Abstract
A multi electrode sensor that provides in-situ, real time measurements for molten salts and other process fluids such as real-time concentration and salt level measurements for nuclear systems such as molten salt reactors, nuclear reprocessing facilities utilizing molten salts and concentrated solar power systems. The sensor has multiple electrodes with unique lengths which are connected to a potentiostat. Measurements are taken when the electrodes are immersed in the process fluid.
