can be determined more precisely.
    It is further preferred according to the present invention that a polychromatic light source is used, the light of which is divided into more than one pair of coherent light beams with different wavelengths, preferably into two or three pairs of beams that are focused on the same point in order to generate the interference pattern. This has the advantage that several speed and turbulence components can be detected simultaneously for a single measuring point, namely one for each pair of beams, in order to describe the flow state in more detail.
    In further preferred embodiments of the method according to the invention, the crossing area of the light beams between individual measurements is made using a traversing, e.g. with a motor-driven mirror for one- or two-dimensional positioning of the measuring point, spatially shifted, whereby measurements can be carried out at several different measuring points. This enables the creation of a velocity profile of the flow under investigation, which of course significantly increases the precision of the determined velocity parameter.
    -67/35
    As already mentioned, according to the present invention, the inelastically scattered photons used for concentration measurement are preferably detected by means of the same lens optics that are also used for irradiation. As an alternative to this, however, they can also be detected by means of a lens optic positioned at a 90 ° angle to the beam direction, as is routinely carried out when examining liquids, in order to minimize elastically scattered photons that reach the detector.
    The lens of a CCD camera is preferably used as the lens optics, onto which the wavelengths isolated using a monochromator (e.g. a Czerny-Turner monochromator) are directed even more preferably. The CCD detector of the camera replaces the photomultiplier otherwise used to convert the signal into electrical signals and amplify them.
    A spectrograph is particularly preferably connected to the CCD camera, which generates the associated spectrum from the detected scattered light signal, which spectrum may be forwarded to an iCCD camera. If this detector arrangement is (also) designed to be spatially displaceable by means of a traversing unit, 2D and 3D profiles can also be recorded for the inelastically scattered photons, from which 2D and 3D concentration distributions can be calculated.
    Furthermore, according to the present invention, the signals detected in LDA and Raman spectroscopy are preferably synchronized in time, which ensures that the speed and concentration information originate from the same flow volume, which otherwise can lead to errors, especially in multiphase flows.

    Streak light patterns form, as shown in the schematic enlargement in the left part of FIG. 1. Tracer particles 2 carried in the flow 1 to be examined pass through this pattern consisting of lighter and darker light stripes, and on their surface this light is scattered under the action of the Doppler effect. Preferably, the back scattered light 8 is detected in order to be able to use the same lens optics as for emitting the laser beams 4 and 5 also for receiving the scattered light 8, which makes it possible to manage with only one optical access to the flow. The particle speed can be calculated from the frequency of the scattered light 8 and the known distance between light and dark stripes.
    Due to the small size and the low concentration of the tracer particles, it can be assumed that they follow flow 1 and have no effect on the flow pattern (PK Rastogi, ed., Photomechanics, Vol. 77, Springer Science & Business Media (2003) ; Richard Goldstein, Fluid mechanics measurements, CRC Press (1996)).

Thereby, photons interact with the molecules in the sample, whereby they either give off energy to the matter (Stokes shift) or take up energy (Amti-Stokes shift) and the energy shift of the scattered photons 10 is specific and characteristic for a certain molecule.

    The results achieved by the embodiments of the invention described in detail below were coordinated with those of computer simulations using computational fluid dynamics, as numerical analysis is called in fluid mechanics (Μ.

Analyzes can be applied to various orders of magnitude, e.g. Micromixers or entire industrial plants. In general, the CFD is verified by experiments. Then, using the validated models, various changes to the system can be simulated on the computer and optimized modifications can be found (JD Anderson and J.

    Process of the present invention
    The general approach of the present invention is schematically outlined in FIG. A flow conducted in a channel is analyzed simultaneously by means of LDV with regard to its flow velocity and with the aid of Raman spectroscopy with regard to its composition, by emitting two light beams 4, 5 from a common light source, which replace the light beam 9 emitted for Raman spectroscopy because of their wavelength is also matched to the nature of the analyte or analytes, the concentration of which is to be determined in the flow. This is usually in the visible or near infrared range. In the intersection area 3 of the two laser beams, on the one hand the interference pattern is generated, at the passage of which there is elastic scattering of the photons on tracer particles, but at the same time analyte molecules dissolved in the flow interact with the radiation, as a result of which photons are scattered inelastically. According to preferred embodiments of the present invention, the light 8 backscattered by the tracer particles is detected by means of the same lens optics for the speed determination by means of LDV, which is also used for irradiation of the light beams 4 and 5 and is identified in FIG. 3 by LDV. In contrast, the light 10 scattered inelastically on the analyte molecules is detected by means of a Raman detector, which is preferably arranged at an angle of 90 ° to the direction of irradiation. As an alternative, however, the same lens optics can be used for this as for irradiation.
    4 schematically shows the measurement setup for carrying out the method according to the invention using a flow consisting of a mixture of water and ethanol (cf.Rinke et al., See above). In the center is a T-shaped flow channel made of glass and aluminum, as shown enlarged in the following Figures 5 and 6, with inlets for components A (water) and B (91% alcohol) via the respective pumps 1 and 2, one Inlet 20 for tracer particles, a subsequent rectifier 19, an outlet opening into a container for liquid waste, and respective temperature and pressure sensors (Ti, Pi).

