ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The relative amounts of liquid phase versus vapor phase of a mixed phase nonconductive fluid such as oil or fuel, or the relative amounts of solids versus gas of a mixed flow of non- conductive particles and gas such as pneumatically conveyed plas- tic pellets and other material is determined by capacitive measure- ment taken in several distributed directions overlapping within the cross section of a flow path by providing a rotating electric field therein with an alternating voltage on the order of 10-100 kilohertz, with capacitive measurement produced by the rotated field being proportional to the liquid or solid fraction (and by subtraction from unity, vapor or gas fraction). the rotating ele- trical field being produced by sequentially rotating the electric- al position of six plates equally spaced around the periphery of the cross section to be measured, the plate structure and insula- tions defining a flow measuring cross section or being spaced on the outer periphery of a nonconductive flow tube with allowance for rigors of flow conditions and fluid environment to provide reliable, long life.
