- a first method which relies on the difference in the electrical properties of the constituents of the multiphase fluid which flows inside the pipeline. It is thus possible to carry out measurements of the capacity, inductance or conductivity of the fluid, with a view to detecting the instability of the multiphase flow and, in particular, the appearance of liquid plugs, insofar as the dielectric characteristics between the gas and liquid pockets are very different.
- a device based on the technique of impedance imaging which consists in studying the response of the fluid to an alternating low voltage electrical excitation.
- Such a system comprises an excitation electrode sending a current and a series of measurement electrodes making it possible to know the distribution of the collected currents. Such a distribution reflects the way in which the current lines pass through the liquid and bypass the gas which is less good conductor than the liquid. It is thus possible to obtain a true flow map.
- the object of the invention therefore aims to satisfy this need by proposing a non-intrusive method for characterizing the flow disturbances of a fluid inside a cylindrical pipe.
- the method consists in determining the flow disturbances, to be used as the first indicator, the variation in fluid pressure: - by placing around the pipe, at least one clamp provided with at least one deformation sensor sensitive to the deformations that the pipe undergoes following the variations in fluid pressure,

It thus appears that the elongation measured by the sensor on the external generator of the pipe 2 is proportional to the diameter of the pipe multiplied by the difference between the pressure inside and outside the pipe, divided by twice the thickness of the pipe wall 2.
- the deformation sensor (s) 6 are connected by a link 7 to measuring and processing means 8 making it possible to determine the variations in pressure of the fluid inside the pipe 2 from measurements of variations in deformation detected by each deformation sensor 6.
