A new adaptive TMS variable area flow meter that is used to the environment measuring equipment is proposed. This system is consist of a ball moving within the tube line which corresponds to gas flow and photo sensor array which monitoring the movement of ball. This system can monitoring the position of bali in case of the very few gas flow in various levels. And it can automatically adjust the gas flow at the highest and the lowest level to prevent the tube line blockage.

Considering the water quality regulation of total emission system which is enforced with hydro TMS and so on operating currently, automatic water sampler must be necessary in the viewpoint of national interest for conservation of water resources. This study aimed to develope automatic water sampler for the purpose of decreasing spends on foreign currency which is relied on import from abroad and upgrading the functional efficiency simultaneously. We have made an effort for developing results as follows with some cases. First, flow meter with a sensor equiped into automatic water sampler for field measurement which can perform linkage operation was developed. Second, remote-D/L system was developed which was able to monitor and store some transmitted data from practical measurement sensor. Also, automatic water sampler was developed in this research that operates in a sewage treatment plant, and finally, we confirmed that our system is able to apply to the field well.

In this paper, a hardware implementation of gas flow meter for accuracy improvement and saving repair costs at a field is investigated. An adaptive filter using LMS algorithms for estimating cavity vibration frequencies in noisy environments is also studied. The proposed cavity gas flow meter measures cavity sound signals in gas flow tube using microphone and signal processing systems estimate the cavity vibration frequency from the measured signal. The flow velocity and flow quantity can be calculated using the estimated cavity vibration frequency. Since cavity vibration frequency is corrupted by the environmental noise, an adaptive filter using NLMS algorithms is used for cancelling the environmental noise. Experiments using 1MS32OC32 digital signal processor are performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed system.

Frequency of cavity vibration in air flowing tube is closely related to a velocity of air. In this research, an instrumentation system to estimate frequency of cavity vibration for measurement of the velocity and quantity of a moving fluid is implemented by using DSP TMS320C32. Measurement of the generated sound wave frequency in cavity is difficult because of environmental noise. Adaptive filters are used to eliminate this noise effectively. The estimated velocity and quantity of a moving fluid by proposed system is compared with the results measured by a standard flow meter.
