- Abstract:
- The assessment of the metrological performance of a virtual flowmeter-based transducer for helium under cryogenic conditions is proposed. At this aim, first a model of the transducer, mainly based on a virtual flowmeter exploiting Sereg-Schlumberger method and a valve model exploiting finite-element approach, is presented. The transducer and valve models are validated experimentally on a case study for helium monitoring in cryogenic systems at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). Then, a fully simulated approach is performed in order to assess the transducer performance. In particular, the analysis effort is optimized by systematically exploring operating conditions by means of 3d-CCRD strategy.
