Abstract
An optical method of monitoring the state of flowing media with low transparency that contain large inclusions based on the phenomenon of refraction is considered. A construction of a laboratory mock-up of a refractometer is implemented for practical realization of the method. A prism in a new design in the form of a trapezoid with conical tips present in the optical part of the refractometer is designed and fabricated. Features of the process of monitoring the state of a flowing medium from the shift of the light–shadow boundary are described. Results of experimental investigations of different media performed on a mock-up of the refractometer are presented.
