发明名称 SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A PROPERTY OF AN OBJECT, AND A VALVE
摘要 A system (100) for determining a property of an object (106) comprises an inducing arrangement (102), a detector (104) and a processor. The inducing arrangement (102) is configured to generate an impulse of fluid and for directing the impulse of fluid towards the object to induce a physical vibration of the object (106). The inducing arrangement (102) does not contact the object 106 when inducing the physical vibration of the object (106). The detector (104) is configured to detect the physical vibration of the object (106). The detector (104) does not contact the object 106 when detecting the physical vibration of the object (106). The processor is coupled to the detector (104) for determining the property of the object (106) based on at least the detected physical vibration.

主权项 1. A system for determining a property of an object, the system comprising: an inducing arrangement for generating an impulse of fluid having a duration of less than about 5 milliseconds and for directing the impulse of fluid towards the object to induce a physical vibration of the object, wherein the inducing arrangement does not contact the object when inducing the vibration of the object; a detector for detecting the physical vibration of the object, wherein the detector does not contact the object when detecting the physical vibration of the object; and a processor coupled to the detector for determining the property of the object based on at least the detected physical vibration.
