A fluid dynamic gauging device for measuring biofilm thickness on cylindrical surfaces

Many industrial processes are susceptible to biofouling. The thickness and structure of such biofilms arekey factors in the design of effective cleaning strategies. A novel method based on fluid dynamic gauginghas been developed for measuring the thickness and the shear stress needed for removal of...
