Monitoring system for detecting cavitation intensity

摘要

The monitor has cavitation sensors mounted on the monitored device and connected to an electronic computer unit (9). A device (10,11) which generates a reference signal is mounted on the monitored device. The computer unit compensates for unknown influencing parameters in the transmission path by using the variations n the received reference signal. The cavitation and reference signals can be received by one sensor (8). The cavitation and reference signals can be received simultaneously and the subsequent signal evaluation takes direct account of the current signal transmission conditions. The corrected cavitation signal drives a display (12), a warning device (13) and control or regulation device (14).
