Abstract

Electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) is a relatively mature non-invasively imaging technique that attempts to map dielectric permittivity of materials. Recently, 3D ECT has gained interest because of its potential to generate volumetric images. In this paper, two kinds of 3D capacitance imaging sensors with 12 electrodes are researched by Finite Element simulation. The effect of rotation of the electrodes on the sensor output, sensitivity distributions and image reconstruction is studied. Based on comparative analysis, better sensor structure are determined.
