Abstract:
This work presents an ultrasound-based inline sensor system, which is used to monitor the alcoholic yeast fermentation. The pulse-echo method is used to determine ultrasound velocity (USV) of the sample medium. The major aim of the paper is to highlight the importance of an accurate time-of-flight (TOF) estimation for accurate concentration determination and to present method immanent strategies to fulfill the requirements. An algorithm aiming at a stable and highly accurate TOF estimation in ti...     »
