Original Abstract Submitted
A fluid conductivity sensor (FCS) system for determining a water void fraction in a fluid mixture flows comprises a duct containing the fluid mixture flows; a dielectric window system operatively connected to the duct, wherein the dielectric window system comprises a first dielectric window built-into a first surface of a wall of the duct and a second dielectric window built-into a second surface of the wall aligned and opposite to the first surface; a split-toroidal loop-gap resonator (split-TLGR) system operatively connected to the dielectric window system and the duct, wherein the split-TLGR system comprises a first split-TLGR built-into the first dielectric window and a second split-TLGR built-into the second dielectric window; and a vector network analyzer (VNA) operatively connected to the split-TLGR system and configured to measure the fluid conductivity, wherein the water void fraction is derived from the fluid conductivity.
