Abstract
These measurement devices are each provided with: irradiation unit that irradiate a fluid with light; a light-receiving unit that receives light scattered by the fluid; an acquiring unit that acquires fluid information which indicates the flow rate or the flow velocity of the fluid; and a control unit that controls the irradiation unit on the basis of the fluid information.
Claims9
1-8. (canceled)
A measuring apparatus comprising:
- a first irradiating device configured to apply light to a fluid;
- a first light receiving device configured to receive light scattered by the fluid, out of the light applied by said first irradiating device, and configured to output a first output signal;
- an obtaining device configured to obtain fluid information, which indicates a flow volume or a flow velocity of the fluid, on the basis of the first output signal of said first light receiving device;
- and
- a controlling device configured to control said first irradiating device, on the basis of the fluid information.
A measuring method in a measuring apparatus including:
- a first irradiating device configured to apply light to a fluid;
- and a first light receiving device configured to receive light scattered by the fluid, out of the light applied by the first irradiating device, and configured to output a first output signal, said measuring method comprising:
- an obtaining process of obtaining fluid information, which indicates a flow volume or a flow velocity of the fluid, on the basis of the first output signal of the first light receiving device;
- and
- a controlling process of controlling the first irradiating device, on the basis of the fluid information.
A non-transitory computer readable medium recording a computer program for making a computer, which is provided in a measuring apparatus including:
- a first irradiating device configured to apply light to a fluid;
- and a first light receiving device configured to receive light scattered by the fluid, out of the light applied by the first irradiating device, and configured to output a first output signal, function as:
- an obtaining device configured to obtain fluid information, which indicates a flow volume or a flow velocity of the fluid, on the basis of the first output signal of the first light receiving device;
- and
- a controlling device configured to control the first irradiating device, on the basis of the fluid information.
