Description

In industrial process plants, radioisotopes have been widely used to examine the spatial distribution, mixing characteristics, and flow pattern of process media. However, it is still a great challenge to acquire a reliable result for imaging a multiphase flow in a refinery and petrochemical plant on a real-time. Legoupil et al. proposed an industrial single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) to image the flow distributions of a process system. The SPECT system has the advantage of a real-time estimation and analysis of flow distribution. In this study, to evaluate the effect of the number of detectors on image quality in industrial SPECT, several different geometries were simulated by the Monte Carlo method
