    摘要: A salinity sensor for sensing or measuring salinity of a static or flowing fluid without contacting the fluid includes magnetic coil with a gapped core and a conduit for the fluid positioned in the gap in the core. The magnetic coil and the portion of the magnetic field produced by the coil that extends through the fluid in the gap are part of an LC or LCR circuit that can be driven to resonant frequency for a fluid of known salinity, which may include, but is not limited to, a fluid having zero salinity, as indicated by a peak output voltage on the circuit. Then, when the salinity of the fluid in the gap changes or a fluid with a different salinity is placed in the gap, the characteristics of the LC or LCR circuit, including inductance L and resonant frequency, change, and such changes can be detected and measured as an indication of the salinity of the fluid in the gap.