    A laser beam emitted by a laser light source 11 is frequency controlled via a Bragg cell 13 and divided into two pairs of beams of different frequencies, i.e. a total of four beams 4, 5, 6, 7 divided, which are fed via respective light guides to a focusing optics 12, which focuses the four beams 4 + 6 and 5 + 7 at a point within the flow channel, so that an interference pattern in the intersection area 3 of the beams is produced. The use of four instead of only two beams has the advantage that two speed components can be recorded simultaneously and the signal quality can be increased by means of coincidence methods during the evaluation.
    The photons which are elastically scattered in the intersection area are collected as scattered light 8 by the same optics 12 and fed to a combined photomultiplier and signal processor 18 for signal amplification and processing. The inelastically scattered photons, on the other hand, are collected as scattered light 10 by a CCD camera 15 positioned at a 90 ° angle to the direction of radiation, which converts the optical signals into electrical signals, which are subsequently fed to a spectograph 16, which contains the signals of different intensities in it Spectrum decomposed, which is finally amplified and stored by an iCCD camera 17. By means of a traversing unit 14, the entire structure could be spatially shifted in order to carry out measurements at several different measuring points, which made it possible to record velocity profiles of the flow or 2D and 3D Raman spectra and concentration profiles of the analyte.

    Material and implementation
    Various liquids were tested to determine suitable material for the LDV / Raman measurements. Water (tap water) and ethanol (91.12% ethanol + 8.88% water) were finally selected for the following reasons.
    - non-toxic
    - easy availability
    - suitable Raman spectrum (both liquids can be clearly identified, sufficient intensity)
    - Similar physical properties.
    5 shows an enlarged view of the T-shaped flow channel. Water was pumped into the channel through the straight inlet inlet component A, ethanol through the side inlet inlet component B. A gravimetric method was used to determine the mass flows of the two liquids, the weight of the liquid tanks being measured and recorded using a balance. Rectifiers were installed at both inlets in order to reduce inlet effects on the flow and to ensure a homogeneous flow in the channel. The cross section of the channel was 10 x 30 mm.
    The LDV measurement time per measurement point was set to 10 s or 10,000 valid particle signals (counts), while the composition was measured every second using Raman. Spherical aluminum particles (diameter <0.045 mm, Stokes number
    -1314/35 • · <1) were used as tracer particles for the LDV measurement, the concentration in both streams being -100 ppm. The particles were introduced and dispersed by adding them to the liquid tanks.
    LDV measurement data were obtained with the following signal processor settings:
    - Burst threshold: 50 mV
    - Bandpass filter: 1-10 MHz
    - Downmix frequency: 35 MHz
    The two speed components were measured at four positions of the channel, as shown in FIG. 6. Since there are only pure components at the inlets, only one LDA measurement was carried out at 11 points for profiles 1 and 2. In contrast, in the mixing zone for profiles 3 and 4, LDA and Raman measurements were carried out at 16 points. All measurements were carried out in the center of the channel in the Z direction at 298 K and ambient pressure (10 5 Pa).
    In order to verify the measurement results, a CFD simulation of the experiment was carried out with the open source program OpenFOAM® [www.openfoam.com]. Based on the OpenFOAM® platform, a new solver (viscoFoam) was developed for the simulation of mixing currents. The boundary conditions for the simulations were chosen according to the experimental conditions (inlet temperature, ambient pressure, mass flow). Since the Reynolds number in the channel was in the range of the critical Reynolds number (water inlet: -3700, EtOH inlet 2: -1700, after mixing: -5000) the transition turbulence model was developed by Menter et al. used (FR Menter et al., A correlation-based transition model using local variables Part I: model formulation, Journal of Turbomachinery 128.3 (2006): 413-422; RB Langtry et al., A correlation-based transition model using local variables Part II: test cases and industrial applications, Journal of Turbomachinery 128.3 (2006): 423-434; RB Langtry and FR Menter, Correlation-based transition modeling for unstructured parallelized computational fluid dynamics Codes, AIAA journal 47.12 (2009): 28942906; RB Langtry and Menter FR, transition modeling for general CFD applications in aeronautics, 43 rd AIAA Aerospace Sciences meeting and Exhibit. 2005).

