ICE FRACTION SENSOR

摘要

The present invention provides an optical ice fraction sensor which comprises a flow path in which an ice-containing medium can flow, an optical emitter and an optical receiver. In use, a light path extends between the emitter and receiver and at least a portion of the light path is parallel to the flow path. The ice fraction sensor can be used for measuring or monitoring the ice fraction of an ice-containing medium present in the flow path. A method of measuring or monitoring the ice fraction of an ice-containing medium within a flow path is also provided.