    Turbulent kinetic energy is defined as the mean kinetic energy of the turbulent fluctuations (local speed fluctuations, vortices) based on the mass of the fluid (DC Wilcox, Turbulence modeling for CFD, Vol. 2, La Canada, CA: DCW industries (1998); PT Harsha and SC Lee, Use of turbulent kinetic energy in free mixing studies, AIAA Journal 8.6 (1970): 1026-1032). For a two-dimensional flow, the turbulent kinetic energy can be calculated as follows (P. Saarenrinne and Μ. Piirto, Turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate estimation from PIV velocity vector fields, Experiments in Fluids 29 (2000): S300-S307):

    Fig. 8 shows time averaged Raman spectroscopy data of profile 3 (see in Fig. 6). Using a calibration curve, the data could be evaluated and the concentrations of water and ethanol calculated and displayed for each point. 10 Raman measurements were carried out per measuring point, each measurement taking 1 s.
    The mass of the liquid tanks was recorded during the experiment and the mass flows were determined therefrom. As can be seen in FIG. 9, the average mass flow for water (component A) is -0.08 kg / s and for ethanol (component B) is -0.04 kg / s. The jump points at the water inlet can be explained by refilling the water tank twice during the experiment.

    Results and discussion
    LDA measurements
    The results of the LDA measurements of all profiles were evaluated and presented. The comparison with the CFD simulation shows that the results agree well with the prediction.
    10 shows measured and simulated speed profiles on different cross sections. Vertical bars show the fluctuation range of the speed due to the turbulence, i.e. the average velocity fluctuation based on the turbulent kinetic energy and horizontal bars the error caused by the tolerance of the positioning of the laser focus point in the flow channel. In profiles 3 and 4, some invalid measuring points (triangles) were replaced by measuring points from another experiment under the same conditions. The solid line corresponds to the results of the CFD.
    Looking at velocity profiles 1 and 2, the average mass flow is 0.07 kg / s for the water inlet and 0.04 kg / s for the alcohol inlet, which is in good agreement with the values obtained from the balance. 10 shows the measurement results in comparison with the results of the CFD simulation. These agree within the expected measurement inaccuracy, which can be seen, for example, at the speed maximum near the wall in profile 3.
    Raman measurements
    The concentration data of the Raman measurement were only recorded on profiles 3 and 4, since only these profiles were in the mixing zone and a concentration gradient was therefore to be expected. The dots in Fig. 11 show the experimental data (time averaged concentration information), the horizontal bars indicating the error due to the tolerance of the positioning of the laser focus point and the vertical bars indicating the concentration fluctuation over time.

    As can be seen in Fig. 11, the experimental data agree quite well with the simulation results. Profile 3 shows the position of the ethanol concentration change and the maximum concentration well. Profile 4 also shows an acceptable agreement of the maxima and minima as well as the general course of concentration.
    Summary
    A new method for simultaneous measurement of speed and concentration data is presented, which is based on the combination of two established methods, laser Doppler anemometry and stand-off Raman spectroscopy. The laser source of the LDA measurement is used several times: The backscattered light of the tracer particles in the fluid flow is evaluated to determine the speed and the turbulent speed fluctuations. In addition, Raman spectra are collected at the focus of the LDA measurement. Spatial and temporal synchronization take place via a traversing system, which moves the optical structure to accommodate profiles in the flowed-through geometry. In addition to the measurements, CFD simulations of the flow channel were also carried out in order to compare the experimental results to validate the measurement setup. A good agreement between simulation and experiment was found, which confirms the technical applicability.
    The combination of LDA or LDV and Raman measurements according to the invention using a single light source thus enables simultaneous speed and concentration measurements at the same location within the flow to be examined using a single light source, which justifies a synergistic effect of this combination.
